The senator representing Borno South at the National Assembly, Ali Ndume, has rejected a new office allocated to him by the Senate Services Committee.
According to parliamentary practices, Ndume is expected to move to another office following his sack as the Whip of the Senate.
It was gathered that Ndume was asked to vacate his current office and move to the third floor to allow for the new Whip Senator Tahiir Mongonu to take over the office.
Responding to his allocation to a new office on the third floor, Ndume, in a letter addressed to the Chairman, Senate Services Committee, Senator Sunday Karimi, on Tuesday, said the office given him does not reflect his seniority and high-ranking posture at the Senate
The letter, signed by his Chief Confidential Secretary, Shuaibu Gawu, read, “I am directed to inform you that, Distinguished Senator Mohammed All Ndume, has rejected the allocation of office number 3.10 by the Committee.
“This is because offices are traditionally allocated on a seniority basis.”
The letter added, “Sen Ndume is the most Senior Senator after Sen Ahmad Lawan and will only occupy an office on the fourth floor.”
Recall that Ndume was in a letter by the All Progressive Party co-signed by the Chairman, Abdullahi Ganduje, and the Secretary, Ajibola Basiru, recently stripped of his position as Chief Whip of the Senate
