Celebrations by the Senate Presiden, Bukola Saraki, and his deputy, Ike Ekweremadu, following the withdrawal of the forgery case brought against them by the Federal Government, may be a little too premature, as there are indications that fresh charges would be brought against them, this time, individually.
The Federal Government has formerly withdrawn the forgery charges against the Senate President, Bukola Saraki, his deputy, Ike Ekweremadu, and two others, because of a pending case related to the charges before the Federal High Court in Abuja.
The Abuja division of the Court of Appeal has reserved its judgement in the appeal filed by the Senate President, Bukola Saraki, against his trial at the Code of Conduct Tribunal, CCT.
Senate President Bukola Saraki, has called on government at all levels to prioritise the payment of salaries and general welfare of teachers in order to boost the country’s education system and secure the future of the young people.
Chairman of the Code of Conduct Tribunal, CCT, Danladi Umar, has refused to withdraw from the trial of Senate President, Bukola Saraki, on charges of false asset declaration.
The trial of Senate President, Bukola Saraki, for alleged forgery was stalled on Wednesday, as the prosecution counsel, Aliyu Umar, said he had not prepared a response to a fresh motion by the defendants challenging the jurisdiction of the court.
