the following was culled from Punch's Article/news "Reps reject fuel subsidy removal" http://www.punchng.com/news/reps-reject-fuel-subsidy-removal/

In its reaction, the Presidency also on Sunday said the resolution by the House had no “substantial effect.”

In a telephone interview with one of our correspondents, Presidential spokesman, Reuben Abati, said, “What they have decided has no substantial effect whatsoever. Maybe it will have a moral effect and maybe people will now be quoting the House of Representatives as opposing the decision.

“If that is the case, the House of Representatives will know that it is inciting the people of Nigeria against the government of which it is a part.

“If the House of Representatives has an input to make, it can do so when considering the budget. Even then I am not sure that the powers of the legislature go as far as dictating what should be the content of the budget.”

As we all know that the above is quite unusual of Reuben Abati's style of speech and approach to national issues,
I imagine how money does magic as far as buying the "Life" of a professional, famous,veteran,renowned person in a Nation
