What you will read in the post below are very clear indications that we are in serious trouble in this potentially great country, courtesy of the...
level of greed our political office holders exhibit, in the management of our commonwealth, in the midst of obvious poverty in all parts of the country.
I came across these facts as presented by a patriotic citizen and decided to share with you all, so we can be better informed about the goings on in our economic and political space.

# # Senators in the US earn about $6,000 dollars monthly and dats about what a university professor, or a director in a state dept, or a doctor with 20yrs experience, or a teacher with 25yrs experience earn too. But in Nigeria a senator earns 245million Naira per annum! Dats d salary of 25 vice chancellors, or 50 medical doctors, or 60 directors, or 500 schl teachers!
# # The US, almost d size of Africa with about 500million people have 24 ministers, and 32 government parastatals and commissions, Nigeria with 150million people has 42 cabinet ministers, and over 50 government parastatals with its attendant cost!
# # America with about 500million people and more mileage to drive consumes 39million litres of petrol daily, Nigeria with 150million people, 60% out of which live in remote areas, yet our government tells us we consume about 35million litres of petrol daily!
And a last one!!! President Jonathan last bought fuel with his own money in 1996 shortly before coming on board the NDDC! So also is a whole lot of them in government!
It is time to re-think and re-define. We have to remove money from politics. Political office holders should earn what civil servants earn. That's what they are: CIVIL SERVANTS!"
"IT IS NO MORE ABOUT SUBSIDY ALONE”!!!

ReplyDeleteGreedy politicians have always been the problems of this country and unless the citizens can take the protests to the next level, we may likely remain in this precarious state. REDUCE THE COST OF GOVERNANCE BY 75% AND USE THE MONEY FOR INFRASTRUCTURE. ANYONE WHO'S NOT OK WITH THE REDUCTION SHOULD RESIGN!

ReplyDeleteNigerians are fools, real fools, yes they are, how can one person ran away with the money a whole continent can use for 7 years, how can, a whole oil producing country pay more then people who do not have the faith of discovering oil in their land, how can you say, well, i will make money and buy any thing on any amount without looking back to the people who cant have the chance of making the money, see if you Nigerian did not fight this now, in two years coming you will look like chad
ReplyDeleteNigeria past and present leaders are the cause(s) of Nigeria problems.
ReplyDeleteWe do not have leaders in nigeria, what we have are greedy thiefs who can do any thing to convert public funds into their private pocket, God will punish them and their family
