The Nigerian Senate has rejected calls to cut down its expenses due to economic hardship caused by the removal of fuel subsidy.

The rejection was disclosed on Monday by Sen Yemi Adaramodu, Chairman of the Senate Committee on Media and Public Affairs.

Adaramodu confirmed that the Senate cannot be held responsible for the economic challenges.
