Like others, I fear the EFCC may botch this case but the overwhelming evidence cannot be explained or wished away. We don't have a jury system, the judge can see through the charade. The sophistry of Saraki's lawyers will be similar to the wisdom of Ahitofel .
The important points to note:
1. Saraki is the first Senate President of Nigeria to be docked.
2. He has desecrated the position and brought the seat into disrepute.
3. He confuses himself with the State and continues to make laws as an indicted criminal.

Defence lawyer appearing for the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki, in his ongoing trial before the Code of Conduct Tribunal, Chief Kanu Agabi (SAN), on Tuesday continued the cross-examination of the first prosecution witness, Mr. Michael Wetkas.
Agabi, who started cross-examining the witness on Monday, dwelt on the details of about four petitions tendered by the prosecution in the course of the trial accusing Saraki of looting Kwara State while serving as governor of the state between 2003 an 2011.
