The House of Representatives has debunked claims by the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), that lawmakers had recieved the sum of N100 million from the Federal Government as palliatives to cushion the effects of the fuel subsidy removal.
The NLC had, in a statement on Wednesday by its National Assistant Secretary, Christopher Onyeka, alleged that members of the National Assembly were given the amount by the government.
The labour union’s allegation which was part of its notice of an indefinite strike, said the FG was wrong to share a bag of rice to a dozen citizens while giving N100m palliative to each member of the National Assembly.
