A number of protesters have camped around various parts of Jabi District of Abuja, on the road leading to the Code of Conduct Tribunal, to declare support for the President of the Nigerian Senate, Bukola Saraki, whose corruption trial resumed Monday morning.
Mr. Saraki is standing trial for alleged false assets declaration and fraud at the tribunal. His trial began in September last year.

The protesters carried placards with various inscriptions such as “Nigerian youths and Students stand firm with Saraki,” “Let the Senate Continue Working,” and “No to the ongoing witch-hunt of Saraki.”

They also chanted slogans such as “Sai namu mai gaskiya” in Hausa language, meaning “Our man is a person of truth”.

When approached by a PREMIUM TIMES reporter, the protesters declined interviews.
They however brandished their placards more clearly while saying, in Hausa, that Mr. Saraki remained a man of the people, who should be allowed to do his work.

Mr. Saraki arrived the court at 10:05 am, amidst chants of “Oloye” by his supporters.
The Chairman of the tribunal, Danladi Umar, arrived the court at 10:20 am, and hearing in the case began.

A counsel to the prosecution, Gabriel Esedine, asked the court to stand down for one hour, to allow the lead prosecution counsel, Rotimi Jacobs, attend to another matter at the Court of Appeal.

The Tribunal Chairman, Mr. Umar, objected to the application, saying the Administration of Criminal Justice Act (ACJA) does not allow for undue delay once a trial has started.

But the lead defence counsel, Kanu Agabi, pleaded with the tribunal to allow trial resumes after Mr. Jacobs’ return.

Subsequently the trial was stood down at 10: 40 a.m. for an hour.

During the last hearing, a prosecution witness, Micheal Wetkast, alleged that Mr. Saraki continued to receive salaries and allowances as Kwara governor four years after the end of his tenure.
Since the beginning of the case, various groups have risen for, and against the trial.
The Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, Timi Frank, lambasted the leadership of the APC for sitting “on the fence and watch Mr. Saraki swim or sink in his trial.”
Also, senators in support of Mr. Saraki rose in his defence on April 6, saying they will resist any attempt to impeach their leader

Funny you! Stand with who? A robber of unborn destinies.

Human being are naturally biased, if I eat directly from Saraki, of cause I won't pray he lose this case and I would try justify why he should be let go. When I talk about eating I'm not talking about carrying banner for 1k o, but for us that do not earn a living through Saraki, we can talk with clear conscience, loruko Jesu! Koni bo ni nu e!

The picture shows the kind of people that stand with Saraki.

Rented hungry labourers.

I used to think Saraki's intelligent..until he started trying to remove his trouser through the head.


Can somebody tell me how these rented protesters will influence the trial?

No shame at all

Devil self get supporter in the name of money... That's why the northern leaders will never encourage education among there peeps

Some pple don get job sha

Even by Saraki's non existent standards, these protesters are fall hand incorporated...

Couldn't even hire believable protesters to give the wailing army something to brag with!! Na wah!

I leave the case for the CCT to decide.

i don't need money to support anyone, i have a conscience and i am using it

Rubbish, Saraki is already a goner.

#istandwithsaraki

Mr Otunba Aboboku Saraki you are on your own so keep standing aone with your Saraki.

See how dirty are the Nigerian youths in the last pics. I can perceive the odor emanating from their bodies. They can't afford 10 Naira Klin detergent to wash their clothes yet carrying placard for Saraki who has embezzled billions.

Walahi some Nigerian youths don run mad finish.

Ipob are warming up for the grand protest

you're not a very bright person

That's is what Nigerian politicians are good at. Keep the average Nigerian poor and hungry to the extent that he/she cannot reason properly. They are happy because majority of the masses are suffering from psychological disorder as a result of hunger and poverty.

So, people like Fowlyose and Saraki will just dash matured people(persin papa & mama ooo) N500 and few cups of rice and they will sing their praises for the next 6 months. Youths that are supposed to be meaningfully engaged are been abused because of N500 and a bottle of cold coke.

#saynotopovertyofdmind

Seeing the abokis in the pics it's obvious they were likely paid. I doubt if some of them even knows which state saraki represents

See them, paid hungry zombies.
