Saraki isn't getting a fair hearing & he's been to four different courts, even up to the SC?

Why are you pipul Laik dis nah?

Thank you for your advise, next......

vatoslocos:
Some of these 'eminent lawyers' have interests in the Saraki case. Justice Belgore(rtd) is like a father to Saraki and both from Ilorin and so has to protect anything affecting Saraki. Justice Oguntade(rtd) also has an axe to grind with Danladi Umar. It was Justice Oguntade who introduced Rasheed Taiwo to Danladi asking that Danladi should help quash the CCT charges against him. Trouble only started after Danladi ruled against Mr Taiwo after Danladi's P.A had allegedly collected almost N2million bribe from Mr Taiwo that he was going to help influence the case.

These two interested parties already tainted the submission of the so called 'eminent lawyers'.

While I partially agree with you and by extension the old justices, OTOH, in the grand scheme of things, then Saraki's tactics worked perfectly well: try bribing the Judge, if he does not bulge, intimidate him, if he still does not cower, destabilize him and get him to react so you can have him off your case for one of yours to come and preside over the case.

What have the wise men in the article got to say about all of Saraki's shenanigans since the onset of this trial?

Or so far, what have they have said about 'paid justice' in our country as a whole?

The likes of antics like this, and the 'get-away-with-anything' modus operandi is the reason why we have all these calamities befallen upon us, and by whatever it takes, a new path has to be created.

Jail Saraki as a deterrent to others -- bottom line, he made false declaration by his own hand.

He is in court, let him clear his name if he is not guilty as charged . . . he has the option to pursue this further to the supreme court -- let him have at it.

............ With a very vague and uninformed thought process like this.... Even with the points listed by some of the finest legal luminaries in the land above....... It is only God that will salvage what is left of this generation.... It is rather unfortunate that we do not read, nor research anymore.. We just join the bandwagon.... I guess that's why we are here skyway!

pls sir, I think I hate the man Saraki more than you. You won't know what I am saying, but this is the reason I decided to be a lawyer. There is what is called presumption of innocence that is why, those BH people are referred to as suspects. It pains my heart that fair trial seems alien to u guys. I hate violation of fair hearing. It could happen to you one day when you have issue with rich man.

blackpanda:



You claim to be a lawyer but u reason like a layman. The so called "eminent lawyers" are advising the CCT Chairman to go against an issue that has already been decided by the supreme court.
Supreme court has said the trial must go ahead, so your attempt to appeal to emotions rather than reason is ridiculous. And by the way, saraki is not only a super rich man but the no.3 person in this country. So your analogy is pointless!

As a lawyer. You are seeing Saraki as being maltreated using the law. As a citizen we are seeing a crook and a thief that needs to be hang so please don't judge us that we are not a fan of your profession.
The politicians use the stolen money to buy judges and lawyers. As you can see your proffession people following him to court to defend the thief. You and I know so well that if Uman stepped down, Saraki will win this case. He have a lot of money to buy a country.

These politician play dirty and to catch a pig like Saraki you have to get yourself muddy even before you start chasing the pig. That's what Uman is doing. Please let him do this for the sake of Nigerians. We need a big fish as scape goat to send message to the looters.

There is nothing like a fair hearing if you want to catch this looters they are politically wise they will always find a means to undo you.

Whenever we have change in government at the federal level, they won't hesitate to probe the past administration. That's a lesson for them all.

IamPatriotic:
A quick glance at the names of the "eminent lawyers" should tell one where they're coming from, men of dishonour and apostles of corruption camouflaging as statesmen to act as clogs in the wheel of progress of this government, it won't work, because the Buhari's has the support of the majority of Nigerians, so there's nothing the insignificant 5% and cohorts can do other than living with the fact.

I am use to your ravishing on any issue, esp. when you don't have a superior argument, you resort to name calling.
We are talking about fair hearing, you are talking about a letter from EFCC that was released 2 -3days ago.

Since the issue of Umar with the EFCC started, what were they doing? you allow yo emotions to control your shallow reasoning. Please go and read "the Republic" by Plato and digest his advise on "allowing your appetite to control your reasoning".

I am the most objective one here, I wish Saraki be jailed for 100yrs and I have written a brief that should PDP welcome Saraki I will tear my membership card publicly.
I hate the man but that won't take away my obligation as a minister in the temple of justice, whose duty is to see that Justice is seen to have being done.
I hate Saraki but Justice I stand for.
