It was reported that Kyari is standing trial on cocaine-related charges alongside four members of his former Police Unit, the Intelligence Response Unit (IRU), and two other persons arrested at the Akanu Ibiam International Airport in Enugu State in January 2022.

The NDLEA had accused Kyari of working with a drug cartel in Brazil.

Newsmen on Monday quoted  a senior Justice Ministry Official as saying:

“The AGF has endorsed the request by the NDLEA seeking approval for the confiscation of the assets of Abba Kyari, Ubua and the other police officers involved in drug dealing.

“With the approval, the drug agency can now go after their property such as real estate, bank accounts, cash, vehicles, stocks, bonds and anything of monetary value.”

Apart from the NDLEA episode, Kyari is also enmeshed in scam deals involving Ramon Abbas, commonly known as Hushpuppi, leading to him being wanted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
