In what appears to be a new twist, suspended Deputy Commissioner of Police Abba Kyari, in a now-deleted post, said Ramon Abbas, popularly known as Hushpuppi contacted his team to help recover N8 million for a friend.

The Nation reports Kyari has been in the eye of the storm after Hushpuppi disclosed he gave Kyari money to arrest and jail “one of his rivals in Nigeria after a dispute over a $1.1 million scam on Qatari businesspeople.”

But in a post on his verified Facebook account, Kyari denied receiving money from Hushpuppi.

Kyari also said later Hushpuppi “saw some of my native clothes and caps on my social media page and he said he likes them and he was connected to the person selling the clothes and he sent about N300k directly to the person’s account”.

But in a new twist, Kyari edited his now-deleted post on Tuesday evening, checks by The Nation shows.

He removed the part where he said Hushpuppi sent N300, 000 for clothes but claimed his office was reached a second time to help recover N8 million.

“Nobody demanded or collected any money from Abbas Hushpuppi. He can be interviewed publicly in the presence of the world media by the people holding him to confirm this,” Kyari wrote in the new post.

“He also called for another case in June 2020 and complained about a financial transaction with a second person whom he said his friend sent N8 million to and pleaded for his friend’s money to be recovered. He sent transaction slips and other evidences to prove their case against the person.

“All these can be verified from the Hushpuppi since he is still in custody. And it can be verified from the person who collected N8 million from Hushpuppi’s friend whom they complained about is alive and is in Nigeria.”
