1. Saraki has political thugs.
2. He bought Cars for some of them.
3. I don't think he'll stoop so low to send them on a bank robbery.

NPF, do your job without being politically bias.

Saraki should honour the invitation and clear his name if he is innocent.
The police is only doing it's job.
If your name is mentioned by a suspect,no matter how frivolous it may seem,its the duty of the police to invite you for you to clear your name.
Saraki is no bigger than the Nigerian law and universally accepted police procedure.



Don't break a sweat, he'll definitely honour the invitation.
They've all learnt a big lesson from Dino's predicament.

The Nigerian police is pathetic indeed. I now understand why they and efcc can never win any case in the law court. How can you be conducting an investigation into a matter as serious as armed robbery and you wish to rope in an influential and rich politician and the only evidence you have against him is a socalled confessional statement obtained from armed robber!!! Is everyone mad in Nigeria

I think it's high time we begin to ask relevant question in this country what happened to the first set of criminals who accused him of being their sponsor.

I believe this story... I know saraki and some things he's doing secretly in kwara.

Use your blockhead!

What sense does it make that Saraki will stoop so low as to get involved in a senseless bank robbery?

Is it difficult to fathom/fugure out that this is a sinister attempt to besmirch/sully the name of the Senate President in futile attempt to neutralize the impact of his impending/probable exit from APC?

Wait till the muzzle of a gun scrape the back of your neck till you realize that what we are about entering now is a full-blow police state...

Bros please go and read the entire police release on Premium times.
Those thugs are were not sent by Saraki to rob those banks. Heck we don't even know. But what we know is that the leader of the gang is a Saraki boy. They traced payments from the chief of staff of the governor of Kwara to the guy. One of the vehicles used in the robbery, a Lexus jeep was impounded in the Kwara State ministry of environment. The vehicle was smuggled there because the owner knew the police was looking for it. The chief of staff to the governor ordered them to put it there after he was arrested.The story is really dirty. Please open premium times.

What I believe is Saraki might not directly be involved the said robbery, but those guys might be connected to him as his political thugs, which means they still works for him. The issue of car gift to those guys will not surprise anyone from Kwara state, because it was not a rumor, it's wat almost everyone is aware of.

nothing to believe again in this country. one ll wonder if the invitation was politicaly motivated or the police was actually doing their job

Very simple. Some of them are political thugs that shouldn't have anything to do with armed robbery and senseless killings. I think greed lead them into armed robbery and their godfathers have to explain their connection with criminals. Almost all Nigeria's political office holders have thugs on their payrolls.

Yes he does!
Have those thugs sponsored by Saraki killed people before?
Yes, they have! Numerous times.
Are those thugs capable of robbing banks?
Yes, they are very capable.

Saraki should respect himself and respond to the summon, he is not above the law.

This is getting very interesting. Nobody is above the law so Saraki should report before the IGP to explain his link to the armed rubbers. If he's found culpable after investigation, he should be prosecuted. Nobody should get away with running a criminal gang no matter how highly placed.

Another APC apologist. Did you watch the footage of that robbery? Look at their faces and match it with those who robbed the banks. The robbers looked more or less like fulanis. In case you didn't know why Saraki is being attacked by the APC, here's a hint: Saraki was among the npdp members who joined and formed the APC. Again, he's not taken full sides with the APC from inception hence, his decision to appoint Ekweremadu, as his deputy which had angered the APC members so much. Again, from all indications, the npdp has resurfaced and ready to break away from the party because the APC-led administration isn't seen to be capable of governing this country, given the security challenges and the current economic woes. That's not all, the recently conducted ward congress in Kwara, especially in the wards where the minister of communication, Alhaji lai Mohamed hails from wasn't in favour of the latter and the entire party. The police, under the instruction of Mr lai Mohamed and the presidency were instructed to arrest Saraki loyalists linked the the botched ward congresses and they went hand-picking them, accusing them of robbery. That's APC for you. Once you decide to leave the party or tell them the truth they don't want to hear, you become their enemy. Police have been our worst enemies from time immemorial. The same police told us they arrested the robbers who robbed banks in Lekki a few years ago, even confirmed that the suspect testified that they actually carried out the act. What happened a few months later? They came back and robbed some banks in Festac. They told us another story that they were militants from Niger Delta. They arrested innocent souls and paraded them on the telly. What happened a few months later? The same gang went to ikorodu to rob. They told us shekau has been killed more than 5 times yet, shekau keeps waxing strong. He would come and dispel the rumor on a video and post it online, mocking the fed govt. We must give APC a red card next year. They have shot themselves in the leg by signing not too young to run bill into law. We will do the needful with our pvc and show them were not lazy. t

This whole set up is just all about bringing saraki down by all means,just take a critical look at the statement of the suspect n then read in between the lines in relation to the political events surrounding saraki's asension to the senate presidency,all patriotic nigerians should oppose this persecution of saraki not for his own personality but for the sake of posterity n precedence.

This is laughable, surely Saraki has no link with the robbery, but some thugs he sponsored who were part of the gang mentioned him, since he is enemy of the IGP, that's how he enter hot soup, this shouldn't cause any drama, he should just prove his innocence, Simple!!!

please don't trust Nigerian politicians, he might not send them on that robbery but them might be his boys so let police do their job
Re: Police Invite Saraki Over Offa Robbery by Tecno66: 7:42pm On Jun 03, 2018
Let's get this right. If I have a staff and he decides to go and commit crime after work, does that mean I sent him? They said they worked as thugs to him, is that enough to conclude that he sent them? Come to think of it, the same Idris that refused to appear before the senate is now summoning someone to appear before him, is that how things workout?
bappahman:
Police has invited Senate president Bukola Saraki to answer to allegations surrounding his links to the armed robbers behind the deadly robbery of a handful of banks in Offa in April.
Five principal suspects among 15 others paraded in Abuja in connection to the Offa robbery indicted the senate president in their statements.
One Ayodele among the suspects and acclaimed leader of the robbery gang said they were political thugs of Saraki and have been working for him since when he was governor of Kwara state.
Ayodele (leader of the gang) said they were not working on the instruction of Saraki but they worked with his encouragement.
Among exhibit the police intelligence monitoring unit secured is a vehicle allegedly given him by Kwara state government.

Re: Police Invite Saraki Over Offa Robbery by kitaatita: 7:43pm On Jun 03, 2018
We shouldn't play politics with violent crimes that killed 33 innocent persons, including pregnant women and police officers.
In 2012 a top Boko Haram commabder, Shuaibu Mohammed Bama was arrested in the home of Senator Ahmed Zanna. Zanna was subsequently arrested. There was no uproar then. Why now? I listened to the audio interview of the leader of the gang and he stated that he was a thug for Saraki and the governor. He also stated that Saraki didn't know about his robbery expedition.
Naturally the Police would want to talk to Saraki. It doesn't make sense for him to run to the President or play politics with such dastardly act. My opinion is that he is not involved in the robbery. Those guys are using his influence to escape justice.

the chicken has come home to roost.. saraki was warned to lead the senate to affirmative action against the executive when dino was falsely and maliciously framed by the executive in a bit 2 silence and cow him as he's been critical of government and exposing a lot of truth sorry he looked the other way and now the executive has also framed him so who will lead the senate to confront the no holds barred buhari's led executive, ekweremadu needs 2 decisively without masking intentions lead a unified senate against this show of impunity put up by the executive

A pattern seem to be developing.... Maybe the next thing will be the suspect escaping from police custody. then maybe the arrest and humiliation of the number three citizen of Nigeria.

It is sad that the police have been dragged into local politics, it is unfortunate that the APC cant manage power....

There will be no humiliation if the number three citizen honors the invitation of the police as an institution
