Amacree made this claim during an interview on Channels yesterday.
Asked if the EFCC should seek help from sister agencies in finding Maina, Amacree said,
Speaking further, Amacree revealed that DSS also possessed intelligence on Maina’s whereabouts but the feud between the acting EFCC Chairman, Mr. Ibrahim Magu, and the DSS boss, Lawal Daura, might be preventing the two agencies from cooperating.
“The EFCC is looking for him but it was claimed that the DSS was protecting him and so intelligence will not be shared. The break in synergy did not start today. Remember that Magu was supposed to be confirmed by the Senate and he hasn’t been confirmed till now because of a letter from the DSS. So, there is no love lost between them.”
He said there was a general belief that President Buhari was fully aware of Maina’s reinstatement.
The former DSS assistant director wondered why Mr President would go ahead to reinstate Maina after the Head of Service of the Federation, Winifred Oyo-Ita, warned him against it.
“The HoS said she advised the President not to reinstate Maina. So, let someone come out and tell us the truth.
“You can see the anger in the HoS. Apparently she feels they are dragging her into something she was not aware of. So, it was her way of expressing that this is wrong.”
