Obasanjo To Visiting Senators: It Is Bad For You To Decide What You Earn (VIDEO) by DesChyko: 10:45am On Aug 11

Speaking to Senators on a courtesy visit, the former president of Nigeria, Olusegun Obasanjo, told them point blank, that the practice of them fixing their earnings is moral.

"Look at in your own case, with all due respect, you are not supposed to fix your salary or your allowances. It is supposed to be done by the RMAFC. But you decide what you pay yourselves"

The former president went on to list a number of allowances, including fictitious ones with an aim to show how irrelevant they are in the grand scheme of things.

"And you know it is not right. It is not right! It is not right for me to decide what I pay myself. It is immoral. And then, you are doing it!"

"In some cases, even the executive gives you what you are not entitled to. You all got 200 million naira"

RMAFC should be held responsible for this breach

When he had the time to change all that was necessary, but no he decided to lick the asses of northern elders. Now, he want to be relevant by putting unnecessary pressure on the Senate, if it was easy he could have done it when he had the chance.

Why do you guys talk abi na write sef without memory or history.

OBJ almost sent them packing or reduced to part time politicians when they rose up ready to impeach him.

This is the cause of mismanagement, high inflation and devaluation in Nigeria borrowing to pay the most obscene salaries and allowances in the world.

Instead of mass Protest on minimum wage that is going to increase the prices of goods and services sending us back to where we started,

Obnoxious politicians salaries and allowances should be cause of Mass Protests.

The problems of Nigeria are known.. it was a progressive decay over a long period and they are not stopping.

These ones don't have to steal, they take it with backing of the law. If you now add those stealing illegally then you would understand why the EFCC chairman said he wondered how the country is still standing.

It's an elite ruling-class madness going on.

But it won't be forever.
