My hands are clean' -- DCP Abba Kyari denies Huspuppi bribe allegation

According to US court documents, Huspuppi had alleged that he bribed Kyari to arrest Vincent, a co-fraudster.

Court officials said during interrogation, the Instagram celebrity disclosed that he gave the DCP 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 reaction this morning, Kyari said he never demanded money from Hushpuppi, while stressing that “my hands are clean”.

Although he admitted to knowing about the money-related dispute, the DCP disclosed that it was on the basis of the call that Vincent was arrested.

Kyari also denied that Vincent was ever jailed, adding that he was instead released on bail.

“Abbas who we later came to know as Hushpuppi called our office about 2years ago that somebody in Nigeria Seriously threatened to kill his Family here in Nigeria and he sent the person’s Phone number and pleaded we take action before the Person attacks his family,” he wrote on Instagram.

“We traced and arrested the Suspect and after investigations, we discovered there wasn’t an actual threat to anyone’s life And they are long-time friends who have money issues between them hence we released the Suspect on bail to go and he was not taken to any jail.

“Nobody demanded for a kobo from Abbas Hushpuppi. Our focus was to Save people’s lives that were purported to have been threatened.

“Later, he 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. The Native Clothes and Caps (5 sets) were brought to our office and He sent somebody to Collect them in our office.

“Nobody demanded any money from Abbas Hushpuppi and nobody collected any money from him. We responded to a distress call he made on threat to his family and released the Suspect when we discovered there was no life threat from the Suspect. This is the true story. Vincent is alive, he can be contacted.

“For those who are celebrating that this is an indictment on us and mentioning some fictitious Big Money, They will be disappointed once again as our hands are clean and our record of Service for 2 decades is open for everybody to See. They will continue seeing us serving our father land and we will Continue responding to ALL distress Calls from ALL Nigerians provided they are life-threatening.”

Hushpuppi, whose real name is Ramon Abbas, was arrested in the UAE in June 2020 alongside 11 of his associates over allegations bordering on hacking, impersonation, scamming, banking fraud, and identity theft.

Kizz Daniel, the Nigerian singer, has slammed Tekno over his comment while refuting a claim that he received royalties worth almost N1 billion from their hit song ‘Buga’.

In May 2022, the singers released the song which enjoyed a positive reception.

But a fortnight ago, a blog claimed that they had an interview with Tekno, wherein he said he “got featured on ‘Buga’ with no legal agreement”.

The post also claimed the ‘Pana’ singer “said Kizz Daniel sends him 50 percent of the revenue generated from the song every month”.

It alleged that he “admitted to receiving almost N1 billion from Daniel after his ‘Buga’ tour.

Replying to the post via X, Tekno described the interview as “fake”. He also implied that Kizz Daniel does not have such money to give out.

“Him money no reach. Anybody wey put out that fake interview, thunder fire your mama,” he wrote.

But reacting to the post on Monday, Kizz Daniel slammed Tekno, claiming he resuscitated Tekno’s music career with the hit song ‘Buga’.

“Dem mention money you sef dey talk… spewing shit like anus 🤣🤣 see ekuke way we rescue with BUGA !! 🤣🤣🤣 Oloribu omo ale,” he wrote on X.

In a swift response, Tekno questioned the motives behind Daniel’s tweet. Although he did not mention names, he warned his colleague not to underestimate him.

Tekno’s tweet was widely seen as a direct response to the criticism from Daniel.

“Hope you are trending now fool!
Careful o, breeze blow foul nyash Dey Open, I’m not the one to be played with
Before I Kattwilliams yours A** #insecurenarcissist,” he wrote.

IsraelDMW is sticking up for his boss Davido as he recently took to his Instagram story to heavily slam Wizkid.

Amidst all of the online altercation that has been ongoing between Davido and Wizkid, Israel went on to hit back heavy at Wizkid. He expressed that he used to like everything about Wizkid, thinking he was a human being, but he never knew that he was a completely daft-headed person.

He further questioned Wizkid on his continuous jealousy and hatred towards Davido. He questioned him if Davido had ever stopped him from releasing his own sweet hits, as he stated that Davido has never in any way said anything bad about him.

He advised Wizkid to retire from music if he was fed up and that he should resign honorably instead of resigning in a messy way.

Taking it a notch further, he proceeded to ask Wizkid who the hell he is, while expressly stating that Wizkid was nothing but a small dwarf and that he’ll be taught a lesson if he’s not careful.

“luse to like everything about you, thinking you’re a humman being. I never knew you’re a fully daft headed humman being. Why dis continous jealousy and hatredness? Did oga, stop’s you from realesing ur own back to back sweet hits?

He has never in anytime said anything bad of you at all. You you just keep hating him for nothing sake. Retire from music if you’re fed up. Resign honourably. Who the hell are you? You’re just a small dwarf. You will be thaught a lesson, if you’re not careful. You’re an idiot. A whole Don Baba? Na ur mate?

Ugbeowagbon, Usaloa.”

“They were trying to distract us baby no mind them.”

“WE NOT DELUSIONAL YOU’RE A SICK MAN,” Davido retorted.
