EFCC returns $2.15m hospital seized from Amosu to Air Force.

Former Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal ADESOLA AMOSU

A hospital with medical equipment worth about $2.15m which was seized from a former Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal ADESOLA AMOSU has been handed over to the Nigerian Air Force.

The hospital which is located on Adeniyi Jones Avenue, Ikeja, Lagos, is said to have state-of-the-art equipment including a Magnetic Resonance Imaging machine which costs well over $1m.

A reliable source at the EFCC said that the anti-graft agency could not manage the property and therefore decided to hand it over to the Nigerian Air Force medical unit.

AMOSU and some top Air force officers are currently standing trial before a Federal High Court for allegedly stealing N22.8bn from the coffers of the Nigerian Air Force between 2014 and 2015.
