Budget Padding: 'They Are Trying to Silence Me But...' – Ningi | Daily Report Nigeria
SHARE

Suspended senator Abdul Ningi representing Bauchi Central has asserted that even though the Senate was trying to silence him, he could not control the can of worms he unleashed.

As a former Majority Leader in the upper chamber, Ningi had accused the 2024 budget of having N3.7 trillion that was unaccounted for in any project.

He made the claims in an interview with BBC Hausa over the weekend.

Thereafter on Tuesday, during the session of the upper legislative chamber, Ningi, a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), received a three-month suspension.

Following his suspension, Ningi stated that Senate members were determined to silence or arrest him, as he discussed the matter as a guest on Arise TV.

He said:

“That is why I said I know this parliament very well; I have come a long way. And that is why we are speaking. Let’s speak.

“Have they ever asked me since the beginning of this so-called crisis, where are your findings? Where are the documents? I’m not using my head to come up with figures.

“Nobody has talked to me about evidence. Nobody has suggested even listening to me. All they are trying to do is to ensure that ‘how do we make sure that Ningi is silenced or arrested so that he doesn’t do anything?

“I have opened this can of worms. Neither they nor I will be able to control it.”
