A military officer connected with the $2.1bn arms deal probe being conducted by the EFCC was on Tuesday arrested at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, on his way out of the country.
Air Vice Marshal R.A. Ojuawo, of the Nigerian Air Force was arrested while accompanying the Chief of Defence Staff, Gen. Gabriel Olonisakin, to a meeting of the United States Africa Command in Germany on Sunday.
He was quizzed with ex Defence Chief Alex Badeh but was released later on. People in the NAF said Ojuawo was the Director of Operations when Badeh was the Chief of Air Staff.
However the Director of Information, Defence Headquarters, Brig.-Gen. Rabe Abubakar, said he was not aware of such incident. EFCC spokesperson Wilson Uwjare also said he wasn't aware of the development.
