The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission said it had discovered two properties which a former Chief of Air Staff, Air Vice Marshall Adesola Amosu (retd.), illegally acquired in the United Kingdom with funds that he allegedly diverted from the coffers of the Nigerian Air Force.
The anti-graft agency told the Federal High Court in Lagos on Tuesday that investigation by its operatives revealed that Amosu purchased the foreign properties with the help of a Bureau De Change company, Right Option Oil and Gas.
The former NAF helmsman, according to the EFCC, removed over N600m from NAF’s operations account and sent it to Right Option Oil and Gas, which in turn converted it to $3m to purchase two properties for Amosu in the UK.
