What of the Lifeless One? How much is his salary that jobless Yusuf can afford N55m okada?

If those poor Sai Buharists in the north actually knows Bubu's income, there'd be riots all over the north.

Ok

politicians don't touch basic salary, the main money is the security vote which is not audited, kick backs from contracts (hence their love for unnecessary projects and hatred for paying salary) and office running costs

And then the non basic salary for governors is about 10billion naira monthly.

Nigeria is a joke ntg serious just luk at it nd laf

Half-baked Nigerian graduates don't know the meaning of "salary".

To understand what such a simple word means is a challenge for them.

What a shame!

All of them criminals! And the loud-mouthed Sagay was talking shit about Senators take home pay the other day
