The Revenue Mobilization, Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC) finally decided to publish details of the legitimate salaries and allowances carted home by the members of the National Assembly.

The publication came in form of a public notice signed by Usman I. Garndawa, the Acting Secretary of RMAFC, who decided to publish this so as to avoid misinformation and misrepresentation of facts.

It’s incredible that the court order was not a strong enough reason in the past. The facts he attempted to clarify included that it is wrong to lump all salaries and allowances into yearly totals because some of them are not yearly but are paid once in 4 years.

Those include furniture allowance and severance gratuities, while vehicle loan is optional and is expected to be repaid before the end of the tenure.

The RMFC has arranged the allowances received by senators and members of the house of representatives as released by RMAFC in the table below:

1. Accommodation: N4 million, N3.97 million

I now see a valid reason David Mark want to remain the "Mugabe" of Nigeria senate. The Nigeria state is totally in state of utter cataplesy with the catholicity of thieves everywhere. I feel highly comatosed when poor tribal champions castigate themselves on Nairaland and those you claim to defend enthocentrically trade your future and those Nigerians yet unborn. Spritually speaking, i now also see reasons young and sextually active couples struggle to bear children these days. Children have all bargain with GOD and refused to settle in this jungle made up of political criminals tagged NIGERIA except for the heavenly husler we see everyday. lol. Another questions that come to mind for nairaland tribalist is WHO IS A PROGRESSIVE? Is it the ACN senators and rep members that fail to agitate for a cut of these monies but satanically bank them at detriment of poor Nigerians but sneak to media houses to proclaim progressives or the PDP and CPC senators claiming to fight for Nigerians not to talk of the APGA and the judases in Labour party candidates that none have ever sponsor a bill even for the suffering working class. Whether IBO, YORUBA, HAUSA, IJAW etc the bottom line is an average Nigeria is a by-product of corruptible seed. Na GOD go punish all of them and those tribal warriors defending the thieving salamanders, na God, make..... I no talk because una suffering na enough punishment self

seen.....brb

There's a lot in politics. Prepare yourself for that time.

I believe that one day God will hear our cry and the downfall of these lawmakers will be swift...until then, new leaders to pilot d affairs of this nation in the nearest future are still going under transfromation....#truce

And I will say it again... Let these maggots and gays swear to amadioha or sango or any other deadly deities in the course of swearing in and use the Bible or koran.

I'm not sure a kobo will be mis-appropriated by any politician at all...

Bunch of rogues.
