[b]The next upper legislative chamber should look for a Senate President rather than a ‘Senators’ President’, which the nation has been saddled with in recent times, Senator,
Borno South, Ali Ndume, has said.
He lamented that the nation’s upper legislative chamber had fallen short of the expectations of most Nigerians, including senators, saying the Senate had become boring.
Speaking with newsmen in Maiduguri on Tuesday, Ndume said it was only fair that the North-East, especially the Borno or Yobe state be allowed to lead the 8th Senate as it had never been given such responsibility.
He lamented that there was so many procedural error in the Senate that had not truly allowed the legislative arm to flourish, lamenting that the affairs of the Senate had been run as if it was an extension of the executive arm, creating a master/servant relationship.
He said the relationship between the Senate leadership and other members should be seen as that of equals or at best, first among equals.
He said this was not the case in the upper legislative chamber, claiming that the influx of former governors into the Senate was responsible for the “turning of the Senate
President into Senators’ President”, adding that this must change.
Ndume said the Federal Government and the Chief of Defence staff, Air Marshal Alex Badeh, should be blamed for the continued detention of the kidnapped Chibok girl, one year after their abduction.
He said if the efforts to rescue the schoolgirls had been taken seriously before now, the girls would have been
freed.[/b]

Huh!! Ok Na

Whoz Ndume?

SHARIAREPORTERS:
Whoz Ndume?

Google is ur friend baba

And you are one of the biggest failures Mr Ndume. Hope Buhari brings your case and that of Ogwuche to a logical conclusion.

The senate was indeed worth nothing more than the chamber itself. The people were simply there to say their boring ayes and nays and walk home at the end of the say with their cars full of cash.

Who is he telling?

hmm he is tactically campaigning for senate presidency,

Am really glad David mark will be leaving the senate president's seat. He has completely turned the senate to an arm of the presidency.

Ndume, instead of you being the Senate President, Nigeria can exist without one. Forget party affiliation.

Even Ndume is talking, wonders shall never end!
