Divided by 12 and percentile ranked over n=7: p25 N21.83M, median N23.83M, p75 N35.5M monthly. Figures are audited disclosures, but the sample is the chief executives of the largest listed banks only, so this row overstates a typical executive general manager; mid sized company executives earn far less. Fiscal 2025 figures, current naira, no devaluation distortion.
