Monthly pay for roles in Nigeria, by function, level and state. Every figure says how it reached us, because a checked payslip and a number typed into a form are not the same claim.

What the labels mean

From real payments

Averaged from salary payments that actually landed in Kampe members' accounts. Opt-in, aggregated, and never shown for a group small enough to point at one person.

Verified

Submitted by a professional and checked against a payslip, offer letter or work email before publishing. The evidence is never published or kept.

Company-reported

Given to us by the company, or published by the company outside a job post.

Company job page

Taken from the company's own careers page. We name a company beside pay only when the company published that pay itself.

Public report

Taken from a published compensation or industry report, converted into one comparable monthly figure.

Public article

Taken from a published article or newsletter. Only the pay detail is kept; the surrounding context is dropped.

Self-reported

An anonymous submission. Cleaned, classified and sanity-checked, but not individually verified.

Kampe publishes the numbers, not the people. A company is named beside pay only when the company published that pay itself. A figure drawn from members' own accounts is only ever shown as an average of at least 5 people, because an average of two is one subtraction away from being one person's salary.
