Huge Pension Of Ex-Governors Of Lagos State (Full List) by Stjims: 1:39pm On Dec 13, 2019 |
Huge Pension Of Ex-governors Of Lagos State. Number 12 Will Shock You Below are the mouth watering benefits, anyone who served as governor of Lagos State will enjoy after office. It was gathered that, the pension scheme for Lagos governors, was designed by the former Attorney General of Lagos State, under Tinubu, Prof Yemi Osinbajo, who is now the vice president of the country. Lagos is ranked as one of the most dangerous cities to live in the world, due to the prevalent security threats, ranging from police brutality, harassment from street urchins, government officials, task forces and armed robbers. Lagos also named as one of the most stressful state to live and conduct business activities due to traffic jam. The state also have one of the world's worst inner city developments. If you go into the interior parts of Lagos, the level of the under development will be exposed to you. From bad roads, infrastructural decay, poor education, no access to potable water, but the people running the state keeps branding it as a mega city. Here are what ex-governors in the State, Senator Bola Tinubu, Babatunde Raji Fashola and Akinwunmi Ambode enjoys, in the midst of plenty poverty of the people. 1. 1 residential house each for the ex-governor and ex-deputy governor. 2. 1 residential house in Federal Capital Teritory for the ex-governor who spent two consecutive terms . 3. 6 new cars every three years. 4. 100% of the basic salary of the serving governor N7.7m per annum. 5. Free healthcare for him and members of his family. 6. Furniture allowance of 300% of their annual basic salary N23.3m. 7. House maintenance allowance 10% of basic salary N778,296. 8. Utility allowance 20% of the salary N1.5m. 9. Car maintenance allowance 30% of the annual basic salary N2.3m. 10. Entertainment allowance , 10% of basic salary N778,296. 11. Personal Assistant to earn 25% of the governor’s annual basic salary N1.9m. 12. 8 policemen, 2 DSS attached to the governor for the rest of his life. However, Lagos State House of Assembly said on Sunday it would not repeal the state’s pension law which authorised former governors and other public office holders to receive juicy pensions from state coffers. The Chairman of the House Committee on Information and Strategy, said the lawmakers would not go the way of their Zamfara counterparts which recently repealed pension law for its former governors and other public officials in the state. The Federal High Court, Lagos, had last week ordered the Federal Government to recover pensions collected by former governors now serving as ministers and members of the National Assembly. The court also directed the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, to challenge the legality of states’ pension laws permitting former governors and other ex-public officials to receive such pensions. Braimoh, however, faulted the court ruling that ordered Malami to take immediate legal action toward the repealing of state laws that permit “former governors to enjoy governors’ emoluments while drawing normal salaries and allowances in their new political offices.” He said as long as the law did not contravene the constitution, state assemblies had the right to make laws for the benefit of the society in which they operate. According to him, separation of powers as enshrined in the constitution empowers the legislature to make laws, the executive to implement and the judiciary to interpret the laws. He said: “The Supreme Court had made it clear several times that no arm of government can repeal the constitutional provisions of another arm of government. “Therefore, legislators make laws that are in tune with the yearnings and dynamics of their society. “Until another legislature comes to alter, review or amend the law, the law is meant to be obeyed. “The judiciary cannot pronounce that law by the state is unconstitutional unless such state law is contradictory to the constitution.” LAGOS: 6 NEW CARS EVERY 3 YEARS, HOUSES IN LAGOS, FCT https://www.thecable.ng/revealed-pensions-of-nigerian-ex-governors-1 7 Likes 14 Shares

uruba23:Why are you trying to justify the unjustifiable baba?? Being a governor is a choice provided you have the heart of your people and you truly want to serve them. The current madness of wealth acquisition by our political elite all in the name of being a governor is a scam and pathetic. Don't justify that please! 401 Likes 32 Shares |

Akwa Ibom had similar outrageous pensions for ex governors. They can get jobs after leaving office but they'd rather leach off tax payers for everything. Oh well nothing will chsnge until the state assembly is pressured to change laws. 10 Likes |
