Uproar in Senate over alleged forgery trial

• Tinubu, Melaye, others in shouting match
• Invites SGF, threatens arrest of AGF
• Charges FG, states on teachers’ salaries
• Babachir Lawal speaks on envoy-nominees

It was a rowdy session at the Senate yesterday as it became a theatre of the absurd. At a closed-door session, Senators who could not agree on how to resolve image problems confronting the upper legislative chamber on grounds of the trial of Senate President Abubakar Bukola Saraki and his deputy, Ike Ekweremadu, resorted to insults and use of obscene language.
