What the constitution says about Saraki and others

Section 66 of the 1999 Constitution says:

''A person shall be unworthy to make laws for the country, if he has been indicted for embezzlement or fraud’’.

The constitution didn't say until a person has been convicted, it says, ''A person shall be unworthy to make laws for the country, if he has been indicted;;

Based on this constitutional provisions, it is instructive to say that the Senate President and the more than 15 other Ex Governors at the senate that had been indicted for fraud and corruption have no business at the National Assembly.

We must then ask, why are these indicted senators still making laws and presiding over our legislative Assembly against the constitutional dictate?

Why is the President and other appropriate agencies not doing their jobs of enforcing the constitution they swore to uphold?

Section 66 is relevant only to educate The Electorates to elect suitable Legislators. It's their business therefore to elect Born Again Armed Robber if they so wish.

This section of the constitution has been challenged up to the Supreme Court level in Atiku vs Federal government ahead of the 2007 election.
