Again, National Assembly Legislative Aides on Tuesday embarked on peaceful protest to drive home their claims of unpaid allowances.
The aides, attached to Senators and House of Representatives members, stormed the lobby of the assembly calling on the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and the Independent Corrupt Practices and other offences Commission to probe the alleged mismanagement of N5.8 billion meant for their payment.
The legislative aides stationed themselves at the entrance of National Assembly Dome, chanting anti-National Assembly management song and bearing cardboards with different inscriptions such as: “Pay us our entitlement”; and “We are aides, not slaves.”
