In some trending pictures seen by SaharaReporters, Italiya who is the Minority Whip of the Seventh Assembly in Adamawa was seen, giving the paltry sum to some of his constituents studying at the Federal College of Education, Yola.

The lawmaker representing Mayo Belwa Constituency in the Adamawa State House of Assembly, Hon Ibrahim Musa Italiya, has come under fire for allegedly giving N1,000 each as scholarship to students in his constituent.The action has since attracted the outrage of Nigerians who described the lawmaker as “a total disgrace and failure.”

“The honourable member must have done a wonderful job for assisting his Constituents with 1000 naira each. But, Just because of 1000 naira you must post the picture of someone face on Social media? This is honestly a total disgrace. Kai ana iskanci a Nigeria,” a Facebook user, Modibbo Bobboji, said. “A member cannot afford to give less than 50 students N5,000 each. He's not a promise keeping leader at all.”

Abdul Gurin wrote, “Even me as nobody from nowhere having nothing, I can afford to double it to 100 people. Imagine a member that has been elected to represent his host community.”

Where's the brain of this lawmaker, who knows how he got into that position please you people should stop making Nigeria or Nigerians look stupid.

Wow.. and they really posed for pictures.. wow

How they think up these stupid things beats the imagination.

When Buhari is promising N5000 transport grant for removing fuel subsidies. This government has weaponized poverty against the people so much that N1000 to them is considered poverty alleviation.

🤦🤦🤦🤦

Maybe this man is using his salary, you see! no one appreciates it until he stole billions and award scholarship of 100k each you guys would appreciate.
