Senator Ali Ndume unveils his one-point agenda as he returns to Senate

 

A former Senate Leader, Senator Ali Ndume, has revealed what he will do for the rest of his tenure in the Upper Chamber as he is set to return after a six-month suspension which was slammed on him by his colleagues earlier in the year.

Ndume who was suspended on March 29, 2017, is expected to return on Friday.

Recall that Ndume was suspended following a point of order he raised on the Senate President, Senator Bukola Saraki and Chairman of the Senate Committee on FCT, Senator Dino Melaye (APC, Kogi).

The lawmaker told DailyTrust that his only agenda now, just like before, remained the plight of thousands of people of his constituency who had been rendered homeless as a result of insurgency.

According to him, humanitarian crisis in his constituency had not received the necessary attention, especially in the area of provision of funds to fix the damage wreaked by the insurgency.

He said, “If I resume next Tuesday, my one and only agenda is on the plight of my constituents. The humanitarian situation is worrisome and this is why it will be my one and only agenda.”
