Here we go!

Mogidi:


@seges
I think you need medical attention yourself because in your haste to deride this administration you forgot your brain.

Which Nigerian millionaire goes to Nigerian hospital?
Is it Tinubu who spent 8yrs in Office or the senile Buhari who pleads poverty but gallivant abroad any time he has headache?

There're 2 types of sickness:

1- Poor man sickness = about to die and must receive urgent medical attention otherwise...

2- Big-man sickness = feels a bit tired and some slight headache then goes abroad for "check-up and rest".

When the Big-man actually sick, the same hospital they refused to fund that's where they WILL end up!!!

Because he is NOT sick!

When you're sick you head straight to the nearest hospital!!!

.

sir the questions are the issues, so even on issues you cannot even defend your "esteemed" senator.

Last word.

thanks and Be well

I'm a Nigerian but not from Enugu state and he is not my senator.

Walk over to your senator like a man and demand answers to important issues.

Please, when you get there, don't waste your time talking about his mansion because it's not relevant!!!

kmariko:
Sir, the questions are not about the house or what he owns, please go back again and read it slower this time.

thanks and be well

Free me!

Go ask your senator.

I don't care about YOUR question.

I care about MY OWN contribution here (Topic: Senator's mansion) which is: leave his house alone and focus on issues.

kmariko:
We have not seen anything. Nobody was asking about the salary. Carefully and slowly read the questions posited for the senator you to answer. Its been over a week and you still haven't finished your research. We will wait as long as it takes.

Thanks and be well

I'm not a Senator and I'm not interested in becoming one.
Hope you're not insinuating the questions are for me

My interest here is that you don't waste your time on "small things" like the Senator's house which is not relevant and rather start seeking answers to "important issues".

I beg, free me!!!

This na Christmas!!

Just observing

Now that you guys have seen Senators' salary and allowance I hope you're happy that your Senator is NOT wasting his share living lavishly in Abuja

"Go & Die"Governor too dey yarn

ETT!!!

Did you actually pay for those papers
Then demand refund.

If you did NOT pay for Punch, Vanguard Etc & you're the President of the "Nigerian Free Readers Association" then blame yourself and your members!!!

News cost money!!!

Why is APC conducting primaries
They should just adopt all 3 and form 3 parallel presidents according to Amaechi!!!

APC fooling Nigerians with fake news of stoning since 1970

Igbo Day in Plateau State

Odikwa risky oh!!!

APC always fooling Nigerians since 1970

Did General Buhari start the War with Boko Haram in the 1st place

OBJ, a 5-star General, "supervised" the birth of Niger Delta Militants.
What did he do He bombed and completely erased the wrong people and the wrong places of ODI & CHOBA!!!

Asari, Tompolo etc etc were NEVER there!!!
Every Tom, Dick and Harry knew they deep inside the creeks!!!

Pictures (video) of YOU & Jonathan otherwise...OP is

This is a very difficult time indeed!!!

Boko Haram on this side
Falling oil price on the other side
Falling value of Naira on yet another side

No guarantee If you leave you home that you would return safely

Why are APC so afraid of primaries

They wouldn't let their APC members have a say

Diffdeef:
Is there anything like Amaechi's police?

Abi na another new security agency?

The police killed 10 protesting youths in Rivers,simple.

Amaechi Police = Chidi Lloyd Police

The same Nigeria has so many very descent people doing excellently descent things!!!?

ilugunboy:
This is Nigeria's President in 2015.

GEJ is not an option......Nigeria cannot go ahead in GEJ's direction.

That is a "Photoshop" of President Barack Obama in the Oval Office White House USA

swedbase:
Ok but one can still locate your facebook page with your names or by sms my dear sister

Reminds me of Romeo and Juliet

How many times will this Tafawa Balewa step down

Interesting times!!

Even if Tukur wins the case President GEJ will still "resign him"!!!

When you do not praise God for what you've got just because you saw your neighbour got more = Amaechi Syndrome

In terms of lawmakers’ salaries as a ratio of
GDP per capita, the gap is even much wider.
While the salary of a Nigerian lawmaker is
116 times the country’s GDP per person,
that of a British member of parliament is
just 2.7 times.
The average salary of Nigerian worker based
on the national minimum wage is N18
000.00,
so the yearly salary is N18 000.00 x 12 =
N216 000.00 ($1 333.00)
Remember, Yearly Salary of Nigerian
Senator = $2 183 685.00
Proportion: $2 183 685.00/$1 333.00 = 1
638
It will take an average Nigerian worker
1,638 years to earn the yearly salary of a
Nigerian Senator."

I believe the questions will be
1. What has this senator dine for his constituents since elected.
2. How much money has been allocated to his constituents since elected
3. How has the said monies been used since elected.
4. Who have been the beneficiary of the said monies and projects since elected.
5. Has the said senator given his constituents a financial account of his stewardship since elected .
6/ when was the last time the said senator held a meeting with the different towns and villages that make up his constituents.
7 what was the said senators financial standing before being elected.
And the list goes on.
As long as the senator can not give a credible account of his stewardship to the people that elected him, his mansion am afraid gives a horrible credibility gap that raises a lot of questions... And as such a fair game.

Thanks

You see yourself

Senator is NOT a Local Government Chairman!!!
Senator is NOT a Governor!!!

Senator has NO budget allocation!!!

Senator CANNOT account for any money because there was NO money ab initio!!!

My advise to you: go and check the job description of a senator!!!
Stop embarrassing yourself!!!

Goods tested OK, No refund after purchase!!!!

Eziachi:
You are absolutely wrong about your tone of whether Chou likes it or not. If Nigeria is a real democracy (which they are not) a public servant won't be building mansions whether he likes it or not. He may even be restrained, even when it's legitimate because it does not put him a good stade with that elected them to serve. especially when he represents mostly poor populace.
It is your sort of attitude that give those that supposed to be scared of the electorate and what they think of them, to act as if the same electorates are their slaves as they act with impunity.

You're just going round and round.

What are the duties and expectations of a Senator

This is where the discussion should centre!
Otherwise, waste of valuable time.
