The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has declared a former chairman of the defunct Pension Reform Task Team, Abdulrasheed Maina, wanted.
The EFCC stated this in a notice signed by its Head, Media and Publicity, Dele Oyewale.
“The public is hereby notified that Abdulrasheed Abdullahi Maina, whose photograph appears above, is wanted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in an alleged case of Receiving Stolen Properties,” It said in the notice posted on its official X handle on Wednesday.
