Reacting to reports that Kyari narrowly escaped death as some inmates attempted to attack him, the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS) said that the former Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari was safe in custody as there was no threat to his life.
The Service Public Relations Officer (SPRO) Mr Francis Enobore said this in a statement on Thursday in Abuja.
Francis Enobore said that it was necessary to address the issue following a publication by an online media organisation alleging Kyari was attacked by his fellow inmates.
According to him, the fake news peddler further stated that the authorities of the Service was considering transferring Kyari to DSS custody.
He said “the story is false, reckless and mischievous.
“It is the handiwork of some jobless cheap recognition-seeking charlatans masquerading as newsmen, lacking in intellectual capacity to interrogate what they conjure or hear before feeding the public.
That the author is completely oblivious of where and how detention of a suspect originates speaks volume of his ineptitude and the much his story can be relied upon.
“For the record, Abba Kyari is one of the over 800 inmates in the location where he is being kept.
