Except a deliberate legislation by legislators themselves is drafted to reduce salary expensies of legislators, there's no way Buhari can go out of his way to reduce National Assembly Members salaries without risking constitutional battle. The National assembly is an independent arm of government, not an appendage of the executive. For now, the President has no powers to slash salaries of National Assembly members. 19 Likes |

would be glad if he carries that out but as major466 has rightly mentioned it will be a hard task for him but wish he can accomplish that cause those money mongrels are one of the reasons our country is still this way. So much to squander on them with little or no input from them. 5 Likes |

lyntiffany:If Nigerians of all walks of life rally round to demand National Assembly members cut down their salary packages, am sure they will heed to the call. Its the duty of all Nigerians to hold their lawmakers responsible. 23 Likes 1 Share |

They need to slash the number of states and number of stupid senators and legislators, beginning with the useless Abia state and senate-elect Orji. If not, these rogues will continue to destroy this part of the world and the people are too local to do anything about it 1 Like |

At this rate, we have to constitutionalize the ratio of the budget that goes to recurrent and capital spendings. Recurrent expenditure shouldn't be beyond 30% of the budget. It's for our own good. 1 Like |
