Former Senate Leader, Senator Ali Ndume, has rolled out a nine-point agenda for the coveted office of Senate President he is vying for in the ninth Senate billed for inauguration in June.
Releasing his agenda for 9th Senate Presidency, Ndume who has been in the National Assembly since 2003 promised to improve upon the performance of the 8th Senate adding that he will make the Office of the Senate President less attractive by reducing the unnecessary privileges attached to the office. Ndume said he will prioritise and ensure the passage of the Constituency Development Bill to make “constituency projects more transparent, accountable, efficient and effective”.
Other issues on the Ndume for Senate President Agenda include; ” to make laws that will block leakages and devise improved means of generating revenue, especially through the amendment and review of our tax laws which will help to reduce reliance on local and foreign loans to finance budget”.
