Toyin Saraki,the wife of the Senate President,Bukola Saraki,says she is ready to assist the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission,(EFCC) in "any lawful enquiries" that they have.
In a statement issued on Wednesday evening by Akeem olagoke,her private secretary,the former first lady of Kwara acknowledged an invitation from the EFCC,but says that no reason was stated in the letter.
Olagoke wrote "Her excellency,Mrs. Toyin Saraki,Founder of Wellbeing Foundation Africa and wife of the Senate President,has been informed by her office,that a letter of invitation was delivered to her, by and from the EFCC.
As Mrs. Saraki has no idea what this invitation,might pertain to.She has directed an immediate and formal response to the EFCC,that she will be delighted to assist them with any lawful enquiries that they may have,as a law abiding,transparent and accountable private citizen.
Mrs. Saraki has thus confirmed an appointment date to honor this invitation,at the earliest,mutually agreed convenience".
Bukola Saraki,the husband,was controversially elected the Senate President on 8th June,against the wishes of President Muhammadu Buhari and Bola Tinubu,former Governor of Lagos State.
Buhari is currently not on speaking terms with Saraki.
