Outrage at Senate over proceedings as senator storms out of chamber

Chief Whip of the Senate, Ali Ndume, on Tuesday, complained that the legislative proceedings in the upper chamber since the commencement of the 10th Senate, are not in conformity with its rules and regulations

Mr Ndume, who represents Borno South on the ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC), made the complaint via a point of order at the plenary.

Invoking order 54 of the Senate Standing Rules, the lawmaker called the attention of the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, to the alleged unconstitutional manner he had been handling the affairs of the upper chamber since he assumed office.
