The Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami has denied
having any involvement in the reinstatement of the former chairman of
the Presidential Task Force on Pension Reforms, Abdulrasheed Maina.
He said the letter giving clear directives on the reinstatement of
the former chairman, couldn’t have genuinely emanated from his office.
He made this known when the House of Representatives ad-hoc

The AGF and the Minister of Justice also alleged that there is an
existing pension fraud syndicate made up of politicians, legislators,
retired civil servants.
According to them, Maina was part of the syndicate and had a fall
out with them and now the group is working hard to ensure that their
activities are not exposed.
The Head of Service of the federation, Mrs. Winfred Oyo Ita has
insisted that there was a letter from the AGF to the Federal Civil
Service Commission directing Maina’s reinstatement.
Similarly, the Minister of Interior, Gen. Abdularaman Danbazzua
dissociated himself and his ministry from Miana’s entire saga, saying
that “the Ministry had no hand in the matter”.
Present at today's hearing were: the Minister of Justice, Abubakar
Malami; the Minister of Interior, Abdulrahman Bello Dambazau; the Head
of Service, Winifred E. Oyo-Ita; and a representative of the Inspector
General of Police.
