Arms Deal: I Bought Abuja House for Badeh - Witness

A witness, Kabiru Salau, in the ongoing trial of a former Chief of Defence Staff, CDS, Air Chief Marshal Alex S. Badeh, on Wednesday, June 29, 2016 told Justice Okon Abang of the Federal High Court sitting in Maitama, Abuja that he was involved in the purchase of the Abuja house for the erstwhile army chief while receiving payments from accounts of the Nigerian Air Force, NAF.
