Akpabio Bows To Pressure As APC Sacks Ndume From Senate Whip Post
The Senate, on Wednesday, announced the removal of Senator Mohamed Ali Ndume (Borno South) as Chief Whip.
When put to voice vote by the Senate President Godswill Akpabio, members of the APC Senate Caucus endorsed Ndume’s removal as Senate Chief Whip during plenary.
GWG.ng reports that in a letter addressed to the Senate Caucus by the national leadership of the ruling party, the APC asked Ndume to resign his membership of the APC and join any opposition party of his choice.
The letter was signed by the party’s national chairman, and Secretary, Dr Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, and Barrister Ajibola Bashiru.
Ndume was replaced by Tahir Mungono (Borno North).
This comes amid Ndume’s recent criticisms of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s government.
