Abuja – There are indications that the Presidency has setup a committee to investigate reports that American reality TV star, Kim Kardashian, was paid $500,000 for a 45 second appearance on stage in Nigeria.

Sources in Aso Rock indicate that the president and lawmakers are concerned that if true, the exorbitant appearance-fee - in a nation where most citizens have to eke out a living on less than $1 a day - sets the wrong example.

In a leaked copy of a press-release on the matter, Chief Presidential spokesman, Reuben Abati, described the celebrity’s fee as outrageous, contemptuous, and aggravating.

He accused the show organisers of recklessness, insensitivity, lacking in professionalism, and of setting a bad example.

He called the decision to pay Miss Kardashian half a million dollars, unforgivably wasteful.

The committee members are expected to fly to America on a fact finding mission.

Due to the moral implications of their missions’ findings, the Presidency has swiftly approved a budget of $5million dollars for the committee to enable them do a thorough job, so that such wastefulness would not occur in Nigerian in the future.

Apparently the Nigerian Federal Govt are not happy about the $500K paid to Kim as appearance fee. Therefore they have now approved $5 million dollars for a committee to investigate. " "Due to the moral implications of their missions’ findings, the Presidency has swiftly approved a budget of $5million dollars for the committee to enable them do a thorough job, so that such wastefulness would not occur in Nigerian in the future."" If this is true i think our Federal Govt dont have other important things to do. or just look for excuse to loot. Was it govt money, No, did they force the people to pay Kim the money from their own pocket No. Anyone can spend their money anyway they like. Please can someone tell me who is wasteful here.

Typical example of setting a thief to catch a thief. Ndi ara.

Kim was paid tithe of what the Federal governement released for investigation!

Who is more wasteful here....SMH!

Wait a minute, just 45 Seconds of stage appearance for $500,000?

I guess its more than appearing on stage matter......the girl didn't come for the show then, the money must have enticed her....well, with the money, she can open a tera boutique in Naija as she proposed!

This must be the joke of the century. If true, then GEJ's men are after the estacode associated with such meaningless committees! Come on... was it public money that was used to finance the KimKard appearance? Let private enterprise flourish please! God bless Nigeria.
