The lawmaker representing Borno South Senatorial District, Ali Ndume, has urged President Bola Tinubu to declare a state of emergency on the nation’s security and economic sectors.
Ndume made this call yesterday in a televised interview where he also criticised the President’s declaration of a state of emergency in Rivers State.
“Let the President forget about everything and concentrate on three things – security, welfare of citizens and the economy.
“His attention should go there as number 1, then he should create a state of emergency in those areas,” he stated.
While describing himself as a democrat, Ndume said Tinubu’s declaration of emergency in rule in Rivers was surprising.
According to him, the President acted in a wrong move by that action on March 18 following the protracted political crisis in the state.
