He claimed that several other lecturers in many other universities get similar pay.
"It will be a miserable 430-something thousand naira. Fact-check me, this thing I’m talking about, I am not lying, it's there on the internet. Just Google salary of a federal university professor."
"It is not up to 500,000 as we speak. I'm talking about federal universities, read my lips. I'm not talking about a state university, a conventional faith-based university, or a private university."
"University of Port Harcourt, FUTO, UNILAG, all of them are federal universities."
