Senator Ali Ndume has called for salary slash for civil servants who no longer go to work due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Ndume who is the Senate Chairman committee on Army, gave this suggestion when he spoke at a media briefing in Maiduguri, the Borno state capital today June 8.


He said despite the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic, the state and Federal government are spending more to sustain personnel and non personnel cost. He opined that those who are not going to work now should be given palliatives and paid less.


''The government should critically look at the recurrent and personnel expenditure which consumes about 70% of the budget. More should be pumped into Capital. People should make sacrifice. This is the time to look at issues critically.


I think there should be more sacrifice especially on the personnel side. How can you sustain the same personnel and overhead cost when even the work they are doing, most people don't go to the office now and they are being paid fully for the month. Is there any justification for that?
If you can't work because of the pandemic, then you should be given palliatives and be paid less'' he said

bigiyaro:
the idiot should talk about the school feeding scam first.

Caseless:
we spend most of our budgetary allocation on recurrent expenditure - mostly on salary on an ineffective civil service. We can't continue like this.

betterpikinn:
Senseless senile old fool.

When you old fools can not use your head to put things right so that we can still keep the economy running even in the midst of the pandemic.
Why shut down everything in the first place?

Yet, you old fools are still the ones benefiting most in this pandemic.
Most countries in the world are spending less than 10 dollars to carry out covid test, Nigeria's stupid old fool leaders are claiming that they spend at least 50k to carry out a single test.

Russia spend 3 dollars to to produce a barrel of crude oil
Saudi spends 4 dollars
Angola our neighbors are spending 8 dollars.

Nigeria is the ONLY country in the world that claims to spend as much as 22 dollars! Yet, this FOOLISH and useless senators can not look into the senseless reason for such expenditure, na to slash workers salary dem Sabi.
7th largest producer of oil in the world yet, we don't have constant electricity for the past 60 years! Very pathetic!

During the heat of the lockdown, what insensitive did you give the workers?
They promised to not make us pay nepa for two months, that promise has gone into voicemail. IPPIS is slashing workers salaries ridiculously already and old fool Ndume still wants more slashes. How much of senators salary has been slashed?

This old generation FOOLISH leaders just continues to put us in mess because of their greed and stupîdity.
It will never be well with all of them.
