The details of the remuneration of an
average Nigerian Senator is detailed below;
Monthly

It will take an average Nigerian worker 1,638 years to earn the yearly salary of a Nigerian Senator.

Why don't you become a senator and correct the anomaly?

Nigeria senate cannot be scrapped...You don't just scrap the lawmaking centre of a country..

oh, your plans is to make Buhari the dictator he was and always wants to be? Una fail..
Re: This Is Why Nigeria Senate Should Be Scrapped. by dlondonbadboy: 4:50pm On Apr 04, 2017
If you don't like any senator, vote them out!

Nigerians don't like Buhari but we have to endure till 2019...because if we follow Buhari d way e dey do us, we would have to scrap the presidency..

Thank you for putting down that guy's horrible suggestion. Seriously, their plans have failed.

If they feel like our senators are earning a lot, they can look for ways to correct it; but to scrap the senate? That's impossible madness!

Give the executive unlimited powers and Fulani heardsmen will destroy the whole of Nigeria.

Sorry, the senate stays.

NASS of Nigeria is the most expensive in the world and I am all for reducing their bill

But this bill reduction is intertwined with change in National Structure to reduce cost of governance

But what I however do not support is demonisation of the Senate because they did their job on Magu

It is not compulsory for Magu to be EFCC chairman
