The elections have come and gone, now the newly elected lawmakers in Abuja are now faced with the in-flocks of female markers sent by Commercial banks to open discussions on investments and other business deals.


According to PUNCH, Commercial banks in and around Abuja have sent sweet-talking, mostly female marketers to persuade the lawmakers to open an account with them. PUNCH report showed that the International Conference Centre, which was the venue for the ongoing induction course for new arrivals on Monday was flooded with marketers from different banks.

Some of the smartly dressed marketers also offered loan opportunities they claimed their banks could guarantee with “friendly repayment terms.

Meanwhile, over 290 members of the House for example, are newcomers, out of the total of 360.
In the Senate, about 69 senators are also newcomers, out of 109.

Findings showed that the marketers started tracing the lawmakers since Sunday night when Senate President, David Mark, declared the induction programme open at the Transcorps Hotel, Abuja.

According to a legislative aid on Monday, “They flooded the Congress Hall of the hotel Sunday night.
“They didn’t give the lawmakers breathing space, as they offered all sorts of facilities (loans) and seeking to maintain their accounts,” a senior legislativ

A member of the House earns around N27.9m every quarter as official allowance.
Presiding officers and other principal officers receive higher figures.
This excludes a monthly salary of N1m.

Senators collect over N30m as quarterly allowance and receive higher salaries than their House counterparts.

Information gathered showed that the practice over time was for the banks to compete among themselves to attract as many of the lawmakers as possible to maintain the lawmakers’ accounts.

“In the end, many lawmakers get loans in amounts ranging from N50m to upward of N200m.
“They will be here for four years and it is understandable that the banks see this as a window for quick returns,” one National Assembly official told The PUNCH.

One marketer, who gave her name simply as Elina, told The PUNCH that there was nothing wrong with seeking for “investment opportunities.”

She argued that being new in Abuja, most of the members needed information on sources of funding to assist them in settling down for the business of legislation.
“We know how it is; there will be accommodation challenges.
“Some need funding for transportation even before they get their official votes for vehicles and other support services.
“So, the banks are there to provide these support services by way of funding,” she added.

The National Assembly and its bureaucracy, including the National Assembly Service Commission, has a total budget of N120bn this year.

The figure was a drop from the N150bn it had enjoyed since 2007.

Most female bankers are corporate pros!!!

Any physical combat involved cos dis pple matter na fight sha dem go turn man trouser to skirt for am wen fight begin

This is a really bad practice. There needs to be a standards board that checks the excesses of banks and other institutions. This is a terrible practice and those pressuring these girls must be exposed and asked to pay settlement for exploiting these women. Nigerian bank executives are no better than unscrupulous, slave driving pimps

La money nah banker la pussy la fucker
