Abdullahi Ahmed Wakili, PRP senatorial candidate for Kaduna-North under the People Redemption Party (PRP) in 2023, has strongly criticized the swift suspension of Senator Abdul Ahmed Ningi by the Nigerian Senate.
Emphasizing the importance of upholding due process and fairness, Wakili stressed the need for a thorough investigation into the allegations of budget padding totaling N3 trillion before drawing any conclusions.
In a statement released personally in Kaduna on Wednesday, Wakili condemned the rushed suspension of Senator Ningi, cautioning against potential suspicions that the Senate is attempting to conceal wrongdoing without proper inquiry.
He advocated for transparency and accountability in governance, particularly in addressing allegations of financial misconduct.
Wakili urged the Nigerian Senate to reconsider its decision and allow for a comprehensive investigation into Senator Ningi’s claims, asserting that it would bolster the credibility of the country’s institutions and ensure that citizens’ concerns are heard and addressed.
