Mr. Olajide Fasakin, an aide to the embattled former Chairman of the defunct Presidential Task Force on Pension Reform, Mr. Abdulrasheed Maina, has said that his boss was in hiding so as not to be killed.
 
According to Fasakin, Maina took the measure after escaping several assassination attempts from perceived enemies. While speaking on Channels Television, Fasakin insisted that he did not know the whereabouts of the embattled former pension reform chairman, but added that Maina was shot at five times in the past but was saved by his bulletproof car.
 
When asked whether Maina would come out if the Senate promised to protect him, the aide said it was not advisable for his boss to come out.
 
He said, “I would not advise him to come out because there was a petition against some members of the seventh Senate for having collected N3bn from some pension thieves.

“The petition is with the ICPC and the EFCC, we haven’t got the report up to this moment.

“The only way out, most likely, would have been for Mr. President, in his position as the President of the country, to inaugurate a commission of enquiry like Justice Chukwudifu Oputa Panel, do all the activities on the television, then we would advise him to come out.”
