I sense that Mr. president was a were of Maina reinstatement, But some people in their effort to block the president from knowing the truth, used the head of service to the federation who might be at the center of the pension scandal to confuse him to withdraw the reinstatement. The president is compromising. Maina must be given a fair hearing if corruption war is a reality. Hail you Mr. Maina
President Buhari should take concrete and urgent step to hear this man out if he want people to take serious about the fight against ‘almighty ‘ corruption. Maina should be given adequate security to open anything that he want to open.
Quite a riddle , the state protecting a criminal. It should be in the Guinness World Records.
Aha, i weep for this country called Nigeria
The ball is now in your court buhari, if truly you don’t know about this trillions let this man defend himself in a public hearing
Jonathan gave him the opportunity to do it, why didn’t he?
He used the recovered loot to fund Buhari’s election, that was why Baba ordered his reinstatement.
What a funny corruption fight!
We will review and take appropriate action.
