how long will it now take that useless hellanus wey no even get nursery school cert to make 160 million naira in his lifetime

Solidex:

I find it very disturbing to realise that, a citizen of Nigeria can still put up this kind of defence for the current goverment in power, despite seeing the fact and figures in the above writ up.
Shouldn't it border you, that you are being stripped off your dividends as a citizen of Nigeria by a minority fraction of your national population in disguise of legislation? Even if you are not worried about your own self, aren't you concerned about the future of your children in this country?
Are you supposed to defend your oppressor?
Check your sanity, I believe strongly that all is not well with your mentation.

How can he be worried bout his children s future when himself no get hope or future

This was confirmed by Oseloka H. Obaze the Secretary to the Government of Anambra State from 29 June 2012 to 8 June 2015.

Obi isn't wrong, if you are smart enough you would understand he was talking about basic salary and not extraordinary feat you achieve to make you earn even more in your field of specialty.

The comparison of for same government employees in different departments for example one in the legislative arm of government and the other in the educational department of same government. One does nothing extraordinary as u assert to earn that bogus basic pay and allowance and you now require the other to do something extraordinary to earn up to what the others basic pay is what a wrong mentality of comparison. Nigerians like you are the biggest problem of this country, the level of critical thinking skills in Nigeria is abysmal.

Do lecturers in the US have to patent to earn a basic six figures annually? Nope, bring out a patent it goes viral and you become a multi millionaire in dollars but the basic living wage of six figures annual salary is guaranteed as long as you do the bare minimum assigned to you as a professor or a researcher in in the industry.

The comparison is for basic living wage of both profession and not what you are talking about.

You are such a retard.

Obi was referring to earning. You are using your figment of imagination to spin what he says .

Breaking new frontier is what every phd holder worth his salt should be aiming for - that is their job, adding to the body of knowledge. You don’t call it “extraordinary” like you did. Adding “Phd” to your name alone does not bring money.

Though, Nigeria political office holder’s earnings are excessive, there is no where in the world where academicians earn more than politicians. If academicians desire wealth, he needs to have an invention. It’s as simple as that.

Stop breaking a lot of sweat to type like a dolt.

Read my signature, I won’t dignify you with a further response.

So?
Lots of our senators ain't scholarly, they ain't intellectually either, neither are they productive to the state and economy. They just collect fat pay.

ALL OF OUR SENATORS....ALL OF THEM.

Don't let's be hypocrisy how 400 SUV he bought during his tenure as a governor for traditional ruler religious leader during his tenure, and ASU is on strike during that period, don't paint yourself a s a saint when you are not. All politicians are the same. You can abuse oo, kokanye

babajero:
Peter Obi has never been against spending but he is against spending more than you can produce. We have many indigenous vehicle companies in Nigeria what stopped senators from getting vehicles from them. The white vehicle Davido goes around with of recent is made in Nigeria so why can't the senators that claim that they represent Nigeria buy made in Nigeria?

I know many of you type rubbish online because of the stipend you being paid but sometimes still use your conscience.

did he buy the cars or not?

IfnobeGod20:
He bought them but did he bought them during austerity or economy hardship? People are talking of the economy reality that people and the leaders should live above board and stop spending frivolously. He bought SUVs to traditional rulers but he was still able to save for the rainy day and not borrow to do that.
Mr. Man, these people are borrowing and still spending the borrowing lavishly without control. That's what good and patriotic people are complaining about.

is like you had people saying austerity, but you don't know it meaning. You just decided to used it also 🤣🤣

CodeTemplar:
It may take some civil servants 100 years to afford a hajj slot. The assumption for elective offices is that majority of the people are making the best choice. I cant fault an SSCE holder finding himself in HoR or Senate.
The comparison is a lil bit off. How many professors have truly advanced the body of knowledge they are suppose to? Ask them to look inwards for extra revenue and you start hearing about pure water and bread factories as ideas.

To think that 81 people have liked this... We are really in an Educational State of Emergency.

MT:
If the PhD holder breaks a new scientific frontier and patent his invention, it takes that year to earn more than 160M.

Obi was wrong.

However, our constitution is faulty and RMCA who determines the salary and emoluments of political office holder is corrupt

So you want to categorically say that no professor or scholar or educationist from Nigerian schools has ever stumbled on anything ground breaking?

Winnin009:

Some of the most prosperous kingdoms in human history were anchored by uneducated people.

MT:


Then they are not worth the paper called "certificate" their names are written on.

They should blame themselves for that.

Wait o!

Assuming a senator and prof in Nigeria are both incompetent, you think a senator displays more competence in his role than a professor?

Sheggy13:


Since you want to shift the discussion to education, let's go back to the topic of this thread, that Obi raised- disparity in lecturers salary as against politicians.

He was governor of Anambra and by implication the visitor to the Anambra State University. Please tell me if he increased the wages of the lecturers there to a reasonable standard during his time as governor. Or is it now he is out of power he realizes lecturers salaries are peanuts?

The problem I have with Obi is that he talks like someone that isn't part of the system. For God's sake this guy was a governor for 8 good years. The Anambra house of assembly where he could have made changes from, did he reduce the millions they were earning per month while ANSU lecturers were being paid #150k?

This is the reason I say common sense is not always common. Do you know part of the reasons he was impeached twice within his 8 years tenure? Until you can fathom out the reason he was impeached before I can take you serious.
It is not enough to just make blanket comment, you should have sieved your comment and know the meat of the comment you want to send to the audience. Part of the grouse that pelt him with the Anambra State assembly was he refused to play the normal game of bribing them to get things done. And in all the impeachments, courts found the grounds the assembly stood as faulty and that was why courts reinstated him in the two impeachments.
I even thought you wanted to focus on the main issue he raised, which is education but you dodged that as usual. I expected to read from your comment the amount of salary the Anambra lecturers and teachers were earning during his tenure but there was nothing like that. You don't accuse a person blindly without concrete evidence to buttress your point.
In the history of governance in Nigeria at the state level, no governor had invested in education like Peter Obi and he did that by concentrating on both human and physical structure of the sector.

However, for the avoidance of doubt, let me bring out what you don't know. Below is an excerpt from Vanguard newspaper of 2010.
"The governor said that during the meeting hosted by the Obi of Onitsha, Igwe Nnaemeka Achebe, the stakeholders requested all parties to make sacrifices to reach a compromise, explaining that the state government had fulfilled all requested by the stakeholders.

He said with the new salary for the lecturers, they were now the highest paid workers in the state, with professors earning twice the salary of the deputy governor.

He said, in spite the pressure from the Revenue Mobilization Allocation and Fiscal Commission, no member of the State Executive Council was earning the salary recommended by the commission because of the lean resources of the state.

He also said that till date, states in the South West and South South, including Lagos and Rivers States, with their jumbo revenue, were not implementing the new salary structure"

Peter Obi never joked with the affair of all Anambra's workers and that was why he never owe any worker salary till the day he left office.

Mr. Man, I am lettered than you. This is how you love deflating issue after the lie in your comment might have been punctured.
I ask again, did Peter Obi bought the SUVs for the monarchs when the country was in a state of austerity or boom day?
Thankfully he bought the SUVs and was still able to save for his state. he didn't borrowed to buy the SUVs.

A senator can be crazy as long as his people voted him and haven't objected to status as a senator. A professor on the other hand is suppose to merit it by effort and competence. A misfiring prof is different from a misfiring senator that's still popular in his constituency.

How have those senators Advance the country call Nigeria to be deserving all the huge packages the collect?

advance or not, they can defend their election by crook or other means. Plus their SSCE is backed by law.

Continue doing him. He will soon feel it

Keep quiet.. You can not blackmail anyone.. A thief is in the open accusing another thief of wrong doing after doing the exact things some minutes ago.. Any illiterates like u want us to the thief... You must be out of ur mind.. If he like let him feel it if he likes let him not feel it.. The truth must be said no matter whose ox is gored... The one you did to Tinubu and Buhari did they feel it? But u did it either ways... So allow others to exercise their rights, let it stop paining you.. Right to expression is not an exclusive right of obidients and peter obi

babajero:
Yes, professors can by vehicle from them within a short period of time because it is an indigenous vehicle company and they can pay by instalments and the revenue goes back into Nigeria economy. This is why I say you people comments without sense just because of monthly stipend you are being paid.

Illiterate defending nonsense.. So why didn't ur obi do that.. Everyday he proves to you.. You his ers are senseless... Carry ur mumu analogy commot here.. You rhink u r talking to a anyhow person.. Why didn't the ezes buy it like that. Nonsense and ingredient
