The House of Representatives will present the sum of N704.91m to President Bola Tinubu on December 31, 2024, to ease the burden of vulnerable Nigerians following the removal of petrol subsidy.

While addressing his colleagues during Thursday’s plenary, the Speaker of the House Tajudeen Abba, said, “If you recall, about five months ago, we decided to contribute half of our salaries to address the critical needs of the Nigerian people. I am happy to inform you that so far, we have contributed N704,907,578.82.

“On December 31, I will lead a delegation of leadership to hand over the money to the President for the exclusive use of the vulnerable Nigerians who really need it.

“The contributions you made highlight the steadfastness and dedication of members to addressing the critical needs of Nigerians.”

Recall that on July 18, members of the House of Representatives agreed to donate 50 per cent of their salaries for six months to address the challenges faced by Nigerians following the adoption of a motion moved during a plenary session.

Deputy Speaker Benjamin Kalu, while moving the motion in July, said, “This government is doing its best, but one year is not enough to address the challenges of this country. I want to plead with our colleagues to sacrifice 50 per cent for a period of six months.
