Senator Karimi tackles chief Whip, Ndume over derogatory statements against Tinubu’s Government

Senator Sunday Karimi, representing Kogi West in the Senate has called out Chief Whip of the Senate, Ali Ndume cautioning him to refrain from making derogatory statements against the Tinubu government.
Senator Karimi in a statement issued on Saturday in Abuja, expressed concern over Senator Ndume’s behavior, likening it to that of a loose cannon and emphasizing the need for constructive dialogue and criticism in governance.

Ndume had previous week indicated thst President Bola Tinubu is not aware that many Nigerians are hungry.
Mr Ndume, representing Borno South Senatorial District, claimed that President Tinubu has been “caged” in the Presidential Villa and that some forces are preventing well meaning people from physically discussing the truth with him.

Continuing, Senator Karimi highlighted that most of Senator Ndume’s criticisms of the Tinubu administration appear to stem from a personal agenda to undermine the government at all costs.
He pointed out the inconsistency in Senator Ndume’s approach, noting that he had been notably silent during the previous administration led by President Buhari from the North.

Furthermore, Senator Karimi emphasized that many of Senator Ndume’s allegations lack substantiated evidence and are driven by a “pull-down syndrome” rather than a genuine commitment to improving governance. As an experienced legislator with over two decades of service in the National Assembly, Senator Ndume is urged to exercise caution in his statements and avoid making inflammatory remarks that could further polarize the polity and divide the nation.

Karimi’s call for Senator Ndume to adopt a more constructive and responsible approach to criticism serves as a reminder of the importance of engaging in meaningful dialogue and fostering unity in the pursuit of national development. It is essential for all stakeholders in governance to prioritize the collective interests of the nation above personal agenda and political vendetta.
