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. Source: The Economist |
