Amidst the false assets declaration by Senate President Bukola Saraki, and an order of warrant by a court sitting at Abuja, Saraki, has promised to appear before the Code of Conduct Tribunal on Tuesday to answer to the 13 charges brought
against him by the Code of Conduct Bureau.
Saraki, made this known in a statement released on his official website, Facebook page and Twitter handle on Monday.

See excerpts of the released statement below;
“While the Senate President stated and maintained that he is ready to submit himself to due process of the law on any issue concerning him, he also believes that he has an inalienable right to resort to the same judiciary for protection when he feels his fundamental rights are about to be infringed upon.
“The Senate President is a law abiding citizen and his absence from the tribunal was based on legal advice he received from his counsel that it is not necessary for him to appear before the tribunal at this stage since the jurisdiction of the
tribunal and the process of initiating the matter are being challenged before the federal High Court Abuja.
“Following the adjournment for the determination of the motion on notice and the substantive suit
before the Federal High Court to 30th of September and the appeal pending before the Court of Appeal adjourned to the 29th of September 2015, the Senate President has
decided, as a law abiding citizen, to appear before the Tribunal in the interim.”
Also in the statement, Saraki expressed his confidence in the ability of the judiciary to ensure that the course of justice is not altered.
