According to the Deputy Leader of the Nigerian Senate, Sen. Bala Ibn N’Allah, Bukola Saraki's victory at the Code of Conduct Tribunal(CCT) was victory for democracy.
“The case was diversionary and unhelpful to the government of the day and now, he has been vindicated.
“Those who erroneously believed that they can mislead the government into doing a wrong thing should know that they have not been helpful to the government,’’ he said.
The Nigerian senate Chief Whip, Sen. Olusola Adeyeye, said that the judgement indicated that the judiciary was independent.
“It shows that the judiciary does not act based on what the executive wants or based on what the legislature wants," he said.
“Everybody goes to court to make a case. If you make your case, you win; if you don’t, you lose.
“In this case the Federal Government failed to make its case and it has lost.
“The case went to court. If he had been found guilty, the moral burden will be on him to go to the Court of Appeal or to resign from the office, but now he has won and the case is closed,’’ Adeyeye said.
Sen. Bukar Ibrahim (APC-Yobe) also congratulated Saraki for the victory, and said that it was success for the justice system in the country.
