The details of the remuneration of an average Nigerian Senator is detailed below: * Basic Salary (B.S) - N2,484,245.50 * Hardship Allowance (50% of B.S) - N1,242,122.70 * Constituency Allowance (200% of B.S) - N4,968,509.00 * Newspapers Allowance (50% of B.S) - N1,242,122.70 * Wardrobe Allowance (25% of B.S) - N621,061.37 * Recess Allowance (10% of B.S) - N248,424.55 * Accommodation (200% of B.S) - N4,968,509.00 * Utilities (30% of B.S) - N828,081.83 * Domestic Staff (70% of B.S) - N1,863,184.12 * Entertainment (30% of B.S) - N828,081.83 * Personal Assistants (25% of B.S) - N621,061.12 * Vehicle Maintenance Allowance (75% of B.S) - N1,863,184.12 * Leave Allowance (10% of B.S) - N248,424.55 * Severance Gratuity (300% of B.S) - N7,452,736.50 * Car Allowance (400% of B.S) - N9,936,982.00 * TOTAL MONTHLY SALARY = N29,479,749.00 ($181,974.00) * TOTAL YEARLY SALARY = N29,479,749.00 x 12 = N353,756,988.00 ($2,183,685.00) * EXCHANGE RATE: $1 = N162 LEGISLATORS PAY WORLDWIDE PER ANNUM * Britain - $105,400.00 * United States - $174,000.00 * France - $85,900.00 * South Africa - $104,000.00 * Kenya - $74,500.00 * Saudi Arabia - $64,000.00 * Brazil - $157,600.00 * Ghana - $46,500.00 * Indonesia - $65,800.00 * Thailand - $43,800.00 * India - $11,200.00 * Italy - $182,000.00 * Bangladesh - $4,000.00 * Israel - $114,800.00 * Hong Kong - $130,700.00 * Japan - $149,700.00 * Singapore - $154,000.00 * Canada - $154 000.00 * New Zealand - $112,500.00 * Germany - $119,500.00 * Ireland - $120,400.00 * Pakistan - $3,500.00 * Malaysia - $25,300.00 * Sweden - $99 300.00 * Sri Lanka - $5,100.00 * Spain - $43,900.00 * Norway - $138,000.00 In terms of lawmakers’ salaries as a ratio of GDP per capita, the gap is even much wider. While the salary of a Nigerian lawmaker is 116 times the country’s GDP per person, that of a British member of parliament is just 2.7 times. The average salary of Nigerian worker based on the national minimum wage is N18,000.00, So, the yearly salary is N18,000.00 x 12 = N216,000.00 ($1,333.00) Remember, Yearly Salary of Nigerian Senator = $2,183,685.00. Proportion: $2,183,685.00/$1,333.00 = 1,638 It will take an average Nigerian worker 1,638 years to earn the yearly salary of a Nigerian Senator.

BEYOND THE YAHOO YAHOO ENDORSEMENT OF PRESIDENT JONATHAN

BEYOND THE YAHOO YAHOO ENDORSEMENT OF PRESIDENT JONATHAN GASKIYA TAFI KOBO (TRUTH IS BETTER THAN CASH) I heard that the National Working Committee of the people democratic party (PDP) have undemocratically endorsed president Goodluck Jonathan for a second term, but we must note that, this is not what the people of Nigeria wants. It is against our will to continue with luck without hard work. Despite giving Nigerians pain and agony, exposing our lives to massive poverty and unparalleled insecurity, those who claimed to represent the people in PDP went ahead to endorse the man who is leading Nigeria astray. Let me state that, this purported endorsement of Mr.Jonathan can only hold in the houses of those who claimed to have made the endorsement, Nigerians would never fall in line to such an inhuman endorsement. The endorsement was without any consultation with the people they claim to represent,because if they inform the people what they are about to do on their behave...

AGENDA FOR PEACE WITH Mr.Rights: By: Abdulrazaq O Hamzat It is no longer news that the 2015 presidential election has been postponed from February 14 to March 28, 2015. The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) have no other choice than listen to the advise of the nations security agencies which call for the election postponement, citing security reasons. While it may be true that the security agencies seems to be influenced by some political considerations, we must remain calm and give peace a chance since the action is still within the law. Although, there are reasons to be worried. Nigerians must be worried that, this government has had 6 years to fix the security of the nation, but it has failed to do so. Will a 6 weeks shift in the election make any difference? can the government defeat Boko Haram in 6 weeks? Again, what happens if after 6 weeks, the security situation didn’t improve? Will there be additional demand for more weeks? Certainly, the reason given by t...

Lagos before Nigeria By Abdulrazaq O Hamzat

More than 50 years before the creation of Nigeria as a united entity, Lagos is already a major centre of modern civilisation. Lagos history is rich in Yoruba tradition, trade and commerce, infrastructural development and cosmopolitanism." -EXTRACTED In the past few days, i have followed the unhealthy debate between easterners in Lagos and their host and i must say that such is really uncalled for. No tribe or race is an island of knowledge and civilisation. At one time or the other, each one of them contributed in one way or the other. While it is proper for every one to feel good about themselves and try as much as possible to amplify in a good way, their importance and contribution to the society they live in, it is also very crucial to take into account, the reality of other factors without attempting to ridicule the contribution of others. I therefore advise all those joining the discuss to thread with caution and avoid things that are capable of setting our peop...
