Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The All Progressives Congress, APC, on Tuesday summoned Senator Ali Ndume to explain his recent utterances against President Bola Tinubu which led to his removal as Senate Whip.<\/p>\n

Speaking after the meeting, the National Chairman of the APC, Abdullahi Ganduje said the party was satisfied with Ndume\u2019s apology and would convey the same to the leadership of the Senate to have it review its position.<\/p>\n

Ndume was removed after the National Working Committee of the APC wrote the Godswill Akpabio-led Senate, complaining of the Borno senator\u2019s utterances against Tinubu.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are quite satisfied with his apology. As he said, we invited him and you know the party is the father of everybody. As a party, we are free to invite legislators, we are free to invite members of the executive, and we are even free to invite all the appointed party members in the government, so that is why we decided to come.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is a family issue, we need to resolve it and we are writing to the National Assembly conveying what has transpired between Senator Ndume and the party you know he apologized to the party and we will convey the same issue to the National Assembly, with the hope they can review their position,\u201d Ganduje said.<\/p>\n

On his part, Ndume conceded that rather than raising some issues on national television, he should have complained to the party leadership.<\/p>\n

He said; \u201cYesterday, I was invited to the party and here I am to discuss family matters. Actually, the national chairman is not just a national chairman to me but a father. With what has happened which you are all aware, it is not surprising that I was invited to hear my own side and we had family discussions and I actually accepted the mistake of not talking to the party as a last point and I promised the party that all my observations as a senior member of the family should have terminated or ended with the party. That is something that moving forward I will do but whatever I said or whatever I did was out of patriotism and those issues maybe said strongly but they are true but then I should have talked to the party as the last bus stop.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy membership, I have not been expelled, even the party did not say we don\u2019t want you here, because he is my father, the party is my father, the only thing the party said is that look if you don\u2019t want this house you can go to any house. Where will I go? This is my house.\u201d<\/p>\n
