How Nigerian Lawmakers Have Been Sucking The Nation Resources Unjustly by Jimoh7555(op): 3:04pm On Oct 17, 2020
A NEW NIGERIA IS POSSIBLE THE TIME IS NOW

How can a system handpicked 360 people and call them peoples' representatives and be doling out millions to them all the time doing almost nothing (O wrong nah) while majority are struggling to feed once in a day? and you call that a system of government! To achieve what and what?!

NO OTHER WAY OF EXPLAINING IT OTHER THAN SLAVERY! Generations unborn will not forgive today's youth that already started the struggle if they allow this struggle to end without achieving tangible positive outcomes!

The country must enter into a new era of good governance and purposeful leadership! Enough is enough! Almost all my brothers and sisters sons and daughters are graduates with good grades doing virtually nothing tangible and some few nonentities will sit in a chamber in Abuja under annoying opulence shouting at each other and grandstanding and at the end of every 20 days collects millions!

That should never be allowed to continue! THE ISSUE HERE IS NEVER BUHARI, IT IS GETTING NIGERIA WORKING FOR EVERYONE!

The time for change is now!!!

Emir Sanusi Lamido Sanusi To President Buhari:

A Soldier salary is 49,000 forty nine thousand naira, some no accommodation they rent house outside the barrack no risk allowance instead they sleep inside bush fought to defend the Nation.

Where is the change?
Change should start with the National assembly: = A Senator receives N36,000,000 (thirty-six million Naira) monthly. If this is divided into two = N18,000,000 million (Eighteen million Naira). The second half which is N18,000,000 (eighteen million Naira) can be used to employ 200 Nigerians, each earning a salary of N90,000 (ninety thousand Naira) monthly. When you multiply 200 people with the number of Senators (109), this will give 21,800 Nigerians gainful employment. In short, 200 Nigerians will be able to live a comfortable life on half a Senator’s monthly salary.
A member of the House of Representatives receives a salary of N25,000,000 (tenty-five million Naira) monthly. If this salary is divided in two = N12,500,000 (twelve million and five hundred thousand Naira). The other half, which is the sum of N12,500,000 (twelve million and five hundred thousand Naira) will be enough to employ 135 Nigerians with a monthly salary of N92.500 (ninety-two thousand and five hundred Naira) each. Nigeria has 360 Members of the House of Representatives, half of their salaries can employ 48,600 Nigerians who can live comfortable lives.

So, Buhari’s Administration can employ 70,400 Nigerians with monthly salaries ranging from N90,000 to N92.500 accordingly. This is just by dividing the salaries of Senators and Members of the House of Representatives. Half their present salaries is more than enough for them in a country where majority of Nigerians live on less than a dollar a day. (Now think of all the other over bloated salaries and allowances of Ministers and others)

You may try this idea Your Excellency, the President...

Nigerians, spread this message to Senators and Members of the House of Representatives and others
