Bennett Oghifo Former President of the Senate, Dr. Bukola Saraki, has denied a claim that the 8th Senate he led rejected request of $1 billion from President Muhammadu Buhari to purchase arms to fight insecurity in the country. He said they merely insisted that the Executive follow due process provided by the nationâs Constitution. This is contained in a statement issued yesterday by Oluwole Onemola, a media aide to the immediate past President of the Senate. The statement titled âMURIC Lied: 8th Senate Aided, Not Hindered President Buhariâs Fight Against Insecurityâ, described the claim allegedly made âby one Prof. Ishaq Akintola,â as âunenlightened propaganda piece disguised as a âpress statement,â which was published on Thursday, April 8th,â and that the claim of the professor, who acted âunder the one-man operation group known as MURIC, is factually and constitutionally incorrect.â
