The Coalition of South East Youth Leaders, COSEYL, says the disgraced Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari, killed many innocent youths in Imo State.
Goodluck Ibem, president-general of the coalition said Nigerians had ignored the outcry of the Southeastern youths on extrajudicial killings by the police, adding that youths in the region have been vindicated.
Ibem said, “Before now, we had raised the alarm that DCP Abba Kyari was extrajudicially killing innocent Nigerian youths but the authority didn’t believe them, however, the credible intelligence conducted by NDLEA that led to his arrest, has vindicated us the Southeast youths”.
“We call on the Police Service Commission, PSC, and other relevant agencies saddled with the responsibility of dealing with erring police officers to probe all extrajudicial killings by Abba Kyari and other crimes he may have committed in the course of his service in Nigeria and other parts of the country.
“When Abba Kyari was deployed to Imo State to lead the IGP Response Team, he was very busy killing innocent Nigerian youths for gallantry and using the media to gain cheap popularity and posing as a hero which he is not.
“He has just proved to Nigerians that all this while, he was living a deceitful life and deceiving the general public. The so-called gallantry service he made us to believe was just to distract Nigerians from knowing his real person,” the statement added.
