FG Misinforming Nigerians; Saraki Receives Pension,
Not Salary – Kwara Govt.
The Kwara state government has denied paying
salaries to Bukola Saraki, senate president, for four
years after he stepped aside as governor of the state.
Reacting to the claim of the Economic and Financial
Crimes Commission (EFCC) that the former governor
was receiving salaries from the state after he left
office, Isiaka Gold, secretary to the Kwara state
government, said Saraki’s last salary was N291,474.00
for the month of May 2011.
He said that since May 2011 when he left office as
governor, Saraki had only been receiving pension –
not salary.
“From June 2011, former Governor Saraki started
receiving his pension, which was N578,188.00 as
other past governors in the country,” Gold said in a
statement
