| Nigerian Civil Servants Will Receive Their Salary And Fall Into Depression by guobe(op): 8:34am On Oct 24, 2025 |
The salary for the month for state civil servants that have worked for 15 years is barely 200,000 naira which is less than 200 dollars which is the amount earned by someone clearing grass in a day in UK. Once the civil servant gets his salary at the end of the month, he goes depressed as the money can't take him home. Due to high cost of rentage, he joins contribution of 80,000 naira for 10 people, and this money is for the Landlord at the end of the year. He gives his wife 60,000 naira for feeding and the wife grudgingly collects it as it is impossible in this present economy to survive with that amount. He spends on transportation, he also has dependants like his dad and mum and siblings and also hospital bills for his family and that of his parents. The salary he was receiving 10 years ago has more value than the present salary as naira was stronger then. The future looks very bleak for the civil servant as there is no more gratuity unlike before as it is now contributory saving as it is what you save is what you will be paid when you retire. No wonder Directors are now quitting their duty post and travelling out of the country because they see no hope. Nigeria we hail thee.

guobe:Cutting grass in winter with all your UK 15000 pounds degree at 38 year is degrading and humiliating couple with daily treats of Reform UK kicking the grass Cutter out of UK So I rather be chopping Najia govt 200k with zero stress and use the 15000 pounds or 30m to do Business Example if I order Dangote fertilizer 720 bags at 38k each Will sell for 41k 720*3000=2.1m This 720 bags sell out in a Month and repeat the cycle . So you can see the UK grass Cutter is no better Than the Civil servant with 30m capital and business knowledge in Nigeria The Nigeria Civil servant with this Capital will come to UK with a 1000 pounds to 5 days holiday he will see his fellow Nigerian Mopping the Hotel Floor after spending 30m +UK MSC to Japa |

Educationalserv:Hmm nice perspective, but not everyone has that acumen for business and also how can a Civil servant raise a capital of 30 million naira from the meagre salary he is being paid. |

guobe:The Nigeria Civil servant is now a welfare scheme not real work .like welfare scheme in the UK unemployment benefits .is not real work Like Buhari was surprise when 70 percent of Civil servant where told to stay home doing Covid and there was no report of manpower shortage. Nuprc pays around 1.8m per Months for starter. NDiC 1m NNPC 1.5 NPA 750k . Orders are poorly paid but you just wake up on Morning and you be Federal permanent sectary with 100 bn budgets to over see |

Educationalserv:I get your point but if everyone abandons his or her duty post to do business, how will the country move forward? Any country that is not able to make its Civil service attractive will always lag behind and that is what we are experiencing. Doctors will abandon their duty post and when a patient needs critical treatment, you won't find him and he dies. |

guobe:Don't believe the nonsense these 2 guys are writing, they are speaking using a very narrow perspective based on narrow assumptions, they just want to deflect the blame from the person destroying the country from Aso rock. What they wrote here is one major reason the country may keep getting destroyed because the solutions they offered are very narrow and does not solve the root cause of the problem you talked about which might only end up even creating more problems...

Educationalserv:Abi now, That money used in traveling abroad and do slave job just to live. If he invest just 10 percent on it on cash crops like cocoa, coconut, palm oil, cashew, coffee, kola nut, castor , pineapple etc. He will make the gain in some years time, and that plant could fruit till next 30 to 60 years if well taken care of. Pineapple for an example, an acre establishment will cost around 1 million or less, depending on where you get suckers. 15k suckers will be around 750k if sold at around 50 naira to 60 naira per sucker. This pineapple grows in 18 months, after the 18 months, if you want to sell, let say you sell each at 250 naira, that’s around 4 million, you will still sell suckers, a plant can have like 10 suckers, the slip, the ratoons and suckers, if you decide to sell all the 10 suckers per plants. You will have like 7.5 million to your 4 million, that’s if sold at #50 naira. That’s around 12 million. But if you don’t sell the suckers but plant it, you have 150k pieces of pineapple after a year and half. The cycle continues. |

guobe:Thank You, you just asked a very good question, this same people would curse a doctor for leaving his duty post to go and hustle for more money, but here they are encouraging the same thing just because they want to defend the failure in chief in Aso rock, they will even be shouting that those criticizing the government are not patriotic but here they are telling civil servants to not be patriotic to the country by leaving their duties to go and hustle for themselves .... Just because they want to defend the failure in chief in Aso rock, just look at the hypocrisy.. |

Tohsynetita1:Do you know how many people have done that and their farms were destroyed by Fulani herdsmen or even killed just doing farming after investing huge sums of money and time? You people just give narrow minded solutions without solving the root cause of a problem... |
| Re: Nigerian Civil Servants Will Receive Their Salary And Fall Into Depression by guobe(op): 10:10am On Oct 24, 2025 |
Brendaniel:Most Civil servants go to work daily as they can be queried if they are absent. The Civil service needs reforms and abandoning duty to do business is not an option. |

guobe:the business and enterprising space is endless in Nigeria That why Indians , Lebanese and Chinese and paying 3m naira for residency they are not stupid . The dysfunction state of Nigeria is what bringing the opportunity for business Doctor and come together to raise Finance to have top private hospitals like Evercare , Duchess hospital in this place doctor negotiate pay . Govt should enforce Health insurance HMO for all Citizens so that Majority can access those Hospital If Nigerians can spend 600 bn on beer 1 trillion on data ,50 bn on wigs then Universal coverage can happen ICEBERG water is own by a Lebanese it mint million monthly selling premium pure water and water dispenser to Middle income group If there was clean water by water boards this opportunity will not arise We are now a Capitalist Nation with huge poor citizens Sadly Socialism and corruption can't develop 220m people country |
