The Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC) has assured that its current review of the remuneration for Political, Judicial, and Public office holders in the country will be concluded before the end of the present administration and that it will be fair in carrying out this constitutional mandate.
The Chairman of the Commission, Mohammed Bello Shehu, gave this assurance while hosting members of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) in Abuja recently.
Shehu stated that RMAFC has demonstrated its commitment to the review exercise by simultaneously carrying out public hearings on the review exercise in the country’s six geo-political zones.
