salaries of N3, 514, 705 and N3, 031, 572.50

The RMAFC is statutorily empowered by Section
32 (d) of Part 1 of the Third Schedule of the
Constitution to determine the remuneration
appropriate for political office holders.
Apart from the salaries, the president is entitled
to various regular allowances like: Hardship, 50

For instance, furniture allowance to other cadre of
officials, like ministers and the Secretary to the
Government of the Federation, is given once in
four years. The President and Vice President are
not paid furniture allowance as they are provided
for.
When all allowances payable each month are
added, President Buhari will take home N1,
171,568.33 each month, and N14, 058, 820.00
yearly.
Vice President Osinbajo will receive N1, 010, 524.

to a leave allowance of N351, 470. 50, (10 per
cent of basic salary) and an optional motor
vehicle loan of N14, 058, 820, at 400 per cent to
be repaid before the expiration of the president’s
tenure.
Mr. Osinbajo will also get allowances such as
motor vehicle, feeding and maintenance, special

931.25; N9, 094, 717.50 and N303, 157.25
respectively.

per cent of his basic salary which is N12, 126,
290; to be repaid at the expiration of his tenure.
The salaries and allowances are drawn from the
Consolidated Revenue Fund.

fixed by the RMAFC in 2007.
Before the review, the basic annual salary of the
then president, Olusegun Obasanjo, was
N2,586,000 per annum, while that of his deputy,
Atiku Abubakar was N1,938,000 the same as that
of the Chief Justice of Nigeria and the Senate
President, both heads of the judiciary and the
legislature.
This was as a result of the review of the salary
structure and associated allowances for the top
federal public office holders earlier carried out by
the National Salaries and Wages Commission.
This followed the review of the salary structure
and associated allowances for the top federal
public office holders earlier carried out by the
National Salaries and Wages Commission.
That review, which took effect on May 1, 2000,
was contained in a memo SWC.04/S.1/
Vol.1V/186 dated May 15, 2000 and signed by
G.P.O. Chikelu, the then Chairman of the
Commission.
