In terms of lawmakers’ salaries as a ratio of GDP per capital, 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 = 1638

It will take an average Nigerian worker
1,638 years to earn the yearly salary of a Nigerian Senator!!!
