Respectfully Tinubu’s official monthly salary is about ₦1,171,568 to ₦1,500,000, depending on which government source you use. This is public information, not hidden, and it comes directly from Nigeria’s Revenue Mobilization Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC).
(Always confirm political salary information with trusted official sources.)
Confirmed figures from credible sources
₦1,171,568.20 monthly — RMAFC official data (2026)
₦1,171,568 monthly — RMAFC chairman confirming salaries have not increased since 2007
₦1,405,882 monthly basic salary — Leadership News report, excluding allowances
₦1,500,000 monthly — RMAFC chairman’s statement during salary review discussions (2025)
So what is the correct number?
All sources agree the President of Nigeria earns less than ₦1.5 million monthly in basic salary.
The most consistent and official figure is:
₦1,171,568 per month (basic salary)
Allowances (hardship, constituency, utilities, accommodation, etc.) can raise total compensation significantly, but the base salary paid from Nigerian tax revenue is around ₦1.17 million monthly.
Important context
Tinubu publicly announced he donated all his salaries since taking office to a welfare fund for wounded soldiers and families of fallen military personnel.
This donation applies to his basic salary, not necessarily all allowances.
Daniel Bwala’s monthly salary from Nigerian tax money is not publicly disclosed. No credible source provides his exact pay.
What we can confirm
Daniel Bwala is the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Policy Communications.
This is a political appointment, and Nigeria does not publish individual salaries for presidential advisers.
What is not available
No official document listing his monthly salary
No verified leak or credible investigative report
No government payroll disclosure naming him with figures
What is known generally (inference, not a confirmed figure)
Special Advisers in Nigeria typically fall under Presidential Aide categories, which historically receive:
A basic salary,
Allowances (housing, transport, duty tour, estacode),
Other benefits.
But the exact amount varies by administration, and no 2026 data for Bwala is published.
So, any specific number circulating online is speculation, not fact respectfully
Bottom line
There is no verified public record of
