Good evening fellow Nairalanders, a friend of mine is working and campaigning seriously for some to become governor in his state in 2019. My friend is a Federal oil worker But he is not OK with his pay so he is seeking for political appointment in his state in 2019. But my question is how much is a commissioner and other political appointees paid? I mean their basic salary not allowance? This will also help to guide him in making his decision should he loose his Job he will not commit suicide. Also is there any other benefits apart from the salary? My fellow comrades and great politicians your contributions will be highly appreciated. Thanks 2 Likes 1 Share |

FCT ti take over! First time in many years. I dedicate it to nairalanders who believe Nigeria shall be great again. Commissioners don't disclose their emoluments as e get several allowances attached. 6 Likes |

it varies, Most State commissioners are paid according to the Civil service structure, that's the ministry to which they are appointed into, the state to which they are appointed (Akwa Ibom state may pay higher than Ebonyi state), you mentioned other political appointments  be specific, too vague, which particular appointment?One thing to note is that in Nigeria, there are lucrative appointments, that they appointees can successfully loot the resources Example, the Nigerian's Minister of Petroleum has more money to steal than the Minister of Commerce... And I can see your friend is grooming himself to be amongst the looters of this shithole, congratulations to him in advance. FYI, a personal assistant to a governor can embezzle more money than 4 state Commissioners combined. Personal assistants are the people that help Governors do their dirty games, they are mostly rewarded heavily, commissioner na just name, packaging.... How many times have you heard Governors sacking their personal assistants  , but commissioners are usually sacked constantly..If your friend wants to steal with ease, I advise he chooses a Personal assistant, because no much media attention, no known responsibilities, no accountability, i'm talking about personal assistant, not special advisers, the are not the same thing in Nigeria. 52 Likes 6 Shares |

Ask dnb stories by d way, are you asking for you or your friend? Like politicians in Nigeria really depend on their salary when they can make three-folds of it in one night of stealing 3 Likes 1 Share

Unfortunately politics is the new Oil Company or Blood Money. Money + Power . Few people serve to serve the people most are in it for the dough. |

Your friend is not supporting the Governorship aspirant because of salary. He is supporting the aspirant because he or she knows that being government appointee is the easiest and surest way to make it in Nigeria. 2 Likes 1 Share |
