The airwaves in Lagos have been overtaken by text messages and emails of the outrage Nigerians feeling about the incredible pay of their federal lawmakers. The messages whose authors are unknown ask Nigerians to stand up and join in the struggle to chase the lawmakers away. Here is a sample - Do you know it costs tax payers N290 million Naira yearly to maintain each member of our National Assembly in a country where nothing

works and 80% of our population earn below N300 Naira a day. A Senator's daily earning is more than annual pay of a doctor,, more than the salary of 42 Army genarals or 48 professors or 70 commissiones of police, more than twice the pay of the US President, nine times the salary of US congressmen. Please, lets say NO to looting of Nigeria in the name of democracy by sending this as text messages to at least 5 others
