The former governor of Ogun state, Otunba Gbenga Daniel, has revealed the amount he receives monthly from his state Government for being a former governor.
In a report filed hours ago by the Punch paper, the former governor, who is now the lawmaker representing ogun east said, “I always receive six hundred and seventy six thousand, three hundred and thirty six naira (almost seven hundred thousand) every month as pension or allowances of being the former governor of ogun state.”
Speaking further, Senator Gbenga Daniel said, “I want the money to be suspended now because, as a senator of the federal Republic of Nigeria, I don’t want to be receiving double emoluments. I am therefore making this request in line with my conscience, moral principle, and ethical codes.”
Lastly, senator Gbenga Daniel said, “since I left office as a governor in 2011, I have never gotten any other form of welfare in terms of transportation, medical, furniture, or other allowances.”
