A text message was allegedly sent out to Senators, prompting them to yet again, escort Senate President, Bukola Saraki, to his trial at the Code of Conduct Tribunal.
Saraki’s corruption and false assets declaration trial is expected to resume on Thursday, at the tribunal.
On the last two occasions that Saraki appeared at the tribunal, not less than 50 Senators accompanied him.
The last time it happened, Saraki was heavily criticised across board, with former Minister of Education, Obiageli Ezekwesili, calling him out on Twitter.
According to Sahara Reporters, today’s sitting at the tribunal would be no different from the last two outings.
SR claims to have obtained the copy of the text message sent to senators by a certain ‘Arthur’, purportedly the Director of Protocol for the Senate President.
The supposed message read: “Gdevenin Distinguishr. Wish to inform dt Buses are available 2moro mrnin to convey Senators wishing to accompany H/E d Senate President. Departure is at 9 am frm d house @ 22 Yesderan Str. by IGP’s House Maitama. Regards. -Arthur (dir’ of Prot. S/P). +2348077770119.”
When YNaija attempted to contact the number, +2348077770119, the service provider said it was unavailable.
