Speaking on Friday during the StateCraft Masterclass event at the Social Media Week, Lagos, Saraki said his assets declaration trial is more of ‘persecution’ than an actual fight against corruption.

When asked by Declan Galvin of Sahara Reporters why he had thus far, failed to walk away from the position of Senate President, he said: “It is not a fight against corruption, it is more about being persecuted.”

He further stated that: “We are public servants and you must fill your asset declaration form when you get in office and I did mine 13 years ago.”

“The charges have nothing to do with corruption or money being stolen anywhere and that is why at the end of the day, I will have my day in court. Because it is not about corruption.”

“I don’t understand how the same organisation that cleared my asset declaration to be proper in 2004, 2009 and 2011 can suddenly wake up and say that my record is faulted.”

The Senate President however, declined to say who is persecuting him with the assets declaration trial.

Persecution instead of fighting corruption that's understandable to us now.

He either resigns honourably or get thrown out by the court in shame. It's his choice to make.

Misappropriated priority. And mischanneled contribution.

You should be addressing that to the finance minister by name kemi who in her foolishness and unprofessionalism is trying to ground this economy to a halt.

he should remain there because resignation is a taboo in nigerian politics. Yeye polithiefcians.

Some people are just scared that they won't return to Aso Rock by 2019 of people like this are not brought down. Next will be Atiku cos they know that if the elections were left to them alone, they wouldn't win. They had better start working cos propaganda and media trials won't stand as campaign points in the next 4years, sorry I mean 3years.

You can't persecute everyone. This man tries to reach the common man in the street, he knows what we really need in this 21st century unlike those that stayed behind in this 20th century.

In as much as I support the fight against corruption like in the case of the former minister of interior, Bala Mohammed, I urge those that are just being persecuted now to hold on. 2019 is around the corner. They will come to beg you to help them win

Nobody can persecute you, what are the courts for,abeg go and clear your name in court if your hands are clean

Same way I can't understand how certificateless, gworo-chewing, burukutu sipping bastard buhari who was rejected by nigerians in 2003, 2007 and 2011 elections is suddenly now the one to bring "change" to our dear country! It shall not be well with all zombies and their families

These APC government will go down in history as the worst government of all time in nigeria! I repeat OF ALL TIME IN NIGERIA! Quote me anywhere!

A politician by birth
