Nigeria’s attorney general and minister of justice, Abubakar Malami, has described as false the media reports that his office had conclusively exonerated Abba Kyari.
The clarification was made via a statement by the Special Assistant on Media and Public Relations to the AGF, Dr. Umar Jibrilu Gwandu.
“It was a case of work in progress in respect of which the office of the Attorney General of the federation requested for further probe in relation to some aspects of investigation,” Gwandu said in the statement.
“It was clear that the conclusion on the alleged contradiction on the issue was a clear case of misconception.
“The office of the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice’s stance is that no conclusion has been reached in the direction of absence of evidence relating to the first report.
“The issues were raised for further investigation with a view to cover the field in the investigation in order to arrived at informed decision.”
