Nigeria’s Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami (SAN) has reacted to speculations that he cleared controversial police officer, Abba Kyari.
According to Malami, he only recommended further investigation against him.

Recall that Malami was once quoted to have said that there is no “sufficient evidence” that Kyari was involved in the money laundering case he was indicted in by the US Department of Justice.
However making clarification in a statement released by his media aide, Dr Umar Gwandu on Sunday, March 13, Malami said media reports about a contradiction in his stance on the matter show a misunderstanding and misconception of the issue.
He said;
“The office of the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice’s stance is that no conclusion has been reached in the direction of absence of evidence relating to the first report.
“The issues were raised for further investigation with a view to cover the field in investigation with a view to arrive at an informed decision.”
