He jokingly suggested to Kyari to pretend not to have eaten after having a meal.

His words:

"Kyari should not refused to eat. He should just eat. Nigerian Cells have no sympathy for hunger strike. Na so we too eat whenever we fall inside there. But after eating,you can just pretend you no eat."

More details of 'super cop's' dealings with drug trafficking

Meanwhile, barely 48 hours after the NDLEA declared Kyari wanted, more information on the probe has emerged.

The NDLEA contrary to claims in some quarters that the previously perceived super cop would go scotfree said no stone would be left unturned in the investigation and prosecution of the matter.

The NDLEA said there would be no cover-up for anyone involved in the drug trafficking deal, irrespective of their class or status in society.
