SensualMan:
Funny how 80% of those Japaa'ing as u guys term it in Nigeria are all yoruba people

On the other hand, this Bola mandate seems to be favouring the Igbos and every Igbo man is cashing out, spending money like water in the Bola Administration.

My question is: Does it mean this Administration is not favouring the yoruba clownish tribe?

Has Bola turned his back on his people?

How come the people that were supposed to be taught severe lessons are the head teachers now?

Questions wey no geti answer.

He will eventually become a bank manager in the UK or something else. IF he can become a bank manager in NIgeria he has the sense and drive to succeed anywhere. Also, he may be getting paid more as a window cleaner and the UK doesn't have a culture of being ashamed of your work like Nigeria

id4sho:
Very risky job but the pay go loud

Na truck driving I go do if I enter Yankee

I know someone saving $1.5k monthly. He's jobs is a low level job

poseidon12:


You obviously don't know what you are talking about. A former Bank Manager in Nigeria will start with a menial job.

Jewessgratitud3:
Soft life to hard life.

I guess when he got there and saw the pile of bills staring him in the face he had no choice but to grab the next available job.

If you are gainfully employed in naija, you don't need to japa. Japa is for someone who has no hope of ever getting a job in Nigeria. He'll appreciate any kind of job he finds there.

TOPCRUISE:
Depends on the pay and future oriented goals pertaining to himself and kids.

Average Bank manager salary in Nigeria: N11,000,000/ annum.
Average skyscraper salary in UK: £25000 to £27,304/annum. Or N30,000,000 to N35,000,000

Do the maths.

bolabizzle:
Just got word from a friend about someone who made the move from being a bank manager in Nigeria to working as a skyscraper cleaner in the UK. 😕

Smart move or not?

Nazgul:
The question you should be asking is how much does a bank manager earn in Nigeria?

If you must know, no bank in Nigeria pays their branch managers up to N1m. On an average, they earn between 500-600k. (That's about $600 not pounds o)

A skyscraper window cleaner in the UK earns about £23,000. With that amount, you can live comfortably in the UK.

Aside the risks involved in the job, I won't say he made a bad choice.

MSN1:

How do you guys do your comparism?.
what is the percentage of pipo working in your Mc kinsey whatever?
U for talk NNPC or SHEVRON make i know say u sabi compare, because u don't know the meaning of hi

Bro. a bank manager is a boy to casual workers abroad.
Or are u using the eye of Fraudulent managers, balling on pipos money?.

Odibembem:


Oga say what u know. Branch manager is a title, what matters is your grade. U can be an Assistant Manager, Deputy Manager or full Manager. On d average Assistant Managers in a top bank earns N1.1m net monthly. Full managers can earn N1.7m in d least. That's not adding leave allowance which can be 800k. Now to d person earning 23k pounds in d UK, that's less than 2k monthly. Rent alone is 800 pounds for a small apartment. Power utilities will consume 300 pounds. U have road tax for ur car which can be 200 pounds. U have vehicle insurance, driver's licence, council tax monthly, these are not small amounts at d end u don't have have 500 pounds as disposable income. And what will that buy in d UK economy? U are barely managing to survive. The least Nigerian manager takes home his N1.1m, his rent is per annum if he doesn't already have a house and even if it's in Lagos that he pays like N1m, that's about 100k per month. He has no other tax to pay cos PAYEE is taken net, his vehicle and insurance are tiny,d guy is a big boy by any standard. He has NHIS to cover health care for hiimself, wife and 4 kids max. Pls don't even compare as cost of living is far lower in Nigeria. Only problem is harassment and pressure at d work place which can be devastating. That's all, don't be deceived. Nigerian bankers earn well. I spent a long time in that industry

Ofadaman:


But did you count the 1000s of others doing much more better than they were in Nigeria, you left the 95% who are having a better life and focused on the 5% that are struggling , to add a thing or two to this, most workers earn more over there, a bank manager may earn at most 750k -1m, with this sky scrapper job be may be going home with as much as 5-6k pounds per month

ehissi:




This is the problem with some Nigerians, you assess ones income overseas based on the value of the money in your own country.

Is he living in Nigeria or living in the UK? Will he spend his income based on the cost of living in Nigeria in Naira or the cost of living in the UK in British pounds?

If I want to follow your argument in reverse, inside that same UK so, to buy raw akpu (Fufu) whey no big reach anywhere, is £2, which is #3,130 compared to #100 in Nigeria, e make sense abi?

£23,000 a year is just £1,917 pounds a month, how much is food, how much is house rent, furniture, fittings and electronics? How much is phone and phone bills? Car note and fuel? TV license? Gas for cooking and heat in winter? Clothes nko? NHS/Health care cost nko?


Based on current income tax system, personal allowance (which is annual income that isnt subject to any income tax) is set at a threshhold of £12,570. Anything above this to £50,270, the excess is subject to a 20% deductible income tax.

So by simple maths
£23,000 - £12,570 = £10,430.

20% of £10,430 is £2,086, so his annual income tax out of that £23,000 a year is £2,086. Which means his annual income after they deduct income tax is £20,914. That is £1,742 a month......

We have not deducted NHS and other deductible taxes from that £1,742, we haven't touched on your personal bills and utilities......

Anybody, earning £1,917 monthly before taxes is considered low income, anybody that earns £1,917 monthly before taxes that supports a family is considered poor in the UK!!

At #6,000,000 a year in Nigeria Sir, you are not poor. If they paid you that #6,000,000 here in a year, you are more than capable to live a comfortable life, dress well, buy a good used car, raise a family, send your kids to reasonably good schools and if you manage money well, build a house in one remote area to retire to as a pensioneer.

Try and achieve the same feat in the UK on £23,000 a year and see whether you no go jam rock!

Iamzik:


No I'm not blind. How much is 700 dollars in naira compared to a manager's salary in Nigeria?

You obviously know nothing about banking in Nigeria if you are celebrating 700 dollars per month as good pay

LooneyLester:
At least he falls sick he'll get a benefitting health care

emperor4love:
how much is it and which bank manager make such amount after such expense in Nigeria....oga go rest no get time pls

coleon:

Many of you just say rubish online out of ignorance. A manager in most new generation banks earn between 2-3m net in this Nigeria monthly, and you think that one is not ok by Nigerian standard.
Even if you make that amount monthly by doing menial jobs abroad,the bills you will pay will make you have nothing left.

Gerrard59:


With that, I see you don't know what it means to be a bank manager in Nigeria.

We agree to disagree.



MSN1,

Those are the people you term "causal workers".

Winnin009:


You’re still saying nonsense. Lol. So after he pays taxes; he still have well over 20m to himself. His tax covers healthcare care(which is one of the best in the world, you can see your leaders flying there daily) and education which is still one of the best j the world.

When you calculated taxes and still said he still has to pay for healthcare, it was obvious you don’t know what you’re saying. A simple google search will save you from that ignorance. (Unless he wants to pay privately for health insurance)

You must have really low standards to think one can live comfortably with 500k monthly with family of four and paying school fees, healthcare, light, gen and feeding.

You highlighted the cost of food like akpu is the only food there. It’s common knowledge that food isn’t a luxury there like it is here but you can believe what you want.

Just don’t come with phony stats like you’re talking to some uninformed individual like yourself.

He say na access to better clothes; lol. See your reasoning. Lol. What you call better clothes here are cheap clothes there. You’re still making no point. I’m not sure you have anyone abroad and if you do then stop talking to them. They clearly don’t like you.

Build one house in one remote area after saving all your life as a bank manager; like I said, you have low standards. Lol.

This uk guy with 20m to spare will live a more comfortable and fulfilling life lol. In five years, he’s already building his first house while you’re still saving up your 500k that loses value with each passing day. When he comes back home, because of his diligence to work and the way the system reward works, the bank manage will trip over his laces to please the window cleaner.

Let’s not even talk about the kids; from an intellectual standpoint, they won’t even be mates. Do you think the bank manager can afford the latest gadgets for his kids when they want? I can tell you for free that he cat try that on a 500k salary. I’m sure you know that garbage disposal guys can literally afford to get their kids the best of gadgets.

You talking about a car; 😂😂😂
The manager would have to save to buy a car of his own (unless of course the bank gives him an office car) and will only be able to do that after years but with the window cleaner job, the uk guy can get a car after about 6 months or less of work.

Please, the difference is basically light and day.

Also note this; someone making that money in the UK might be in the below average income family in the uk but definitely not by world standards but the bank manager isn’t even exactly comfortable in Nigeria and across the globe, he is downright poor! That’s $500/month you’re justifying!

Iamzik:


You need exposure to cure this your poverty and scarcity mentality.
Managers are well paid and I don't need to argue about it. It's a fact

TOPCRUISE:

Do the maths.

matify83:
If that former manager will want you to "off the mic" when it comes to what he does abroad, their-in lies the true answer.

The truth is that considering the dollar to naira exchange, the pay out there is huge but because you are spending it in their economy, your rat race just begun!

ehissi:


Well I guess you are well informed and I am not?

Let me understand something....

I said his take home pay after income tax deductibles is £20k+, you say that is still #20million, as though he will live in Naira based on cost of living in Nigeria in Naira or live pounds based on cost of living in the uk, okay.

You said someone earning £1,917 will build his first house in the UK within 5yrs (not mortgage ooh, not buy, build his first house in the UK), please bless us with your wisdom and tell us parts of the UK where someone who earns £1917 pounds a month will be able to build his own house within 5yrs. How much do you think it costs to buy a house in the UK, let alone build one?

Also you said a window cleaner of high rise buildings in the UK may be below average income based on UK standards but not world standards, but the Bank manager in Nigeria, earning #500,000 a month, based on all standards across the globe is poor?

Also you said, a bank manager will have to save for many years before he can afford to buy a car, but a window cleaner of high rise buildings will be able to afford a car is 6 months or less ?

Well dem don first talk am say na only 3 people you no fit advise for this life.

People whey newly join APC! People whey fall in love and people whey never enter UK!

erico2k2:

The kind of health care our president that year refuse to allow to check his ear?? is that the one you are talking about, or you got another one

ChybuzzDD:


Story! No be only 5-6k pounds per month
