Ndume had stood surety for Maina who is standing trial at a federal high court in Abuja for alleged money laundering to the tune of N2 billion but Maina jumped bail, went into hiding in September and subsequently left the country.
He was arrested as he arrived Niger Republic and extradited to Nigeria.
The court remanded Ndume in prison when Maina refused to appear in court.
The senator was granted bail five days after on the grounds that he has a record of “good behaviour''
On Friday, the court ordered that Maina be remanded at Kuje correctional centre until the end of his trial.
Speaking with journalists in Abuja Ndume said he decided to withdraw as Maina’s surety because he is not trustworthy.
“I commend the Nigeria Police Force for executing the bench warrant issued on Maina by the federal high court in Abuja,” Ndume said.
"With the successful arrest, extradition and subsequent remand of Maina at Kuje Correctional Centre, I will proceed to direct my legal team to begin the process of withdrawing my suretyship for Maina with immediate effect cos his action has shown that he is not trustworthy".

The ndume himself is he trust worthy?
ReplyDeleteSomeone was alleged to have embezzled funds meant for people’s retirement, public servants who toiled for 35years and more, you stood surety for someone like that, and still have the effrontery to say Maina is not trustworthy, was this the first time Maina had ran away from the law? I’ll like to see how this case plays out
