A lawmaker representing Kogi state in the House of Representatives has threatened to take legal action against a Nigerian residing in the UK for taking to social media to make allegations about the salaries and allowances he receives as a sitting lawmaker.

Tendering his grievance on the floor of the house, the lawmaker said the UK-based Nigerian named Adeola, alleged on social media that he and other lawmakers receive basic salaries of N2.5 million per month, Furniture allowance of N7.5 million per month, Newspaper allowance of N1.2 million per month, wardrobe allowance of N631, 000 per month, accommodation allowance of N4.9 million per month, utility allowance of N828, 000 per month, personal assistance allowance of N621, 000 per month.

He stated that the same person in December 2023, alleged that a trailer of rice was given to lawmakers and asked Nigerians to ask for their own share from their lawmakers.

‘’If this house does not take a stand on this case against her, I, Elder Leke Joseph Abejide, will take it up with her because, in my own constituency, this is what is now spreading around that I take this amount. I put up my salary for the world to see. What is there that we are hiding? We are not hiding anything in these hallowed chambers.

I want to bet with you that there are some members that cannot survive more than five days with their salaries. Even before the end of the month comes, the request from your constituents has already taken everything and somebody who does not reside in Nigeria will be instigating the general public against us and then we will be quiet. This is the privilege that has been breached against me and by extension to all members of this house''

Life

I don't know how they do it but Kogi State manages to produce the worst animals as leaders.

Again, this event occurred decades ago. The event happened middle of last month. Folks on Twitter already knew, in fact, they already forgot it happened. Yh, that long is decades ago.

Urgent issues with current momentum are being discussed on the trending and new forums, but they're not being highlighted on the front page until they're no longer timely or until they become irrelevant.


Maybe tomorrow on front page. You will see “Tinubu declared winner of 2023 election.”

Nairaland should break news. That’s why viewership on the platform is at a low. Let Mod be properly paid and motivated to do their responsibility diligently. Review the diligence to include scouting for news on Twitter. Let this platform be where the news first got their steam.

I just want to see Nairaland work.

These are the thieves that don't want to approve a good salary minimum wage.

Clowns n thieves

Adeola no dey keep it real again oo

Na wa o...

This is only for APC and PDP legislators.

I trust LP they will not collect

So how much is your full salary?
Let's start from there!

Hehehe

Ok

As a blogger, get ur facts right b4 posti g shit

Noise makers.

Where is the real salary?

‘’If this house does not take a stand on this case against her, I, Elder Leke Joseph Abejide, will take it up with her because, in my own constituency, this is what is now spreading around that I take this amount. I put up my salary for the world to see. What is there that we are hiding?

You said you put up your salary for the world to see abi? Where did you put it up for us to see? In your toilet?

All these yeye Nigerian politicians will not see heaven

That boogyman must definitely be crazy, which kind story be this. I feel my brain just lost some momentum

Someone should tell the Honourable to please prove her wrong by showing us the true figure.

In 2018, then serving senator, Shehu Sani disclosed that each senator was being paid N13.5 million as running cost, in addition to N750,000 salary. (Daily Trust)

Obj had an issue with them that time because of money.

If there's nothing to hide, why not show us the real thing?

Meanwhile,

Repent, the kingdom of God is at hand and Jesus is coming soon

LP that beg for allowances. If you give those ones Innoson, they will fight you.

Does Nigeria even need this bi cameral system of govt? A poor country being run by greedy politicians using lopsided constition

Misplaced priorities

What is difficult for the lawmakers to paste the pay slip here?
