The leadership of House of Representatives has presented a cheque of N705 million to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in support of his initiatives for vulnerable Nigerians.
Gatekeepers News reports that the cheque was presented to President Tinubu on Monday by Tajudeen Abbas, speaker of the lower house of assembly.
Abbas had led a delegation of the lower legislative chamber to partake in iftar with the president at Aso Rock.
Also present at the event were Vice-President Kashim Shettima, and Femi Gbajabiamila, chief of staff to the president.
The donation follows the legislators’ resolution in July 2024, to slash their salaries by 50 per cent for six months due to the economic hardship in the country.
