Elder statesman and former Anambra State governor, Chief Chukwuemeka Ezeife has strongly condemned the trial of Bukola Saraki.
He said the trial was politically motivated with deliberate attempt to ruin the former Kwara governor’s political career.
Speaking with Vanguard on Tuesday, Chief Ezeife faulted the Federal government in trying to destabilize the stability of the country.
He said, “In the name of God Almighty, this country belongs to all of us; it is not good for Nigeria to begin witch hunting with impunity; I am not criticizing any government but let us free Nigeria, Nigeria is for the blacks.
”If Saraki was the biggest thief, we did not know, why did the government wait until he become the Senate president.
”All I am saying is that if Saraki is being removed today as the Senate president, I don’t think he is being removed because of corruption but because of politics”.
He also called on the media to mount a press unit that would fight these unjust acts in the country.
