Do you see why Nigeria can never progress?

Not much

approximately 10m per annum ...very okay for a special adviser who is almost the same level with a minister. That is entry level pay for fresh graduates in many big organizations.

that said, the number of special advisers should be slashed drastically.

ebusnwaoma:
A special report by Punch, alleges that 49 out of 127 of President Buhari and Osinbajo’s aides got N2.48bn in four years of the government. It was learnt that the salaries of the 49 President Buhari and Osinbajo’s aides who got N2.48bn in four years of the government, was captured by the Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal Commission.

Some of them work with the President’s wife, Aisha; Vice-President’s wife, Dolapo; Chief of Staff to the President and some ministers such as the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Information and Culture. Read the report below;

Each special adviser is entitled to an annual basic salary of N1,942,875; motor vehicle fuel and maintenance of N1,457,156.25; special assistant (full value paid for by the government); personal assistant allowance of N485,718.75; domestic staff allowance of N1,457,156.25; entertainment allowance of N874,293.75; utilities allowance of N582,862.50 and newspapers/periodicals allowance of N291,493.75.  These allowances come up to a total of N7, 091,493.75 per annum or N590, 957.81 a month. The total salary for the 49 aides amounts to N347, 483,193.75 per annum. For tenure of four years, they collect N1.39bn.

However, there are other irregular allowances. These include  an accommodation allowance of N3, 885,750 per annum. The 49 aides collect N190.4m per annum for accommodation. This amounts to N761.61m for tenure of four years.A furniture allowance of N5, 828,625 is paid once in Four-year tenure. For the 49 aides, this amounts to N285.6m for the tenure. Leave allowance of N194, 287.50 is paid once a year. For the 49 aides, this amounts to N9.52m per annum or N38.08m per tenure. Other allowances include tour allowance of N25, 000 per night for local trip and $800 per night for foreign trips. Medical treatment is fully provided and not monetised. While some of these aides are paid in foreign currencies, other are paid the naira equivalent. American donor agencies are said to pay lesser than British agencies, for instance. Some of the aides are rated per hour while others are rated and paid on a monthly basis.

Abuja is an expensive city, their take home is less than $1,500.. and the have alot of pressures from the commuinity. In all fairness to them without passing General Nigerian fustration on them, i think it isnt really much

For the poverty capital of the world.

Compare that to their colleagues in Britain, and you will realise that we are being governed by locusts.

Abuja is expensive because buhari runs an expensive government.

If I get there tomorrow and I slash their collective pay to the minimum wage similar to governments around the world, the cost of living in Abuja will slide down instantly.

You are not a patriot. You are just a sycophant.

This is the foolishest comment i have had the pleasure of reading this month , and i honestly got to give you that credit.

You want a Senior Special Adviser and Special Aides , who leterarily Research, document and Present Policies both sensitive and non sensitive to the President, to earn minimum wage similar to that of the civil servants messengers, youth corpers, drivers and cleaners, and you think they simply wont sell off Nigerian Vital Intel to Terrorist, or even get paid to Poison principal Goverment officials

Pray to God to give you better Insight , so that you stop seeing things from the prism of Intense Poverty and you start having rational thoughts deviod of Poor mentality.

PS $1300 monthly is an insult to many goverment officials around the world including africa

They earn more in the developed world. The amounts per person is actuallyy low. It is the number of personal assistants that is the problem. Individually, new graduates at Total or Chevron earn more than this.

michoim:
Convert to dollars. Chicken change for a whole 4 years... it is no different if not less than what previous administrations paid...

But your Buhari said he will do away with all these!

What u people fail to do is to hold ur politicians accountable based on their promises.. Like Fashola said, he would fix electricity in 6 months

He even lamented that electricity is not rocket science..

Lol, it is almost 5 years and the same stories..

Buhari lambasted Yara dua for traveling to Saudi for medicals, he promised to end it, he came to power, he did worse and he is still doing same..

and yet, someone somewhere still dey praise Buhari. If u ever condemned GEJ presidency, u must condemn this one too becus na the same stories with different faces.

Bizznezz:
it's not much... considering the pressure their communities, kinsmen, families, well wishers etc will put on them...

Look to this one ooo. Why are you not receiving this same amount considering the pressure poverty is putting on you. Afterall pressure na pressure.
