He spoke at plenary on Tuesday
while reacting to the suit filed against Senator Dino Melaye by the Attorney
General of the Federation and Minister, of Justice Mr. Abubakar Malami, for
allegedly misleading the police about an assassination attempt on his life in
April 2017.
The senator, according to the
suit, also falsely accused the Chief of Staff to Kogi State Governor, Yahaya
Bello, Mr. Edward Onoja, of the assassination attempt.
Saraki, while reacting yesterday,
said Melaye’s arraignment which comes up on March 1, 2018, was not justified.
“I do not see how the issue of
arraignment can be a way forward in a matter like this.
“But be that as it may, I want us
all to continue to defend democracy and fight for what is right and I can
assure you that this institution will continue to stand for what is right.
“Those who think that they are
helping the government, but sometimes they are doing things that are not in the
interest of this democracy.
“I think they need to do what is
right for the interest of all of us. But for sure, what is wrong is wrong.
“I think those who are looking at
this will have a review and do what is right,” Thisday quoted him as saying.
