Ali Ndume, a lawmaker representing Borno South Senatorial District, has asked President Bola Tinubu to declare a state of emergency in the nation’s security and economic sectors.

Ndume made the demand on Friday during an appearance on Channels Television’s ‘Politics Daily’, when he also questioned the President’s proclamation of a state of emergency in Rivers State.

“Let the President forget about everything and concentrate on three things – security, welfare of citizens and the economy.

“His attention should go there as number 1, then he should create a state of emergency in those areas,” he stated.

While describing himself as a democrat, Ndume said Tinubu’s declaration of emergency in rule in Rivers was surprising.

According to him, the President acted in a wrong move by that action on March 18 following the protracted political crisis in the state.

Recall that in a nationwide broadcast, Tinubu suspended Governor Siminalayi Fubara, his deputy Ngozi Odu and all the members of the House of Assembly for six months.

To replace Fubara, the president nominated Vice Admiral Ibokette Ibas (rtd) as administrator to take charge of the affairs of the state for the first six months.

Tinubu relied on Section 305 of the 1999 Constitution to make the proclamation.
