Senate in stormy session over jumbo pay
Days after Sen. Shehu Sani blew the lid by revealing the actual amounts senators receive monthly in form of ‘running costs,’ the Senate has entered a closed door session.
The session commenced at about 11.06a.m.
Lawmakers are expected to discuss the issue extensively and take a position on the next step of action to take.
Sen. Sani was in the chamber when lawmakers went into the closed door meeting.
