Saraki in a statement from his Media Office in Abuja while reacting to the recent court case in which the Directorate of State Services (DSS) accused the Governor of Central Bank, Mr. Godwin Emefiele of terrorism and other sundry charges while seeking a court order for his arrest stated that what led to such an action by the secret service at this point needs further clarification so as not to create misunderstanding and wrong perception about the motive.
He added that without holding brief for the CBN governor who he believes should be able to defend himself as he is not above the law, his concern is that as a victim of a similar wrong and politically-motivated accusation, he felt that there were some clouds around the DSS court action coming two months to the general election, particularly at a time the apex bank introduced tough guidelines on the cashless regime and change of currency which could work against those who had planned to resort to vote-buying in the election.
