That is the problem of politicising institutions.. If issue of corruption arises in an institution it should be isolated and treated as such. Not trying to condemn the whole institution probably because you do not flow in the same frequency. Some of these senators were probably supporter of the 'National Assembly is the most corrupt arm of government' when some happenings then did not favour them while the new ones were yet to know what was actually going on then.

'A minister would no go to Lagos with leg' but so long as the alleged bogus transportation allowances and co senator receive remain like that, we will maintain the name that has already been given.. No need to change name when the situation has not changed..

why wont they?

when most of them who had looted thier states dry

arantess:
They need to make legislation a part time thing, then many of them will lose interest

WHY? People who are ready to actually SERVE Nigeria (rather than themselves) will gladly work full-time for a reasonable salary...
>

It then follows that the senators wound resort to extra-legislative means to augment their salaries.

And many still wish to die in the chambers. I then wonder why

Ouk take it easy onyourcomment's, Its just onemonths experience you have.

If you are not satisfied with your pay check,pls resign!

Mr Kalu, if what you earn is small compared to what other people who slave for government in this country and still can't take care of his family, let Amadioha strike out that your mouth before you finish that four years in the Senate. Nonsensical nonsense

Nobody is forcing the office on them. If you don't like your job, Oya quit the job na.. See the way orji mouth bend like orji road.

NONSENSE

arantess:
They need to make legislation a part time thing, then many of them will lose interest

But who will do that? Even Mr integrity cannot try such and it is one of those things his followers are expecting him to do.

Bunch of liars,you all bought your way to the senate.They are checking how to recoup what they spent during the elections,soon with the way things are going,senators paying lip service to insecurity and economic melt down of this country,there will be aggressive request for accountability by Nigerians.

If they are disappointed we would be glad to have such as take home every year. They should cut it and pls let those with servant leader spirit come and serve their people. The idiots are more concerned about salary.

This thief no de tire? In fact the next protest should be a reduction in the amount paid to senators and house of assembly members.

Since they are not impressed with their salaries,let them go work in factories na....nonsense and ingredient senators.

Small salaries and BIG BENEFITS. Sinators we hail ona ooooo!!!!

Nigerian leaders..smh.criminals such as Orji Uzor Kalu have no business in the senate..

BENARI:
When did this one become senator that he is already lecturing us about the Senate. Just one month, and You already know every every abi?
This clown of a man won't cease to amuse me;
Honestly!

He is a second term senator

This here is why we will never have leaders.. We will be stuck with people that their salary comes first before us..

Nukilia:
Politicians in Nigeria are just greedy! You serve the people in 4 years and earn more than a civil servant who has worked for 35 years...

don't mind the donkey! the state buys your food and everything, who buys my own? rubb1sh? by the way what are you travelling to all the states for? how many meetings are you supposed to attend and how come you guys don't even make any impact? make this man no let me vex ooo

So he have received his June salary already?, where as some states are still owing their workers for months

You think you can be deceiving me with your lie, is only a fool that will fall for your lie.

eh gbam! You see why Nigerians don't want past leaders especially the Emperor's Governors at the National Assembly.They cannot represent the Masses but their selfish interest.Maxi Kalu-what people want you to list out is your Salary per year and your Jumbo Allowances one after the other,including the payment of foreign Currencies and Estacodes in traveling outside Nigeria as well as the so called Constituency Allowance .
its unfortunate that what many of us are gullible is Salary,Salary and refused to understand that allowance is key part of National Assembly.Orji Uzor Nigerians they wait you O when you you will come with your own theory of National Assembly pay packages.God bless Nigeria.

Which constituency are you people running, constituency of Nollywood oloshos you people mess around with?
I repeat, Nigeria is a shiit hole country.
The youths of a failed amalgamation are also stupid by allowing themselves to be drag into sociopolitical hiccups created by the elites instead of fighting for a better life.
Corruption
Banditry
Terrorism
Kidnapping
Fraudsters
All in one country, I weep for nigeria.

You people should resign and go home immediately.
Criminals!

After making himself billionaire as a governor do you expect him to satisfy with 2wenty something million?
Criminal unless they pay him million of $ that is when he will satisfy

This one na criminal right from time.....so I'm not disappointed with his atrocious remark.

iornenge81:

He is a second term senator

His first term must have been in Venezuela then, not in Nigeria

Well said bro after that they still creat a huge pension package for themselves. Even worse they go on to become senators and earn pension as a former governor and salary as a current senator.Nigerian politicians are dangerous.

bunch of irredeemable and insatiable thieves!

emirate0:
