INTERPOL Gets Involved In Maina Saga, Fresh Warrants Issued For His Arrest

The Presidency said an Abuja Magistrate’s Court as well as the international police popularly called the INTERPOL had issued fresh warrants for the arrest of the embattled former Chairman of the defunct Presidential Task Force on Pension Reforms, Mr. Abdulrasheed Maina.
 Maina’s investigation has been expanded. This is beyond reinstatement. It has gone beyond that.
“You know that the INTERPOL has just issued an international warrant on him. A Nigerian court has
also issued yet another warrant of arrest.
The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, disclosed this in an interview with Punch on Thursday.
He said Maina’s investigation had been extended beyond his reinstatement and subsequent posting.
The spokesman said:
 All those cases involving Steve Oronsaye (ex-Head of the Civil Service) that are ongoing, you know Maina is also involved. Law enforcement agencies are looking at that too.
You are also aware that the Senate is also carrying out its own investigation on the matter.
The matter is being investigated from all fronts. The EFCC, for example, is discovering more and more properties and its officials are sealing them. They are also looking at banks and all that.
In fact, this investigation will also touch some foreign countries.
Shehu said the security agencies, including the Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami (SAN), were making presentations to the President on the matter.
He, however, said the President had yet to say the final word on the matter because he wanted to be fair to all the reports.
