Photos Of Ex-CDS Alex Badeh In Court Today

A Federal High Court in Abuja today ordered former chief of defence staff, Air Marshal Alex Badeh, remanded in Kuje Prison until Thursday, when his bail application will be heard. The court has also fixed 14 March for the beginning of his trial...


Mr. Badeh was arraigned in court earlier today for corruptly enriching himself with Nigerian Airforce defense funds to the tune of N4 billion. Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) claimed they found over 1 million dollars in hidden safes during a search at the home of the former air force general.

Mr. Badeh’s earlier attempt at securing bail was struck out by the judge who said the bail application had come before charges were filed. The case has been adjourned until March 14 for bail consideration.
