The President of the Senate, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki, has stated that the money stolen during Offa robbery attack in Kwara State was not up to N7 million but he gave the community N10 million.
Armed robbers had on April 5, 2018, invaded Offa Community in Kwara State, killing 33 persons, including nine policemen and a pregnant woman.
Those arrested in the course of an investigation into the crime are already standing trial, with Saraki accused as the sponsor of the armed robbers.
But fielding questions on Midland FM in Ilorin yesterday, Saraki said the money stolen was N7 million, but when he visited the palace in Offa, he gave the people of the community N10 million.
He said: “What I will say is that we should be thanking God.
“When the issue Offa started, it was like play.
“Someone now said am the one that facilitated the armed robbery.
“How much is in that safe?
“Someone said the money in the safe is not up to N7 million.
“The day I went to greet Kabiyesi in the palace, I gave them N10 million.”
The Senate president has insisted on his innocence in the Offa robbery saga despite the insistence of the Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, that he has questions to answer.

Mr Man U ve a Lovett mindset. He said how much is in that safe that he will plan to rob the bank that what he melt. IGbis missing real crime investigation with politics and some useless citizen still support this unprofessional conduct. I guess your brain have been bastardized u haven’t experienced other police in civilized world. Shame

The most disappointing thing is that when the case was transferred back to Kwara some of the accused have been released to the extent that PDP brought them to speak on radio program of the party to tell the world that to they are innocent.
