I have visited some of these countries and can confirm that based on my little travels it's true.

Nigeria currently has the lowest minimum wage in the entire world with a monthly minimum wage of $64.

The average monthly Minimum wage globally measured is $854.

Sub-Sahara Africa & South East Asia used to be notorious for exploitative cheap Labour however, the CFA Zone and Ghanian Cedi had a currency strengthen in 2024.

The Cost-of-living disparity and significance cannot capture Nigeria based on a weakened & devalued currency and high Purchasers Price Parity (P.P.P).

An example of Purchasers Price Parity (P.P.P) is using the Coca-Cola Illustration ;

a bottle of Coke in the USA = $1.50 (N2,010)
a bottle of Coke in Nigeria = $0.36 (N 500)

Please stop your beer parlour analysis. Do you know majority of people in Nigeria don't earn 500 naira per hour compare to those countries on that list

I am on Band A and we still sometimes have up to 18hrs of electricity in a day....

I think my area is part of the lucky few this period because, I can only imagime how much it would have been costing me to run on generator everyday

I want them to retaliate sef. So USA can deal with them squarely. Ayatollah is a dead man walking already.

I really have doubts about this guy's story.

Sole survivor walking away totally unhurt. Something smells fishy

Seems to me he wasn't even on the plane to begin with, possibly a bystander who got bruised by debris.

Only people who are not vast believe Nigerian politicians are unique. They are the same everywhere as of today.

Loot and strangle the masses to extent that they will be too tired and stressed to protest, and will applaud the most little thing done for them.

Look at the US today, Over 35 trillion in debt and nothing monumental has happened in the country in last 2 decades. Rather, the poor keep getting poorer and the rich getting richer.

Another bill about to be passed which will strangle the middle and lower class and compensate the rich.

I 100% agree with you. They are the same everywhere, their modes of looting and enslaving citizens just different.

What a scary scenario. Thank God for the life of the child. It is good such a thing didn't happen here, it happened in an advanced country. If such a thing happen over here, the child may die because before the hospital will answer you, hmmm

JASONjnr:
This isn't about the party or the president.....

The concept was a good development and it's a welcome idea as countries you look upto also practice this to enable people from not so well to do homes to send their kids to school without struggling to pay the fees.

The embezzlement is between the institutions and the agency in charge of disbursement of funds. The people involved might be Nigerians supporting Obi or Atiku.

I thought Nairaland CNN analysts said the west were the ones that toppled Assad and embarrassed Putin?


Una never see anything yet

Assad is enjoying retirement in Moscow
Putin has ushered wartime rulers in Syria that can match Israel

Israel's attacks since Sunday are panic attacks meant to slow down the eventuality of war.

Once these new guys settle, they will be re-equipped by Putin, Turkey, Saudi, Iran and any other interested state aimed at decimating Israel & the West's interest in the Middle East.

Israel as a sovereign country might not exist by this time next year.

Isreal should leave Syria and focus on ICC case
