Double Awards For Super Cop, Abba Kyari
Christopher Orji former national president of Crime
Reporters Association of Nigeria (CRAN) and a Journalist with the Sun Newspaper
literarily hushed Lagos for the sake of award winning policeman, Assistant
Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari at the Lagos @50 Hall of Fame Awards
organised by TechTV in Lagos.
Chris who stood in for members of crime reporting guild,
having made the city of Lagos keep quiet for as long as his speech lasted,
poured an unprecedented amount of encomium on Kyari.
The reporter of over twenty years’ experience said that it
was Abba that transformed Lagos into a near crime free state.
He must have made the super cop, who looked calm and
unperturbed by praise, blush severally.
The former president of CRAN at the event recalled instances
where Abba had trace suspects to as far as Nigeria’s neighboring countries.
Chris mentioned the case of a notorious armed robber and
kingpin of a deadly gang that terrorized Lagos for over fourteen years.
“It was ACP Abba Kyari
that put an end to that guy’s adventures after many years that the police
without him couldn’t apprehend.
“Abba is a cop that would
tell you want he would do, to get a criminal before the law, and that he would
definitely do. We don’t know how he does it but for sure we know he does it at
last, “Chris said.
He reminded Abba that the
government of Lagos state and its governor Akinwumi Ambode are always ready to
welcome him back to Lagos.
Abba Kyari was the only
recipient with two awards: Excellence in Security Service, and Outstanding
Young Efficient Security Officer of the Year.
Kyari was the brain behind
the recent arrest of five members of the notorious gang of kidnappers and
robbers that had turned Ikorodu and its environment topsy-turvy.
The gang was nabbed by a
team supervised by Kyari while they were about to rob five banks in Ikorodu and
Lekki, in Lagos.
