If this govt is serious about fighting corruption, they should send an executive bill to the house to put a cap on what anybody in govt either appointed or elected can earn and if they refuses to pass it into law then Nigerian will know who to hold.

Tolexander:
deep!

He won’t talk about those things now, cos Lawan is their man.
Trust him, if the senate president is Saraki, Sagay won’t hide anything

Itsey Sagay seems to be better at being the presidential spokesperson on National Assembly matters than the role he currently occupies.

Wasn't Saraki senate president for four years? Did Sagay say anything? Sometimes, you guys are just too partisan that y'all can't make concise points without revealing yourselves.

The only way Nigeria can move forward is to kill all these old men politicians...Just gather them for one big event, make sure no one is missing and set them on fire, spare them with millions of bullets. When this is done, even the younger politicians will have fear inside of them undecided

That's "chicken change" when compared with the amount governors loot from state treasuries on a monthly basis. 18M/month for 4 years isn't even close to #1 billion. #1billion is a paltry sum to the average Nigerian governor. If given a chance, all Nigerian Senators would prefer to be Governors of their states. Nigeria is cursed!

The Chairman of the Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption, PACAC, Prof. Itse Sagay, said the Senate President, Ahmed Lawan was being economical with the truth when he said his monthly salary as a senator was N750,000.

According to the controversial Constitutional lawyer, a senator takes home N15 million monthly.

He therefore asked the Senate President to stop misleading the public with his half truth.

Recall that Lawan had on Tuesday in Abuja said that there was no ‘jumbo’ salary for senators as was being claimed and that they earned N750, 000 monthly.

Speaking to the Punch on Wednesday, Sagay noted that Nigerians were more interested in how much senators take home monthly in both salaries and allowances.

He pointed out that it was public knowledge that the bulk of the money earned by senators come from their allowances.

He was quoted as saying: “He (Lawan) knows that nobody will take him seriously. I respect and like him, but what he has done is to give half-truth. He is telling us the actual salary without mentioning anything about the allowances.

“That’s where the jumbo pay comes in when you talk of building, furniture, domestic this or that, 15 items and those items alone bring everything up to N13.5m a month. So, simply mentioning the base salary, which brings it over N14m, is not sufficient.

“So, technically, he’s right, that’s their salary. But what is his income, take-home pay, at the end of the month? It’s about N15m and we are not including so many other things we need not talk about now.”

Agugbadin:

He didn't lie, Nigerians just choose to remain adamantly ignorant and stup!d. There is a difference between monthly take home and monthly salary.

The salary of a Senate president is less than 1m, and the salary of a sitting Governor is roughly N800,000.

That's a basic salary. It excludes security votes, furniture allowances, housing allowances, inflated projects, non-contracted projects, nonexistent projects, travel allowances, monthly operating expenses, inflated state budgets, budgets for the dead, diverted gratuities, diverted pension monies, diverted unpaid salaries, allowances for pseudo aides and assistants, budget for the first lady and aides, Governor's vacation expense, Governor's leave expense, diverted extra budgetary allocations, diverted World Bank and UN loans, bribes, diverted Paris fund, diverted internally generated revenue, etc.


Nigeria is a cursed Nation.

The 15 million naira is not a take home salary, It is an amount of money dedicated to run the office of the Senate. Each senator has 20 - 30 members of staff from PAs to secretaries, to treasurer, etc. The money also goes into maintaining their offices n paying bills associated wit it.


15 million naira is nothing to a senator, they buy houses worth millions of dollars abroad, does 15 million naira buy such houses? Bribes and lobby money that senators receive from Shell, Chevron, TOTAL, AGIP, GLO, 9MOBILE, MTN, FIRSTBANK, GTBANK, DSTV etc to make favourable laws for them and protect their bisonesses is the main cash that Nigerian senators make.
