Following the order by President Mubhammadu Buhari, the Head of Service of the Federation, Mrs. Winifred Oyo-Ita, has submitted a report on the recall of  Mr. Abdulrasheed Maina, former chairman of the Presidential Task Force on Pension Reforms, to the Presidency.

Despite being investigated and declared wanted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, for alleged involvement in graft, Maina was said recalled in the Ministry of Interior allegedly by the Office of the Head of Service in an acting capacity to fill a vacancy created following the retirement of the Director heading the Human Resources Department in the Ministry.

Obviously alarmed by the development, Buhari ordered the immediate sack of Maina and queried the Head of Service of the Federation, Oyo-Ita, who was said to have been involved in the controversial recall.

In a statement by the media aide of the president, Femi Adesina, Oyo-Ita was said to have been ordered to write a report and forward it to the Presidency.

In a television interview, Femi Adesina, said barely some hours after the query was issued, Oyo-Ita had submitted her report to the president’s Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari.

It would be recalled that Oyo-Ita on Monday countered the claim by the Minister of Interior, Abdulrahman Dambazau, that she had a hand in the recall of Mr. Maina.

Following the controversy generated by the reinstatement of Maina, Dambazau had said the Head of Service and the Federal Civil Service Commission should be held responsible.

But in a statement issued in Abuja on Monday, Oyo-Ita said Dambazau lied that her office was involved in the recall of Maina.

The statement debunking the claim was signed by the Assistant Director Media Relations, OHCSF, Mr Mohammed Manga.

The statement reads in part:  “The Head of the Civil Service of the Federation wishes to inform the public that the re-instatement and posting of Alhaji Abdulrasheed Abdullahi Maina never emanated from the Office of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation.

“Consequently, the purported re-instatement and posting by the Office of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation is totally erroneous and misleading.”
