I am willing to appear before House Committee if my security is guaranteed – Maina

Abdulrasheed Maina, embattled former Chairman of the Presidential Task Force on Pension Reforms, has expressed his  interest to appear before the House of Representatives if lawmakers can ensure that no security agency arrests or harasses him.

He said this through his lawyer, Mohammed Sani Katu on Thursday during the committee’s investigative hearing into his reinstatement back into the Civil Service.

He said, “We ask that you give Maina protection so that no security agency will interfere or arrest him so that he’ll appear in person.

“If that is done, we can assure you that Maina will come. We want you to give Maina a cover to appear.”

Katu had earlier insisted that his client was still on the payroll of the Federal Government.
