I like spending time in Florida with my wife. Why?
because the place is clean, sunny with beautiful houses and streets. The street in the photo below is my favorite residence in Florida. I keep wondering why do our people live in dirt. Then I realized it. It is not just physical poverty but mental poverty.

In the Florida streets there are trees. Then I think why can't we plant palm trees all over the place in Nigeria and flood the world market with coconut oil and juice? They want it, so we give it to them.

Take Edo state state alone. If I was the Governor I will get each house in Edo State to plant 2 coconut trees in front of the house on a straight line or face a fine. Each coconut tree will produce 200 coconut per year. Even with 500,000 houses; see what will happen:

500,000 x 2 coconut trees = 1,000,000 coconut trees
200 coconut per tree per year = 200,000,000
Even at N50 per coconut = N10,000,000,000
That is 10 billion Naira. That is just for the homes. I will do the same for all government roads and double that number.

I would buy it from the people and bring it to a very large factory to make coconut oil, paste and other things to double this revenue yet again. When we are done we will have over N40 billion per year. This will create lots of jobs.

All that money will be used to fix all the roads every year one by one till all roads look like the one in Florida. This will create more jobs again. All paying for itself. Imagine a state with access to N40 billion just to fix roads yearly.

It is not hard to do.

You can make the following using Coconuts:

* Desiccated coconut.
• Coconut Butter, Coconut Cream, Coconut flour.
• Coconut Milk, Milk powder, Coconut Yogurt.
• Virgin Coconut Oil.
• Coconut vinegar.
• Coconut Coir, Coconut pith.
• Coconut wood.
• Coconut Oil.
• Tender Coconut water.
• Coconut Sugar, Coconut Syrup.

P.S
What is this thing with Nigeria and open gutters?

Thank God we still have people that think in this country. I've always wondered why Nigerian cities don't like planting trees. Apart from the fact that it adds to the beauty, it also serves as some kind of shade to the hot sun we experience here. Those coconut like trees that i see in Miami wil make a lot of sense.

there is a place in Mushin called Palm Avenue. In the 80s and early 90s. it was such a beauty to behold. It was lined with coconut trees all through. it stretched from Olorunsogo which is off Agege Motor road to Ladipo roundabout. I had my primary school around the area. when I visited palm avenue last year. I was shocked to the marrow. All the trees had been uprooted from the home front. They had been replaced by shops let out to building materials seller. Nigerians generally have issues in their mind not the leaders or the environment. it goes beyond just making people plant coconut trees. he will be shocked when militants come to demand money for planting trees and how the coconut oil of the state has been used to enrich other regions but the state. with Nigerians deal with mind first before building infrastructure.

Nice idea

Bros, that place was a beauty to behold in those years. Right unto Isolo road and some part of Layi Oyekanmi street. Then it was so silent and serene just like GRA. But now it looked like bombs exploded there.
