Kaduna, Kaduna - The Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF) has taken a swipe on the American Court that allegedly ordered the arrest of DCP Abba Kyari.

Shettima, however, warned that nothing must happen to Kyari, describing the move by the FBI as "totally unacceptable, a slap on the sensibility of our compatriots and a ridicule on one of our finest crack detectives."
No justification for singling out Abba Kyari for castigation
The group said it would keep a tap on the happenings in the matter, stressing that there was no justification for singling out one of Nigeria's most effective and efficient police officers for castigation.
The AYCF, in the statement, urged all Nigerians who are truly patriotic to stand behind a man who has made an unrivalled mark on the sands of time by diligently serving his fatherland.
It also called on relevant stakeholders in the country, especially civil society organizations to rally round the officer who risked his life in multiple operations across Nigeria, a fact proved many times through BBC news coverage of such operations.
AYCF noted:
"While we are conscious of our sovereignty as a nation, we demand justice for a man with unrivalled records of detective capabilities in the recent history of Nigeria."
