Sen. Bukola Saraki & Sen. Ike Ekweremadu are currently facing trial for forgery, being they have been accused of masterminding the forgery of the Senate Standing Rules to help in fraudulently paving way for their election as Senate President & Deputy Senate President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria

By their alleged actions, they have compromised the moral integrity of the entire National Assembly, as they have dragged the whole body of legislators to shame through acts of deception & selfish impunity

In the interest of restoration of integrity to the law making organ of the Federal Republic of Nigeria both locally & internationally, it is important that the Senate is given a fresh start. This is more important at a time like this when Nigerians have taken on the herculean task of ensuring that the fight against corruption & impunity in public service as championed by President Muhammadu Buhari is fully supported.

We therefore respectfully call on Se. Saraki & Sen Ekweremadu to resign their positions as Senate President & Deputy National Senate President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, and subsequently face their trial without doing more damage to the National Assembly by further dragging that exalted institution with all the Distinguished Senators & Honourable Members in the mud

Legal counsel is currently reviewing the forgery allegations to draft formal petitions for the relevant oversight committees. We are tracking all official silence from the Senate leadership as we prepare to escalate this matter to the Ethics and Privileges committee.

The current volume of support demonstrates a clear public mandate that warrants a formal review by the Senate Ethics Committee. I am currently drafting a petition for delivery to the Office of the Senate President to ensure these demands are formally entered into the record.

The third most important citizen must be a person with integrity neither saraki or his deputy posses that quality they are selfish and greed for clinging on to power. such people only serve their interest not Nigeria, and for that i say they should resign.

Let's do a proper thing as least for once. Nigeria's image and survival is bigger than anybody's political ambition

The honourable thing to do is for both to step aside pending the determination of the criminal cases against them

Saraki's pretendance will not save him because he's the highest beneficiary of the forgery fraud
