50k to someone without a university education in a country like NIGERIA....and for a recruit.

there are somany jobless graduate out there and some dont even earn as much...i think its fair.

Don't compare educational status, this is the military and your bravery is what matter.

50k in Nigeria is way too small for our soldiers, come on, we're talking of someone wearing his soul on his collar to fight on the f-line, they deserve better.

I believe some are there for passion and the love they have for mother-land, but who else should deserve more if not them.

Btw how much does a L.G.A counselor earns? I believe it's a bigger chunk of money.

Before abacha died no civil servant was on 10k it was abdusalam dat introduced 5k min. Wage and later reduced it to 3.5k. Obj took it to 7.5 and later 12.5. Jona now took it to18.5k. But a lot of people won't believe cos it sound strange that a prof was not collecting up to 10k as at 1998. Tks to ibb and abacha. The rot these guys created will take a generation or two to clear. That was the beginning of impunity and insensitivity in the Nigerian civil service and every facet of our lives.

He who has ears let him hear.

You are one bold-faced liar!

You do not know anything about US military pay scale.

US military personnel make far less than civilians doing the same jobs. But they get a lot of benefits.

A US military psychologist that went to Iraq ( remember it is by deployment) and in less than 2 years made N100m robbed a bank over there. No way in hell.

People just type whatever fulfills t heir fantasy

u wrong sire; Nig. Army recruits . 80k/month; d sub leitenants; -- 180k/month; confirmed n factual;

Its d police recruits dat earn 40k/month.

I heared a conversation with one of the armies who refused to obey their oga @ d top's order to go confront BH 4 they were not given sufficient armouries in Borno on BBC's Hausa radio prgrm, saying;
they are being paid around 45k/mnth, and out of that amount too, 15k are being removed for food or whatever i don forgot sha.

He claimed they were just given one catridge of amunition par soldier some it's not even up to that No. to go 4 d operation.
One civilian JTF when asked said they were given just 30 amunitions each, if they need the amount doubled, they need to bribe the amunition issuer

will u stand under the sun and expose ur life to the danger of death on a daily bases for 80k? Be transferred without prior notice for 80k?


Kuku sidown for house make them come dey pay you nah, that's the translation of what you just said

Police are first responders to crimes like robbery , they don't earn that much

Traffic wardens aka , yellow fever risk being killed everyday , they don't earn that much

Nurses and doctors risks thier lives daily to treat and cure diseases, they don't earn that much

When will the salary be worth standing under sun and risking your life

Why won't they complain....if doctors who claim to save lives earn more than that what about Army who secure lives including properties.

Now are u seriously comparing a medical doctor with a souldier? A doctor that spent 6 years in the university doing intensive study with little time to flex. Then goes to medical school, professional courses etc before becoming a certified doctor. Now u want to compare him with a souldier with SSCE? I wonder how people dey reason sef. If it is easy to become a doctor u should try and become one.

If the salary is that mush to you that you are not considering the lifes of these men then you should take up an appointment with the army too.
