You Have Exposed Your Insensitivity And Greed – Peter Obi Blasts RMAFC Over Proposed Salary Hike For Leaders

Former Anambra State Governor, Peter Obi, criticized the Revenue Mobilization Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC) for proposing a salary hike for political leaders. In a statement released on Wednesday, Obi condemned the decision as a display of insensitivity and greed, accusing politicians of prioritizing their desires over the needs of the masses.

He described the move as a shameless grab at the expense of Nigeria's struggling majority. Emphasizing that political office should serve the nation rather than accumulate wealth, Obi urged the government to focus on improving the living conditions of public workers, who he referred to as the backbone of the country.

The statement reflects Obi's strong stance against the proposed salary increase for leaders.
