CCT trial: Supreme Court sets Saraki free




The Supreme Court on Friday ruled on the appeal filed by Nigeria’s Senate President Bukola Saraki on the alleged false assets declaration case brought against him at the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCB).

The apex court ruled that Saraki has no case to answer in the remaining three charges proffered against him.

The five-man panel of the court led by Justice Dattijo Muhammad unanimously upheld Saraki’s appeal, and declared the evidence presented by the prosecution as hearsay.
