Saraki took to his social media platforms to announce that he had received a letter from the Nigeria Police asking him to make his defence in writing, rather than appearing before police authorities.
In a post on Twitter, the Senate President said, “Following my earlier tweet, I have received the letter from @PoliceNG. They are no longer asking me to appear at any station, but to respond in writing to the allegations within 48 hours — which I plan to do.”
The police claim that some of the suspects in the Offa robbery confessed to being sponsored by Saraki.
