EFCC arrests 2 bank managers for helping Maina to launder stolen pension funds




Two top managers of a commercial bank in Abuja have been arrested by the operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission for assisting the former Chairman of Pension Reform Task Team, PRTT, Abdulrasheed Maina, to launder stolen pension funds.

Maina is on the run after the EFCC filed charges against him for stealing billions of pension funds through a phony biometric exercise alongside former Head of Service of the Federation, Steve Oronsaye.

The two bankers, Danjuma Zubairu, group head, private banking and Abubarkar Gwambe, an account officer, in the Abuja Central Business District business unit of the bank, according to EFCC officials were arrested on Thursday following fresh evidence that they are managing proxy accounts for the fugitive.
