Jonathan’s loyalists responsible for Maina’s reinstatement – Presidency

The Presidency on Wednesday said some influential government officials loyal to the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan were responsible for the reinstatement of the embattled former Chairman of the defunct Presidential Task Force on Pension Reforms, Mr. Abdulrasheed Maina, into the service.

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, stated this in a statement made available to journalists.

Shehu was reacting to a statement by the Peoples Democratic Party on the matter.

He said the PDP had no moral right to level any accusations against the current government in respect to Maina.

“Some influential officials loyal to the previous government may have been the invisible hand in the latest scandal that saw the return of Maina to the public service, despite being on the EFCC’s wanted list,” the presidential spokesman said.


He, however, assured Nigerians that President Muhammadu Buhari is determined to get to the bottom of the matter of the impunity that led to Maina’s reinstatement.

“Everything will be uncovered in due course. This just goes to show us the scale of corruption that this government is fighting. And, as we can all see, corruption keeps fighting back viciously,” he added.

Shehu also described Maina as one of the monsters created by the former PDP government, and which are still rearing their ugly heads long after the party was soundly defeated in the 2015 elections.

“Over and over again, the President Buhari government has pointed out that the administration’s greatest problem is the mess left behind by the previous government. Maina is just one more example,” he said.

Omo see stupidity of this pighting kwarruption government. So GEJ appointed the DSS director from bubu home town that was providing security and even smuggled Mania out of the country or AGF Malami that wrote the letter that reinstated him or Dambazu that gave him work in his ministry.

Blame blame useless government

Lalasticlala, So they are also blaming blaming Jonathan for this one. Wonders shall never end.

I Blame My Village People

Jonathan loyalists you appointed and haven't fired yet.

GEJ is the Presidential Seal in Buhari's govt. Any action without a seal is invalid ab initio.

This is a confirmation that the President was aware of the deal. Maybe to corner the Maina's cake for ,2019.

If Buhari cannot satisfy Aisha, he will blame Jonathan.

Y

Why not just keep quiet if they don't know what to say.

Like seriously... This government no get shame aswear.

I swear, I didn't see this coming!

Blame GEJ?!


No no no, this is too much for me. My fuse don blow

What is APC without the mention of Jonathan?

LoL! This people have no shame.

Idiots


So i honestly think the f00lish idiots the dullard have around him have been paid and are trying hard to bring down this Govt.

So AGF who initiated the letter was working for the Jonathan and his job is still intact ?

Head of SSS who provided security for the guy is working for GEJ and his job is still intact ?

It is sad that we went from a Clueless Buffon to a Dullard.

We are in trouble and there is no hope for this country again at this rate.

The most amazing thing is that we waited for months for this crop of m0r0ns to be assembled.

No common sense, no graceful words, no actions.

Now this is the worst low anyone can go.



This government is a disgrace

How stupid can these guys get? Mehn!!! I swear it sucks being a Nigerian right now!!! APC una fada

There we go again.

Very soon dey will blame Bubu's nonperformance in the other room on Jonathan....

Clowns

Jesus!!! Which kind lie be this

APC why?

Bunch of confused people blaming Jonathan for everything.kwutinu...

lol anything bad they blame it on Jonathan, 2019 is almost here and they are still blaming without any real work/project to show

thunder will continue to fire them.

[b]Garbage shehu.......May posterity judge you and your household for spewing rubbish from your mouth.


@presidency,by may 29 2019 your handle will be useless.

Maina isn't the first person that was fired for corruption that Buhari has brought back to government. Here are a few I can remember
1. AbdulRahman Danbazzau was fired as chief of army staff for corrupt practices in purchasing of arms and gas been appointed minister of interior by buhari
2. Mohammed Barkindo was removed as NNPC MD by the late yaradua for stealing huge kickbacks from oil and and been appointed as Nigeria's Secretary General to opec by Buhari
3. Acp Zakari Bui, a man accused and dismissed for aiding boko haram kingpin kabiru Sokoto to escape from detention was reinstated and promoted by buhari.
4. Abdul Rasheed Maina, a man that ran away since 2014 and has been declared wanted by efcc for embezzlement of N2bn pension funds have been reinstated as deputy director ministry of interior.
5. Ahmed Gambo Saleh, Registrar of the Supreme Court, He stole N2.2bn belonging to the Supreme court and was caught red handed and fire, today Ahmed Gambo Saleh has now been appointed the secretary of the committee monitoring corruption trials.
6. What about timipre Sylva? Over 46 houses seized by fg has been returned to him.[/b]

Who is maina

I don't understand how someone sensible, I mean someone that his or her brain is not leaking will continue supporting this directionless government.

They never want to take blame for anything, I guess GEJ appointed the AGF, DSS Chief, Chief of staff, Minister of Interior and COS to the president?

WTF! They can only deceive the gullible zombies with the usual "GEJ blame", but I am sure some zombies eyes are becoming clearer.

Chai.
I have never seen this kind of childish government. Everything error is caused by pdp, every bad happening is from gej and crew.
But uncle Bubu us as pure as eva water.
God is watching

Jonathan is responsible for everything.. responsible for gross ineptitude of this government, responsible for institutionalising corruption in the system currently going on in this administration, responsible the current horrible state of our economy, worst phase of recession since 1914, responsible for the President's aloofness towards Nigerians. Jonathan is to blame for lack of tangible achievement by this government. Jonathan is currently to blame for the appointment of Abba Kyari, Abubakar Malami, Dambazzau, Babachir Lawal, Maikanti Baru..
We're tired of waiting for this government to wake up and get to work, so let's just blame Jonathan till 2019.

I'm singing Akon's 'Sorry, blame it on me' on behalf of bros J.
