Maina’s Recall Letter ‘Didn’t Emanate From My Office’ – AGF Malami

The Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, has claimed that the letter addressed to the Office of the Head of Service demanding the recall of the former chairman of presidential pension task team, Abdulrasheed Maina, emanated from his office.

Recall that there were reports that a letter was sent from the office of the AGF to the HoS directing that the former pension boss who has been allegedly declared wanted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission over an alleged N2bn fraud, be reinstated into the civil service and given the position of director in the Ministry of Interior.

According to Malami, the last letter he “remembered” was dated January 19, 2017 and was meant to bring attention to all that was happening to Mr Maina.

He said “as at February 21, 2017, the letter giving clear directives of his reinstatement couldn’t have genuinely emanated from my office”.
