SARAKI ALLEGEDLY PELTED WITH STONES AND WATER SACHETS AT EID PRAYER GROUND

According to a page on facebook, Abiyamo reported that the country’s embattled senate president, Bukola Saraki was pelted with stones and pure water sachets by people at the Eid prayer ground in Ilorin today.

Another facebook user, Omakun Solomon also confirmed the incidence, said the chaos caused by the stoning of the senate president who has been charged with 13 counts of corruption and false asset declaration, caused the prayers to be disrupted with the loud speakers not calling the prayers and several thousands of faithfuls unable to say the prayers.

People were gathered to patiently stone him after the prayers. NewsRescue reporters saw stones flying into the sky.

The Senate president was reportedly disguised or covered up and whisked out of the grounds to save him from the anger of the crowds.

This was the first Eid Saraki was attending as senate president.

Kwara state has been slavishly under the control of Saraki and his late father for decades.
