The Importer of the Bullet-proof range rover allegedly belonging to Senate President, Bukola Saraki, Tokunbo Akindele has denied bringing in any vehicle for the National Assembly Chairman.
According to him, “In 2015, we imported the bullet-proof SUV for the company use, we later changed our minds, as we got an alternative.
“We received the car in 2015, the car was not imported for Senator Bukola Saraki.”
Akindele spoke during the hearing on Saraki’s involvement in the importation of the vehicle which the Senate President had vehemently denied.
Also the car dealer, Lanre Shittu who also appeared at the hearing said no vehicle was sold to Bukola Saraki.
He said, “We facilitated the sales of the Vehicle to the National Assembly. We never sold any vehicle to Bukola Saraki
“We requested for SUV docs from Mr Wale Tibubu of Oando, and we discovered they had fake documents from Customs.”
Further hearing was adjourned to Tuesday by the Committee to allow Customs state its role in the SUV documentation.
