Reactions are coming out from nigeria's apex bank gov'nor - Mr. Sanusi and minister of finance - Mr. Aganga, on F. G's huge expences on nigeria's law makers. Is it worth for nigeria to have part-time law makers so as to reduce huge expenses on our legislature? This means that nigeria's law makers shall be paid per sitting.

Even if a part time legislative arrangement is made, Nigerians always know how to modify any circumstance to their advantage. You will be surprised that at the end of the day, they'll end up making more money than being full time lawmakers.

Realistically though, i do not think a part time arrangement will work out afterall the thought of a PART TIME PRESIDENT is almost unthinkable!

Having part time lawmakers is not d ultimate but repackaging/rebranding of oneself. This can only be well achieved if everybodi changes his/her altitude in Nigeria. If they are being paid per sitting and as well mind is currupt. Do u all think a square will be able to fit in a round hole?

Make the house least lucrative and we would get good law makers.

If not for anarchy and executive absolutism,i will have suggested the scrapping of the legislative arm.those guys are fucxtard.

Part-time legislature wont work. because Even with d full time legislature 70% of the bills has not been passed

@ bluetooth, if u scrap the legislature, it will result to fusion of the arms of govt and it becomes parliamentary not federal system of govt.

Even as it is, don't they attend the sessions on a part time basis?

Mscheeew!!

In naija,when you add the present executive to the present legislature to form a parliamentary system,the end result will be very disastrous.

What we need is not part time legislature but just to harmonize their payroll. I really don't know who should be responsible for this but what we need is to for synchronize their pay both salaries and allowances at a percentage of the National minimum wage. This will definitely make it unattractive and thus will give room for true leaders who have the mind for service to the pple, Plle who want to write their names in Gold in the history of Humanity to assume positions.

They should be paid as little as 250k per month

They shd b paid d same salary with level 15 fed worker

Kpom kwem!!!! Full stop. N18,000 minumum wage for the legislators. Did you see the face of that prisoner Omisore (typical crook/Agbero) trying to force Sanusi to appologise for saying the truth publicly?

They should be paid by the state they are representing and at the basic level since they will be working part time.

@ dapsse, yes they do on part time basis, are they paid per sitting? No. Now should they be paid per sitting?

Confetti u hv said it all. Our NASS members shd b paid d equivalent of a primary school teachers' salary using d national minimum wage scale.

babes ur too mush! however there has to be a caveat in place oh, some educational level reqd b4 every tom dike and harrietta say they wanna come form law

@Op yes

This people should be paid salary of a security guard, they are so lazy

@ seanet02, ordinary board member in a commission or parastatal, do u knw how much they earn. So law makers job is enormous than that. Just suggest how much they shld be paid per sitting if u agree

YES OOO Also there should be only one senator per state and 2 house of rep members per state. Else let the salaries of the current number of legislators be halved.

Lets have volunteer law makers to be rewarded at the age of 70 if they make it.

@ jamesugo, how do u mean?

Who cares if they are on Part Time? all we want is a legislative arm that is not the highest paid in the world while in the Productivity Arena, its the other way round. Lootmakersssssssssssssss

@ jamesugo, how do u mean?

I meant what the topic portrays.
but if you feel i got the meaning wrong,please kindly expanciate.
i would appreciate it.

At last Nigerians are becoming responsible people. We truly need part time lawmakers who earn the same salary as professors with no allowance attached be it sitting or standing allowance.
