SOWORE SPARKS DEBATE — “Pay Policemen ₦500K Monthly, Not Let Senators Keep Pocketing ₦30M

SOWORE SPARKS DEBATE — “Pay Policemen ₦500K Monthly, Not Let Senators Keep Pocketing ₦30M!”

Activist and politician Omoyele Sowore has thrown a serious challenge to Nigeria’s political elite!

In a bold statement, Sowore argues that Nigerian police officers should be earning at least ₦500,000 a month. He emphasizes that it’s downright insulting for those who safeguard the lives of over 200 million citizens to make so little, while Senators rake in over ₦30 million each month just for sitting in their comfortable offices!

“It’s a total injustice that our frontline security personnel are paid so poorly, while those who contribute minimally to the nation’s progress enjoy lavish wealth. We need to turn this madness around,” he declared. Nigerians online are now questioning:

Why does a senator make more in a month than a police officer does in five years? How can we expect discipline, loyalty, and accountability from those in uniform when they’re so underpaid?

When will the true servants of the people receive the respect they deserve? Sowore’s remarks are already creating a stir and motivating people to call for urgent salary reforms in the public sector.
