is 116 times the country’s GDP per person, that of a British
member of parliament is just 2.7 times.

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."
