Popular Nigerian journalist and Arise TV news anchor, Rufai Oseni has reacted to the recommendation of an upward review in the basic salaries of political and judicial office holders in the country.
TORI reported that the Revenue Mobilisation, Allocation, and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC) Chairman, Muhammadu Shehu, had said the commission has recommended an upward review in the basic salaries of political and judicial office holders.
Shehu, who was represented by the RMAFC commissioner from Kebbi State, Rakiya Tanko-Ayuba, disclosed this on Tuesday in Birnin Kebbi, during the presentation of the reviewed remuneration package of political and judicial office holders to the state Governor, Nasir Idris.
The RMAFC boss stated that the reviewed salary will be approved by the National and State Assemblies before its implementation.
However, in a post on Twitter on Wednesday, Oseni said public and judicial officers think about how to increase their salaries, but they don’t think about the suffering of the masses.
He wrote: “July 1 electricity tariff will go up and more suffering for the masses. All they think about is how to increase their own salaries.”
