Ali Ndume, the Senator representing Borno South Senatorial, has condemned the planned relocation of certain departments of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) from Abuja to Lagos.

According to the Senator, President Bola Tinubu is being misinformed by “political cartels” to make wrong decisions.

While speaking during an interview with Channels Television, he said Tinubu is being ill-advised by “Lagos boys” in the corridors of power.

He said: “All these Lagos boys who are thinking that Lagos is Nigeria are just misinforming and advising the President wrongly.

“Those political cartels that are in the corridors of power are trying to misinform the President and we will tell the President. The President will take action.

“They are not doing any favour to Mr President because this will have political consequences.”

Part of the CBN departments targeted for relocation are the Banking Supervision, Other Financial Institutions Supervision, Consumer Protection Department, Payment System Management Department, and Financial Policy Regulations Department.
