The lawmaker representing Borno South Senatorial District, Senator Ali Ndume has claimed that Senate President, Ahmad Lawan made money out of the election for the number three political seat in 2019.
Bellnewsonline.com recalls that Ndume, who also contested for the Senate Presidency position, lost to Lawan, the senator representing Yobe North District. The Borno lawmaker polled 28 votes, while Lawan gathered 79 votes.
Speaking during an appearance on Arise News on Tuesday, Ndume said Lawan spent money to become the Senate President and also made money after being sworn in as the President of the National Assembly.
Senator Ndume claimed that his Senate Presidency aspiration did not come to reality because he did not have the money to induce lawmakers.
