Residents of Borno State have issued a heartfelt plea to the Federal Government, urging for the release of Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Abba Kyari, following the passing of his mother. Kyari, who has been held in detention for over a year on allegations of corruption, has garnered support from locals who perceive his prolonged incarceration as unjust.
Baba Gana Kyari, an indigene of the state, expressed the community’s sentiment, calling upon the government to grant Kyari bail. He emphasized the widespread disapproval of Kyari’s extended detention, citing his notable contributions to the nation and the state of Borno.
Highlighting Kyari’s exemplary service to Nigeria, Baba Gana recounted Kyari’s pivotal role in thwarting suicide bombings and apprehending terrorists responsible for heinous acts of violence in Borno State. He lauded Kyari as a hero and a legend, asserting the community’s unwavering commitment to compensating him for his service.
Similarly, another resident, Alli Mohammed, echoed sentiments of support for Kyari, questioning the rationale behind his continued detention. Mohammed affirmed Kyari’s reputation as a virtuous individual and advocated for his recognition as a hero upon his release.
The resounding consensus among Borno residents reflects a deep-seated belief in Kyari’s integrity and dedication to public service. As the community awaits a favorable response from the Federal Government, their solidarity with Kyari underscores the profound impact of his contributions to the region and the nation at large.
