Isn't it about time we do away with a bicameral legislature, pay legislators 1.5m flat rate each to purchase tokunbo vehicles for ease of movement, cancel wardrobe allowances (did they arrive Abuja in diapers?) purchase ALL newspapers only at Committee levels and have them take turns to read the newspapers, pay each legislature ONLY sitting allowances (no attendance no pay), have them sit ONLY at say, about 20 times in a legislative year, take out severance package. Let us take money out of politics and emphasise service and we will see only the best who seek to really serve seek election into the legislature.

well said!.....well said!!! its just a clash of egos and money politics. has nothing to do with the good of Nigeria and Nigerians

We know na. If not for money none of them will even look at those seats.

Yes indeed! It holds true, generally speaking, across party divides. Buhari stands in a uniquely historical position to institutionalise the needed redirection of Nigerian politics from being money centric to a service centred one. I do hope he is awake to this reality and seizes the moment.

They hardly do. Same faith we had in OBJ, same faith we had in GEJ, same hope Imolites had in Roachers etc.

it is amazing me when things like that happen not from the ordinary citizens but from our leaders. Bad image
