The former chaieman of Pension Reform Task Team, Abdul Rasheed Maina, who is facing charges over his alleged role in a N2 billion fraud, appeared before the Abuja federal high court on Thursday in a wheelchair.
Trial Justice Okon Abang had fixed today to deliver a ruling on an application the defendant filed to be released on bail pending the determination of the 12-count money laundering charge the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, preferred against him.
Maina is facing trial alongside a firm, Common Input Properties & Investment Limited, which the prosecution said was involved in the alleged fraud.
He was wheeled into the court by officers of the Kuje correctional facility.
