MikeofAfrica:


The problem is can FG handle the effect of such increment. What is good for the goose is also good for the gander. Hence if you pay profs. #800,000, other teachers across the sector will also demand for an enormous increment.
Then the Doctors, Judges, Civil servants, Electric workers etc will embark on their own strikes to demand for their own increment.

BeanmanX:
You re so damn ignorant,,,,so u are comparing to the shithole India,,,why can't you compare with south Africa?.....

Go and confirm how much lectures and professors are paid in South Universities and come back here,,,,,if this isn't the height of stupidity...

ExudeLoveToAll:


That's small, it means if one enters into tgeUnversity teaching profession one can't earn up to a million naira at the end of one's career, very appalling.

Some state University have been paying more than a million to it's professors for years now, the FG can do better.

We need to attract smart minds into the profession by making it attractive. This will also rub off on the quality of graduates produced from our Universities over time.

800k for a professor, that is 9.6miilion a year ,minus other allowances. you guys must be very selfish, and wicked. How much is director at level 16 in a ministry with over 35 years of work salary. Is your job more professional than them. Even permanent secretary salary is not up to 500k. Wicked souls. A teacher at primary school with over 35 years will retire with 70k max, but Una go take almost 800% of the salary. Now I see the reason ASUU is on strike. Federal government should sack all professors, who are into this, and replace them with PHd people who are serious.

In India average salary of a professor is 477,352.78
If not for the devaluation of our currency.

How much are specialized doctors earning.

How much are judges earning. A judge in Nigeria high or appeal court is not up to 400k. Do you know what it takes to become a judge. Nonsense, na only una dey build Nigeria for. Because they call themselves proffers which is a title, then they feel they are superior

How much is universities making for federal government that they should go into debt to pay such amount of money? If universities are making money, they should be able to pay these lecturers with ease.

mrvitalis:
This is wickedness ...less than $15,000 a year for a professor na wah ooh

CzarChris:
I wanted to have a meaningful conversation with you, but clearly you want to take this conversation to the gutters. Well, good luck with that, I'm out of the trenches and you can't bring me down to your level.

Infact all public Universities should be closed down and money to be used to pay the staffs should be channeled to something else. People like me are already out, so continue.

Jemex003:




That’s not too much but those lecturers need a strong law that will hold them down too cuz they cannot be collecting such among and devote their time for part job at private universities. State and federal universities need to pass law on this Profs cuz the 800k will still be useless as usual

dirtydaya:


Are you joking? that is too small considering the economy .

A whole Professor

selopay:
Anything to get the children back to school..
800k is approx 1150usd, not that much but hope FG won't start owing..

BTW, sell your digital currencies to us at selopay..

Wilson500:
My Landlord said that FG should do the needful by increasing their salaries
but
he said that ASUU should sacrifice their 6 months salary as part of the struggle because students have done so with their time
You have to lose something to gain something

Boyooosa:
We are not saying they shouldn't be collecting N1bn per month, afterall their politician-counterparts are earning millions of naira per month and unaccountable billions before they run out of their individual tenures...so, professors should feel free to demand for N1bn per month since they were the ones that trained the politicians how to mismanage the country's resources just the way we are seeing it presently in the country.
But the Nigeria economy can fund the luxurious lifestyle of all politicians down to ward level abi?
We no gree. Them must answer ASUU

But my own concern is, Can the economy of Nigeria sustain such liability? Because, if the current administration is boxed to approve it now, we will not want a situation where the incoming administration will not be able to sustain the payment and thereby, giving the so called professors audacity to come back again and start wasting the time and lives of the innocent students, which some of them are even still in secondary schools for now...

That's the angle people like us are examining it, not their unavoidable rivalry and show of shame two of them have engaged themselves for the past 6months now

womenareapezz:
can you tell me which organisation is paying 35million monthly

Even big firm like nnpc MD or director pay ain't up to 500k per month
800k salery is just nonsense

Ernchibyke:
Sounds good...
But how can an SA to the president be paid 1m. And we're here dragging and suggesting a prof earn 800k, after years of study and research work

ATLIEN2027:
The federal govt should get out of this federal university business. Privatize the schools or give them to states to manage.
Allow people 5o page for schools they can afford and just provide some subsidies.
The unending saga of constant strikes enough.

CzarChris:
Let me say that you are not speaking from a stand point of understanding. How many directors of level 16 are PhD holders? Of primary school teachers that are Masters degree holders? Remember that those specialized doctors are also taught by professors in that field. You spoke about Indian professors, but I thank God you corrected yourself by hinting on the devaluation of our currency, our money has absolutely zero worth as it is right now.
Do you know that you keep publishing in journals, both local and international, you do research with zero support from our government or industries in the form of grants. So you do your research from your own pocket, you pay for your publications (most times in dollars) from your own pocket. And you say 800k is too much? HABA!!! Get small conscience nah, I published 2 papers in international journals last year the cheapest cost me $100. By our current exchange rate, that's around ~71,000naira now, don't get me started on my ongoing protons exchange research, that's costing millions of my personal money, I send samples to labs in Canada and Netherlands because we don't have the needed equipment in Nigeria here. A course mate of mine who lectures in the UK was given a €2,000,000 grant by the EU. TWO MILLION EUROS!!! Do you understand where I'm coming from now?
Well, not that it matters to me anymore now. I have been disillusioned by this country as it is right now. So goodluck to y'all.

UrProguy:
You people should just call off this damn strike already and stop holding students ransome, if they increase the money, how much will you settle the students you have driven to debts already.

You can as well pay a truck pusher in the market N1m a month. Federal Government should sack all professors and replace them with who?
There is nothing in your skull.

Benchmark these figures you listed with what these politicians earn then you'd understand their griviances.
