He also claimed that the Forum would soon confront Senate President Godswill Akpabio with the findings of experts it had engaged to scrutinize the 2024 budget and would meet President Bola Tinubu on the issues.
However, Ningi at a press conference told Senate Correspondents that the views he expressed during his interview were his personal opinion and not that of the Northern Senators Forum.
