Deputy Speaker Justifies N150b NASS Budget by arsenal1111(m): 10:06pm On Jun 16, 2015
Deputy Speaker of the House of
Representatives, Yusuf Lasun, has justified
the annual budget of N150 billion for the
National Assembly since 2010.
The amount was reduced to N120 billion in
the 2015 budget in the face of dwindling
federal revenue.
Lasun said the N150 billion, which many
Nigerians have criticised, is not much,
compared to the entire budget of Nigeria.
According to him, the amount is less than
three percent of the total budget of the
federal government, and the legislature, as a
separate arm of government, has its own
peculiarities.
“For the last three years, with the exception
of 2015, the budget of National Assembly has
been N150 billion, that is exactly 2.67 per
cent of the total budget of the federation.
“The budget of the National Assembly is 2.67
per cent of the budget of the federation and
so it is not overblown.
“People have suddenly forgotten and don’t
know that there are 469 members in the
National Assembly with each one having five
aides paid from the N150 billion, with their
technocrats.
“We have National Assembly commission, all
of them draw their salaries and allowances
from the N150 billion.
“When people talk, they say it is only the
House of Representatives members and the
Senators that collect the N150 billion but
they forget that in the 2015 budget, the
money has been reduced to N120 billion,”
Lasun said.
