Saraki
The
All Progressives Congress, APC, has debunked allegations by the
Peoples Democratic Party ,PDP, that the Federal Government plans to
arrest the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki and his Deputy,
Senator Ike Ekweremadu.
APC
in a statement signed by Yekini
Nabena, Ag.
National Publicity Secretary, said: “We
had thought that by now, the PDP would be tired of its lame
opposition strategy of false alarms, baseless and frivolous
accusations.
“The
President Muhammadu Buhari administration has repeatedly demonstrated
its strict adherence to the rule of law, therefore the alleged plan
to arrest or harass the mentioned leaders is hogwash and baseless.
“Clear
conscience fears no accusation. Why are PDP leaders afraid of arrest
if their conscience is clear? All law-abiding citizens or resident of
the country have nothing to fear about arrest.
“However,
nobody no matter how highly placed will escape the full wrath of the
law if he or she runs fowl of our laws.
“If
the Senate President and the tree-climbing Senator are facing
criminal charges in our law courts and his Deputy has explanations to
make to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for
acquisition of numerous properties in Nigeria and abroad through
questionable sources, the President Buhari-led APC administration has
nothing to do with them.
“The
laws of the country are only being applied and they should answer for
their acts of infamy.”
