You're even the one here spreading fake news. No FAAC meeting held yet, or I guess you're the one who chaired the meeting where 2.84 trillion was shared yesterday.

You are just confused typing incoherent stuff up n down.

Whitemanbongo:
The Federal Government (FG), 36 states and 774 local governments (LG) in Nigeria shared N2.84 trillion as statutory allocation from the Federation Account Allocation Committee, FAAC, in the first four months of this year (January to April).
Copied from vanguard online news

Jmandotcom:
Noticed no FAAC meeting yet.
With all the changes happening around, I guess salary shouldnt be expected anytime soon.

You should have just asked if FAAC allocation has been done instead of spreading false news.
FAAC was done yesterday pls.

olamilarks:
You are right! Just that the online community's reality no dey match what's obtainable out there!

I can't agree less. True.

All I see on this post is:
Government failure to provide some welfare (Child support+Healthcare).

The husband man's failure to plan for an upcoming event (heck he had 9months to plan for all contingencies)

Societal pressures (Aso Ebi and owambe wahalas of a show offy Nation)

Heck, if I had the time I'd rather blend peanut butter and other farm fresh meals for my baby than expose them to the hazards of mass produced factory made foods (Look up Good Food, John McKenna) Obesity is an unafrican thing but Naija kids fed on those store bought diets have this near obese look, drive thru affluent neighbourhoods and look at the BMI of their kids.


And a majority of us don't earn 700k per month and we manage to raise our families on our meagre paychecks with bits of black taxes here and there!

I don press "submit" before I remember say here Na nairaland not Reddit and I'll be dragged like Tiger gen wire, but it's all good.

Your submission makes so much sense bro.

hybridblood07:

zedegit:
It's not about going to farm but planting some crops on a small scale. For garden you can plant bitter leaf, scent leaf, fluted pumpkin etc. You can grow fruits like oranges, paw paw etc. It doesn't need much work. Crops like cassava in small quantity, cocoyam etc.

Instead of buying everything in the market, you can take those from your garden.

I hope you understand.

That makes sense o!

Aklee4994:
I Dey adjust bruh 😎 I want to start saving 20k monthly starting from this month.

That's better.

hybridblood07:
That's Kaduna oh. I attended NMS

My brother.

Fmghewzy:
I guess both of us don't have then 🤣🤣

Me I have o, e remain you.

Rubbiish:
I didn't say they should commit suicide, moreover there are jobless people that are married, but that shouldn't be the standard. I don't know if u are married with 50k, but I can tell u is a complete life of suffering & shouldn't be encouraged.

I don't even earn 100k monthly, but there are people earning 50k with families and still getting by. In all, may GOD help us all.

chatinent:
In all that's said, it is very wrong to say bikers earn ₦30k monthly. Most of them earn more than bankers! You can take it to the bank.

DSAs and core staff are all bankers, be specific.

maasoap:
You are right, but not everyday. Bike having faults, rain, illness, inability to work due to other reasons. That could still make their average monthly income less than 100k.


Yes. Many civil servants have salary of 25k, 30k, 40k

Oga, not many pls. Don't argue, just accept it.

Dyfynezz12:
If the man does not have any side hustle then dat marriage will be as bitter as hell.
As a single guy self, 50k is not enough 4 me.Only feeding, transportation and internet takes up more than 50k a month

Then watch what u eat, where u go(apart from work) and minimize data usage. U just have to plan with what is available at the moment.

gregng:
Location is very important when u are considering marriage and salary...

From awka can't work for any agency for 300k monthly salary...

Pls can u explain what u typed in the second paragraph?

Aklee4994:
Being a Corp member I Dey earn 53k monthly but still Dey lament before the month end beside am not serving in the state I reside ooo

You better learn to live within your means from this your early stage o!

Fmghewzy:
At least 300k each for both husband and wife naaa.

common sense , you should have gotten this naa😏.

Try to read too, understand the situation and context

If you had common sense you should have just agreed to your kindergarten error n shut up!

Rubbiish:
The bold can't work in this present day Nigeria. 50k monthly for a family of four is not realistic

So all those families earning 50k n below in this present day should go n commit suicide abi? Just dey play u hear? When u play finish go sleep.

easzypeaszy:
nobody mention standard family here oga.
Try dey calm ur soul.. I kw alot of families who earn less dan 150k per month and der kids stil went to sch, survived and are doin great.
Same way I kw millionairs whose kids ends up doin drugs.
200k for family of 5 is not bad
Na u sabi mk u dey look for 5M per mnth b4 u settle dwn.. U wl regret it later in life

No dey take these guys seriously jare. When dem reach there dem go humble.

ozo13:
baba 100k no reach again oo in Kebbi things are very expensive now .I just got back from birnin kebbi market now . Eno easy .Thank God I married an understanding calm lady.1300 worth of tomato/pepper.i don't like bulk purchase because of electricity situation here.

The blender new, weldone.

hybridblood07:
You're not wrong, but in this present economy,
at least 200k is enough to run a home with a child. House rent alone would be more than 400k annually

For the house rent part, it's strictly dependent on location. In Kaduna for instance, you can get a decent two bedroom flat for 200-250k annually. Infact mine is 150k/year. Guess I'm just lucky.

zedegit:
Baby food and pampars are costly. I would even love to get my own house no matter how small before thinking marriage.

Atleast our only worry would be food and if I marry a resourceful wife like my mum, she can tend a garden/farm to help out.

Na this era u wan carry babe go farm? Even village girls no go reason am with u.

samcolee:
How come I'm seeing jobs of less than 50k and people are rushing it abi they are not married

Abeg help me ask all these Elon musk wannabe delusioned boys here o!

CartelKenneth:
Price of pampers a d cerelac alone sef for 3yrs is almost triple the total
Don’t listen to that guy he’s living an abject poverty

If you're a right thinking man and you're quick to insult another man in respect to finance, then you've never heard of 'tides&turns' in life. Be careful.

olamilarks:
This over flogged topic!!

It's a daily reoccurring reality, so it can never be over flogged.

holybabayo:
How much is director salary in civil service? How much is a teacher salary? How much is a police officer salary? How much is a soldier salary? My brothers and sisters, the people that are earning above 100k are blessed in the above categories.
Talk with sense. Complete your university and apply for jobs and good luck

Thanks for your reasonable comment. The classes of people you mentioned make up over 70% of the workforce in Nigeria, and some probably underage or inexperienced people here are just ranting.

CartelKenneth:
This one Na poverty family o
No be standard family🤮

Weldone, standard family indicator. That's why u had to share ur comment urself.

CartelKenneth:
This is fucking terrible. The children will not go to university abi?

I think the income would increase with time. And there are schools for every income class; everyone mustn't go to a private uni.

CartelKenneth:
650k minimum
if not, you’re just deceiving yourself and you'll languish in poverty for all time

Lies.
