Senator Abdullahi Adamu has finally broken his silence on his sack by the Northern Senators as their chairman… “The decision to have me removed as Chairman of the Forum is connected to my resistance of change in the sequence of the 2019 general election.”

“I was removed as chairman of the Northern Senators Forum and had those baseless allegations leveled against me because I rejected the decision of the Senate to reorder the sequence of general elections in the country. But, I will stand by my decision. I will resist being swayed by any decision the Senate takes regarding my position.”
It will be recalled that Senator Adamu was accused of mismanaging N70 million belonging to the Northern Senators.
Be that as it may, Senator Shehu Sani revealed that the former Chairman of the Forum handed over N70 million to Adamu at the inception of the 8th Assembly but part of the money cannot be accounted for. “There are some things that some of my colleagues cannot say but I’m not used to holding back what is the truth. When we resumed as senators, Sen. Ahmed Lawan tendered the sum of N70 million to the 8th Senate.”
“That N70 million was monies gathered by northern senators from the 7th senate. So it was handed over to the 8th senators from northern Nigeria under the 8th Senate. I think this country is becoming a huge joke. First of all it was the rodent that drove away the President and we now have snakes consuming about N36 million, and you now you have monkeys.”
