thunder fire all the people wey de Tok anyhow here, they should even cancel the salaries if possible, what abt me that have not received salary since May 2016? Who is concerned? If Jonathan or any of the ex thieves don't get salaries again they will still live in stupendous wealth. Make una no leme vex o. Why is it that when things go bad for the ruiners of Nigerian we complain? Abi e no de affect una too? Instead of complaining how pple are using MMM to survive because Buhari has killed the economy, we are busy talking abt how one ex thief has not been paid, is their salary more important than mine? Nonsense

Who is denying them their right, are they better than the civil servants that have not been paid?
I don't blame you, you might be one of the few beneficiaries!

You see why Nigeria is not prepared to end corruption? People who hold important public positions are paid peanuts, and even the peanuts are never paid as and when due... And when they retire, the peanuts are not paid at all. Yet you don't want them to help themselves while in office? So that they would starve to death or crawl to your desk to beg you for crumbs while you feel important?

The case of my own father would forever be an example that rubbishes any call to integrity in public service in Nigeria. The pious old man worked in one of the juiciest government jobs in Nigeria and rose to a very senior position before he retired. Most of his colleagues including his juniors retired as billionaires or multi millionaires at the very least, while he retired with barely enough to feed for one year... Today, his perennial humiliation whenever he tries to collect his miserable and irregular pension is a sad, sad testimony about why only fools would fail to LOOT mercilessly while they have the opportunity.

The Nigerian society is not yet ready for honest men. The system is not structured to reward uprightness and probity. That's the fact. Until we do the right things to correct this anomaly, any talk about fighting corruption would amount to a spectacular waste of time.

Calbarian:


Buhari's government may more often than not, seem to and truly act clueless but I dont understand the comparison here. As per the past leaders in the thread title, are you saying they were pious men who failed to LOOT mercilessly when they had the opportunity? Are you saying that they ALL paid your dad's entitlements regularly?

Although it's evident that there are different topics of discussion on this issue, I think the point is being missed here. In my opinion, it could either be seen as the government being short of funds or as the government not placing this payment so high on it's priorities list. And probably wondering what the past administrations were thinking when they signed off on it.
