Well I think since an aide of a local government chairman can be this rich because he told me he had nothing prior to his appointment then how rich can his boss the chairman be?
He got the fund from somewhere else beyond the LGA legitimate and illegitimate fund, probably used his connection within the LGA circle to get some jobs for his business which earned him nice doe.
I've worked within the treasury department of a LGA before, and privilege to be closer to some senior academic staff, the guy probably just want to showoff to you since you chose to have a different path from politics.

Some uncles are truly useless. My dad singlehandedly raised his little brother till he becomes adult. He sent him to school while my mum linked him up with a job in an oil company. This Uncle of mine doesn't not send any of us, including my mum and his brother my father. We his niece and nephew are suffering with no help in sight. Don't you think we have a right to tell him to his face that he's wicked?
Don't worry. The help your father and mother rendered to him will be rewarded in multiple folds not necessarily through him.

A chairman that is in good terms with his governor earns more. These guys monthly allocations runs in hundreds of millions. If he and the governor has a good relationship, the sharing formula will see him earning more than a VC.
On the other hand, no doubt a VC has access to money, but can't really do much to get hold of it, unless contracts he awarded to himself or family members and kickbacks cos everything he does, there's a supervisory body to check him - the university Senate, ministry of education and even the government if it's a public school.
There's no project or contract he can do in a month and he'll easily cash out 100M without anyone seeing the fraud. Unless he got grant that the entire university was not aware of which is near impossible.
Unlike the VC, the local govt chairman just need to meet with the governor and sign off his monthly allocation once it hits the state govt account, gov take his share, give chairman his own and use the little remaining to pay salaries of workers in the local govt. Now, this is a monthly thing, not occasional as with the VC.

Meanwhile, the possibility of a chairman making this money depends on the state oo and the personality of the chairman. That you're a chairman doesn't mean you can always go-to the governor to go and share money. If it's someone who's not proactive politically, not sure he can pull strings that can make a governor allow him access to funds for aquanderi.
Exactly because back then he once mentioned to me that him and his boss that was a local government chairman went to meet the governor of the state in his personal hometown one certain time like that and said the governor loves his boss(L.GA chairman) so much that he made him to over see other chairmen in a particular committee.

It depends on the local government and also if the VC is for Federal or state University and most importantly who is more corrupt. LG chairmen in most councils in Lagos state and others like Port-Harcourt, Onitsha, Karu, AMAC etc will easily earn/steal more than some VC while VC's of Federal uni like Unilag,Ibadan,ABU,Ife,Unijos,UNN etc will earn/steal money especially those with teaching hospitals.

VC monthly payment is between 750k - 850k, while local government chairman can see that in an hour because of their corruption.

You de really underrate the position of VC. You have no idea.
Local government Chairmen can’t smell 5% of the money VC controls.

He wasn't showing off, infact that his building was named after his name that I know. His house is number 1 on the street. When I went to the duplex, I saw his wife who came out to kiss him lips to lips. We entered upstairs, he went in and changed clothes and came out. He isn't faking it. The Lexus car is his car because I went through the photocopies of car papers when he left me in the car to go and get sharwama then. I wanted to be sure because I was surprised and currently now he is an S.A to the current governor. He posted his appointment letter on his WhatsApp status and I viewed it seeing his name fully.

When the man was a VC, he was still in secondary school and his currently a corper member when the man is not longer a VC. Am still confused of when he was begging to get a job
no oh. The man became a DVC the year we just finished secondary school, he was the head of the governing council prior to then. He became a VC the year I graduated from university so was still a VC when I was job hunting.

he's not struggling to survive. This is someone we know too well.
Not withstanding, his needs are far above yours.
Please take your eyes of him as it will only cause you pain. Your help is not from him: he may owe your dad a bunch of gratitude but he doesn't owe you. Unfortunately, your father helped him because of God and the kinship he had with him.

Look to the sky and take your leap: the worst is that you'd get a broken wing while trying. I want to encourage you to stop waiting for him, take your risks as long as it is a legitimate endeavour.

You never know, if you'd be the person God will use for your whole community. The point is, when you succeed, don't be like your uncle

Former VC of UNN Ozumba Benjamin used that laptop fee to scam students. I know a female student that was a hook up girl that my boss was always patronizing then, so this very day my boss couldn't meet up and I alone was left with the girl at the hotel. Am not that kind of person that indulge in sexual sins so I decided to preach to this girl. She actually told me that she got into the university as a virgin, her parents paid all her fees but couldn't afford the laptop fee of #70,000 so the girl she was squatting with introduced her to hook up to raise the money. After raising the money and paid, she found out that it's like an habit to her like bad habit she can't control so this laptop fees spoiled a good girl. I kept advising her to quit hook up then. This lady was so pretty to be doing hook up. She said the truma of loosing her virginity just to raise the money for the laptop is the main reason she just can't stop hook up. Ozumba is evil for pushing this young lady into this way of life though it was after we helped and reported the issue to a northern federal legislative member that they made the laptop optional the next session after scamming students from the first session in which this girl was a victim. Since then I don't blame hook up girls, you don't know their pains. NOTE that #70,000 as of 2015 was a big hell of money oh! This girl is astonishing beautiful and tall. If you see this beauty, you would loose your mind.

I have never hope on him. I only share my experience when the need arise. I don't have his number on my phone neither do i know the road to his house. He always Kill cow during festive season and he was complaining to my dad's immediate younger brother that we don't come to his house to celebrate with him. My dad insulted the living daylight out of him asking him what does he take his children for? We're not entitled to his wealth but we all know he owe my dad and mum obviously.

Now let me educate some here. A lg boss salary depends on the state. Some states pay the lg boss over 10m like rivers state and co. For eg Abia state pays well above 4m monthly. While Lagos pays above 5m. Do your findings. The salary of a vice chairman is almost as that of a vc in the Fed university. Also the first lady of the lg which happens to be the chairman's wife earns almost above the vc.
you don't know what you're saying. Rivers state LGA Chairmen receive 300 to 400m monthly from faac, some lgas like phalga gets 500m, and trust me in Rivers state LGAs have autonomy.

Have you actually given it a thought that he cannot help you because he can’t!
You’re just being unreasonably entitled. I don’t know the whole story, but most people like you exaggerate situations like this.
Your dad may have helped him a few times with levies at the beginning but here you are making it sound like your dad invested all his life savings on him.
Guy, forget about your uncle and go hustle. Things are hard enough already, please allow the man to find his way in life abeg.

I have always been thinking of this whether a local government chairman earn more than a university vice-chancellor.

I have instances. My ex-school mate father was a vice chancellor of a one federal university like that then but they weren't that wealthy as I expected or is he faking it?

I just met this friend I met during NYSC, he wasn't a corper but an aide to a local government chairman politician. He loves giving me money but I don't like collecting money from people(I love my self respect). This young man of 28 years took me to his duplex which was brand new. He is driving Lexus 350 tear rubber. He took me to a four storey building he built. He is married but when I met the wife she was newly pregnant like 3 months. I keep letting this politician know how life haven't been fair to me etc like I find it hard to get federal jobs. He told me he would have given me a job in the local government if I was the same state with him. He told me he would put me on in politics if we were from his state. I really want to know if a local government chairman is richer than a VC.

My ex school mate that his father was a VC couldn't secure a job for me then his father was VC upon I begged everyday on WhatsApp to him. I felt sad this guy couldn't help me because we were friends in secondary school and he is a stingy person too.

Does a local government chairman of a rich local government earn more than a vice chancellor of a federal university?


You should be very creative . Most people don't depend on there salary ...corruption is the difference btw an honest man and dishonest man .How much hand out will a university professor sell to measure up with a corrupt politicians that gets big allocation from govt . Don't you know that for each project or contract awarded by a local govt chairman ...he has his kick back?. This kick back runs into millions sometimes enter billion

I don't know about that, i just responded to his assertion that they get 10m every month. In Rivers state LGA chairmanship is used to settle political stakeholders in a particular lga, the 400m is just from faac, the igr has not been taken into consideration. I read port Harcourt local government audited annual report for 2021, they generated over 700m internally and received about 3.7b from fg for that financial year.

Now they receive about 5-6b from fg yearly since the new president came, I'm sure igr has also increased.

if vc is a corrupt man, there are lots of avenue for him to make money. Mind you the money that goes to the LGA is not for one person, it used to settle senior party fauthfuls in an LGA. Government recognised traditional Rulers are also entitled to 5% of what they get monthly in LGAs
