Breaking: EFCC declares ex-pension task chief Maina wanted over alleged stolen properties
Breaking: EFCC declares former Pension Reformed Task Team Chairman Abdulrasheed Maina wanted over alleged receipt of stolen properties, per notice signed Wednesday by spokesperson Dele Oyewale. The Commission released Maina's photo and urged public to contact offices nationwide or email [email protected] with information on his whereabouts.
This development comes years after Justice Okon Abang of the Federal High Court in Abuja sentenced Maina to eight years in prison for money laundering and related offences in 2021. Maina had jumped bail in 2020, fled to Niger Republic, was apprehended there in December 2020, and detained awaiting trial before his conviction. The Court of Appeal upheld his sentence in 2023.
Anyone with useful information should contact EFCC offices in Ibadan, Uyo, Sokoto, Maiduguri, Benin, Makurdi, Kaduna, Ilorin, Enugu, Kano, Lagos, Gombe, Port Harcourt or Abuja, or the nearest police station and security agencies. The EFCC emphasized the public's role in aiding apprehension.
