Senate President, Abubakar Bukola Saraki has asked President Muhammadu Buhari to move fast and investigate the allegations of bribery that has been leveled against the National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole.
“We expect the President with his anti-corruption campaign to institute thorough and transparent investigation into the allegations against his party chairman.
“The failure of the President to get to the root of the matter will finally destroy his ability and that of the party to continue to talk of any anti-graft battle. The President should let the investigation be thorough, open and transparent. This is no time for any cover-up.”
In a statement today, Thursday, by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Yusuph Olaniyonu, the Senate President said that until the outcome of a thorough investigation is known to Nigerians and the APC chairman is cleared of the allegations against him, Oshiomhole is not on a firm ground to talk about moralty or fight against corruption.
He described the threat by Oshiomhole to sue him over his statement as an empty boast because he (Saraki) will be ready to meet him (Oshiomhole) in court.
