BREAKING: 3 months after jumping bail, EFCC returns Maina to court

Oluwaseye Ogunsanya December 4, 2020 32


Background
share close

Weeks after he jumped bail and went into hiding in Niger Republic, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has brought Abdulrasheed Maina before a federal high court in Abuja.

Maina who was the former chairman of the defunct Pension Reform Task Team (PRTT), is on trial for alleged money laundering to the tune of N2 billion but he stopped attending proceedings in September setting his surety, Ali Ndume, a senator from Borno south against the law.

Justice Okon Abang, judge of the trial court, revoked Maina’s bail and remanded his surety in prison.

However, Justice Abang later granted Ndume bail on account of ”good behaviour”. He later continued Maina’s trial in absentia.

On Monday, Maina was arrested in Niger Republic where he had took refuge, and was extradited to Nigeria on Thursday.
