The Chairman of the defunct Pension Reform Task Team, Abdulrasheed Maina, has been apprehended by security operatives in Niger Republic.
PUNCH reports that Maina was arrested by Nigerian Security agencies on Monday.
Maina, who is being prosecuted on 12 counts of money laundering to the tune of N2bn by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, jumped bail, forcing the trial judge, Justice Abang Okon, to issue a warrant for his arrest.
Maina was reported to have stopped attending his trial since September 29, 2020, prompting Justice Abang of the Federal High Court, Abuja, to order the remand of his surety, Senator Ali Ndume, last Monday.
The court, however, granted bail to the Borno South senator last Friday.
