I don't believe this!

With dwindling oil prices

David Mark and his colleagues should show some patriotism

I think this issue should be raised in the Presidential debate

President Jonathan can offer 50% pay cut and also encourage his colleagues to do the same

with 50% of their current salary they will still be one of the highest paid in the world.

Jonathan's first bill to National Assembly after the elections should be to propose pay cut
