The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara,
is currently meeting with members of the house amid complaints over lawmakers’
delayed pay.
Members have yet to receive their July pay, and the meeting
is expected to address their complaints, a source told PREMIUM TIMES.
One member said members have become restive over the delayed
payment.
“We have not been paid,” the lawmaker told PREMIUM TIMES.
“But everybody wants to collect money. I still call my account officer today if
money has dropped, she said no.”
The meeting, which began around 9pm at Room 028, new
building wing of the House, has all members in attendance.
