we don't seem to be getting it right over this NASS emoluments, I think the RMAFC is the body with the responsibility of fixing the emoluments of elected public officials while the NWISC takes care of the emoluments career appointed public servants,the RMAFC is the body that should be tackled, who amongst us would voluntarily accept a downward review of earnings today?,the exe cutive media induced hatred for the other arms of government appears to be clouding our judgement on issues most times thus rendering our views as worthless noise simply because of shadow chasing.

nobody is going to touch their salaries be realistic. No political will to do that, no even enough pressure from the citizens. Having said that, Buhari has not delivered his election promises and therefore must lose the 2019 elections. So that Nigeria's politicians become fully aware who the power belongs to.

U are shouting 2019 as if anything good will come out of it..Bring in anybody it will still be d same old story because d system of governance is faulty. These politicians av amass so much wealth dat u will see dem flaunting fleet of classic cars in their garage,sending their children abroad 4 education and going 4 medical vacation.they no send u..u can continue shouting 2019..OYO lo wa

Our legislators just want to cripple our economy, i doubt if they will reduce their allowance.

This is no longer news to public hearing and outcry, let this be enacted and passed in the law.

Wth these present remuneration of Nigeria senators, politics shall continue to be a do-or-die affair.

dont be foolish. Im talking about voting out a failed leader because of his failed promises and youre telling me what exactly? the system is faulty. Was it not in Buharis manifesto to restructure Nigeria? Was it the system that stopped him? Is Buhari not the system even? There are few men in Nigeria today that can make Nigeria great and if God wills 1 of them to run, I will glady dash him my vote to clear my conscience.

only revolution can save nigeria. but who wan die

With each passing day, I inch towards the conclusion that this country is just not SALVAGEABLE. Like Ladi Thompson said, the country was set up to FAIL from the very beginning, it is all there in the COLONIAL archives. Some have already begun to put down their lives. Those youths who rose in defense of Nnamdi Kanu with stones, bottles and sticks and were killed by the Nigerian army are an example. Their deaths must NOT be in vain.

The Initiator and Chairman, Movement for Nigeria’s Total Transformation, Chief Areoye Oyebola, has decried the non-responsiveness of Nigerian federal lawmakers to the widespread call for the downward review of their “monumental salaries and allowances.”

According to Oyebola, the recent criticism of the federal legislators by the Chairman of the Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption, Prof. Itse Sagay (SAN), was just one of many criticisms that had trailed the lawmakers over the years but to which they had turned deaf ears.

He recalled that he had raised the same issue in a publication, tagged, “Grave Issues Nigeria Must Tackle,” which was publicly presented at a gathering that had in attendance eminent Nigerians such as a former Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Fashola(SAN); human rights lawyer, Femi Falana (SAN); and Prof. Pat Utomi.

Oyebola had, in the presentation, decried what he described as the insensitivity of the lawmakers, who he said, were living large in the midst of widespread poverty in the country.

He noted then that the earnings of the United States of America’s President were far lower than what a Nigerian lawmaker took home.

He had said, “It is also strange, unthinkable and very disheartening that a senator, not minding the grinding poverty of Nigerians, earns $1.7m a year, which is far higher than the $400,000 yearly income of the United States’ President, whose stupendous country is the richest in the world. Even a member of the House of Representatives also earns more than the American President. What a tragic and pathetic situation!

“Worse still, each of our National Assembly members earns more than the British Prime Minister, while the pay of a member of Ghana’s unicameral legislature is a very small fraction of our House of Representatives’ member jumbo pay of more than N10m in a month, let alone the monumental quarterly allowances that have led to serious public outcry.

“The multi-million naira earned by the leadership of the Senate and the House of Representatives even worse, more outrageous and mind-boggling.”

Oyebola noted that despite their modest pay, compared to the Nigerian federal lawmakers, the legislators in Ghana worked harder and “have minimal absenteeism,” while they had also done much to sustain their country’s democracy, “which is a model for many African countries.”

He said the Ghanaian lawmakers were also more sensitive to the realities in their country, recalling that an attempt by them to have a raise in earnings in 2009 was immediately jettisoned following a public outcry.

Oyebola called for a 90 per cent cut in the earnings of Nigerian elected public officials, saying with that they would still be richer than their counterparts in the US and the UK.

He said, “As suggested below, for the National Assembly, the President, ministers, state governors, state legislators, chairmen of local governments and councillors should have their pay and allowances reduced to 10 per cent of their present earnings. If effected, each senator’s present earnings of N15m a month will be reduced to N1.5m or N18m a year. A similar 90 per cent reduction should be effected from the pay of members of the House of Representatives.”

According to him, this is the only way to ensure that politics would no longer be a matter of do-or-die.

No politician in nigeria earns more money than an American president.

and yet civil servants keep earning peanuts...

until we arise as true brothers and sisters devoid of tribalism and religion...until we arise in unison to call these thieving politicians to order, nothing will happen

If its upward review they would've echoed it,milking us dry with no pity,ndi obiakpo

Oponu...was it not in jonathan's manifesto to transform Nigeria? But here we are complaining abt d same problems..who are d few men dat make Nigeria great?..Did u think jonathan or Buhari never had d notion to make Nigeria great before they came into governance?...so every segment of d country need to come 2geda and agreed on how to be governed...not dis lopsided mode of governance..

so this geh you dunno that poor leadership is the bane of Nigeria's development. Do you need a pastor or a white man to say this before you believe it?

For me anyone that calls Nigeria a Zoo is a coward. They lacks what to do to make Nigeria great that's why they tag it zoo. If only the dilector pushed his agitation towards Nigerian public office holders to cut back their pay to 10% their current pay. I would have joined him during his protest. But he chose the easier way which is to join the looters to destroy a nation.

What do you mean by that statement? The salary and allowance of the US President is public knowledge they even buy their own food from their salary and only the white house and transportation is provided by the US government are you saying no Nigerian politician earns more than $400,000 annually.

nnabyke042:
Wow...but nigerians deserve it though.

U dey craze, how we take deserve am? It's like your brain is soaked in urine.

bakynes:
Even the Bible has given us the solution to our problem which is to take what rightfully belong to us by force by violence. Nothing will change in this country not even another idiot coming in the next election to lie to us. If things must change in Nigeria, we need to overhaul the whole system by violent revolution and rebuild our political space with entirely different set of people and laws.

The Police, Army are the ones in btw the masses and the politicians preventing us from achieving this revolution even though they are the most affected earning peanuts as salary and guarding this politicians who do nothing to earn such ridiculous pay.

No they are not, it is tribalism, Nnamdi Kanu presented a unique opportunity for a revolution, but because na my brother dey there, we could not key into his movement, it is clear that the average hausa and Yoruba man are also suffering, I think the best thing you people should have done is to collectively tell Nnamdi Kanu at least pay him a visit and tell him that you understand his anger and frustration and you don't approve of what is happening in this country, then go back and immidiately start a sort of revolution, Buhari cannot be fighting Boko Haram, Niger delta Militants IPOB, and more importantly the youthful revolutionary masses at the same time and win, the northerners that visited Nnamdi kanu initially, go and watch the video and listen very carefully you will see that he is not actually against Nigeria and per a country but he wants to see people rallying round to effect changes, as charity begins at home, he started in his own home, and you and I know very well that the only thing that can move an Igbo man to actions without pay is Biafra. Unfortunately the opportunity is flying by.

That is not how to start a revolution, by fighting for your own people only, he is fighting for Biafra not a good governance revolution, Nigerians are ready to back any individual regardless of his tribe to execute this revolution, tu-face was going to start it, all youths from different tribes stood with him initially before he tracked back.

Nnamdi is a Biafran revolutionist not a Nigerian revolutionist stopped twisting facts.

Our country is fuckkss up.

Is it new to you?

Look at Dino melayes garage and to and check where he reprise t. We all know he is not from a rich family neither did his father leave any estate to him

Running it in our faces.

Damn fools.

Spits.

The Salary of the American president is around 400k USD which is small, But salary and take home ain't the same.

The salary of Nigerian politicians are also small, I remember some years ago governors in nigeria earned 1 million naira per month as salary.

All politicians worldwide have small salaries, but bribes, allowances, cornering of funds meant for some projects, inflation of projects costs n stuffs like that is where they make mega money from.

Don't be fooled that an American president makes 33k USD per month, don't even go there.


Politicians are a worldwide problem, they are all known as thieves.

You don't know the hell what you are talking about if you think the US President takes bribes, corner funds meant for projects, inflate contracts. I just told you their salary is public knowledge and with allowances comes up to about 500k per annum and he buys his own food from his salary, stop projecting your rotten corrupt country behavior on other countries that takes accountability in government serious. Senators and Governors and members of Congress have been arrested by the FBI and given long prison sentences in the US for crimes of corruption that would be seen as no big deal in Nigeria.

At least the remuneration of public office holders is out in the open for the public's knowledge and they accept for them to earn such pay. Besides the pay they earn is in tangent with the economy and the standard of living of the Average American but the same cannot be said about the Nigerian public office holders who earn so very much renumerations compared to the economy and standard of living of the average Nigerian.

This type of thinking is exactly why this country will remain the way it is. The hate against Nnamdi Kanu is a product of the tribalism I earlier talked about. The best is just to go and look for another country's passport.

See this nigga trying to portray Nnamdi Kanu the known tribalist number one in Nigeria as a Nigerian revolunist, he is fighting for the Biafran cause not the emancipation of the Nigerian people in general.

Don't quote me if you can't prove me wrong.
