It turns out that being a member of parliament in Zimbabwe is overrated after the main opposition’s deputy president Job Sikhala reveals his pay slips on social media.
Hon Job tweeted that “Today I passed by Parliament to collect my September and October pay slips. In September my salary was 34000 RTGS and for October it was slightly increased to 55000 RTGS. Parliament is overrated. At the exchange rate of today, it means I was paid $170US in Sep and $275US in Oct.”
