Senator Ali Ndume Mohammed rejects new office allocation.

 

Senator Ali Ndume Mohammed, who is representing Borno south at the National Assembly, has formerly rejected a new office

allocated to him by the Senate service committee.

In a letter addressed to the chairman of the Senate Service Committee on Tuesday 30th July 2024, the Senator expressed dissatisfaction about the office assigned to him, arguing that it doesn't reflect his seniority and high-ranking status in the Nigerian Senate.

The letter which was signed by his Chief confidential secretary Shuaibu Yati Gawu, stated that; "I am directed to inform you that, Distinguished Senator Ali Ndume Mohammed, has rejected the allocation of office number 3.10 by the committee. This is because offices are traditionally allocated on a seniority basis. Senator Ali Ndume is the most senior senator after Senator Ahmad Lawan and will only occupy an office on the fourth floor".

The development follows after Ndume's removal as the chief whip of the senate, a move that came after he criticised President Bola Ahmed Tinubu-led government.
