Court Dismisses Kyari’s Application

A Federal High Court, Abuja, has dismissed an application filed by suspended Abba Kyari seeking an order dismissing the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA’s charge against him.

Delivering judgement, the presiding Judge, Emeka Nwite, held that the court had the exclusive right and jurisdiction to hear drug-related cases as enshrined in the constitution and the NDLEA Act.

Justice Nwite had, on Jan. 18, adjourned for ruling in the application filed by Kyari and three other co-defendants in the suit bordering on a drug offence.
