Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and embattled Senate President, Olusola Saraki had a private meeting which lasted for almost two hours. Though details of the meeting were not made public, LEADERSHIP Weekend gathered that aides of both the Senate President and the Vice President were not allowed to be part of the meeting.

The meeting which held immediately after events that marked the nation’s Independence Day at the Presidential Villa took place at the Guest House of the vice president in the Villa.

It is thought that Saraki might have used the opportunity to explain and complain to the Vice President about his current travails since emerging the Senate President. President Muhammadu Buhari and the All Progressives Congress, APC, have treated Saraki with cold reception.

Senate President, Bukola Saraki is being prosecuted for alleged false declaration of his assets by the Code of Conduct Tribunal, a trial, he and his supporters say is a witch-hunt.

A presidency source who divulged the meeting to LEADERSHIP Weekend stated that the he was sure that the Senate President’s visit had the trappings of a private meeting.

“I think the Senate President came to sound out and complain to the vice president of the unfairness in his trial since he was not getting the ears of President Buhari, more so that vice president Osinbajo was the lead counsel when former Lagos governor and APC’s national leader, Bola Tinubu was being prosecuted on the same offence of false assets declaration,” the source said.

It was unclear whether Saraki got the deal he wanted as even the vice president himself appeared helpless at the end of the meeting. Both men however departed the venue of the meeting full of smiles.

So Saraki can now talk to a Commissioner? He should learn to purse himself of greed and arrogance. A stitch in time will save him 19 not just 9

Fake news!! Saraki would never condescend to meet a mere commissioner and Tinubu's puppet!!

Alli can say is 'lol'

But like seriously, does anyone think anyone is going to prison?

Lool again

Saraki, osinbanjo, keep enjoying, its your time

And keep planning the next media stunt to keep us talking

The high court/CCB saga is fading away...

"I only pity all those that thinks anything will happen to saraki, all this is politics and as it stands saraki will scale through. The problem is that nigerians thinks that these people have us in mind, saraki meeting with osinbajo is to collect tinubu's terms and conditions about the ministerial list. You believe that anything will happen to saraki, you must be a mad man". Quote me anywhere

Fake News... Vice President left Abuja almost immediately after the Independence Celebration for Lagos to attend "The Platform"..

Saraki should reserve these stories for the Judge at Code of Conduct Tribunal!

...a good quote reveals itself. Why are you quote an irrelevant quote....

But some idi*t releases fake report that Saraki had a meeting with PMB after the independent day's celebration while their wailing paid supporters like chukwudi44 and others also supported. Saraki is a goner whether he like it or not. By the way why is Saraki now having meeting with the so called mere commissioner who is lesser than the Senate president

chukwudi44:
Fake news!! Saraki would never condescend to meet a mere commissioner and Tinubu's puppet!!

It is people like you that will say I will never have a tatoo but will end up having tatoos on your DICK ....mere mouth making

Even while i think the CCB messed up its own case against Saraki by failing to adhere to the guidelines,It would take more than just the CCT judgement against him to remove him.

Only the judgement of the supreme court will automatically remove him from office and i dont even see us getting close to that in 4 years time

Saraki: Your excellency sir, I've come to discuss some issues with you sir.m ***starts speaking yoruba***

Osinbajo: Well, I cannot categorically assure you of anything now. I don't want to tell you one thing now and my oga at the top will say another thing.. **enters yoruba mode***

Saraki: Ah! Baba agba! I swear I didn't call your "mere commissioner" sir. Am I mad? Ejor! Ejor..

Osinbajo: I have forgiven you, but my oga at the top no get joy at all o..

ur quote are wrong here ok saraki meeting osinbajo won't do any favour to saraki cos' the federal government can never withdraw their case from the CCT.the case is intact and in 3 weeks time proceedings and proceedings will continue for 3 days in this month federal government w itness will testify in the court of law. saraki is a goner ooooooooo.

Pa Chukwudi, are you still alive? I thought the shock of the arrest of your queen of the coast Alison Madueke would have sent you to early graves now, o ba ni, ko tii baje, you will surely die because of Saraki this year
