Ali Ndume, a senator from Borno South and a former Senate majority leader, has stated that ratification of the proposed N66 billion erosion control fund is imminent.
This was revealed in a statement he released on Monday following a meeting with his constituents’ leaders.
The permission of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is pending, according to Ndume.
“This is the last stage. The President’s final permission is still pending, he stated.
Once the required approval was obtained, Ndume was optimistic that the projects would move forward.
Ndume has been widely praised for his development initiatives in Borno State and Nigeria in general by Musa Lawal Lubo, the Chairman of the Shani community.
