SARAKI visits maiduguri

The Senate has discredited claims in some quarters that
Senate president Bukola Saraki's visit to some IDP camps
in Maiduguri, Borno state on Monday August 3rd was
geared towards his alleged presidential aspiration in 2019.
Speaking through its chairman on publicity, Senator Dino
Melaye, the senate said there was no truth in the claim.
“It is myopic to say the visit has a link with 2019.
The visit was not the making of the Senate president
but the resolution of the Senate during a plenary last
week. The visit has nothing to do with the ambition
of the Senate president.
The visit was as a result of the motion moved by
Senator George Thompson Sekibo of Rivers East
Senatorial District on the Boko Haram insurgency. It
was during the debate at the floor that Senate
resolved that a delegation led by the Senate
president should visit the North East states,” he
said.

lawmakers allegedly loot the treasury under the guise of "Running cost" Abdulmumin Jibrin reveals

He made this new allegations in his independence message to Nigerians which he shared on his Facebook wall today 'I will celebrate the 56th independence of Nigeria by further exposing systemic corruption using running cost/allowances of the House of Representatives. The amount (about 10 million naira) received monthly at present by members is the least since the regime of this fraud called running cost started. At various time in the past Hon Members have received between about 10 to 20 million naira averagely per month and often pocket the money. Iam found of telling my colleagues in the House that only international footballers like Mikel Obi are known to legally earn such colossal amount monthly. A dirty means was devised to receive part of the four-year cumulative of such money up front. So a member can take up to 200 to 400 million naira at once. No body is saying money should not be allocated to run activities of members. The problem is that the money is div...
