In a statement released on Sunday, Mr Bankole issued the first authoritative confirmation of an intimidating payroll which the outgoing lawmakers approved for themselves alongside the Senate in 2010. Mr Bankole said the loan was not a personal facility but was sourced on the directive of the House to foot the large increment in quarterly allowances approved for each member. He said the directive was reached by a 37-member committee and endorsed by an executive session of the house. However, as Speaker and Deputy Speaker respectively, Mr Bankole and Usman Nafada, were not part of the proceeds from the loan since they already earned a whopping N100 million and N80 million quarterly each, the statement signed by Media Aide to Mr Bankole, Idowu Bakare said. "Before the increment quarterly allowance to the office of the Speaker was N100million while his deputy received N80 million. The loan in question was distributed among other principal officers and the remaining members of the House," the statement read. All feed fat In the distribution as shown in the statement, Mr Bankole and Mr Nafada's allowances remained at their initial N100 million and N80 million respectively, while those of the House Leaders rose from N46 million to N60 million. The Deputy Leader took N57 million instead of the former N43 million while the Chief Whip took N55 million instead of the initial N41 million. The deputy Whip received N54.5 million instead of N40.5 million and the Minority Whip took N50 million from N36 million. Other members, including the members of the so-called Progressives, led by Dino Melaye, who claimed the loan was not known to the House, collected N42 million instead of N28 million. In all, the differential of N14 million each for the 360 members, except for the Speaker and the Deputy, accounted for N5.012 billion and for two quarters which the loans were drawn, the amount became N10.024 billion with interest, the former speaker claimed. http://234next.com/csp/cms/sites/Next/Home/5711346-146/story.csp |

I can now understand why the so-called parliamentarians cannot restore hope to the hopeless. Can you imagine the million upon millions mentioned here in a country where the vast majority continues to facilitate within the exorbitant enthusiasm and irritational irritability. A country where the microscopic few that have piloted the affairs of this country lives in pleasantry luxury and protracted solicitude. I rest my case. |

It is a pity that an average civil servant cannot boast of that sum after 35 years of service but see what oga speaker received quaterly |
Re: How Bankole Shared N10 Billion Among House Members by Natasha2(f): 12:19pm On Jun 07, 2011 |

Nigeria is getting r a p e d daily or should i say quarterly by their leaders and yet we smile while suffering. A change can only be implemented by taking to the streets like they did in Egypt! But who wants to start it? |

Bankole is a young naija man, Is he not less than forty yrs? It simply tells us that we are in trouble in this country. Imagine that whooping sum as a quarterly allowance. Make God save me from high blood pressure from this kind news. When I can barely feed my family of 4. What a world? |

[WilyWily: Exposure is good. Naivety is a disease. All these ediot yoruba and igbo guys keep pointing fingers to each other while the main corrupt bastards, sit and laugh at them. Whatever a yoruba or igbo man embezzle is just a fraction of what an hausa man is sitting on. |
