– Nigerians should not be surprised that there are some people who will cry for the Kwara state born politician if he eventually vacates his seat either voluntarily or otherwise.
Senator Bukola Saraki, former governor of Kwara state, has been having series of running battles, ever since he was sworn in on June 8, 2015, as the seventh Senate president of the upper chambers. One of the major reasons, is basically the charges of money laundry and false asset declaration he is facing at the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT), since last year September.
The Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) on Thursday, April 28, adjourned the case of Bukola Saraki, the Senate president till Wednesday, May 11. It means the CCT episode is still far from over for Saraki.
