No End Yet To The War Between The Executive And The Legislature


Aggrieved Senators, through its committee on Judiciary, Human Rights and
Legal Matters, has issued a fresh summons on Attorney General of the
Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami (SAN).
Malami’s invitation is in connection with the forgery case his office instituted
against Bukola Saraki and his deputy, Senator Ike Ekweremadu, and two top
management staff of the National Assembly.
The Senate had first summoned Malami last week following a motion moved by
Dino Melaye.
Malami could not honour the invitation of the senators last week Thursday.
The Senate panel, in its fresh summons, dated June 27, and signed by its
Chairman, Senator David Umaru, asked Malami to appear before it this
Thursday by noon.
Part of the letter read:
“Accordingly, the meeting is now scheduled to hold on Thursday, June 30, 2016,
at 12 noon prompt.
“The venue is Senate Meeting Room 31.3, 3rd Floor, New Senate Building,
National Assembly Complex. You are, by this letter, invited to appear before the
mentioned place above.”
AGF Malami had said Saraki and Ekweremadu should go tell their stories in
court, and leave sentiments.
