In a surprising turn of events, Senator Abdul Ningi has tendered his resignation as the Chairman of the Northern Senators Forum (NSF).
Ningi’s resignation, tendered in a letter addressed to Northern Senators Forum, comes amidst controversy surrounding his recent comments on the 2024 budget.
In the letter, he expressed his decision to step down, which he said is linked to “unfolding events in the National Assembly, the north, and the nation at large.”
The senator representing Bauchi Central had alleged that the federal budget was inflated by a staggering N3 trillion, sparking national debate and disputation. The Presidency swiftly denied these claims, while the NSF itself distanced itself from Ningi’s pronouncements, labelling them “personal opinions.”
Ningi, in his letter, also expressed gratitude to the forum members for the opportunity to serve.
