Former Senate Leader, Senator Mohammed Ali Ndume, has reiterated his opposition to the Tax Reform Bills currently before the Senate, urging their withdrawal for broader consultations.
Speaking in Abuja on Sunday, Ndume emphasized that northern Nigeria is a vital asset to the country and dismissed claims portraying the region as parasitic.
“The North was, is, and will never be a parasite or dependent on any region or even the country. We are assets, not liabilities, to Nigeria,” Ndume declared, countering narratives that suggest otherwise.
