Some National Assembly leaders, particularly in the Senate, notably Senator Ali Ndume, the Senator representing Borno South and former Senator Adolphus Wabara who represented Abia South Senatorial District are among a few others who have suffered this fate.
For the second time as one of the principal officers in the Senate, Senator Mohammed Ali Ndume (APC Borno South), was again removed as Chief Whip over ‘complaints about President Bola Tinubu- led All Progressives Congress (APC) government on Wednesday, July 17, 2024, similar to the fate he suffered in January 2017, when he was removed as Leader of the 8th Senate ,over what they described as embarrassing the then Senate President, Bukola Saraki .
In his latest ordeal, the NWC of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) had written the President of the Senate, Senator Godswill Akpabio, asking for the immediate sack of Ndume as Senate Chief Whip.
