The last attack, according to the report, occurred on May 4. The attackers numbering about 190 are mostly in prison for drug-related offences. The inmates who attempted to kill Kyari claimed the disgraced super cop prosecuted them despite taking bribes from them. One of the sources revealed that a state investigator and intelligence officer, described Kyari as a “dodgy criminal.” Quoting the inmates, one of the sources said Mr Kyari was “eliminating smaller (drug) dealers to clear the field for Afam Ukatu,” a suspected billionaire drug baron allegedly behind N3 billion Tramadol deal linked to Mr Kyari.

“Inmates claimed that upon arrest, Abba Kyari demanded bribes to kill the case, then still prosecuted them,” a Kuje prison source who accessed the testimonies of the aggrieved inmates, said. It was gathered that Kyari had to pay each of the aggrieved inmates N200,000 ‘in initial settlement fees’ and then ‘procured DSTV subscription for cells to buy loyalty and peace,’ one source said. Despite this, the aggrieved inmates have continued to threaten Kyari’s life, the sources said. An official recommendation has therefore been made that Kyari should be transferred out of Kuje to an SSS facility.
