Even civil servants' salaries will be affected. ASUU salaries will also be affected. The way the Nigerian government increased since 2009 was very unrealistic. The reality is now hitting the government.

This will really limit this do-or-die attitude of our politicians.
Plausible move.

The allowances are the problem. Please, they need to stop providing them with cars, maid service and all their comforts. Let them use their salary to fund their extravagant lifestyles. If they dont like it, they can reject their mandate. The salary is not bad. Its the allowances that are the problem. If they think they need aides to say aye or nay, let them pay for that out of their pocket. Foolish thieves. undecided

personally both d salary n allowances r not d problem, but d problem is d unseen kick backs they get through d back door. reduce their allowances n salary, d kick backs will increase.

you cannot change the salary of the legislators now.
that will be like moving the goal posts during a fooball match!
some of them contested because of the salary and terms and conditions of service!
you cannot unilaterally change the condition of service just like that!
this rmfac should wait till 2019 before they can touch legislator salary!
What bloody terms and conditions?? They weren't employed, they were either elected or appointed into the various offices they are holding

Right step in the right direction but i see d lawmakers countering it. Although this is one of the things SARAKI promised to look into. Political office holders salaries should be CONSOLIDATED just as OBJ did for some MDA's. God bless Nigeria.

I see some senators frustrating the whole exercise. I wish them good luck on their white elephant project
It's a waste of time and resources....senators & reps make their monies from oversight functions on MDA's and contracts.

I will not comment yet, until I see what the committee comes up with.

Slashing a 50 naira pay to 40 naira pay is nothing. You get?

Meanwhile, where have you been?sad

Actually, the review will be upward. for 2008 act. I bet if you check, you will even agree it be reviewed upward. The beauty of it is that it will still be a tremendious reduction in the NASS total emolument. There is no template in RMFAC that allows about 350mil for a senator. Not even the president. The reason is that, they from no where, monetised everything without any bases to arrive at those huge take home. OBJ govt did not challenge because of other invidious agenda. So even the upward review will trmemndiously slash their effective take home. See the game Truth is that no legislation is required. Just application of existing payment template. If you ague, then it can only be reverted to 2008, which is lower.

IF PMB achieves this, I will know the guy is got tremendious powers. He actually has the instruments to enforce it. The executive can turn everything to public debate and finally handtwist the NASS. And like a prick on a balloon, the houses will become a place to be avoided by the greed. Only men of valour and value to offer will parade in.

Sai Buhari!!!

How 469 people feel/felt its ok for this kind of obscene salary & allowances (+ countless "tiffing" ) to accrue to them out of over a 170m people in the face of overwhelming poverty in the land is straight up Ungodly.

I'm still wondering, if the whole country was in a state of coma while David Mark arm twisted the RMAFC into increasing the NASS budget from 50b per annum to 150b without public outcry...

Nigerians are waiting for them to resist this in the face of depleted reserves,dwindling oil prices and a weak Naira so we can occupy them ....

Sai Baba too sure, quietly enpowering institutions to do the needful.. God bles him for us.

Obscenity is a wrong choice of word to use here because from my standpoint, it's as if you're showering them with eulogy. It's sheer recklessness and inconceivable profligacy.

Hahahaha! This would be a Huge Smack down fights of many rounds!

Those pot belle men who just go to the assembly, some sleep ,wake and get their accounts smiling in millions may not take this smiling with the Executive!
The Battle line is Drawn!!!!!!!!!

Let them go and hang. How can one individual be collecting 29.5 million per month? Compare that to the 18,000 minimum wage a fellow human is taking home monthly.

Yes, the committee should adopt the 2014 confab report on salaries and allowances for NASS members.

Collecting millions as sitting allowance and some of them will not even attend yet they'll be paid. Meanwhile people working no salary. Some people have not been paid for 4months now but we are working. Tell me why robbery won't be on the increase? This country! I pray God gives us a sound mind.
