Alex Badeh’s Encounter With EFCC May Run Through The Night

There are indications today that the interactions between former Chief of Defence Staff, Air Chief Marshall Alex Badeh and operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, (EFCC), may continue throughout the night, resulting in his spending the night at the commission today.
It was gathered that the issues for which the anti graft agency is seeking clarification from  the former CDS could not be exhausted at just one sitting, thereby prolonging the interaction.
Badeh  who has been at the anti graft agency’s office clarifying issues related to alleged inappropriate procurements of arms for soldiers fighting Boko Haram under his watch, was asked to report back to the EFCC today, Monday, when the commission could not finalise logistics for his interview with their men  Wednesday last week.
It was learnt that already, his interrogators have informed him that he might stay at the commission’s office overnight to continue the interaction.
News had filtered in Sunday that there were plans to embarrass the former CDS, during his appearance at the EFCC premises today even though it was not immediately clear if asking him to stay the night was not unconnected with the reported moves.
Badeh had earlier today, arrived at the EFCC headquarters in company of some of his associates and domestic staff and was immediately ushered into a waiting room where officers from the agency were already waiting. The interrogation was said to have commenced almost immediately. [myad]
