The Nigeria Police yesterday
declared wanted, Chairman of the Pension Reform Task Team (PRTT), Abdulrasheed
Maina, following an arrest warrant issued few weeks ago by the Senate
President, David Mark.
Deputy Force Public Relations
Officer, Frank Mba, in a statement which was made available in Abuja said the action became necessary as a result of the failure of Mr.
Maina to appear before Senate Joint Committee on the Investigation of Pension
Funds.
“The Nigeria Police Force hereby
declares wanted, this 1st day of February, 2013, Alhaji Abdulrasheed Maina of
the Customs, Immigration and Prisons Pension Office (CIPPO), for failing to
appear before the Senate Joint Committee on the Investigation of Pension
Funds”, the police said.
It would be recalled that the Senate
of the Federal Republic of Nigeria had on 13th December, 2012, issued a Warrant
of Arrest, mandating the Inspector- General of Police to arrest and produce
Alhaji Maina before the Senate Joint Committee on the Investigation of Pension
Fund. Since then, according to the police, Maina had gone into hiding, making
it difficult for the Police to execute the warrant.
“Consequently, the Inspector-General
of Police has directed all AIGs in-charge of Zonal Commands and State Commands
Commissioners of Police to spread their dragnets to all nooks-andcrannies of
their respective areas of jurisdiction, in search of Alhaji Maina. He has also
directed all operatives of Federal Intelligence Bureau (FIB), Force and State
CID to join the manhunt.
“The IGP wishes to appeal to
well-meaning citizens and the general public with useful information on the
whereabouts of Alhaji Abdulrasheed Maina, to kindly volunteer such information
to the nearest Police Station, Formation or email: policemonitor@ npf.gov.ng,
for necessary action”, the statement added.
