Kenneth Gbagi, a former minister of state for education in the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan, has called on Senate President Bukola Saraki to resign over his trial at the code of conduct tribunal.
Addressing journalists in Abuja on Wednesday, Gbagi said the senate under the leadership of Saraki, had lost credibility.
“We have a problem in Nigeria where we don’t have people of honour, dignity and integrity as leaders,” he said.
“The mere fact that the senate president is undergoing criminal trial is an indication that he has no business being a senate president living with tax payers’ money.

“First, Nigerians will not have faith in anything that comes out of his senate that is chaired or presented by that kind of person.
“Again, the entire international community will not believe in the passage of any bill or motion under his leadership.
“So if you ask me, that is the end of him. He is gone. And like several other government where you think you get in and it will be business as usual, it is not true.”

Saraki, who is facing 13 count charges of alleged corruption and false declaration of assets, pleaded not guilty to all the charges on Tuesday.
