Ali Ndume, the senator representing Borno South senatorial district, has told President Bola Tinubu to negotiate with the youths planning to embark on hunger protests across the country. ..Read Full Article
Ndume, who was recently sacked as chief whip of the Tenth Senate following his criticism of President Tinubu, expressed concerns about the possibility of the protest leading to that of EndSARS.
According to the Senator, the protests’ organizers are unknown, making it difficult for the government to identify who to talk to when it comes to negotiation, citing the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) case that the issue was resolved because there were leaders to engage.
Ndume made the comment while speaking on Channels TV’s Politics Today, reacting to the NLC’s earlier position. Joe Ajaero, the union president, called on the federal government to speak with the youths rather than reading political meaning into the protest.
The Borno-born politician also commended President Tinubu’s efforts on the issue of insecurity, particularly in fighting the insurgency in Maiduguri, the Borno state capital.
Ndume added that Maiduguri is currently more secure than the Federal Capital Territory, and the recent bombing in the northeast state was caused by some security measures being relaxed.
He urged Nigerians to be patient with President Tinubu, adding that he had just been in office for just one year and was a president who always responded to Nigerian concerns.
