Wanted civil servant AbdulRasheed Maina bought
a $2 million house in Abuja, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission
(EFCC) has claimed.
The mansion was allegedly acquired by Maina
when he was the chairman of the controversial Presidential Task Force Team on
Pension Reforms.
Maina also has a 24-charge case pending before
a Federal high Court. He has been reinstated as director, an action that has
sparked a big row over the anti-graft war.
Maina was declared wanted by the EFCC in
November 2015 for alleged fraud. The EFCC reported him to the International
Police (INTERPOL).
He resurfaced this month as an acting director
in the Ministry of Interior.
An EFCC fact-sheet shows that Maina was under
probe for multiple allegations, including fraudulent biometric contracts, which
resulted in the mismanagement of over N2billion of pension funds and
acquisition of choice mansions in Abuja.
According to the document, an investigative
team led by Habibu Aliyu, an EFCC official, uncovered how Maina paid $2million
for a property at 10, Amisi Musa Street in Jabi Lake, Abuja.
