Their situation is not different from an average Nigerian under government payroll. Take our teachers for instance. Their take home pay is amongst the poorest in the world. Most times i wonder how many honest people who are not indulged in corrupt practices survive. 61 Likes 1 Share |

South Africa is good for comparison not Ghana. The Nigerian salary has a better purchasing power than that of Ghana. Things are more expensive in Ghana than Nigeria. 42 Likes 1 Share |

People don’t understand the impact of all the unviable road projects and rail projects APC have been borrowing to do since 2015 … they would keep making us poorer as a people by devaluing naira They tell you naira is falling because we import too much , lol we don’t even import Enough If you look at Nigeria trade balance since 2015 it’s positive 70% of the years and positive cumulatively So why then is naira falling ? Infrastructure done with borrow money …. How ? You borrow money to build a road that can’t generate money to pay back , when it’s time to service debt you print money enter the forex market and boom naira supply increase dollar supply remain same In naira Nigerians earn far more than 2015 but it’s worth far less I always urge Nigerians go and watch obi n osibanjo debate in 2019 that’s where APC policy is exposed and where Obi won me over 100% Listen ,research and learn Soon if we continue like this minimum wage would be 1 million but would be worth less than 70k today 53 Likes 3 Shares |

Security personnel, teachers, health workers l are supposed to be among the top paid workforce. Sadly, this is far from the truth. How can you send a man to stand on the path of bullets for your protection....and you don't even pay him well? Government knows what to do....but will it do it? 13 Likes |

mrvitalis:Once tribal and religious sentiments are discarded, Nigeria will start moving forward. From every indication, he has the qualities needed to change Nigeria in the year 2023 . I heard a minister from the west saying that he is not a bastard from the church pulpit. I wonder what he will be telling his congregation facing terrorists and hardship created by his brother and his cohorts. Today, their business is no longer issue based but attacking anything Peter Obi which is the clear proof that they have nothing to offer. Tinubu cannot even hold a healthy press conference not to talk of interacting with Nigerians. 8 Likes |

What do you expect when Tinubu is mismanaging trillions that should go to a better welfare package for our military. When Peter becomes president next year the least military will be earning nothing less than 2 million naira monthly. 1 Like |

One of the major drivers of corruption, inefficiency, and declining patriotism in Nigeria is the poor welfare and salary structure for workers across critical sectors. You cannot consistently underpay people, impoverish them, expose them to harsh economic realities, and then expect absolute loyalty to the system. When workers struggle to feed their families, pay school fees, afford healthcare, or secure decent housing despite working full-time jobs, frustration and disillusionment naturally follow. A country that rewards politicians with enormous salaries, allowances, and privileges while paying doctors poorly, paying teachers poorly, paying soldiers poorly, and paying other public servants poorly cannot expect sustainable peace, productivity, or national development. Doctors are expected to save lives under difficult conditions. Teachers are expected to educate future generations. Soldiers are expected to risk their lives defending the nation. Yet many of these professionals are often inadequately compensated compared to the political class. Such imbalance sends a dangerous message about national priorities. While corruption can never be justified, governments must acknowledge that poor remuneration and poor welfare create conditions that encourage unethical behaviour. When honest work no longer guarantees a decent standard of living, some individuals become vulnerable to bribery, fraud, embezzlement, and other forms of corruption. The reality is that many Nigerians already provide for themselves what government should ordinarily provide. Citizens pay for private schools because public education is failing. They pay for private healthcare because public hospitals are underfunded. They buy generators, inverters, and solar systems because electricity is unreliable. In many communities, residents contribute money to repair roads, provide security, and supply water. Despite this, government institutions are often most visible and efficient when it comes to collecting taxes, levies, fees, and penalties. Citizens are repeatedly asked to fulfil their obligations, while the state frequently falls short of its own responsibilities. A nation cannot build genuine patriotism on poverty. It cannot demand sacrifice from workers while denying them dignity. It cannot expect integrity from public servants while maintaining compensation systems that leave many struggling to survive. If Nigeria truly desires peace, progress, national unity, and economic growth, then workers' welfare must become a priority rather than an afterthought. Fair wages, decent working conditions, quality public services, and accountable leadership are not luxuries. They are essential foundations of a stable and prosperous nation. 8 Likes 1 Share |

I pity families that allow their brothers or children to join Nigeria military. Due to greed, innocent Nigeria soldiers die in the hands of Boko Haram, the same terrorist Nigerian government sponsor directly or indirectly, by pampering them with rehabilitation, compensation and reintegration into the society. |

🇬🇭 Ghana — GHS 1,000–1,500 (₦157,000 – ₦235,000)This does not make sense. All soldiers of the same rank in the army earn the same salary so there is no range. If you don't know the salary ask, and if you can't get the answer, rest. 1 Like |

It's still hard for some people to believe that Nigeria is not working, but because they are paid to remain blind, their presumed blindness finally blinded them. |

mrvitalis:They will come for you. Why do you think they like contracts that much. It is the easiest route to corruption. You can alter bills, alter rates, alter specifications, alter quality of service and not a single person outside the loop will be aware. That is why they run from the HARDWORK of investment in production, productive enterprises for tangible goods, works and services. Because these are naturally accountable, measurable and open to assessment. In contracting you get the money before the work so the interested parties easily cash out. Real cash. While in real, productive things you only get the money after the work, after tangible things are made, done, served or delivered. And a good chunk of today's inflation is traceable to yesterday's inflated contracts. Ask contractors to deliver and then collect payment via utility aka BOT and watch 99 percent of them including their government aides disappear. 3 Likes |
