I think it is more about countering VAT dodging.

any service or product you pay for is supposed to include vat

so the dodge is pay to my personal account instead of my company account - that way you can avoid adding vat to the transaction

i believe what they are saying is inflows over 5m per month will have to be explained - because the truth of the matter is they are likely payment for services

most banks already now this by looking at payment trends

Emaprince:
The new policy shock me sef.

Must the 5m be about business? This means we will be recklessly taxed

Emaprince:
I think its timing. You dont have to wait until its at the tip.

I get you though...but then you have to understand the women you are dealing with - knowing when they are just past ovulazione so you can be very safe as well.

The really talented ones are getting by, the less talented ones, not so much, they resort to begging students and taking bribes to get by. It's a sour situation which I believe would be a lot worse in schools outside of Lagos and the big cities.

The quality of living of lecturers today are back to the pre Obasanjo and PDP years.

I doubt any right thinking man will want his wife to stop earning because of 400k a month income. Men even hustle to open good businesses for their wives and a poor man on 400k will want to stop his wife from earning ?

I choose to believe that it’s a case of marrying a very young woman who hasn’t figured out life past doing sales girl.

UNESCO runs, This is where you see them going to South America and North America to teach Ifa and Yoruba religion. All those white people coming to Naija unis to study Yoruba language.. Na under one Prof dem dey work

“What if something bad happens tomorrow and you lose your kids?” I honestly don’t understand how people even think like that. So you're planning your entire life around tragedy? If something bad happens, life still goes on. You don’t live in fear of ‘what if’. That mindset is why some people have 7 kids with no plan.

This is the owner of the payslip. There are professors in my line of work who are roster consultants with UN and EU Agencies. Their hustle does not end in a classroom.

I can understand professors in professional courses like Medicine, engineering, law, etc engaging in private practise which can fetch them good income that will supplement whatever they earn from the university system, but what about professors in fields like Languages, Religious studies , history, library studies, etc?

swiz123:
He got it wrong by marrying a liability as a wife. That’s a reasonable income for a man whose wife earns half of that.

TemporaryHansel:
I said on this same thread that I plan to do a vasectomy after one or two kids, and they turned on me like I committed a crime. Even before Buhari entered office, I never liked the idea of having many children. One or two is enough for me.
After that, I know I can’t rely on CD forever, and I also don’t want my woman’s body going through unnecessary changes because of family planning, which seems like selfishness to me. Vasectomy makes the most sense for both parties.
I’ve noticed a lot of Africans are obsessed with having plenty kids like it’s a competition. That mindset isn’t for me sha.

semid4lyfe:
Me thinks even 3 kids is aseju in this economy, and the perfect number for his income bracket is two.

The economy ain't smiling and everything don quadruple in price. Creche/school fees, food, clothes, rent, healthcare, transportion,cutility bills, groceries, school books.....you name it.

So people gats align their family size with their pockets for peace of mind, financial stability and ability to invest QUALITATIVELY in their kids future, and not just drag them along.

Also, people gats abandon that shit of "make we try once more for a particular gender" cos it doesn't end well most times, and don make many couples born pass wetin dem fit handle.

Once una get your desired number of kids, just lock up no matter their gender. And in locking up;

No do withdrawal method❌
No do safe period method❌
No go dey drink neem oil❌

Cos all of dem dey fail.

Visit a proper clinic or health care facility, and adopt a proper birth control/,family planning method guided by a professional.

Make I rest my fingers for now.

They seek and get lots of foreign research grants as well running into thousands of dollars, which they even end up using school resources to carry out, no lecturer wey sabi him way dey depend on salary from FG sef……that Hilux you’re seeing sometimes even follows the grant

TemporaryHansel:
Yeah. Back then I knew few lecturers who did it, I think the money is taken from their salary directly. I don't really remember much, but it seemed like the school authorities were the ones overseeing the cooperative. So, you can't possibly default unless FG doesn't pay salaries.

TemporaryHansel:
Loans na. They have cooperatives in school that they take loans from.

TemporaryHansel:
In Nigeria, if you’re not popping out kids like rabbits, people think something’s wrong with you. My big bro has been married for over 11 years, has one child, well-educated, doing well, yet relatives still talk trash behind his back like he’s defective. All because he chose to be intentional about parenthood. I'm literally the only one in the entire family who gets him. Truth is, most Nigerians hate structure and planning. They treat kids like furniture, just keep having them without thinking about the future. It’s madness masked as culture.

if you are IN THE CORPORATE private sector you mean

plenty of private sector get cash flow wahala or just bosses that dgaf

semid4lyfe:
Baba, don't be too sure o. Working for government sef dey in levels. Na only civil servants/govt employees dey get the short end of the stick. Political appointment dey make sense wella. Na wetin make that UK PhD CV writer dey hustle commissioner of education.

Shey if your state governor wan appoint you as commissioner of finance, you go reject am?

Roland17:
The fact that someone as informed as you is asking this important question is an indictment on the Lagos State Independent Electoral Commission. Information like this should already be public with widespread reach, so people can plan accordingly.

semid4lyfe:
As someone in the system, I can confirm that it's true....and it's not just academic staff of universities but staff of all Federal Tertiary Educational Institutions (Universities, Polytechnics and Colleges of Education).

And this shit of delayed salaries began last year October when the FTEIs were migrated from IPPIS to GIFMIS salary platform.

My institution's Bursar released a memo on the issue and blamed FG for the delay. According to the memo, lack of cash backing from the Office of the Accountant General is the reason for the delayed salary.

◾Wage award we no see.
◾EAA still dey hang.
◾2023 arrears of 25/35% increment, yet to drop.
,◾Monthly salary wey we dey take hold body, delayed.

Sometimes, I dey feel like some of PBATs appointees dey deliberately sabotage hin government. Surely, it can't be that difficult to process and pay salaries timely. Also, PBAT needs to exercise better oversight over his appointees because the buck stops at his table, and na hin dem go blame for failures like this.

Me. I for no too worry if no be say I carry funds go register my last born to begin school in September, and paid first term schl fees of hin elder bro & sis. Also bought a new battery for the car and did some maintenance so account don red.

Anyways, hats of to all men cos na grit and grace many of us dey take run this life.

Edit: The salary alert don dey enter but e never reach my side.

I'm sure if Okpa has shown this level of passion about migrating to his beloved NK, China or mother Russia, by now he'd have achieved his goal.

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has begun a nationwide strike action following the non-payment of June 2025 salaries to its members.

The union has instructed all branches across federal universities to withdraw their services in line with its "No Pay, No Work" policy.

ASUU President, Prof. Chris Piwuna, confirmed the development in Abuja on Monday, stating that the action is based on a resolution by the union’s National Executive Council (NEC). According to him, NEC had agreed that lecturers would down tools if salaries are delayed beyond three days after the end of the month.

Branches at the University of Jos and University of Abuja have already commenced the strike.

Prof. Piwuna criticised the government’s "lackadaisical attitude" towards university lecturers, who he said are already struggling with inadequate pay. He blamed the Office of the Accountant General of the Federation for the salary delays and said despite previous meetings with top officials including the Minister of Education, no action has been taken to address the issue.

Since the migration from IPPIS to GIFMIS, ASUU says its members have faced persistent delays, although the payment platform itself has posed no technical problems.

“We are tired of talking about this,” Piwuna said. “We want to work, but they have not allowed us to.”

He also warned of fresh agitation if the remaining ₦10 billion from the Earned Academic Allowance (EAA) is not paid. The government had pledged ₦50 billion but only disbursed ₦40 billion.

ASUU maintains that the strike will continue at any university where salaries remain unpaid.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
This is stale. We're talking about your inferiority complex. The Spanish PM called your favorite a genocidal State.
Can you also tag him a terrorist sympathizer too ?

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
He no get that mind. Even to criticize the King or the Spanish pm that lambasted Israel. Na him follow Nigerians him small blue deek dey rise.
Now, I understand perfectly how the European colonizers successfully annexed some colonies in West Africa without firing a gun. People like him were in abundant in such region.

GloriousGbola:
We had one boss like that. They had to FIGHT for his us visa.he was going to Harvard for a training. This guy had gone to Saudi on hajj several times. And that is apparently a terrorist red flag. He was turned down at least once. Company had to intervene.

Those who need your advice will take note

LordAdam16:
Why do you think you are the first to display inferiority complex by using the visa update as some sort of repartee?

Does Ireland and Spain have that rule?

Support the genocide and schrodinger terrorists!
If you're going to display inferiority complex, I'll call it out.
Western citizens recoil at the genocide in Palestine.
So can citizens of any other country.

Of all the things you could use to justify genocide.
Na visa. 🤦‍♂️

Go apply for your visa.
Tell them Satanyahu can eradicate every Palestinian.
Enjoy your trip.
