What the case is about
The federal government, through the Code of Conduct Bureau, charged Saraki before the Code of Conduct Tribunal in September 2015 (originally 13 counts, later amended to 18) with falsely declaring his assets while Governor of Kwara State between 2003 and 2011.
Ruling & compliance
The Code of Conduct Tribunal cleared Saraki of the charges in June 2017, finding the case lacked substance; after further appeals, a five-Justice Supreme Court panel led by Justice Centus Nweze unanimously dismissed all 18 charges on 6 July 2018, holding that government lawyers had engaged in a 'forensic somersault'.
