Bukola Saraki Says His Trial at CCT is a Huge Distraction.
Category: Nigeria National News
The Senate President Bukola Saraki who is presently standing trial for alleged False Declaration of Assets at the Code of Conduct
Tribunal says his trial is a huge distraction and he wants to clear his name as soon as
possible.
Saraki disclosed this during a recent interview with The Cable.
The senate president told TheCable in Abuj that;
“It
(CCT trial) is a distraction. I want to clear my name as soon as
possible so that we can move forward,” he said in response to a question
on the trial.
“It is a huge distraction.
“As an institution we must look at how to strengthen the judiciary. The fight against corruption must be transparent.
” It might slow us a little bit down, but I am confident we will make progress.”
Saraki also spoke on the eighth senate, and on his principal focus.
“The
group of senators we have now are very patriotic. You can’t compare it
to the previous senate. Senators have come there as senators of the
federal republic and not as senators of APC or PDP,” he said.
“I’m honoured by the support that they have given me.
“We are focusing on the economy and on how we can make Nigeria a better place. This is different from before.”
