Borno South senator Ali Ndume on Saturday said President Bola Tinubu’s recent appointment of northerners to key Federal Government agencies has addressed his concerns about imbalance in appointments.
He said, “President Tinubu is someone who surrenders to constructive criticisms.
“I have known him to be a fair-minded, cosmopolitan person. I could recall that our leaders in the North, including my humble self, who felt jolted over recent appointments into key federal positions, raised our voices, screaming against the perceived imbalances.
“The hallmark of a good leader and statesman is to quickly adjust himself when he takes a decision or makes a policy pronouncement that a large section of the people finds unpopular and uncomfortable with.
“President Ahmed Bola Tinubu has demonstrated several times that he is a responsive leader.”
