Kwara Group hail FG for appealing Saraki’s discharge, insist on re-trial by EFCC

Kwara Must Change receives with great optimism, the news of appeal of Mr Bukola Saraki’s discharge by the Code of Conduct Tribunal. We are very glad over this development and we believe it is the right step to hold Mr Saraki accountable for his numerous atrocities against the people of Kwara State. Saraki cannot escape justice on the basis of politics.

The Federal Government had on Tuesday, filed 11 grounds notice of appeal against the June 14, 2017 judgment of the Code of Conduct Tribunal which acquitted Senate President Bukola Saraki of 18 counts of false asset declaration and other related offenses.

Kwara Must Change reiterates our call that appealing the unreasonable judgement of the CCT is a right thing to do, but it is not enough. The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) must take up the challenge of prosecuting the Senate President based on other more graver allegations of criminality that were backed by evidences as revealed by the CCT trial.

It would be recalled that Kwara Must Change had demanded for the re-trial of Mr Saraki after his CCT discharge, arguing that the evidences presented against the Senate President is too valid to be thrown away into the waste bin and we urged the anti graft agency to help Kwara recover all the looted funds, done in connivance with Kwara State government led by the lackey governor Abdulfatai Ahmed, a stooge to Mr Saraki.

We make bold to say that the proper prosecution of Mr Saraki is the only way forward to keep the anti graft war of President Muhammadu Buhari on tract and we commend the FG for making this bold move.

Contrary to popular view, which held that the CCT trial was a waste of time, Kwara Must Change believe the trial has exposed how wicked and cruel Mr Saraki has been. It also exposed how the man who claimed to be serving the people was secretly siphoning the people’s money and converting it into foreign currencies and sending it abroad for personal enjoyment. It is a carefully planned conspiracy to keep Kwara down to their feet for continuous exploitation, but we shall rise up high above their self serving venture. The CCT trial exposed how Saraki was depositing kwara money into his own personal account almost 100 times every day and how Kwara money is being squandered on choice properties all over the country, while the people are groaning in pain and abject poverty. This criminal behavior must not be left unpunished.

We believe the trial by CCT is not enough, since it is merely looking at the asset declaration aspect which is limited in scope, we need a full blown criminal prosecution by EFCC to ensure that Mr Saraki pay for his offenses in full, rather than just the false asset declaration aspect.

We therefore call on the EFCC to swing into action with immediate effect to arraign the Senate President, so he can defend himself in a competent court of law before being sent to prison to serve the term.

Nobody is at war with anybody. The fg is simply trying to bring an alleged criminal, who stole billions belonging to Kwara people to justice. Politics is not an excuse to steal and perpetrate criminality. If we are calling on government to ensure justice to Evans the kidnapper, we should all join the call for government to ensure those who kidnapped a whole state don't go free. #SarakiIsWorseKidnapper

Pls go and sleep kid,see your comment like primary school boy.

Primary school children are far better than many adults. Primary school children are mostly innocent children who always speak with sincerity, truthfulness and fear of God. They are not sentimental or concerned by political influence to reason backwardly.

They know criminality is criminality and they do not try to defend one criminal, while calling for the prosecution of another. They want all those who commit crimes be punished without fear or favor, irrespective of position.

I like the primary school child
