Trouble appears to be brewing in the Senate as Senator Ali Ndume who was Tuesday removed as the leader of the senate insist he maintains his position in the upper legislative chamber.
The senate had Tuesday removed Ndume and appointed Senator Ahmed Lawan representing Yobe North in the Senate as the new senate leader.
Ndume described as laughable, the report of his removal as the Senate leader, insisting he still remain the leader of the Upper Legislative Chamber.
Ndume, in a press briefing on Tuesday shortly after the news of his removal broke, said he is unaware of his removal by the APC Senate Caucus.
It is recalled that Senators of the All Progressives Congress (APC) have removed Senator Muhammed Ali Ndume, representing Borno South Senatorial District of Borno State as leader of the Senate.
The removal is contained in a letter addressed to the Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki.
The letter, which was read on the floor of the chamber during the plenary on Tuesday, announced Senator Ahmed Lawan alos from Borno state as the new majority leader.
