Abe Darius Dillon of #CPP proposes a Draft Act seeking to fix $5,000.00USD maximum salary for Lawmakers. So, I took a back seat and said, if they want to cut the salary, let them cut the salary. Yesterday Senator Dillon, who is the sponsor of the bill, posted an article from 2019 showing that I said that I support US$2,500 for a lawmaker salary. Koffa said a “high level of gimmick” is being played ahead of the December 8 senatorial election which include the call for the reduction of lawmakers’ salaries. For me as a lawmaker, US$2,500 will be sufficient if you want to pay me,” he said.
