Senate
President Bukola Saraki says despite his trial at the Code of Conduct Tribunal
and the allegations from the recently released Panama report, he will not be
tendering his resignation. Saraki spoke through his media aide, Yusuph
Olaniyonu, in a text message sent to Premiumtimes. The text message reads
"There’s
a case in the Tribunal and a resultant appeal at the Court of Appeal. The
underlining philosophy of our legal system is that an accused person is
presumed innocent until found guilty. Those who are contemplating calls for
resignation want to circumvent the judicial system. They are obviously being sponsored
by some politicians. The Senate President is not contemplating any resignation.
He will surely have his day in court.”
