Ndume spoke in an interview with Channels Television’s Politics Today on Tuesday.

He said, “Since day one, precisely last week Tuesday, when we moved into this Chamber that supposed to have been renovated, there have been complaints here and there.”
Reacting to Ndume’s argument, the President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio, however, explained that complaints on sitting arrangements among Senators have been sorted out 99.9%.
Akpabio said the contract for the renovation work was not done by the 10th National Assembly.
