It was a confession galore in Offa, Kwara State at the weekend where politicians exonorated the former Senate President Bukola Saraki of complicity in the infamous 2003 Offa bank robbery saga.

They admitted that they deliberately linked the incident in which over 25 people including policemen were killed to Saraki to settle political scores.

Recall that the state government is prosecuting the former governor Saraki for allegedly sponsoring the robbery.

The Kwara South Senatorial candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Saheed Popoola, said he aligned with the All Progressives Congress (APC) to play formidable role in the O to ge movement that removed Saraki.

According to him, most of them wove lies against Saraki because to settle political differences.

Speaking in the palace of the Olofa of Offa during the PDP tour of the Kwara South, led by Saraki, Popoola said that his support for the APC was regrettable.

Popoola revealed that majority off top political players opted for the O to ge movement and the APC for better development only to be disappointed by the present government.
