Maina Is hiding To protect his life - Aide

An aide of the embattled former Chairman of the now rested Presidential Task Force on Pension Reform, Mr. Abdulrasheed Maina, Olajide Fasakin, on Wednesday said his boss was in hiding to avoid being killed.

Fasakin, who claimed some people were after his principal’s life, said several times during the administration of Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, they had attempted to assassinate him.

He stated this on Wednesday while on featuring on a National  Television. 

He  stressed  that he did not know the whereabouts of the embattled former pension reform chairman.

When asked whether Maina would come out if the Senate promised to protect him, the aide said it was not advisable for his boss to come out.

He said, “I would not advise him to come out because there was a petition against some members of the seventh Senate for having collected N3bn from some pension thieves.

“The petition is with the ICPC and the EFCC, we haven’t got the report up to this moment.

“The only way out, most likely, would have been for Mr. President, in his position as the President of the country, to inaugurate a commission of enquiry like Justice Chukwudifu Oputa Panel, do all the activities on the television, then we would advise him to come out.”
