Buhari: Nigerians Feel Lawmakers Pocket A Lot Of Money For Doing Little

President Muhammadu Buhari says Nigerians believe that the federal lawmakers go home with huge benefits for doing so little.

He made this known during the launch of the Green Chamber magazine, a publication of the house of representatives, in Abuja on Wednesday where he was represented by Lai Mohammed,  minister of information.

“Wrong perception” of the legislative chamber is caused by the lack of understanding of their works.

“Hitherto, the public perception of the national assembly is that of a bicameral legislature where overly comfortable and highly overpaid members merely stuff wads of currency notes into their pockets for little work done,” he said.

“This wrong perception has resulted partly from the lack of understanding of the enormous work of lawmakers, especially outside the glare of television cameras.”

It is so obvious that the president knows to we’ll that lot’s of Nigeria currency are lavishing away for personal interest, were lowers are threatened by the federal government themselves to close a case that did not justify their evil. No doubt that in two years to come, our country well be a law less country but for the high and mighty.
