Senate President, Bukola Saraki, has declared that he’s being hounded by those who are not in support of his rise to the position of the Senate President.

Senator Saraki made the declaration after his appearance at the tribunal on Tuesday.

In a five paragraph statement signed by him, Dr Saraki said that “I reiterate my belief that the only reason why I am going through this trial is because I am Senate President. If I were to be just a Senator, I doubt if anybody will be interested in the asset declaration form I filled over twelve years ago”.

He also said that the trial is one which would always be a referral to students of law and international community.

Senator Saraki, however, thanked his colleagues who joined him in solidarity and his counsels for their performance.
