Saraki is facing a 1-count charge of asset falsification filed against him by the Federal government. The Supreme Court last Friday, struck out an appeal filed by Saraki, challenging the constitution of the tribunal and also asking the apex court to quash all the charges.
In a telephone interview with Premium Times, Senator Kabiru Marafa, the most vocal of the Unity Forum, said that although Saraki had the right to be presumed innocent until proven guilty, he should resign now “before he is disgraced out”.
"The Senate should have understanding with Senator Saraki. What’s happening at the Code of Conduct Tribunal has nothing to do with the Unity Forum; it’s between him and the State. And country’s law says he’s presumed innocent until proven to otherwise. By reason of omission or commission, Saraki has pushed himself to a position of disadvantage. By moving from one court to the other up to the Supreme and got himself knocked out, what it portrays is that the Senate under Senator Saraki is fast losing credibility. The most honourable thing for Saraki is to resign and face his prosecution. If he wins, the seat is always there and he can be re-elected again if those that supported him truly believe he is the best person for the position. And if not, he will remain a senator like he was in the 7th Assembly. Is it a must that he become Senate President?”he said Reacting to Marafa's position, Senator Dino Melaye who is one of Saraki's loyalist in the Senate, said Marafa appears to be living on cheap drugs and that he is a clown "Marafa is a clown and perhaps lives on cheap drugs. The case at the CCT is not about Saraki; rather, it’s about the Senate. And we will not fold our arms to mess up with the Senate. The Senate is stable and Saraki has the support of most of the Senators.”he said

I wonder what the bloated Senator from Kogi West will do when saraki is convicted by CCT. One really have to be sorry for been taken for a ride by Dino Melaye as a champion of Anti-
Corruption. Shame this guy is one of our representatives from Kogi State.
Me Sinate president should row the path of honor even though we know the powers behind it
I know that it must be a..p..c scam party senators.
Saraki is not quilty of any thing so calling for his resignation is a joke as buharis government.
All a..p..c are joker.

Hmmmmmmmmmm ok
theyre high on cheap drugs
-D great anonymous now as Vivian Reginalds
Hmmmm! I don't understand th country anymore#Lindangwanu#
Let's see how it goes...
Saraki is in a pathetic situation right now.Even though he attained d seat of d Senate Presidency in a curny and illegitimate manner,I think am liking him these days cuz truly he has been active and performing his jobs.The demands by some senators that he shd resign in order for him to face his persecutions is what has never happened in Nigeria before except in some countries like Asia & America.. If he too resigns anyway,it's no big deal! I just hope he manages to escape convictions or being proved guilty.Could Saraki be a good guy to continue being d Senate President regardless of his ordeal?..Only God decides nobody or any LIBers!
Drama begins again!
Drama begins again
lol.... politics
Let him step down though we know the nija man will never want to relinquish power.
sure he can be in power n be facing trials.... its well with naija system
Power hungry useless goats
Nawaooo
Alright
HmmMm
Haters
APC with thier quest 4 power! Power hungers
Hmmmmmmmmm
Stories. More Instagram followers for you
I SWEAR!! Very dumb people. They should keep allowing jagaban to be using their head anyhow. Mumus
There is no honor among thieves. They will all resign with him rather than do the honorable thing by giving him good advice.
Let the law take its course. For once we are beginning to feel proud of our democracy. Many governors think they can loot their state treasuries then come end if term take refuge in the Senate. The era of immunity is almost over. Thank you voters.
On the Law We Stand !!!
Let the morally bereft bumpkin face his trials and tribulations with fortitude. If during the trial his mendacity is proven let the rule of law be seen to be done. The sooner the polity is ride of these kleptomaniacs the better for all and sundry. The issue is not party allegiance per se but about eradicating the impunity with which members of the polity have plundered the treasury.
It is only in NIgeria u see sm1 like bukola saraki still presiding over d senate even when it is obvious he is guilty of all d allegations,yet these ppl portray themselves to be sensible,bukola saraki is a traitor and its showing in his character .he became Senate president by goin against his party wishes and such thing is not right he shld do d honourable thing ,but he won't ekweremadu too shld also vacate his post.
They should leave this man alone.
This is really serious issues at hand now.May God help us in this country.
