Mohammed Shehu, chairman, Revenue Mobilisation, Allocation and Fiscal Commission , says some political appointees earn more salary than President Muhammadu Buhari.The RMAFC boss, who spoke on the commission’s plan to review judicial and political holders’ salaries, said some officials of the Nigerian Communications Commission and Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency He said the country needs to review allocations as some agencies remit less revenue.

“There are people in the private sector and others in other public sectors that earn twice, three times or four times. No public servant should earn a salary bigger than Mr President. But we do have public servants that earn salaries bigger than Mr President, such as in the Nigerian Communications Commission , Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency , etc.

“My argument has always been that no public servant should earn allowances, severances, or salaries larger than the president of the federal republic of Nigeria, and I stand by it.”Speaking further on how salaries would be reviewed, especially on current realities, Shehu said salary review would go through processes.“When you do a review, the takeoff point is not immediate.

“I can not tell you whether we can afford it or not, but what I can tell you is there are unremitted revenues out there, probably estimated from N6 trillion to N7 trillion that should be remitted to the federation account.

He that chase 2 Rabbits at the same time will end up catching none. Tinubu is sick & unwell, you cannot vote for him & expect him to perform high like healthy Peter Obi,It won't work. Use your Votes chase for Peter Obi put him in power, at the end, you loose nothing. Be Obidient

It is not what they earn is the problem. It is what they loot and the impact of their so called service. Suppose most of them go on strike, what percentage of Nigerians will notice their absence? But let farmers, market women, okada riders and commercial motorists go on strike.

Oga leave salary...focus on the allowances and estacodes....that is where the money is.

Wahala wahala
