If Amaechi is found guilty of corruption, he will seize to be a minister— Sen. Sani

Senator Shehu Sani has said that despite the confirmation of former Rotimi Amaechi as a minister of the federal republic of Nigeria, if any court of law finds him guilty of corruption, he will not continue to serve as a Minister in the Buhari led government. Sani said this while paying a get-well-soon visit to a veteran journalist and columnist, Abdulkareem Albashir today.
He said that the senate couldn't have stopped Amaechi's ministerial confirmation because all the petitions brought against him were mere allegations because no court had found him guilty of corruption.
“The APC position on corrupt allegation is that it is still an allegation and the issue is still in court which the senate committee should not have entertained in the first place. In the general sense, we are duty bound to protect the interest of someone in our party and the opposition has the right to object to who ever is presented.
In the broader sense, Nigerians and posterity will judge whether our approval of Amaechi was a tacit endorsement of corruption because the issues raised were not enough to stop his confirmation. But we must also understand that even if you are made a minister and you get convicted, the law will take its course. Certainly if he is found guilty, he would not continue to serve as minister under President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.“he said

    Exactly what I opined.You can't nail someone based on mere allegations.All the rumours being peddled around haven't been proven in any court of law yet.
    You see this PDP ,they can best be described in Ola Rotimi's words as "Because the farm owner is slow to catch the thief,the thief calls the farm owner the thief". Alll the PDP saints that staged a walk over Amaechis confirmation are confirmed kleptomaniacs.People like Stella Oduah? Haba

    For having corruption charges slammed on him in the first place, Amaechi ought not to be made a minister. That's what people in advanced democracies around the world do!

    Hmmmm,i mean well here but Linda,your people need to really check their grammar and spellings. My dear, sometimes, the mistakes feel like a gut punch. The word that should be used here is "cease" which means stop and not "seize" which means take by force.

    Yes... Thanks sir for say my mind.. I knew right from time and I ve been telling people that Buhari LL not cover any corrupt person. Been it his son or daughter. The doubting Nigerians LL all understand the Love of Buhari for this Nation. I love Amaechi but let the allegations be investigated and if he is found guilty jail awaits him. Then Buhari LL ve 2 options; to visit him in prison or give him a presidential pardon. But Amaechi is a good person at least when U compare him with other politicians in Nigeria eg. Governors.
