Chairman
of the Revenue Mobilisation, Allocation and Fiscal Commission, RMAFC, Mr. Elias
Mbam, disclosed yesterday that the Commission had started the process of
trimming down the pay packages of the President, Senators, members of the House
of Representatives, governors and all the elected public officials to reflect
current economic realities.
President Muhammadu Buhari, the RMAFC Chairman said
that no federal lawmaker received N1 million monthly as salary, adding that
their salaries would be trimmed down to reflect the current economy status.
Asked whether the parliamentarians would give a nod to the
idea, the Chairman said it was a constitutional mandate, which no one should dispute
about.
