A National Assembly source, told our correspondent on the condition of anonymity, that the Toyota SUV, which was given out for N1 million only, was purchased at the contract sum of between N24 million and N26 million when it was supplied to the lawmakersThe crazy laws that bestowed what manner of power these senators wade in our nation should be put to an end with immediate effect. We don't want anymore impunity in our nation. This is nothing but greediness. We say no to these wastages. A better Nigeria is all we want. obembet:We really hope not. The below will really go a long way to sanitize our nation. a) Abolish CONSTITUENCY PROJECT FUNDS b) Reduce number of ADVISERS to SENATE PRES(2), HOUSE SPEAKER(2), GOVs(4), PRESIDENT(5), VP(2) c) Reduce current ALL Political Office Holders pay CHEQUES by 51.5%, without exception d) Do away with special remuneration to POLITICAL ADVISERS & PUBLIC SERVANTS e.g; Purchase of Private Vehicles, Houses, granting Govt paid Vacations, paying for 1st & Business Class Transportations, etc, etc... e) Abolish payment of OVERSEAS MEDICAL BILLS for Political Office Holders. f) Eliminate PRIVATE PRACTICE in public workforce g) Eliminate participation of Public Workforce in Partisan Politics. h) Institute EMPLOYMENT BY MERIT, and eliminate UNDEREMPLOYMENT. i) Review and eliminate allocation of Govt paid POLITICAL AIDES & SUPPORT STAFF to Political Office Holders. We pray we get there someday! 49 Likes 10 Shares

As a country we really need to redefine some of our laws, the truth is, the sales of those properties is backed by law, in private companies generally, some devices and official cars depreciate and it is expected that at the end of the third year, the value of these cars is almost next to nothing and it is sold at a ridiculous (depreciated value) price to staff, the same practice is what is used in the House of Assembly. However, there is excessive wastage in governance in Nigeria, if this guys will exit after 4 years and these properties sold, why purchase a car worth 24 million Naira and not something cheaper, why do we have an overbloated NA, retinue of assistants when there are begging and more serious needs. Giving the mirade of problems facing the nation, there is no urgency in governance at all levels to effect change, growth if at all will always be insignificant compared to the problems. The worst part which these guys have achieved is that they have constrained the thoughts of the populace, divide them on ethnic and religious lines, the vast majority of the citizens no longer think rationally, because the are now used to a wrong norm, everyone accept what is wrong as norm. There is a need for emancipation from the strong hold of the political elite, renew our minds to what is acceptable norm and forge a common struggle for the prosperity of our nation. Until then, it’s so-so. 21 Likes 2 Shares |

Even as a former Military General, buhari is still unable to secure Nigeria better than Jonathan. There are lots of corrupt politicians in Government, but MagU/EFCC spends all their time running after Yahoo Boys. When you give crown to a fool, he will use it to drink palmwine. 17 Likes 2 Shares |

Please tell us something new. This ain't no news. They do it at the end of every NASS tenure. Btw, it's not peculiar to NASS alone. State HsOA also do it. Legislation in Nigeria is too expensive and corruption has worsened the whole situation. 8 Likes 1 Share |
