Enugu State House of Assembly has stepped down the controversial life pensions Bill for former governors, their deputies and spouses.
The stepping down of the Bill came after public outcry about the jumbo packages contained in it for the beneficiaries.
The Bill sought to appropriate at least 900 per cent of a governor’s annual salary as his monetary entitlements every year after leaving office.
