Buhari Approved My Meeting With Malami –Embattled Maina Claims

The embattled former chairman of the defunct Pension Reform Task Team , Abdulrasheed Maina , says he helped President Muhammadu Buhari recover N 1.3 tn in January.
Maina, who is wanted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, said this in a video sent to Channels Television. He further claimed that while he was out of the country , the Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami (SAN), paid him a visit during which he (Maina ) told Malami about the N 1.3trn.
"When this government came in, the President ( Buhari Muhammadu ) gave the nod that ‘go and sit down with Maina, I’ve given you the approval. "They sat down with me after the security agencies had cleared me. Nobody has ever taken me to court in Nigeria, I want Nigerians to know; I have never been taken to any court of law. I have sued all the security agencies that they are talking about and I have won, I have four court judgments .”
Maina said, "As soon as this current government decided to sit with me, after the meeting, I told them that I would not allow them to return to Nigeria without giving them a gift. I told them I will give them something and the Minister of Justice (Malami ) laughed and he asked what the gift was.
"I gave him a document and said go here and here; that there is N 1. 3tn which they want to steal because they have been stealing every year. He was shocked and said it wasn't possible but I told him that sir, with all due respect , could you try what I said?

"The minister thought it wasn't possible but when he got back, he realised that I gave him the correct information. "The former PRTT boss urged President Muhammadu Buhari to give him some form of immunity which would allow him to appear before the National Assembly without being arrested.

He said if he testified in public, many secrets would be revealed. Maina said some of the people working for the President were insincere and not telling the truth. The former PRTT boss said,“People around the President portray themselves as saints but it is a lie . My team recovered N 282 bn in cash, aside that, we were able to bring information that led to the arrest of 43 pension suspects . N 1 .6 tn cash investment and properties were recovered.

"They have threatened my brothers , sisters and even my lawyer . They said I would be killed . They said my family would be annihilated if I testify. I have asked the President specifically that if he wants to know the truth and wants to be fair to the nation , he should give me the opportunity to present evidence. "I am appealing to Mr . President.

"There are so many things that people are not telling you . If I get to that hearing , I will tell you some things that no one has ever told you because I have not had the opportunity to sit down with you and I am telling Mr President that I will give you information and documents that will help you recover over N 3 tn now in Nigeria .”
