Most Nigerians want to be in that position, so if it is too small let them .......

All lies upon lies we know them!

When I was governor, the state was buying my food; the state paid everything, but as a senator, nobody does that.”

And that, Sir, just confirms everything we thought about you people is true.

All you're looking for in the senate is to freeload as leeches and parasites.

When they is no money why do u people want to die on that sit. Scammer watch

A former Abia State Governor, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu has revealed that many senators are disappointed with their salaries after they got far below what they expected before getting into the Senate.

Kalu, who is the Chief Whip of the Senate, stated this on Saturday in Abuja when he addressed journalists, promising to give details of what senators earn soon.

He said: “Let me address the issue of jumbo pay. I have received my salary for June and it is far below what you people are writing.

“If a minister is travelling to Lagos, would he use his legs? What you call fat salary are monies used to run the constituency because they don’t give us additional funds.

“It is the money we use when we travel to Abia, Lagos, Badagry or Kaduna. Next meeting, I will unveil to you.

“You will now see that you are maligning and criticising the National Assembly for nothing.

“Most of my colleagues said they did not know it was going to be like this and I said we came to serve our country as senators.

“When they were outside, they were also saying that all the money was carried by the National Assembly which is not true.

“The money they have given them is not going to be enough. I have seen them crying already.

“They came to me to complain because I have seen the good and the ugly.

“I think that the media is not fair to the National Assembly. I call on you people to change your minds because there is no jumbo pay; honestly, I have not seen one.

“If I see jumbo pay that does not represent my conscience, I will speak.

“When I was governor, the state was buying my food; the state paid everything, but as a senator, nobody does that.”

Why don't you tell us how much you were actually paid.

who is fooling who, Esu. if the money is not enough, then step down. Ndi ara

The people are dissatisfied with the NA expenditure. The NA member are dissatisfied with their "meagre" salary. The NA should amend the constitution to abolish two chambers NA and reduce the senate to one senate per state. If the money is truly too small, our dear NA should not minding loosing it by embracing cost cutting reforms. Awon OLE.

What do these politicians take us for? The salary is not enough yet you all spend so much to get there. To do what? Serve? Nonsense.
Btw, since when is traveling to your constituency cost millions? It's time they make all the projects they do and how much spent on it public.

If Buhari is not corrupt.

This man should be in Prison.

A trained, learned, and internationally-recognized university professor is on a salary of about 1 million (could be slightly more or less), while a barely literate senator whose real impact to his constituency and nation is less than a village masquerade collects over 5 million a month, and this buffoon is telling us it's not enough?....

I wish to use certain expletives, but I was raised better... And today is Sunday.

Money wey una don spend for s.ex shop in advance.

I never hear Orji Uzor say anything thoughtful or meaningful or even interesting.
We know they are disappointed with their salaries.Of course they will be.They have an incurable disease.
But for you to come out and voice it is quite insensible and stupid....which sadly has become your trademark.
There are daily killings,strikes and rumours of strike,UNPAID salaries,minimum wage,healthcare collapse and all sorts of issues befalling this country
And what does Orji uzor talk about?
The world's highest paid senators complaining about their meagre pay!

i swear i fit stone this guy for this his statement.... civil servant are not getting good pay thats enough for their upkeep in a month.... this has turned alot of civil servants as beggars , some arr being owed salary for months...and this one is talking about senator pay.....infact i stone u from afar!

BENARI:

This clown of a man won't cease to amuse me;
Honestly!

thunder fire una
