Samuel O Zibri SAN, counsel to the embattled former Chief of Defence Staff, Air Chief Marshal Alex S. Badeh rtd, has denied media reports that $1,000,000 cash was recovered by the EFCC from the home of his client.
In a statement he issued yesterday, Zibri said:
“The said publication is not only malicious but wicked. It is totally false and smacks of media campaign of calumny against the person of Air Marshal Alex. A Badeh (rtd).
“The 10-count charge against our client along with the proof of evidence in the Federal High Court are public documents and can be accessed by the general public.
“There is no such allegation and we challenge the faceless EFCC (Economic and Financial Crimes Commission) official to substantiate his claim.
“The trial has commenced and as a law-abiding citizen, our client will defend himself in accordance with the law."
