Alhaji Abdullahi Samari, a factional Deputy Chairman of the All Progessives Congress in Kwara state has accused The senate President, Bukola Saraki of image laundering Naija News reports.

Samari while speaking to the press on Monday in Ilorin said Saraki is bitter about his trial at the Code of Conduct Tribunal.

“We know and have seen serious and concerted efforts aimed at promoting Senator Saraki after his acquittal by the Supreme Court. It is clear that, he is bitter that CCT trial seriously humiliated and embarrassed him.”

“Therefore, the latest moves such as public engagements, long radio talk and conferment of chieftancy titles among others are some of the image laundering packages put together by his strategists.”

He also accused Saraki of inducing a rally cum reception after the Supreme Court judgement:

“We are aware of how people were mobilised with peanuts and in some cases with unrealistic promises to attend the rally held last week.”

“The sole objective of the money induced rally was to tell the world and particularly, the APC leadership in Abuja that he was still in charge of the state.”

“There is nothing new in the move though some individuals perhaps have been deceived.” He said
