Former Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kayri has been replaced with DCP Tunji Disu as the new Head of the Police Intelligence Response Team.

Abba Kayri removal and suspension from the entire operations of the Nigeria Police Force is sequel to the confessional and documented facts of internet fraud allegedly committed by Ramon Abbas alias Hushpuppi which indicted the former police officer.

Court in the United States of America declared the former police officer wanted and the police authority suspended him to pave way for proper review of the relevant documents submitted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, FBI.
