Full Story:

ABUJA – The Code of Conduct Tribunal, CCT, sitting in Abuja has ordered the Inspector General of Police, IGP, Mr. Solomon Arase and other relevant security agencies in ‎the country to arrest the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki.

In a ruling this afternoon, the tribunal headed by Justice Danladi Umar issued a bench warrant against Saraki following his refusal to appear in court to face a 13-count criminal charge that was preferred against him by the Federal Ministry of Justice.


FG had through a deputy director in the office of the Attorney General of the Federation, Mr. M.S. Hassan, asked the tribunal to order Saraki’s arrest.

‎Saraki who was billed for arraignment this morning, sent his team of lawyers to serve the tribunal with a copy of the ruling of Justice Ahmed Mohammed of the Abuja Division of the Federal High Court, yesterday, which summoned the Ministry of Justice to appear on Monday to show cause why the trial should be allowed to proceed.

Equally summoned by the court were the Chairman of the tribunal, Justice Danladi Umar and that of the Code of Conduct Bureau, CCB, Mr. Sam Saba, as well as Mr. Hassan who signed the charge against Saraki.

Meanwhile, irked by Saraki’s absence at the tribunal for the commencement of his prosecution over alleged false declaration of assets, the Ministry of Justice prayed the Justice Umar-led panel to order for his arrest, saying “he cannot sit in the comfort of his chamber and object to his trial in absentia”.

The prosecution further maintained that Justice Mohammed lacked the powers to summon ‎the CCT and CCB chairmen, even as it accused Saraki of engaging in “forum shopping” in a desperate bid to scuttle his trial.

Meanwhile, Saraki has through his lawyer, begged the tribunal to consider his position as the Senate President and stay the execution of the arrest warrant, saying he would be available for trial on Monday.

His plea was refused by Justice Umar who maintained that the accused person, having sworn to protect the constitution, ought to have shown respect to the tribunal by appearing before it today.

Honestly, you need to be tied and dragged along your Master! Ode!

Saraki's case is It's like an Armed robber approaching a court for injunction restraining the police from disturbing him during his operation or should not be able to arrest him after his evil act!

It is good that APC is starting the cleansing /the fight against corruption from its house, so that when Ike Ekweremmadu, Anyim and etal start having their turn in Courts nobody will cry "selective" Justice!

May God Bless Nigeria!!!

Nmenu I am enjoying this movie

meanwhile there is a certain pa chukwudi44 running around from one thread to another while Saraki's children are doing something tangible with their lives. He did worse on the eve of the last presidential election


In the end I am glad the Apc is starting his corruption fight from its own house

.saraki has bad advisers,he should have just appeared in the court to save him all this embarrassment. I recall that tinubu was also tried in the code of conduct tribunal in sometime 2012.Tinubu was personally there,to me i don't see any big deal if saraki is arraigned in the tribunal. For saraki's information, no court of law has the power to stop the cct from carrying out its statutorily duties.
