The Federal Airports Authority (FAAN) and the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) have stated that moving parts of their departments from Abuja to Lagos is a bad idea, according to Senate Chief Whip Senator Ali Ndume.
Ndume emphasized how crowded Lagos is.
The Borno Senator signed a statement that said: “I stand by what I’ve said about the relocation of FAAN and some departments of the CBN to Lagos State. If it is about decongestion, Lagos is not the right place.
“There are CBN offices in all the states of the Federation. Why move the departments to Lagos that is already populated?
“Since my intervention, people have been using a particular newspaper to attack me and saying that I hate the Yorubas. They’re ignorant and they don’t know what they’re saying.”
