Wondering how your number of
sexual partners compares with
others? then you need to meet Marie
Calvert who claims she has had sex
with 3,000 men over the last 35
years. That’s not all, Calvert is married. She said she had only slept with one
person, her husband, until she was
28 when he left a swingers’ magazine
he got from a workmate at home. At first she ignored it, but then started
leafing through the magazine and
decided to give it a try. Since then, Marie and husband have
become addicted. So much so that
they set up a swingers’ club in
Sheffield. In fact, in one night, the 63-year-old
revealed she made out with 14 men
and that the 3,000 figure might be an
underestimate. She said: ‘The night I slept with 14
men was at a swingers’ party in
Manchester. I remember driving there
feeling almost uncontrollably lustful.
The next day I felt achy, in that lovely
way, like when you’ve been to the gym.’ ‘Life is about experimenting and
experiencing, and that’s what we do.
Barry goes with other women. I don’t
get jealous because I know he loves
me.’ She and her husband have written
two memoirs about their sexual
escapades and still remain happily
married withe two grandchildren. Her only regret? That they hadn’t
found the magazine sooner.

Cristiano Ronaldo Who would have imagined that Real
Madrid star player was once of Kim
Kardashian’s sex partners? The Twitter war between Kanye Wests
ex, Amber Rose and Kim Kardashian just got interesting with the mention
of Cristiano Ronaldo’s name. The world’s best footballer was
named in a long list of men who’d
allegedly slept with the TV reality star
including Ray J, rapper the Game,
Scott Storch, amongst others. A photo shared on Instagram by one
of Amber Rose’s fans has more than
19 names. Kim Kardashian’s sex list (Photo

Ronaldo actually had a ‘thing’ with
the Kardashian, although they’ve
been spotted together on numerous
occasions in the past.

The photos which are currently making waves online have attracted the usual reactions from internet users. 46-year-old Grabar-Kitarović took the oath of office on Sunday, February 15, 2015 and assumed office officially the following day. Meanwhile, it is yet not clear as to when exactly the shots were taken even though several reports had it that they were recent shots. The trailblazer is married to Jakov Kitarović since 1996, a union which was blessed with two kids named Katarina and Luka. The first female president of Croatia,

Residents of neighboring
communities to Otta Farms in Ogun
state have
raised alarm over the threat posed
to their health by the outbreak of
Bird Flu on the farm, which hosts a
poultry unit in addition to other
ventures.
The outbreak of bird flu disease has
been authoritatively confirmed to
have hit the poultry unit of the farm owned by former President,
Olusegun
Obasanjo.
The deadly virus, which the
communities said poses threat to
them because of proximity, is raising serious cause
for alarm as they revealed that
every effort made to draw the
attention of the Federal Ministry of
Health
to the issued have fallen on deaf ears.
A resident of one of the
communities, who does not want to
be identified
because he fears a reprisal from the
owner of the farm said “We are worried. We do not even allow our
children to play outside anymore
because
no one knows what can happen.
“Unfortunately, the Ministry of
Health has no bothered to come here to
verify, neither has the Agric Ministry.
This is why Otta Farms has not
bothered to act by doing what is
required, which is to destroy the
sick birds.” The source said.
The strain on virus currently on the
loose in Nigeria has not been
proven
to cross to human but residents said
it is a risk they are not willing to take.
According to Dotun Jimoh who
works in one of the farm units, he
said Baba
has practically abandoned the farm
due to his busy political undertakings
in and out of the country, a situation
which has forced many workers in
the farm particularly the veterinary
section to get themselves engaged
with other life endeavour to help their families while the birds are left
at the mercy of whatever thing that
comes their way.

impunity. Candidly, public officers
do not differentiate between public
and private funds and this is
probably the main cause of the do- or-die politics. All arms
of
government collaborate in the
looting causing no checks and
balances. After the late former president
Umaru Yar’Adua complained about
the nation's dwindling revenues
and that politicians were being
overpaid and causing his
government a financial stress, there was an approved
reduced
remunerative package for the
politicians. Based on the this, each
of the 107 senators (excluding the
Senate President and his deputy)
would be collecting N11 million ($73,333) in basic salaries
and
regular allowances every year
while a member of the House of
Representativeswould get N9.9
million ($66,000). Previously, a
senator was getting N17 million ($113,333) while a House
member
was collecting N14.99 million
($99,933). The regular allowances are
accommodation, car maintenance,
domestic staff, personal assistant,
entertainment, leave, utilities,
newspaper/periodicals and
constituency. These figures do not include non-regular
allowances--
vehicle loan, furniture allowance,
estacodes, and duty tour
allowance and severance gratuity--
which are paid separately to each
legislator as they become due. From a previous salary of
about
N10,000, a police constable now
earns between N22,000 and
N27,000 depending on his length
of service and accommodation
plan, while a sergeant’s pay has gone up from N15,000 to
about
N30,000. And from a pay slip of
about N22,000, a Police inspector
now earns at least N50,000
monthly. Let me give an insight of the
monthly salary of Nigerian police
officers: Constable = N22, 000 (£98) - N27,
000 (£120.27) Corporal = N27, 000 (£120.27) -
N28, 000 (£124.73) Sergeant = N31, 000 (£138.09) Inspector =
N50, 000 (£222.72) -
N52, 000 (£231.63) Assistant Superintendent of Police
= N80, 000 (£ 356.36) - N83,
000(£369.72) depending on
whether he is a one-star ASP or
two-star ASP. A deputy Superintendent of Police
= N90, 000 (£400.90) A full superintendent = N100, 000
(£445.45) In some states, while the state
government claims not to have
money to pay workers, it finds it
convenient to pay politicians
hundreds of thousands as monthly
salary for doing practically nothing than looting the state
blind. How
can a state government justify the
over N300, 000 salary paid to a
ward councilor (and over N60, 000
to a councilor’s wife) while the
highest paid teachers collects less than 30 percent and the
least paid
teacher collects less than 4 percent
of a councilor’s pay. The total
annual salaries of councilors in a
state like Osun State (running to
over N1.4 billion) are enough to employ 2240 workers on
N50,
000 monthly salaries. This is pure
robbery! Yet, they reject the payment of N52,
200 minimum wages that the
national leadership of NLC and TUC
are fighting for. Other Illegalities Of all these allowances,
the most
intriguing is the constituency
allowance. What is constituency
allowance? You may ask. It is an
allowance approved by Revenue
Mobilization Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC). The
constituency allowance as
approved by RMAFC is supposed to
be 200% of the basic salary for
politician but in reality, they are
paid far more than that. The major flaw of this allowance is
that the
law does not require the politicians
to file reports of how the money is
spent. The executives are not left behind,
infact, the legislative plunder is like
a child’s play compared to what the
executives are illegally taking
away from the system. In addition to their constituency
allowances, It is no longer a news
that governors collect billions of
naira as security votes which are
unaccounted for and which makes
everyone wonder which security are they providing with the
money. According to Davidson Iriekpen in
an article titled, Security Vote - for
Whose Security? “Every year,
billions of naira is allegedly
squandered under the guise of
security votes. The funds suspected to be illegal, are
purportedly being used to provide
security for the president,
governors and their domains,
whereas they are being transferred
into personal bank accounts. In spite of these huge sums of
money,
killings, kidnappings, cultism and
other security threats are on the
increase across the states. At the
federal level, funds are allocated to
the Ministry of Defence for the upkeep and welfare of the
armed
forces and the police, yet billions
are still voted for the President as
security votes whose impact is
unknown.” Many of the governors appropriate
the sum ranging from several
hundreds of millions of naira to
billions monthly as security vote.
And also according to human
rights lawyer, Bamidele Aturu, security vote is an illegality
and
irresponsibility on the part of the
country's leaders. He condemned
the governors for appropriating
security votes to them even when
they know that it is unconstitutional. He also argued
that the governors who indulge in
security votes rob the society of
essentialresources. In a report by RMAFC chairman,
Hamman Tukur to the presidency,
"He said the Federal, State and
Local Governments flout the
remuneration provisions made by
the commission through frivolous foreign trips, arbitrary
appointment
of aides and use of excessively
large motorcades. He further said “based on the
constitution, RMAFC has the final
say on the remuneration package
of National Assembly and State
Houses of Assembly members,
while a law need to be enacted based on the commission's
proposals regarding the pay
packages of executive and judicial
office holders.” Notwithstandingthis warning, this
illegality thrives from the
presidency to the council. As the
president takes billions of naira in
monthly security vote, he also take
several millions in constituency allowance. Conclusion Past
surveys of salaries and
benefits of public office holders
from the Baltic to the Bahamas, the
Americas and the Far East and
everywhere else, has showed that
Ministers and Federal Legislators in Nigeria are the highest
paid in the
world, despite the country being
among the poorest in terms of per
capita income, security, social
provision and living standards. On
the other hand, Nigerian workers are one of the lowest paid
in the
world. The Nigerian Minister earns more
than his American, British or
German counterpart, and of course
enjoys pecks of office those ones
cannot even dare dream of - for
doing next to NOTHING!!! Likewise a Senator and his House
of Representativescounterpart in
Nigeria receive much more than
their contemporaries elsewhere. Do you know even any
local
government Chairman in Nigeria
who does not own houses and
fleet of cars? Nigeria is a relatively poor country
and there is no justification for a
Nigerian politician earning much
more than his American
counterpart while others in other
callings earn a fraction of what is obtainable in the US. I
think it’s about time we work out
a ceiling system for the
remunerations of public servants
and tie them to what is obtainable
in certain professions. And until we
get this right, our politics will continue to be a do-or-die
affair
with the greedy lots dominating
the air as their only attractions are
the perks of the offices

Nigerian senator earns more in
Salary than Barack Obama and
David Cameron
Effective from January 1, 2001, the
annual salary of the president of the United States was
doubled to
$400,000 (N60m) per year,
including a $50,000 expense
allowance making the president
the highest paid public servant.
The $400,000 includes everything and $350,000 out of it is
taxable.

the fact
that in addition to the regular and
legitimate salaries and allowances
of N17 million ($113,333) and
N14.99 million ($99,933) which
senators and reps were collecting yearly and the irregular
allowance
of estacodes, duty tours etc, they
were also collecting N192m
($1.28m) and N140m ($0.93m)
respectively in illicit quarterly
allocation which is not provided for by RMAFC. Effectively, a
Nigerian senator was
taking home at least $1.40m
($1.28m quarterly allocations +
$0.113m regular salaries and
allowances) as against the
$0.174m an American senator takes home hence a Nigeria
senator earns at least 8 times as
much as an American senator and
more than 3 times the American
president. Whereas a Senator in the U.S earns
N21, 146,000, the same as a
member of the House of
Representatives; a UK Member of
Parliament earn £64,766 (N14,
896,180) In other words, a Federal Legislator
in Nigeria is paid more than double
what a Member of British
Parliament earns per annum. Senate President David Mark
alone
takes N250 million quarterly or
N83.33 million per month. Senate
Deputy President Ike Ekweremadu
gets N150 million per quarter or
N50 million a month. Mark and Ekweremadu earns in 4
months, six times what the UK
Prime Minister earns in a year.
David Cameron goes home with Â
£190,000 per anum (N43,
700,000) In a Next newspaper news article
entitled ‘An Assembly for looting’
written by Musikilu Mojeed with
Elor Nkereuwem, the authors
rightly claimed that each of the 360
members of the House of Representativeswere getting N35
million in cash money in quarterly
allocation while each of the 109
Senators pockets N48 million each.
These allocations have however
been slashed by 20% to N27 million ($180,000) and N38
million
($253,333) respectively due to the
20% reduction requested by the
late president. The cut has been a source of a
major controversy in the House of
Representativesin the past few
days where members are agitating
to jerk up the sum to N42m
quarterly at a time when the government is lamenting being
broke and when the already
signed 2010 budget is being cut
by as much as 40%. What a bunch
of greedy inhuman lots! The
discordance has caused members of the House to force the
speaker,
Dimeji Bankole to reduce his
quarterly allowance from N140m
($933,333) to N100m ($666,667)
or from an annual allowance of
N560m ($3.73m) to N400m ($2.67m). According to data
obtained from
CIA World Factbook, Nigeria has an
estimated per capital income
(purchasing power parity) of
$2,400 in 2009 as against USA’s
$46,400. This means that the average earning in the US is
19.33
times as much as in Nigerian. With the reduced salary
package, a
Nigeria senator still get paid N11
million ($73,333) in regular
salaries and allowances annually
and N152m ($1.03m) in four
(quarterly) allocation making a total of $1.11m plus irregular
allowances like estacodes and duty
tour allowances. The Senate has allocated N1,
024,000,000 as quarterly
allowance to its 10 principal
officers, known collectively as the
Senate leadership - Each of the
eight other principal officers take home N78 million every
three
months or N26 million per month. Besides, for this year, the
Senate
has voted N2.6 billion for local
travel, N2.45 billion (foreign
travel),N1.25 million (security),
N2.28 billion (contingency), N750
million (guest houses for Mark and Ekweremadu), and N500
million
(establishment of radio and
television stations). The Executive Branch of
government A Nigerian Minister is paid
N31,915,800 (32 million) per year,
comprising salary (2,026,400), and
benefits plus allowances
(N29,889,400), American secretary
(N23,488,000); British Secretary (N29,736,000) German
Minister
(N30,287,667.20)." A Nigeria Minister of State gets N30,
538,248 (salary N1, 957,580;
allowances N28, 580,666) higher
than those of a South African
Minister (N7, 704,558); Compare again to American
secretary (N23, 488,000); British
Secretary (N29, 736,000) German
Minister (N30, 287,667.20) A local government councillor in
Nigeria earn over N1 million per
month while a university professor,
or a director in a ministry is paid
peanuts as take home. The salary review of political office
holders till date revealed that
17,474 officials earned N1.12
trillion yearly of the N1.12 trillion
about N94, 959,545,401.20 billion
is spent on salaries and N1, 031,654,689,033.18 trillion goes
to allowances annually. While 16,540 out of the political
officeholders, as revealed from the
document emanating from the
Presidency to the Revenue
Mobilisation, Allocation and Fiscal
Commission (RMAFC) are expected to undergo a pay cut in
line with
former President Yar’adua’s
proposal earlier in the year, this is
yet to take effect. The officers are: Federal Executive
(472); Federal Legislature (1,152);
Local Government Executive
(3,096) and local government
legislature (8,692). According to the document,
officers taken this large lump sum
evidently, approximately 17,500
officials only constitute 0.014 per
cent (less than a quarter of a
percent) of Nigeria’s estimated 140 million people. Again, it
is common knowledge
that the salaries of these officers
amount to nothing compared to
the juicy fringe benefits that accrue
to them. It could be recalled that ministers,
advisers, legislators salaries were
all jerked up in 2007 and 2008.
While the members of National
Assembly got 100% pay rise which
would cost Nigerian tax payers N52.4 billion every year, and
an
additional N15.02 billion as multi-
purpose allowances given to the
lawmakers on quarterly basis, the
package accruing to the federal
executives had jumped by over 1,000 percent to N98 billion
due to
their allowances as compared
N65.5 billion paid the federal
executives during the last regime. The last time Nigerian
workers ever
had an enhanced salary package
was in 2000 when former
President Olusegun Obasanjo
announced the N5, 500 and N7,
500 minimum wages both for state and federal workers
respectively. Comparison of the Salaries of
Politicians vis-a-vis other
professions in USA and Nigeria The politicians’ salaries
listed above
might look big to you but if you
look at what is obtainable in the
society, you’ll surely get the drift.
I’d like to compare the earning of
these top political positions with those of surgeons in
America. According to ehow.com, several
factors such as experience,
employer, location, gender and
degrees may affect the earnings of
a heart surgeon. Salaries discussed
here are median earnings from 2009. • Degree: A cardiac
surgeon with a
Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) degree
will earn an average yearly salary
of $292,774. If he has completed a
Ph.D., however, the annual salary
may rise to $400,000 on average. It can be inferred from
this that a
surgeon earn as much as the
president or even more. And in
nearly all cases a surgeon earns
more than the VP and other public
office holders. In the US, top attorneys in a top
legal firm earn as much as
$500,000 annually, a top journalist
(like Christiane Amanpour) earns
over a $1m, Wall street guys and
top business executives earn $ millions in salaries, benefit,
stock
options etc. Top Sportsmen and
Entertainers earn tens of $ million
in salaries, endorsements,
advertisements,profit sharing etc.
Top CEOs also earn tens and in exceptional cases, hundreds
of $
million in salaries, benefit, stock
options and profit sharing. If you consider the fact that
many
top politicians were also top
earners before joining politics,
you’d be able to understand the
sacrifice intended. The annual salary of the Surgeon
General is about $190,000. It’s a known fact Michelle
Obama,
the US first lady was earning much
more as a hospital administrator in
Chicago than her husband,
President Barack Obama was
earning as a US senator. According to the couple’s 2006
income tax
return, her salary was $273,618
from the University of Chicago
Hospitals as Vice President for
Community and External Affairs,
while her husband had a salary of $157,082 from the United
States
Senate. In Nigeria, political offices are often
seen as a get-rich-quick avenue
because the legitimate salaries and
benefits are enormous and are
probably unobtainable elsewhere
in the system. Another reason is that politicians can also
meddle
with the public funds with
