BEVERLY HILLS, October 09, (THEWILL) –Â As the national assembly resumed from recess on Tuesday, aides of lawmakers staged a protest over their unpaid allowances.
The protesters stormed the Assembly Complex on Tuesday morning just before the lawmakers began their closed-door session.
According to them, their last payment was on August 15, 2018.
The protesters are also demanding for their Duty Tour Allowance which they say they have not collected for the past three years.
The protesters further complained about the lack of training.
The aides, under the aegis of National Assembly Legislative Aides Forum (NASSLAF), took over the lobby of the assembly from which the upper and the lower legislative chambers can be accessed.
They displayed placards with inscriptions which read ‘Lack is killing aides S.O.S’ , ‘Omolori pay us our money’.
