Nigeria's minimum wage- N30,000 ($78), whereas;
Salary for a Single senator per MONTH - approximately N30,000,000 ($78,000)
More than 60% of Nigerians earn less than N40k per month while the price of food increases yearly. Right now a single bag of rice is N35,000 while an average person probably earns much less.

You just HAVE to had gotten it illegally. It's like continuously pushing someone and wondering why they still get back up
