I don't remember what Ahmed Lawan said in his speech but Ndume's speech was quite sound and purposeful.

It's interesting that the PDP endorses a North-North ticket for leadership of NASS with their support of Ndume and Bago but a lot of people who have been on the neck of the APC/Buhari for not having national spread in their endorsements are very mute.
Double standards anyone? pic.twitter.com/GgmFNvpD2M

Ali Ndume is dangerous, damn dangerous!
We (@OfficialAPCNg) should not be carried away with endorsements especially from the @OfficialPDPNig side

To be honest the main reason I support Ndume is because he is a fighter and cannot be easily cowed, his stubbornness made him contest even against the powers that be in APC , Nigeria needs such person in the legislature not a rubber stamp

Ali Ndume and Ahmed Lawal re both not qualified to be our Senate president,they don't have the charisma to lead the upper chamber… We can not go from a very sound and serious minded Bukola Saraki to Ndume or Lawal…very bad for Nigeria!
