Senate President, Bukola Saraki has reacted to claims by the Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) that he plans to increase salaries of Nigerian senators.

DAILY POST had reported that SERAP in a statement on its Twitter Page raised the alarm
over alleged plans by the Senate President, Bukola Saraki to increase salaries of Nigerian senators to N15m.

But in reaction, Saraki in a statement by his
Special Assistant on New Media, Olu Onemola, described the allegation as untrue.

He urged SERAP to get its fact right.

The statement reads, “Dear @SERAPNigeria, there is no such “alleged decision” to increase the allowances of Senators. An organization like yours needs to be more careful, especially when pushing out information meant for public consumption. Thank you.

“To avoid any doubt: there is no plan to amend the allowances of Senators. The tweet by @SERAPNigeria is baseless and untrue. The public should disregard this ENTIRELY.”

No sane Human will say that!

Saraki, the Emperor.

Saraki ooo. There's no smoke without fire. I smell something is brewing up. What is Saraki cooking?. Why are these people shameless. Effects of minimum wage increase. They want theirs increased proportionally.

Noted

who are we to believe?
but I don't think the National Assembly can be so reckless especially during this election period

Nothing is true in Nigeria

Ofcause we knew it was false.

It was just another comic relief.

Truly, all men are equal (having same organ) but some are more equal than others (wealth wise).

Who told you so

They should reduce their salary

When it got to 13m did you tell us? monsters!

Since he lost the POPULAR VOTE ticket, he's stopped helping people along the road, even buying roasted corn lol.

All for show.

Of course he will surely deny it.. rogues

Cc modath

Like i told modath earlier on the other thread... its his usual Lies and propaganda.

nadiq1:
Who told you so

cos people will rise up against them and vote them out. people are already looking for reason to gang up

Of course it is true. Saraki however never anticipated the backlash from Nigerians' reactions. Like someone said, nothing is true in Nigeria until it stares you in the face. Tomorrow when he has increased the salary he will again say he never said it's not true.

No to criminal wage!
Yes to maximum wage!

Still don't know why NLC! Can't force this people from both executive and legislatures to reduce their pay and if they refuse then go on nation wide strike..
Cos with 30k peanut for workers, they are planing to increase ther own hefty pay.
