Businessman and politician, Olumide Aderinokun, has said that the N2m ‘enjoyment allowance’ given to senators isn't a big deal.
Aderinokun, who is married to media personality, Stephanie Coker, stated this via Twitter on Tuesday, August 15, adding that the money is even “too small” for a senator.
“The 2m that was given to senators isn’t a big deal. It is even too small for a senator. What can a family man do with 2m Naira($2k). Why are we making it a big deal. But they shouldn't have made it public. Making it public is a bit insensitive to plight of Nigerians,” he wrote.
Recall that the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, told members of the upper legislative chamber of the National Assembly that a token had been sent to them to enjoy their holiday.
The announcement caught on camera sparked reactions among Nigerians, as many described it as insensitive at a time the masses are grappling with economic hardship.
