As Senate President Bukola Saraki went into the Code of Conduct Tribunal dock in Abuja on Tuesday to defend himself against allegations of false declaration of assets, his colleagues at the red chamber stayed away from the Senate.
The News Agency of Nigeria reports that activities at the National Assembly complex had been at low ebb since the trial saga commenced.
Workers at the complex declined to speak with NAN correspondents on Saraki’s trial, some of them were seen discussing the matter in groups.
No senator was seen at the premises while the car park was virtually empty.
Aides of the senators were, however, seen collecting and distributing rams on behalf of the lawmakers for the upcoming sallah celebrations.
