A SELF DECEIVING COUNTRY CALLED NIGERIA
The present congresspersons who once served as governors are Bukola Saraki of Kwara, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of Kano, Kabiru Gaya of Kano, Godswill Akpabio of Akwa Ibom, Theodore Orji of Abia, Abdullahi Adamu of Nasarawa, Sam Egwu of Ebonyi, Shaaba Lafiagi of Kwara, Joshua Dariye of Plateau Jonah Jang of Plateau, Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko of Sokoto, Ahmed Sani Yarima of Zamfara, Danjuma Goje of Gombe, Bukar Abba Ibrahim of Yobe, Adamu Aliero of Kebbi, George Akume of Benue and Isiaka Adeleke of Osun.
The previous representative governors in the Senate are Ms Biodun Olujimi of Ekiti and Enyinaya Harcourt Abaribe of Abia. Danladi Abubakar Sani served as the acting legislative leader of Taraba state.
Numerous previous governors are likewise in Buhari's Cabinet as Ministers. This incorporates: Ngige, Fayemi, Amaechi and Fashola (SAN).).
In Akwa Ibom State, the law gives that ex governors and representative governors get benefits comparable to the compensations of the occupant. The bundle likewise incorporates another official auto and an utility vehicle at regular intervals; one individual helper; a cook, drivers and security watches for the representative at an aggregate not surpassing N5 million every month and N2.5 million for his appointee senator.
In Rivers, the law gives 100 percent of yearly essential pay rates for the ex-senator and representative, one private house for the previous representative "anyplace of his decision in Nigeria"; one private house anyplace in Rivers for the agent, three autos for the ex-senator at regular intervals and two autos for the appointee like clockwork.
It is alledged that in Lagos, a previous senator will get two houses, one in Lagos and another in Abuja, evaluated at N500 million in Lagos and N700 million in Abuja. He additionally gets six new autos to be supplanted at regular intervals; a furniture remittance of 300 percent of yearly compensation to be paid at regular intervals, and a N30 million benefits every year forever.
This is the truth for all the 21 ex govenors and representative governors who are as of now serving as congresspersons. This same is likewise valid for ex governors who are currently serving as Ministers.
Presently I ASK:
How long did these folks serve their states as governors and delegate governors? Is it more than 8years? Is that motivation to be qualified for annuities forever? Regardless of the possibility that they are qualified for benefits forever, should it be so ludicrous?
As though that is insufficient: HOW on earth can any open hireling with inner voice gather pay rates and stipends as a congressperson or clergyman, and still have the dauntlessness to claim benefits comparable to the pay rates of a serving senator in Nigeria?
IT ISN'T ROCKET SCIENCE......
When you are chosen a representative or delegated a clergyman, you should relinquish any benefits accumulating to you from government at any level until you empty office. This ought to likewise apply to congresspersons gathering military annuities like previous Senate President David Mark.
However these congresspersons are in the Senate that is welcoming the present account priest to examine the retreat of Nigeria's economy. A representative pockets roughly 30 million naira month to month as pay and recompenses. Our "honourables" are not intrigued to make laws that could rebuild our nation into financially self-sufficient uniting States/Regions to spare the nation from sectional tumults that is undermining to demolish Nigeria.The tragic and sad circumstance is that whatever remains of Nigerians are caught up with belligerence in view of gathering, ethnic and affiliations while these adversaries of state keep on raping us.
Do you realize that it costs citizens 290m Naira yearly to keep up every individual from our National Assembly in a nation where nothing works and 80% of populace acquire beneath 300 Naira a day ? A working day procuring of a representative is more than a yearly pay of a specialist; it's more than the pay of 42 Army commanders or 48 educators or 70 chiefs of police or more than double the compensation of the US President or 9times the pay of US congressmen.
It would be ideal if you say NO to plundering of Nigeria for the sake of vote based system by sending this content to no less than 5 others.
I think the nation must have a choice on compensations of legislators. This must happen rapidly.
On the off chance that the legislature wouldn't we be able to the masses must
