The Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC) has clarified the monthly salary and allowances of senators, stating that each of the 109 senators earns N1,063,860.

RMAFC chairman M.B. Shehu said, “We do not have the constitutional powers to enforce compliance with the proper implementation of the remuneration package of lawmakers. This lacuna is, however, being addressed by the National Assembly.”

Shehu explained that some allowances are regular while others are non-regular, citing examples such as furniture allowance and severance gratuity which are paid once in every tenure, and vehicle allowance which is optional and a loan that must be repaid before leaving office.

Senate spokesman Yemi Adaramodu challenged anyone with credible evidence to present contrary facts, describing any suggestion that the National Assembly fixes its salaries as “uncharitable and satanic.” Adaramodu said the red chamber only receives the salary allocated to it by the RMAFC in line with the constitution.

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo had said it was “immoral” for federal lawmakers to determine their salaries and allowances, and that the RMAFC should be saddled with this responsibility.
