Doctors & Lawmakers salaries In Nigeria Vs In US, UK, SA & Kenya

My Take on #InsideSources current edition was released yesterday only on @channelstv. Among other points, i noted that in the US, Congressmen and Senators are paid about $174,000, but an average orthopaedic surgeon in  America earns over $568,000 annually. More than their elected representatives.

In the United Kingdom, members of the Parliament are paid £91,000 a year, but a consultant grade doctor takes home more about £131,000 yearly.

In South Africa, members of the Parliament get between 1.2 million rands and 1.7 million rands a year, but consultant grade doctors in that country earn more - at about 2.3 million rands yearly.

In Kenya, surgeons receive annually about 20 million shillings compared to about 8.7 million shillings paid to members of Parliament.


 However in Nigan, orthopaedic surgeon takes an annual salary of 17.5 million on the average-the same thing as a heart surgeon in this country.

But our members of the National Assembly, with their running cost added, which is paid to them directly, and other allowances, they take home over 20 million naira in a month. Compared to surgeons, who in Nigeriaeria take less than N20m in a year!
