SARAKI, ABDULFATAI AHMED, OTHERS FACE CULPABLE HOMICIDE TRIAL ON JUNE 4.(PHOTO)


 Saraki, Abdulfatai Ahmed, others face culpable homicide trial on June 4


The Kwara State Government has filed a 20-count charge of culpable homicide, criminal conspiracy and other offences against former Senate President Dr. Bukola Saraki, former Governor Abdulfatai Ahmed, and two of Ahmed’s former aides.


The defendants Saraki, Ahmed, Yusuf Abdulwahab (Chief of Staff to the then Governor), and Alabi Olalekan (a former aide) will be arraigned before Hon. Justice Haleemah Salman of the Kwara State High Court, Ilorin, on Wednesday, June 4, 2026. 


The charge number is KWS/114C/26.

The case stems from the bloody Offa armed robbery of April 2018, in which several people were killed. 


The state government alleges that the accused armed and sponsored some of the convicted robbers.

Key evidence cited by the prosecution includes:


Confessions by Ayo Akinnibosun, one of the convicted robbers, who said he was a “hit man” for Saraki’s political structure.


Akinnibosun claimed he received two AK-47 rifles from Yusuf Abdulwahab two days before a congress election, as well as a Toyota Lexus 300 Jeep bearing Saraki’s number plate and cash for “empowerment.”

He said he led a group of political thugs working for both Saraki and Ahmed.


Akinnibosun and his men reportedly escorted Saraki to Offa for a condolence visit shortly after the robbery.


Vehicles and other exhibits linked to the robbery were recovered from the Kwara State Government House and a government ministry in 2018.


The Court of Appeal had earlier upheld the conviction of Akinnibosun and other robbers involved in the Offa incident.

Saraki has consistently denied any involvement, describing the case as a political witch-hunt aimed at destroying his political career.


The trial is expected to attract significant political and public attention given the high-profile status of the defendants and the sensitive nature of the 2018 Offa robbery.
