EFCC Admits Tendering Incomplete
Evidence In Saraki CCT’s Trial

The trial of the Senate President, Senator Bukola Saraki
resumed at the Code of Conduct Tribunal, CCT, on
Wednesday with the first prosecution witness, Michael
Wetkas, admitting that some of the evidences he tendered
before the tribunal against Saraki were incomplete.
Saraki is currently facing a 16 count charge of false asset
declaration while he was the Governor of Kwara State.
At today’s resumed hearing, Wetkas, an operative of the
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, alleged
that Saraki did not declare a property he bought in 1993
during his assets declaration of 2003.
Wetkas said, “Saraki on 16 September 2003, did not declare
a property he purchased in Maitama, Abuja in 1993.”
He alleged that Saraki acquired the property through his
company, Carlyed Properties Limited.
When asked by Saraki’s lawyer, Paul Usoro, SAN, to verify
exhibit 20, a letter by the EFCC asking the Abuja
Geographical Information System, AGIS, requesting for
information on the property Saraki did not declare, which he
tendered before the tribunal, Wetkas admitted that the
commission tendered an incomplete evidence.
Wetkas said “I believe that in the course of administrative
work and numbering some parts went missing.”
