Maina’s Former Drivers Run to Police Over Threat to their Life.

Abdul Ibrahim and Ibrahim Muhammad, former drivers to Abdulrasheed Maina, ex-Chairman of Pension Reform Task Team, have written a letter of complaint to the Nigeria Police Force over threat to life and intimidation by Maina and his wife, Laila.

The drivers, in the letter addressed to the Commissioner of Police, Kaduna State, by their lawyers, claimed that Maina, currently remanded at Kuje Correctional Centre, has been issuing death threats to them for granting an interview to operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission in the ongoing case against him.

Maina is currently standing trial on a 12-count charge of money laundering to the tune of over N2bn preferred against him by the EFCC. The duo of Ibrahim and Muhammad said that sequel to the arrest of Maina, they were apprehended by the EFCC, detained and interrogated.

They however, raised the alarm that after speaking with the anti-graft agency, they had received death threats from Maina’s family. They also said that the police was used to intimidate their relatives and that they had been forced to go into hiding to remain alive.
