The lawmaker representing Borno South Senatorial District, Ali Ndume, has called on President Bola Tinubu to declare a state of emergency on the nation’s security and economy sectors.
He also faulted the President’s declaration of a state of emergency in the oil-rich Rivers State.
“Let the President forget about everything and concentrate on three things – security, welfare of citizens and economy,” he stated.
“His attention should go there as number 1, then he should create a state of emergency in those areas.”
Describing himself as a democrat, he said Tinubu’s declaration of emergency in rule in Rivers was surprising.
He said the President acted in a wrong move by that action on March 18 following the protracted political crisis in the state.
