DO YOU KNOW THE HUGE AMOUNT OF MONEY A NIGERIAN SENATOR GETS EVERY MONTH
The Nigerian
Senate house stated that each an every member of the
Chamber is receiving the amount of more than
13.5 million Naira as
''Running cost'' every month.
According to one of the senate member, he said
''apart from this amount of money,
each member
is receiving N700,000 monthly salary apart from other
Allowances.
This
confession from Senator Shehu Sani was
also confirmed by his
fellow
senate member Senator Sahabi Ya'u who's the spokesperson of the
of the
senate.
''The
senator did not reveal any new information regarding the salary
and other
allowances becuase these information is
included in the budget
of the
Federal House of Assembly, which everyone knows of'' says Senator Ya'u
The
statement came as a result of the criticism from Nigerians who
Criticized
the members for receiving such a mantle amount and
yet they do nothing to the citizens they are
representing.
In the past
The members of the house of assembly were asked of the
amount they
do receive as their salaries but they refused to reveal the
amount
This is
happening when some large amount of Nigerians are suffering from
extreme
poverty as a consequence of the increase of commodities and the cost of living.
