Re: USA Africa Dialogue Series - Nigerian professors among best paid in the world

The salary of profs in Nigeria like anywhere else is a spectrum that cuts across different disciplines, specialties and different levels of experience. This figure is an average. Obviously some make more and some make less. It is probably not far off. In the states there are profs who make around 50k/annum and yet others make much more up to 300K/annum.

I have not stopped wandering since I read the report yesterday.$4, 629 per month is at least $1, 300 higher than the real figure. I don't know why we need this comparison anyway. Well, thanks, prof, for your intervention. Shalom.

Those who engage in discussions on this forum shouldd at least be among the informed and not ordinary market women and men. They should take time to be informed by themselves before coming to the public domain to volunteer any opinion.  As a Professor in Nigeria and who is knowledgible about the stuggle to improve the academic system in the country, i can say withou any equivocation that no Nigerian Professor earns the amount being touted . --- On Tue, 2/5/13, Ikhide <xokigbo@yahoo.com> wrote: From: Ikhide <xokigbo@yahoo.com> Subject: USA Africa Dialogue Series - Nigerian professors among best paid in the world To: "Toyin Falola" <USAAfricaDialogue@googlegroups.com>, "Ederi" <Ederi@yahoogroups.com> Date: Tuesday, February 5, 2013, 10:49 AM  "A Nigerian full professor, which according to the report, earns an equivalent of $4, 629 per month in public institutions, is rated the 13th best paid don among the 28 nations." http://www.punchng.com/education/nigerian-professors-among-best-paid-in-the-world/   JAMB question!
