The representative of Borno South Senatorial District, Mohammed Ali Ndume, on Tuesday, rejected a new office allocated to him by the Senate Services Committee.
Ndume, who was removed as Senate Chief Whip, said this in a letter to the Chairman, Senate Services Committee.
He said the office given to him did not reflect his seniority and high ranking status in the Senate.
The letter, signed by his Chief Confidential Secretary, Yati Shuaibu Gawu, reads: “I am directed to inform you that, Distinguished Senator Mohammed All Ndume, has rejected the allocation of office number 3.10 by the Committee.
“This is because offices are traditionally allocated on seniority basis.
“Senator Ndume is the most Senior Senator after Sen Ahmad Lawan and will only occupy an office on the fourth floor.”
Ndume was recently stripped of his position as Chief Whip of the Senate following his criticisms of the President Bola Tinubu-led government, hence the decision to allocate a new office to him.
