Agom Jarigbe, abruptly ended a live TV interview on Arise News Channel's breakfast show when questioned about the 2024 Budget.
Drama unfolded as the senator admitted to not scrutinizing the budget line by line, leading to a tense exchange with the anchor who expressed astonishment at his lack of familiarity with the details.
Senator Jarigbe, feeling embarrassed, redirected the conversation to his constituency representation, emphasizing his desire to serve quietly without facing 'wahala' (trouble).
The interview concluded abruptly as the senator disconnected, raising speculation about political accountability and the Senate's recent suspension of Senator Abdul Ningi over budget-related remarks.
