The police yesterday declared that they were awaiting orders to effect the arrest of the Senate President, Senator Bukola Saraki.
The Senate President was billed to be arraigned before the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) sitting in Abuja yesterday, but he failed to turn up, relying on an......
injunction he purportedly secured from a federal high court.
The development angered the Justice Danladi Umar-led tribunal, which promptly ordered that the police or other relevant security agencies should produce the Senate President before it on Monday.
The Senate President is being accused for false and improper declaration of the assets he allegedly acquired during his tenure as governor of Kwara State between 2003 and 2011.
Reacting to The Nation’s enquiry yesterday, Force Public Relations Officer, Mrs. Olabisi Kolawole, said the police would arrest Saraki as soon as they got the necessary directive from the tribunal.
