Senator Orji Kalu recently shared details about his monthly earnings as a senator. He said that he receives 14 million naira each month, which covers various expenses. He said this amount includes his salary, the cost of running his office, and paying the salaries of his staff.
In a video shared by Channels TV from 1:18, Senator Kalu highlighted the challenges of managing these funds. He said out of this 14 million naira, he has to cover the cost of buying fuel, traveling to his constituency, and maintaining his constituency office. He also mentioned that he needs to spend time in his constituency, which adds to the financial demands.
According to Senator Kalu, the 14 million naira he receives is not enough to cover all these expenses.
In Senator Kalu’s words: “I earn 14 million naira in a month for everything: my salary, overhead, workers salary. Let me be honest with you, do you know I have to buy fuel from this money and I have to travel to my constituency and I have to maintain constituency office and I have to sit in the constituency. It is not enough”.
