Saraki appears before ethics committee; denies knowledge of imported bullet proof SUV

 Senate President, Bukola Saraki has denied ever importing any SUV Range Rover jeep, saying “No document shows my name.”

Saraki made the clarification when he appeared before the Senate Committee on Ethics and public petitions on allegation of non-Payment of duty for the alleged imported jeep.

Sen. Ali Ndume while testifying on Monday before the Senate Committee on Ethics and Privileges over the alleged importation of bullet proof vehicle by Senate President Bukola Saraki that was seized by Customs said that the “bullet proof SUV allegedly belonging to the Senate President was cleared with fake documents.”

He insisted however that, “Me, Ali Ndume, has no interest in this case. If I had come with documents that Saraki imported this or that, that means I have interest. I don’t.”

In his defense, Senate President, Bukola Saraki said, “I am not an importer and I know nothing about the agent or any clearing company”.

“It is important that I clear my name. The documents are there and none of the documents are in my name,” Saraki said.
