Senators reject pay cut recommendation by panel


Lol,what did we expect,the Senate on Wednesday suspended consideration of the report of its Finance committee following sharp disagreements among members over the pay cut recommended by the panel.

It was learnt that the senators during a two-hour deliberation behind closed doors, resolved to reject the reduction of salaries and allowances as recommended by the Senator James Manager’s committee.

The senators, according to one of them, said it was not possible to accept pay cut with other beneficiaries of the N120bn National Assembly annual budget not doing same.
