Ndume Breaks Silence On Removal As Senate Chief Whip, Rejects Akpabio's Appointment

The lawmaker representing Borno South, Senator Ali Ndume, has issued a stern warning regarding efforts by certain individuals to undermine the administration of President Bola Tinubu.​


In a statement released in Abuja on Friday, Ndume expressed deep concern over the escalating prices of fuel, food, and essential goods, which he described as increasingly unaffordable for the average Nigerian.

Ndume attributed the rising cost of living to the actions of what he termed “bad actors” who are allegedly promoting harmful reforms and policies designed to destabilize the government.

He criticized these individuals for diverting attention away from pressing issues such as inflation control and exchange rate stabilization.

“Those who are bent on making the President look bad will stop at nothing in inflicting pain on Nigerians through the so-called reforms until things get out of hand, and the blame will be on President Tinubu,” Ndume stated, emphasizing the need for immediate action to alleviate the hardships faced by citizens.

The senator urged President Tinubu to prioritize addressing the suffering caused by hyperinflation, which he noted has been exacerbated by frequent price hikes across essential goods and services.

“I believe President Bola Ahmed Tinubu means well for Nigeria and Nigerians. I know this because I know what he stands for. But some of his advisers who don’t mean well to the people of this country give him wrong advice,” Ndume said.

He continued, “I’m appealing to him to resist these bad people who want to pitch the people against his administration. The hardship these people are inflicting on Nigerians is becoming unbearable. I’m currently in Borno, and I know what I’m talking about. People are really suffering, hungry, frustrated, and angry.”

Ndume highlighted the severe impact on residents in Borno, saying, “Many families here can’t even feed anymore. The untold hardship caused by these frequent price increases is unimaginable. Farmers can’t move their products because of the high cost of transportation.

“Those who manage to transport goods pass the costs onto consumers, making food items too expensive. People can’t even afford to travel anymore. For instance, traveling by road from Abuja to Maiduguri is now a fortune. How many people can afford that?”


Ndume emphasized that Tinubu has good intentions for Nigerians but must not allow a few bad advisers to damage the country’s stability.

“That’s why I’m begging him to do something before it is too late. It is not good to test the patience of Nigerians, and that’s exactly what these bad advisers are doing,” he said.

“As soon as the President returns to Nigeria, I urge him to look into these issues and address them urgently. The purchasing power of Nigerians is too poor, and they can’t afford the things being pushed on them every day by enemies of the state,” Ndume advised.
