The Former Managing Director of Nigerian Army Properties, Major General Umar M. Mohammed, has been found guilty of forgery and looting of millions of United States Dollars belonging to the Nigerian Army.

Mohammed, who stood trial at the Army court martial held at the Command Officers Mess 1, in Asokoro, in FCT Abuja, yesterday, October 4, was charged for forgery and stealing among various crimes.

The head of the court, Major General James Myam, had announced that Mohammed would be tried on an 18-count charge.

He had been indicted by a military police investigation and approved for trial, was previously refused bail by the court because of the huge sum of money reportedly stolen by the officer as it could encourage him to flee.

The accused’s legal team comprises of two Senior Advocates of Nigeria–SANs and six lawyers, including a retired military officer.

Myam and his eight-man panel while reading out the charges had found him guilty of stealing, forgery, conspiracy and embezzlement of funds.

Mohammed had been found guilty of a theft of $430,800–it being cash paid into Nigerian Army Domiciliary account at Unity Bank, Abuja for the use of the Nigerian Army Jetty, Marina, VI, Lagos.

Moreover, he was found guilty of removing and confiscating the sum of N74 million out of N75 million fund that had paid for a property belonging to the Nigerian Army at Ikoyi, Lagos.

Mohammed’s sentencing has been scheduled for next week Tuesday, October 10.

Mohammed had been brought into the court in a wheel chair during the court martial but the President of the court had dismissed the attempt, saying that all necessary medical checks had been carried out on the accused and the results had proved that he was fit to stand trial.

Mohammed had however, not been found guilty of the charge of forging a Deed of Agreement document pursuant to seizing another Army possession in Lagos State.
