The minister noted that though investigations were still ongoing, he however declared that there are enough grounds to extradite DCP Kyari to the U.S.<\/p>\n
His words: \u201cThere are lots of considerations that are ongoing, including the possibility of extradition. That is why the collaboration element comes in. There could be a need for extradition.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs far as I am concerned, parties are discussing; we are collaborating and there are exchanges of correspondence. Reasonable ground of suspicion has been established and that will eventually translate into prosecution and eventual conviction.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe position now is that there are prima facie grounds, reasonable grounds for suspicion have been considered from the perspective of prosecution, from the perspective of extradition if the need for it arises.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kyari was allegedly indicted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in an alleged mult-million naira advanced fee fraud perpetrated by Hushpuppi.<\/p>\n
