A senator who was present
when Sani was lecturing the senate leaders, told Daily Trust that Sani gave the
advice when the court went on a one hour recess.
Senator Shehu Sani who
spent four years in jail during the Abacha era, lectured Senate President Bukola
Saraki and his deputy Ike Ekweremadu on life in prison following their
arraignment on a two-count charge of forgery of senate orders, at the Federal
High Court Abuja on Monday June 27th.
“Sani came and lectured the
presiding officers on life in the prison. He told them that in the prison there
is ranking rule like at the National Assembly. He advised them to cooperate
with the Governor in the prison. He said after registration, they will be given
plates for meals.
Sani also told them that
they are going to share toilet, bathroom with other inmates and that it is the
Governor of the prison that will allocate bed space to them”
When contacted on phone,
Sani confirmed he indeed gave Saraki and Ekweremadu some lessons on life in
prison
“Yes, is anything bad in
what I did? They are my colleagues and as a former inmates, I felt I should
educate them on how to live in the prison, so that they will not be caught
unaware, “he said
Why?
