All of these people "Public and Civil Servants" are expected to live in the same society, go to same market, pay same house rents right ?

Until this disparity in salaries is resolved and there's an equilibrium across cadres, there'll still be corruption in the civil service.

The worst is the jumbo pay those senators and house of Representatives get, it's the major cause of conscienceless corruption that has rubbed Nigeria to her marrow. Those legislators don't deserve the pay they get. Until we're able to address these issues and the cost of governance, there's no fairness and equity....

MrPsalmist:
Hustle and don't just depend on this chicken change.

Salary is what they pay you to forget your dreams

Story, and how many of the dream chasers earn better than the salary earners.
Contrary to claims from the so called "self employed", salary earners still make up a larger percentage of upper and middle class spenders in the country.
Someone will not be contented with what he has,but will choose to rubbish another person's hustle to validate himself.
Everyone should become entrepreneurs nah and leave the offices to robots to run.

And the said government jobs are really difficult to get nowadays.

OlawaleBammie:
pls wat is d difference between agency and ministry

NNPC - Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation.
NLNG - Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas.
DPR - Department of Petroleum Resources.
NEF - National Ecological Fund.
SEC - Securities and Exchange Commission.
CBN - Central Bank Of Nigeria.
BPE - Bureau of Public Enterprises.
CAC - Corporate Affairs Commission.
SON -Standards Organization of Nigeria.
NDIC - Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation.
NCC - Nigeria Communications Commission.
FAAN - Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria.
NIMASA - Nigeria Maritime Administration and Safety Agency.
NCS - Nigeria Customs Service.
FIRS - Federal Inland Revenue Service.
INEC - Independent National Electoral Commission.


Those are agencies, but if you hear something like Ministry of agriculture, ministry of water resources, ministry of information etc there are some departments under them. So they earn little.


In short agencies earns more than ministries and there are some agencies that generate revenue by themselves e.g EFCC, inec Nafdac firs NDLEA FRSC nnpc, nlng , custom etc

And there are some allowances wey dey agencies wey no dey ministries.

Lol...

No mind Dem..

After service back then I was chasing my dream up and down and suffering because doing business in this very unstable economy can be nerve wrecking..

I finally decided to get a job and it pays my monthly bills with a good savings as well..

Chasing dreams and hustling in naija no easy at all

The worst discrimination is that of Senator's/ Reps. Whether they Sit or don't sit, appear or don't appear , they still receive jumbo salaries and allowances for absolutely doing nothing. A senator/Rep would be there four good years without tabling any motion or giving contribution and be earning millions Monthly.

But Some of those ministries have cartels involving the Minister, Directors, Finance head, Audit head that when they form Voltron, the End result is BILLION$$$.

Where the Damn attachment??

Artiiclebeast:
Just see how everything is haphazard and you expect there not to be corruption and ineptitude in the system?

Where workers are unmotivated, they'd give below par in the discharge of their duties and motivate themselves by corrupt means.

How do you expect a civil servant who even earns 100k with a family of 3 kids to survive without soiling his/her hands to make ends meet when a 2 bedroom apartment, for instance, goes for as high as 800k to 1m Naira in Abuja for instance.

I keep saying it that to get this country back on track, we the youths need to get together, bring to the table our 21st-century ideas, sack these failed analog rogues, uninstall the present operating system of the country, and reinstall a more modern version of the operating system with an incorruptible and fire-wall proof anti-virus/corruption system.

As if the so called youths are better

Civil servants vs Public servants

According to the then Head of Service of the Federation in 2018, Ms Winifred Oyo-Ita.....

Oyo-Ita, who is a member of the minimum wage committee constituted by President Muhammadu Buhari in 2017, said there is ongoing deliberation on the pay disparity between the public and civil servants.

“There is a difference between civil service and public service, civil service is a subset of public service, so you find that in the enlarged public service we have parastatals that are earning fantastic sum of money and we have military and para-military earning money that cannot be compared to that of the civil servants.

“This core group of civil servants are just about 80,000 and they earn peanuts. A driver in the civil service earn as low as N18,000 to N20,000 a month.

“You have a director who has been in the Service for over 30 years, due for retirement is having a monthly take home of about N300,000, whereas that is the starting point of some graduates in some parastatals.

“In some parastatals, fresh graduates are starting on N250,000 – N300,000 and you want the director to go and supervise such agencies.

“All the issues of pay disparity will be addressed in the Presidential National Minimum Wage committee.”

Categories of Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs)

BY STATUTORY FUNCTIONS
a. Ministries/Core civil service: The Ministries play a supervisory role to the parastatals. The Ministries are headed by Ministers. The head of service is the most senior civil servant.
b. Parastatals (agencies and departments): usually under a Federal Ministry or under the office of the SGF i.e Presidency.
They have more precise functions according to the Acts that created them. These are headed by DGs, EVC (as with NCC), Director (as with DPR), CFI (as with NAICOM), GMD (as with NNPC), ES (as with PEF, TETFUND) CEO (as with NEPC, NIDCOM), etc

BY SALARY STRUCTURE
a. Harmonised salary structure funded by National Treasury: These includes all Ministries and most parastatals (agencies/departments/institutes etc) whose annual budget including salaries and allowances are funded from the National Treasury. You will always find their budget estimates in the annual national budget.

MDAs in this category uses salary structures like;

CONTISS
CONUASS - for academic staff of universities
CONPSS - for core civil service/ministries. Also the poorest
CONPASS - for paramilitary agencies
CONAFSS - for armed forces
CONMESS - for medical doctors
CONHESS - for health workers
CONTOPSAL -for top officials like NASS Clerk, SAs to the President, NSA etc
CONTEDISS
CONRAISS - for research agencies/institutes
CONPOSS - for police
CONPCASS - for polytechnics and CoE
CONICSS - for intelligence community i.e DSS
etc E many gan ooooo.

b. Special Salary Structure funded by National Treasury: These group enjoy a special salary structure (most times 4-10 times higher) than the CONPSS (the poorest salary structure). However, they are funded from the National Treasury and are included in the national budget. e.g NEITI, NARSDA, BPE, DMO, BPP, EFCC, NIGCOMSAT, ICRC, SEC, DPR etc.

c. Self-funded agencies: Agencies under this category are revenue generating agencies. They fund themselves and therefore determine their own salary structures. NNPC, CBN, NPA, NIMASA, FAAN, NAMA, BOI, FMBN, NCC, PHCN, FIRS etc fall under this category.

BY UNOFFICIAL CATEGORISATION
On the street, among lawmakers during unofficial discussions and among job seekers, we have;

a. GRADE A/JUICY AGENCIES: Agencies that oay 200k and above monthly. Also revenue generating agencies fall into this category. For the lawmakers, these agencies have the capacity to give out mouth watering contracts. NCC, DPR, NDIC, NIMASA, PPPRA, PEF, etc

b. GRADE B AGENCIES: Agencies that pay between 80k -150k but below 200k. NACA, NHIS, NLN, most paramilitary agencies, FAAN, NABDA, NAIC etc. Most agencies fall under this category.

b. GRADE C: Agencies that pay below 80k. All ministries are also included here with the exception of Petroleum Resources, Justice and one other I cannot immediately remember. NIPOST, NIMC, and few other parastatals fall under this category.

Having said that, a level 08 officer (BSc holder) in the core civil service (Ministries and grade C agencies using the CONPSS) earn below 60k monthly as net pay. Level 09 (MSc holders at entry level) earns below 70k/monthly and PhD holders at entry level (level 10) earns below 80k monthly.

An BSc entry level staff at DPR or PPPRA (SS6 is what they call level will earn more monthly than a senior lecturer with over 5 years post PhD teaching experience in a federal university. If ASUU finally joins IPPIS, a Professor will earn less than an entry level BSc holder at NLNG, PPPRA or DPR.

Attached are July 2020 payslips of some civil servants in a federal agency but using CONPSS (same as the Ministries).

PS: I won't entertain any questions. I don't have any connections. I don't sell job slots. I work in a grade B and seeking to move to a grade A. No PMs please. Thank you

@allthingsgood. I promised to quote you.

Wow! Very interesting. You don't sell jobs but you know who does..... right?

Opay bike for sale!!!!

We have senke, sinoki supra, mars, qipia, daylong etc.
Very clean used bikes and very affordable
For more details WhatsApp or call 08182089619

Hmmm it is well though they have access to loan.

babzo:
We are waiting for the attachment. And 2 big questions:
1) What work do they really do? When the Federal Secretariat used to be in Lagos near 1004; you will see hundreds of civil servants standing outside and talking for hours.
2) The money they steal and collect as bribes is it not in billions? As I don't see how the top guy earns 300k per month as you said yet sponsors his child's wedding in Dubai and has 5 multi million naira cars.

Exactly!
I did my IT at federal ministry of works and housing, and throughout my 6 months stay there I noticed most of the workers come in to work by 11 instead of the approved 9am and then there leave earlier than 3pm.can you imagine?
And even when they do stay in the office,they end up just gisting, reading newspapers,pressing their mobile phones.
Our problem for this country plenty sha

The salary structure alone encourages corruption. How married man and children won survive with 70K? Thithe,Rent,Food, Subscription (Data,Nepa,GoTv,Water), Transportation, School fees etc.

God help man for this life oh!

man must help himself for this country

No mind them. They'll talk like they aren't aware of the harsh economy we exist in.
As a young entrepreneur in this country, the odds against you are scary..
You will provide your own electricity.
You will source inexistent credit facilities anyhow you can.
Our middle class the bedrock of every economy has almost completely disappeared; so there is a scarcity of paying customers.
Omo, anything that pays your bills na the sugar pie.
Someone will come and be telling me about chasing dreams. Go to Yankee and Chase your dreams.

Rilwayne001:
No wonder ASUU aren't ready to join the IPPS stuff

they dare not,they know what will befall them if they do

april2018:
9. Polithiefcians

Governors: 300,000,000 per month
Ministers: 500,000,000 per month
Senators: 700,000,000 per month

10.

EFCC Chairman: 5,000,000,000 per month
Minister of Petroleum: 10,000,000,000 per month


: Teachers: 7,000 per month

If the minister of petroleum earns 10,000,000,000 per month, how much will the president earn?

Above all na Govt job still sure pass, lots of benefits dey inside even though the pay no make sense like that... God nor go shame us!!

oga a thief is a thief. And will still soil his hand wether you pay him millions or not

Here's something for you

This is big lie...the salary can be small but I tell you nobody takes home less than 85k in all for federal higher institutions(poly, uni, coe). The minimium entry level for graduate is 7 which has a take home of at least 89kplus.

Nice one @Op,seroliously FG needs to do something about the take home pay of those under Conpss their pay is terribly too poor,imagine this

Let me learn

Depressed101:
oga a thief is a thief. And will still soil his hand wether you pay him millions or not

As you can see up there the current system will only continue to make more thieves out of non-thieves without any incentive or motivation to encourage the non-thieves from becoming thieves just to even survive on a daily.
