Video: “They are buying it already” – Ali Ndume speaks about 10th nass leadership

A lawmaker representing Borno South Senatorial District, Ali Ndume has alleged that politicians have started buying leadership positions of the incoming 10th National Assembly.

According to him, democracy no longer exists as the positions in the country are now being bought by “kleptocrats and plutocrats.”

The All Progressives Congress (APC) lawmaker as gathered by Naija News made this revelation when he was featured on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics.

Ndume, who has been in the National Assembly for 20 years explained that part of the act of buying positions was the reason he pushed for an “Unexplained Wealth Act” to deal with corrupt politicians with suspicious wealth.

He said “There should be an Unexplained Wealth Act so that if you display wealth that is not in tandem with your income, you should be investigated and (the wealth) confiscated and if it is extensive, you should be prosecuted.

“Now, you can see what is happening, they are trying to buy the position. The position in the leadership of this country is becoming those that belong to kleptocrats and plutocrats. Democracy is no longer there.

“They are buying it already. Didn’t you the accusation that they are sharing money? And I was even thinking in the last election if I had more money, I would have won. I don’t have money.”
