Hushpuppi: the Instagram influencer and international fraudster - BBC Africa

Ramon Abbas - better known as Hushpuppi to his millions of followers - has pleaded guilty to money laundering in a US court.
The Nigerian social media influencer was famous for his extravagant lifestyle, showing off his designer clothing, luxury holidays, and expensive cars to 2.5million Instagram followers and 1.3 million Snapchat subscribers.
But unknown to his fans, his lifestyle was funded by cybercrime.
Originally from humble beginnings in Lagos, the so-called 'billionaire Gucci master' living a life of luxury in Dubai is now facing a 20-year jail sentence in the USA - and the FBI have dubbed him one of the world's most high-profile money launderers.

Get your facts right , he is not enjoying any protection , we are not a bananna republic no country will extraddite its citizen to to another country just becouse they say so , and most definately not a law enforcement officer . Once his level of involvement (note , I said level of involvement ) it is a for gone conclution that he has been involved with Mr Abbas , its how deep that is now being established while he is under suspention and a replacement has been appointed and in the meantime he has been told to clear out his office meaing you aint coming back . The investigation is over and a querry has been issued to him (Mr Abbaki yari ) once he answers the querry then comes the commission's conclution and recomendation which will not include extradition , after and only after the commission' s conclution and decipline recomentions can extradition proceedings be entertained , as much as i hate this govement , i do not subscribe to extraditing our citizens to other countries (united states or any other country just becouse they say so . And contrary to what you may think , when all is done and dusted Abba kiari will wish he is in the united states by the time the police commission is done dealing with him , go ask Mr Tafa Balogun

Your statement is so ignorant that it's not worth a response, but I'll try.. who is the senior citizens that deem other people as "irrelevant" are you referring to ppl on social security? Or people above a certain age? Or maybe you are referring to senior officials in the US government? We did have a president that was impeached twice, even though he wasn't convicted. The cop that put his knee on George Floyd and killed him, he got a prison sentence, the cop in Dallas that entered the wrong apartment and killed a man because she was too drunk and thought he was in her apartment.. she is in prison. So may be next time, be specific in what you are referring to, so you don't sound dumb Sis. And stop deflecting from Hushpuppi, he stole money that could've gone to buying vents for patients that had respiratory complications due to covid. The dead folks will bed to differ with you.
