A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has granted bail in the sum of N1bn to the beleaguered chairman of the defunct Pension Reform Task Team, Abdulrasheed Maina.

On Monday, Maina arrived at the court, walking with the aid of a walking stick.

He is standing trial on alleged money laundering charge to the tune of over N2bn preferred against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.
