March 24, 2016 – Bukola Saraki Loses Bid To Stop CCT Corruption Trial, Justice Umar Adjourned Case To April 5
For the 5th time in a row, embattled Senate President Saraki has lost his bid to put an end to his corruption trial at the CCT (Code of Conduct Tribunal).
Today, Justice Umar agreed with Chief Kanu Agabi that the CCT has the right to hear the case of Saraki’s false declaration of asset and thus will proceed with the case.
The proceedings started at 10:20am, Saraki entered the dock at 10:24 am.
The case has been adjourned for trial on April 5, 2016.
Insiders alleged that Saraki has bribed journalists and photographers to prevent his pictures from leaking to the public.

Saraki, the best thing you should do is quietly go to Buhari, tell him you want to give up your office as the Senate President. You would be shockes how all the charges against you would melt away like snowflakes.
If you cling to your office, hoping that you may win, you would be disgraced and sent to prison at last to be their senate president.
I shouldn’t be giving you this token, after all you are a corrupt politician.

This is scandalous adjournment upon adjournment, the lawyers are trying all the underhand ways to perpetuate the case so as to frustrate the judicial system, the charges are to grave to be swept under the carpet, these are the people obstructing the development of Nigeria. even if his picture is not published it does not help his case,you have to pay the price, lets wait and see. naija for you!

The whole world is watching what will be the end results of this ever ending trial. In my own personal opinion. Mr Saraki has succeeded in frustrating the Nigerian judiciary to the point or level of shame and ridicule. Unless somebody who really believes in the rule of law and care passionately takes charge. Nigerians will be continued to be Fooled.

I don’t expect this type of comment from my well learned readers. if this man case was been trial by either EFCC or ICPC I would have belief is a fight against corruption but to me this is persecution not prosecution. saraki trial was machinated by some political leaders of the ruling party which see saraki as threat in 2019 or beyond. In conclusion, saraki case is a political hunting.
