The Federal Government on Wednesday applied to amend the 16-count charge bordering on false asset declaration, against the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki.
Already, the CCT panel led by Justice Danladi Umar has given a nod for Dr. Saraki to enter his plea to the fresh charge.
Dr. Saraki was docked before the CCT on September 22, 2015, on a 13-count charge and later re-arraigned on April 28, 2016, on an amended 16-count corruption charge.
The Federal Government alleged that he made false/anticipatory declaration of assets, operated foreign accounts while in office as Kwara State governor.
