any shred of doubt in the reader's mind
that Nigeria is doomed and heading for a
headlong, downward Plummeting will
simply dissipate. Read and weep for
Nigeria...

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."

Are Senators and co no longer public
servants? Shouldn't they be on the Civil
Service Salary Scale? Why not?! One only
prays these figures are wrong; but are they?
Let us stop calling the spoiling of the
plantain its ripening; ògèdè nbàjé, e ló n

tummies, and see who really want to
serve... Let us solve Mathematics...
Any questions?
Perhaps Mummy Ngozi too needed to brush
up her Arithmetic to have known we were
(going to be) broke right when she was
singing All-iz-well like those characters in 3
Idiots...; to realise that pushing for a cut in
our legislators' cut of the national cake is a
more effective austerity measure; to
convince Mr Clueless & Mrs Back-from-the-
Dead to let go of most of our Presidential
Fleet– àbí e nefa too cost ni...?
Ah, yes, the bogus, sorry, extreme
remuneration with which they have re-
numerated, sorry, over-prioritised
themselves must also go. That way, there'd
be less incentive to scale fences, and less
invective in the hallowed Chamb[/center]
