too bad !!!

Yes a DPO named SEGUN shot the victim.

Ironically the victim was just playing football and not protesting.

@emmatok; yes to what?

Just got information that the person killed was not even protesting, 4 of them were playing football on the street and the police came and shot the 4 of them in the legs after some argument and that led to the death of 1 of them and people around are now trying to get police report to treat the other 3, what is brutal incident, the police are just too ignorant, God help us

Seriously, the finance minister just unleashed how clueless they are about what petrol means to the people. She mentioned only transportation which is just one of many issues the removal of the fuel subsidy will affect but she and the government doesnt know that the people are too fuel dependent cos we use fuel to run various types of businesses, genaterate power for domestic uses etc. Just imagine someone that has a car, living on the mainland and working at lekki, The person has to pay the toll fashola just imposed + the N141 per litre petrol for his car and generator, the prices of everything will increase while the government is putting 1100 buses in place to help the people. Its really a big shame that we have people that doesnt know what we need as leaders,

Below are infos i got from a website, where the salaries of politicians in Nigeria were compared with American politicians and European politicians.
Some of the figures given in the thread are wrong.


Analysis

This analyses translate to the fact that in addition to the regular and legitimate salaries and allowances of N17 million ($113,333) and N14.99 million ($99,933) which senators and reps were collecting yearly and the irregular allowance of estacodes, duty tours etc, they were also collecting N192m ($1.28m) and N140m ($0.93m) respectively in illicit quarterly allocation which is not provided for by RMAFC.

Effectively, a Nigerian senator was taking home at least $1.40m ($1.28m quarterly allocations + $0.113m regular salaries and allowances) as against the $0.174m an American senator takes home hence a Nigeria senator earns at least 8 times as much as an American senator and more than 3 times the American president.

Whereas a Senator in the U.S earns N21, 146,000, the same as a member of the House of Representatives; a UK Member of Parliament earn £64,766 (N14, 896,180)

In other words, a Federal Legislator in Nigeria is paid more than double what a Member of British Parliament earns per annum.

Senate President David Mark alone takes N250 million quarterly or N83.33 million per month. Senate Deputy President Ike Ekweremadu gets N150 million per quarter or N50 million a month.

Mark and Ekweremadu earns in 4 months, six times what the UK Prime Minister earns in a year. David Cameron goes home with £190,000 per anum (N43, 700,000)

In a Next newspaper news article entitled ‘An Assembly for looting’ written by Musikilu Mojeed with Elor Nkereuwem, the authors rightly claimed that each of the 360 members of the House of Representatives were getting N35 million in cash money in quarterly allocation while each of the 109 Senators pockets N48 million each. These allocations have however been slashed by 20% to N27 million ($180,000) and N38 million ($253,333) respectively due to the 20% reduction requested by the late president.

The cut has been a source of a major controversy in the House of Representatives in the past few days where members are agitating to jerk up the sum to N42m quarterly at a time when the government is lamenting being broke and when the already signed 2010 budget is being cut by as much as 40%. What a bunch of greedy inhuman lots! The discordance has caused members of the House to force the speaker, Dimeji Bankole to reduce his quarterly allowance from N140m ($933,333) to N100m ($666,667) or from an annual allowance of N560m ($3.73m) to N400m ($2.67m).
