      Every month, 109 Senators walk away with ₦2.3 billion.

      That same money could pay the salaries of nearly 5,000 professors.

       

      Average professor’s pay: ₦500,000/month after deductions.

       

      Average senator’s package: ₦21.6 million/month.

      One senator = the pay of 43 professors.

      In the 1960s, professors were among Nigeria’s highest paid public servants.

       

      Today, many can’t even afford to fuel their cars to campus, let alone pay for decent schools for their children.

      Professors in South Africa make about ₦71m/year.

      In Morocco: ₦50m/year.

      In Kenya: ₦2.8m/month.

      In Niger: ₦15.7m/year.

      In Nigeria, barely ₦6m/year.
