Families of the former Pensions Funds Chief, Abdulrasheed Maina have cried out that, health of their son has deteriorated in the prison, as he can no longer walk on his own.

The family in a statement made available to newsmen in Kaduna on Wednesday expressed fear that, Maina may paralyze if not given urgent medical attention.

The statement signed for the family by Abdullahi Usman said, Maina’s Blood Pressure, as at Tuesday morning, as measured by the Prison’s medical personnel, read 196/130 but nothing was done to rush him to any equipped medical facility for treatment.

The family described the most recent information reaching it as intimidating and disturbing as it depicts denial of access to treatment as his condition deteriorates by the day.

His family members have now called on the authorities concerned to stop playing politics with the life of Maina. They are pleading for him to be allowed immediate access to medical facility to receive treatment as provided by law saying his condition can be made worse as he is liable to becoming paralyzed if urgent action is not taken.
