What Suspension Will Mean For Senator Ningi – Shehu Sani

Following the three months’ suspension of Senator Abdul Ningi, by the Nigerian Senate on Tuesday, former senator, Shehu Sani, has highlighted how the development might affect the suspended senator.

Tweeting via his X official handle, Sani said, “Suspension in the Senate means a Senator will not be allowed to attend the plenary and  will be prohibited from attending committee meetings and participating in oversight functions.

“His Salary, allowances and all entitlements will be blocked. He will not have access to his office and he is expected not to be seen within the premises of the National Assembly,until the suspension is lifted.”

“When I publicly disclosed the salaries and running costs of lawmakers, it was the then Senate president who saved me from Suspension. If you talk too much, your body go tell you, that is why even opposition no fit oppose too much,” Sani added.

GWG.ng reported on Tuesday that Senator Abdul Ningi was suspended for three months by the Nigerian Senate, over his claim that the 2024 Budget was padded to the tune of N3.7 trillion.

The suspension of Senator Ningi as claimed by Senator Shehu Sani will further reinforce the culture of secrecy in the Senate.
