A senator in nigeria earns more than the American president. The total EMOLUMENTS of a senator in nigeria is around #226,865,320 par annum, an equivalent of over a million dollars.
A member at the house of representative takes home around #169,665,433.75
Our very own teachers who also taught our president and senators take home a whooping sum of about # 843,163 (lord have mercy)

I wonder what our law makers have contributed to the development of our dear nation to deserve these barbaric reward called salary.
My source of the figures above is www.234next.com

I hop someone will some day wake up and cut these wasteful rewards associated to our public offices, because a quarter of these annual pay is enough to edifice a hostel at a university in the respective state where these looters represent.

The Legis[b]looter[/b]s said the present economic situation does not favour increment in teachers salary, but the Legis[b]looters[/b] inreased their own salary.

If see the size of these bizmen politicians eh, they are all like overfed pigs. angry I pity Nigeria. angry sad
