If this would be the only earnings, fine.
I hope they would be transparent enough with the constituency allowance? or better we eradicate the idea of giving the senators constituency allowance which was never accounted for, we would prefer the allocation is channel to development of the country as a whole. - Firefire
"There are 109 Senators and 360 members of the House of Representatives so in terms of payment by result, the Nigerian lawmakers do not deserve such high pay and surely does not perform their duties to warrant such hyper inflated pay.
In America, a Senator earns 174,000 US dollars and in the UK, a Member of parliament about 64,000 US dollars a year. So what do our lawmaker do for this generous amount can someone please tell me why they deserve this enormous amount of money.
It is about time Nigerians demand better service and improvement for Nigeria and Nigerians. No one deserves that much money while ordinary people are scavenging to make ends meet. Nigeria has got multitude of deprivation; high infant mortality rate, maternal mortality rate, malnutrition, inadequate health care and transportation and lack of electricity outage, high crime rates, high number of young people not in education, employment or in training.
So why is some of these excesses going to improve the lives of Nigerians. So instead Nigerians lawmakers are paid for below par performance and disregard to the electorates that they are meant to represent.
I feel that ordinary Nigerians have been severely short changed, cheated and insulted by these so called honourable people".
