Divide your SALARY by 30 days and see what
you get (i.e.
the number of days in a month and see the
funny thing
about your salary plan).
For example,
(1) An average level-8 worker in the state
government civil
service earns NGN 60,000.
**** And this translates to NGN 60,000÷30= NGN
2,000
every day. This is LESS THAN the amount made
daily by an
AVERAGE HAWKER in the city.
(2) A freshly EMPLOYED GRADUATE BANKER in
most
NIGERIAN BANKS earns an average of
NGN120,000 monthly.
***So everyday, you get NGN120,000÷30=
NGN4,000 as the
daily value for your work-life. By implication, this
is LESS
THAN the amount earned DAILY by an AVERAGE
DRIVER in d
city and in some villages.....
(3) If you are a FRESH GRADUATE EMPLOYEE in
some oil in
companies, you earn an average of NGN300,000
monthly. So
in a day your WORK-VALUE is NGN300,000 ÷ 30=
NGN10,000
**** This is LESS THAN the daily amount earned
by an
IRRIGATION FARMER supplying vegetables to
Lagos
MARKETS, a TIPPER CAR DRIVER supplying
sand for three
BLOCK INDUSTRIES and CONSTRUCTION SITES
just 3 times a
day and DRIVERS of DANGOTE TRUCKS who
have bought off
the trucks at scrap value and are using them to
convey
products between villages and the cities for just
five
business owners.
--------->>>HOPE BY NOW, IT IS SINKING IN,
RIGHT?
And when there is an ISSUE in the FAMILY that
requires
FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, the DRIVERS,
HAWKERS and the rest
are looking up to you with a WHITE COLLAR
JOB.
(4) If you are an NYSC MEMBER, you DON'T
need to be told
that:
*****NGN19,800÷30 = NGN 660 is your worth on
a daily
basis.
I hope you know that PURE WATER SELLERS
who own a shop,
a pepper soup joint and a small TOYOTA
COROLLA car to
distribute pure water to five restaurants earn
MORE THAN
you & WHEEL-BARROW PUSHERS working on
contract for
three warehouses probably make MORE MONEY
than you
EACH DAY
............
Wake up and be more productive. We should be
more
proactive, create room for more income and
strive to
diversify our streams of income.
The earlier you wake up and smell the coffee,
the better for
you......
Someone right now will say this analysis is too
ideal to be
true but take your time and do it, you will grasp
the crux!!!
STOP waiting for the Government to feed you,
feed yourself
and help the Government feed others. That is
where we are
in this age.
