The Northern Senators Forum (NSF) has called for calm among Northerners against the backdrop of agitations and misgivings over the alleged unequal allocation and distribution of funds in the 2024 budget, and planned relocation of Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) headquarters and some key departments of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), from Abuja to Lagos.

The Northern Senators said they were committed to addressing the concerns and feelings of their constituents in the North regarding the decisions and policies put forth by the federal government, including seeking a legal redress if possible.

A statement by signed by the group’s spokesperson, Senator Suleiman Kawu Sumaila, representing Kano South Senatorial District, for and on behalf of NSF, on Monday, emphasised the importance of fostering a harmonious relationship between the government and its citizens, adding that it was in that spirit that they were announcing their collective efforts to seek an amicable resolution to the pressing issues within the confines of the 1999 constitution and existing laws.

“As representatives of the people at the national level (Senate), we are committed to addressing the concerns and feelings of our constituents regarding certain decisions and policies put forth by the federal government – lopsidedness in the distribution and allocation of resources in the 2024 budget, relocation of some federal agencies from Abuja to Lagos.

“We understand the importance of fostering a harmonious relationship between the government and its citizens, and it is in this spirit that we are announcing our collective efforts to seek an amicable resolution to these pressing issues, within the confines of our constitution and existing laws.
