The All Progressives Congress (APC) on Wednesday asked Ali Ndume, senator representing Borno south, to resign from the party.

The APC made the requests in a letter sent to Senate President Godswill Akpabio.

The APC accused Ndume of making hurtful comments against the administration of President Bola Tinubu.
