Bukola Saraki Arrives Conduct Tribunal This Morning With Senators by olillywales(op): 10:42am On Apr 05, 2016
The Senate President and his supporters, mostly Senators and political cronies from Kwara State are already inside the court room of the Code of Conduct Tribunal waiting for proceedings to commence.

The Senate President came in at about 10 a.m.

Justice Danladi Umar and his partners are yet to come in.

But from all indications, the trial proper may not begin as Saraki and his lawyers will ask the judge to stay action pending their appeals over jurisdiction, pursuing the same course of rigmarole at the start of the case last year.

Umar had fixed today as trial date after dismissing the objection raised by Saraki’s lead lawyer, Kanu Agabi, a former justice minister and attorney-general.

This conversation ensued between another nairalander and myself in this thread:

https://www.nairaland.com/3008324/saraki-loses-code-conduct-tribunal/2#44072946



DIKEnaWAR:
He will appeal this Ruling to the Supreme Court. Then he is going to come back, find another fault, let the CCT rule on it and appeal again to the Supreme Court. When he has exhausted all his Appeals, he'll now come back to this Ruling today and ask that he be allowed to clarify issues with the CCB, before being put on trial. If the CCT overrules him based on the fact that "there should be an end to litigation", he'd appeal that one too. grin grin


This case is going to break a lot of hearts. Those who don't know how the Judiciary work, especially.
Osyabj:
You obiously are oblivion to the new Criminal Justice Act. From here on Saraki must stand trial. Even while he appeals the rulling to Supreme Court the trial goes on. After Saraki's CERTAIN conviction and removal as Fraudulently planted Senate President, he may win at the Supreme Court, but at that time Tinubu the Mastter strategist would have helped the APC to retake the Senate from the pdp and Oil thieves who sponsored Saraki and Dogara.

Stay tuned.
DIKEnaWAR:
The objection is fundamental to the trial without which it wouldn't go on. Something cannot stand on nothing. The Court must dispense with it first.
...We are watching. No one should criticise the Judiciary unduly, if you don't understand the workings of the law.

I av lost interest in this country.......

I av embraced the fact that no govt can transform Nigeria. Am giving up already.

I can't imagine this kind sufferness in my own country.
Re: Bukola Saraki Arrives Conduct Tribunal This Morning With Senators by psucc(m): 10:52am On Apr 05, 2016
What gain will nigeria have should saraki vacates the senate presidency?

And what fraction is that to the expenses incurred to oust him?

Until we have a good knowledge of the cost - benefit relationship, some the cases are not worth it.

It is not even about no government being able to make a positive difference, it is the attitude of the citizens that is even more worrisome......

If nothing reasonable is done today, I will be right to declare that this administration of Buhari is nothing but a sham that can never win the war on corruption.

haba! Na wa o! Which one is buhari's own inside this matter again? If buhari decides to ignore these judges and get these trials done you would still be the one to be crying all over the Internet that he doesn't obey court orders! Why are Nigerians reasoning and behaving like animals and sub humans like this?

As much as we wish it could be so (considering the crap legal maneuverings of the accused), this is not the days of barrack boys.. smiley

It is all on the CJN, Buhari isn't supposed to interfere in this..

You r right.... Sis. Democracy is really killing us.

I don't think we r ripped enuf to embrace democracy.

The practice 'democracy is defined as an avenue for huge looting.

May God send his messiah
Re: Bukola Saraki Arrives Conduct Tribunal This Morning With Senators by MrDavidson:
If after nearly 8 months this trial is yet to properly commence, then it's right to assume that to an extent Saraki has been wining. Very appealing, really? After the Supreme Court has given a final go-ahead, why should Danladi even listen to Saraki again for any injunctions whatsoever? Today is a make or mar day for Buhari’s so much vaunted antigraft war.

You lack the gumption to decode my message that should Saraki the rogue escape being punished for his flagrant abuse of office no one will take this govt serious. by the way, have you eaten?

I don't even understand the deal, Saraki struck with this Tribunal Judge...

For goodness sake, Saraki was arraigned under the ACJ Act 2015, which does not give room for stalling trials or filling of useless motions... so what is stopping the tribunal from telling Saraki the same?

Any motion from Saraki can be entertained even heard but that shouldn't stop the substantive case from going on...

What is this country turning into for amadioha sake

How do you expect a buhari that rode to power on the wings of corruption to get a single conviction against corruption? Life doesn't work that way.

But what do you expect him.to do exactly huh Put him under house arrest?

He probably was the person that prevailed on the CJN to insist on a time limit to criminal proceedings, which is the best he can do under the present circumstances..
