If they are publicly traded then they have to make their compensations public also.

Few are at the top, many are at the base. That's the pyramid of life.

Yahaya Bello can pay all of them 20 times and still have money for 5 private jets. That woman that ran the school feeding program under Buhari, that was feeding imaginary pupils even when schools were shut down because of COVID, can pay everyone there 50 times and still have enough money left to pay all the civil servants of 30,000 civil servants in her for a whole year.

You can now imagine the depth of looting the political class undertakes.

The highest-paid CEOs in the US can earn billions annually, with the most recent record set by Elon Musk in 2025 with a compensation package of approximately $29 billion, structured as restricted shares. In a typical year, stock awards constitute the majority of these high-earning CEO packages, with one recent study showing stock awards making up about 73% of a CEO's pay at an average value of $18.5 million.
