Senate President Bukola Saraki has arrived at the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) where is trial for alleged false declaration of assets continues.
‎
He arrived in company of numerous ‎senators at 9:45am. TheCable counted at least 35 of them, who were seated in six long seats on the left side of the courtroom.‎

When ‎Saraki was at the tribunal on October 21, he came with 81 senators.

Some of the senators were Ike Ekweremadu, deputy senate president (PDP); Sam Anyanwu (PDP), Andy Uba (PDP), Adamu Aleiro (APC), Shehu Sani (APC), Dino Melaye (APC), Tayo Alasoadura (APC), Kabiru Gaya (APC) and Uche Ekwunife (PDP).

Saraki was in court for the first time on September 22, after an order for his arrest by the CCT.‎ He pleaded‎ not guilty to 13-count charges of false declaration of assets, and said he was on trial because of his emergence as senate president against the wish of certain people‎.

Although, he came to the tribunal voluntarily, he had sought to stop his trial at the high court, but failed.

On October 30, the appeal court also dismissed Saraki’s application to stop his trial at the CCT for lack of merit.‎
‎
Consequently, he appealed to the supreme court to set aside the judgment of the appeal court.

The case is yet to come up for hearing at the apex court.
‎‎
This is his third appearance at the CCT.‎ On his second appearance on October 21, the tribunal adjourned his trial‎ on the grounds that there was a pending judgment at the court of appeal.

Good

The last time he went with 81 senators, he was still docked even though the case was adjourned..

I am waiting to see what the senators will do if the court rules against Saraki.


Mr Hinwazaka, I can see you down there

What is this show of shame and total disregard for judicial process and the citizenry all about?

Must they follow him like their umblica cord is with him?

hmm

Make i book space

Idleness, why won't they follow him around when they have nothing doing.

some plpp will have headache for this........Saraki we know

Ok with committee members

Why is the Cable vexed with the number of senators who accompanied the senate President. Last I checked, it is not a crime. Saraki, keep on shinning

Let seec what will transpired today

again, not impressed. Wake me when they've followed him to prison! Bunch of shameless follow follows! It's no wonder they lack the willpower to bring forth the change that we desire. Why do the susceptible and @$$lickers get into power again?!

Bad.

i don't care

saraki is a thief

Amaechi is an arm robber

Oshiomole is a scallywag

Fashola is a hooligan

Saraki is still playing his card well....the judgement of the apex court will determine his fate.

From 81 to 35.The number is gradually reducing.
By d time the cct begins the main trial and these senators know it's no laughing matter ,less than 10 will accompany him next time.

Bukola Saraki of APC should resign honorably.

How can APC fight corruption when 85% of its members are corrupt or having corruption cases in court.


APC, Party of professional looters and career rogues. - Alh. Lie Mohammed.

Yes. It is a show of shame, but those who started the trial did not do it with honest intentions. They started the show of shame. Saraki is on trial today because he went against his party's directive to vie for and become the Senate President. The whole thing is like a circus to them and they are the clowns entertaining us. Only problem is; we are being entertained on empty stomach and our time is being wasted.

Dem don dey run one by one

Nigeria senators sees morality or moral burden as a cloth they can wear and pull any time they choose. When its Saraki, the pull the cloth but wears double when its Amaechi. I think its high time we abandone our political affiliations and rise up against these crooks. Awon were.

Is he trying to intimidate the judge? ?

why are these people disgracing this our country just because of their stomach.i pity saraki cos of d day he will fall from grace to grass.he tought most of them are supporting him hmmmm.he will later understand what we call Human being.

Nigeria is a lawless country. As long as you have money and power you will have your way.
