Maina goes underground

The order by President Buhari for his immediate sack and the resolve by EFCC to fish him out by all means to face justice might have forced Maina, who was declared wanted by the EFCC in 2015, to go underground apparently to avoid being apprehended.
Checks in the Ministry of Interior, where he had been promoted to an acting director in charge of Human Resources vide a letter dated October 2, 2017, showed that he did not report to that office to join other workers as work resumed, yesterday. The Spokesman for the Interior Ministry, Mr.Willie Bassey, denied knowledge of Maina’s presence or posting to the ministry but admitted reading about the controversies surrounding his reinstatement and posting to the office.
Apparently, in a bid to ward off public enquiry about his travails, Maina has tactically switched off all his three known GSM lines. A call put to one of the lines yesterday afternoon reported that the line could not take any call at ‘this time’ while the other two indicated that they had all been switched off. Apparently bolstered by the Presidential directive, EFCC operatives, yesterday, stormed one of the mansions which Maina reportedly bought with $2 million while serving as the Chairman of the Presidential Task Force on Pension Reforms in 2012. Armed EFCC operatives descended on the sprawling edifice located at No. 10 Hamisu Musa Road, Jabi, and marked it ‘EFCC Keep Off.’ The mansion had earlier been marked by the EFCC, but Maina erased the marking.
It was learned that many other property said to have been acquired by Maina were being identified by the anti-graft agency for possible forfeiture to the federal government. The Spokesman for the EFCC, Mr. Wilson Uwujaren, confirmed the renewed efforts by the agency to fish out Maina to account for his actions.
