Count Me Out of Saraki's Problem - President Buhari

                    

President Buhari yesterday made it clear that he has no hands in senate president Dr Saraki travail as it is being suspected in some quarters.
The Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity to the President, Mallam Shehu Garba In a statement said the Code of Conduct and the Code of Conduct Tribunal does not act based on instigation,such thought or believe by anyone is uninformed


The statement read

“As an independent in­stitution equal to any su­perior court of record, the tribunal is set up by the Constitution to determine the issue of default, false declaration or forgery in assets declaration.This, therefore, is purely a judicial process and has nothing to do with the Presidency If anyone has an axe to grind with what they are doing, they should do it in a judicial manner by chal­lenging those actions in a proper court of law. Let them hire a good team of lawyers to prove their in­nocence.Government has no de­sire to persecute anybody. The President has vowed to respect the rule of law and this is what he is do­ing by staying out of this matter.He has said times without number that the war against corruption has no sacred cows.Even if the President wants to help, there is no way he can do anything. Is he going to ask the judge to stop the trial?It is purely a judi­cial process, the type of which are routinely dealt with by the CCB and the CCT. There are many cases like this that are going on.
