The Former Senator who represented the good people of Kaduna Central Senatorial Zone, Senator Shehu Sani, has noted that there is nothing wrong, if the SGF, George Akume, says that he personally can’t afford to pay his drivers ₦100,000 as minimum wage.
Speaking further, Shehu Sani made it known that the former Governor of Benue State, George Akume lives on his pension as a former governor and his salary as the SGF, thereby demanding to know whether he should have billions in his bank account.
Senator Shehu Sani made this disclosure in a post he made on his official X handle on Friday morning. He went on and demanded to know whether George Akume should tell Nigerians that he can pay his drivers ₦500,000 monthly.
He wrote: “Mr George Akume ideally lives on his pension as a former Governor and his salary as the SGF. If he says he can’t personally afford to pay his Drivers a 100k what is wrong with that? Is he supposed to have billions? Is he supposed to boast that he can pay his Driver 500k? and if he said that, what will be the public reaction?Was this not the prudent life that earned the former President the title of integrity?”
