A Federal High Court in Abuja on Thursday ordered the remand of Faisal Maina, son of former Pension Reform Task Team chairman, Abdulrasheed Maina, to a correctional centre to serve his jail term for money laundering.
Justice James Omotosho made the order after granting an ex parte application filed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission seeking a warrant for Faisal’s commitment to the Nigeria Correctional Service.
The EFCC had asked the court to enforce the conviction and sentence imposed on Faisal for money laundering and failure to fully disclose his assets in a declaration form.
The commission also requested that his prison term should commence from October 14, 2026, when he was rearrested by the Department of State Services in the Karsana area of Abuja.
