The leader of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, has described the ongoing trial of Senate President Bukola Saraki by the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) as a constitutional and legal matter.

Addressing State House correspondents yesterday after meeting behind closed doors with President Muhammadu Buhari, Gbajabiamila said Saraki's trial had nothing to do with the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The Senate president is being tried by the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) on a 13-count charge including alleged false declaration of assets.

"I can't comment and promote things that are unsubstantiated. You know the problem is a constitutional, legal problem. And I don't know how you can treat a constitutional legal problem politically," he said.

On whether there was still leadership crisis in the National Assembly, he said there was no longer any crisis in the House of Representatives.

"Everything that has a beginning has an end. I don't think and I don't know if there is any leadership crisis in the National Assembly. I'm not sure at what you're alluding to. I'm not in the Senate.

"But the little I understand is that there is an issue involved with the Senate President. That has nothing to do with the APC. That has to do with the issue of law, and I'm sure the senate president is being surely represented and he'll have his day in court," Gbajabiamila said.
