In plateau people now mine their backyard resources to chop directly.
It is better o, becus this type of cheating is crazy! Govt takes ur resources from you, then refuse to provide u what they promised, then force u to even pay heavy tax. The problem with blakcs is always copying white men. We have a different society all together, we must not copy white people. If we had actually run a system of govt that adhereed to our traditions, maybe we could have developed. But we simply copied oyibo who are pure capitalists with no resources that much, that was why they started running around different worlds looking for raw resources. We have a lot of them that can comfortable fix our issues but we are best at looting them by some moda f%cker politician who is not better than u and I but becus of one useless election that is usually fraudulent, rigged, vote buying, they win election and their finances are taken care of for life. Like, bro, imagine being a governor for 4 years and get mouth watering packages for ever and ever until u die. Dont forget all the fraudulent contracts they will award within that 4 years. Damn!

It is a shame to Nigeria army
100k × 12 month = 1,200,000

Meanwhile a US army make $21400 annually that is about #29,472,508

I pity for those men...
21k in the US is poverty wage, earning N1million in Nigeria is far better.

Well, I know military personnel are usually housed and their transport to work, taken care of, but I wonder how far that 100K can go, in today's economy.

The soldiers’ food was okay. There was meat and other things, but he told them to pull them out and make it look like those things were not there,” he alleged.
"Somebody commanded our soldiers"!

No wonder there are reported cases of our soldiers running away from the battle field . No right thinking person will lay down his life for such an amount. Federal government needs to get serious.

A private in Nigerian military should be starting out at at least N200k/month. N100k is just digits. It cannot even take care of basic expenses of a single bloke. Now consider servicemen that produce children like rabbits.

Damn!

And I was even thinking it's 109k so Bwala is even right when said 60k Nigeria Naira is better than somebody earning 2k UK Pounds, now it's all making sense.

A lot is just wrong with this country.

But is it not a shame that people who sacrifice their lives for others are treated so shabbily? What is even a 100k?

In fact, any soldier who is in war zones should be given an allowance of 100k every week plus the normal salary... Bear in mind that some of our National Assembly members who sleep in the Chambers during plenary earn the fattest cheques in public service.
Re: Nigerian Army Salary Increased From ₦49,000 To ₦100,000 by Mathain19(m): 8:08pm On Jul 09
It is painful that Nigeria security personnel are treated like this, what is hundred thousand to today economic hardship... That a security personnel salary is not up to a hundred dollar a month... God Forbid.
