So today, it was Saturday, and I decided to go to my dry season okra farm in Mayo balwa LGA of adamawa State.


It's a 68km journey from my house in yola to the farm at Mayo balwa LGA.

On my arrival, I had already met the locals working on the farm .

It's was a delightful experience.



It's not easy, but man must survive.



Tinubu policies aren't encouraging at all.
Gas price is killing us, but how we go do ??

Thank God, I brought this 900w solar pump to meet up the water demand.


My rice is making me feel like I am in Thailand, in fact, in the middle of Bangkok.

After almost an hour in this yola extra ultra sun ... I decided to take nunu and kinderemo

Pay this security man 30k monthly to guard the farm from fulani herders.

Does stubborn futon jalon type .. with their dread and dagger .

If you like keep DSS dey go still invade your farm.


But I have a secret, which is I gave them free water for their cattle. After drinking, I beg them to move ahead without touching the farm, I also buy "nunu and dekere" cowsmilk and pudding.

Fulani women fine sha ... grin

My farm manager, this one like money pass the richest man in babylon.


Gathering of the okra ...
Note the okra will produce for 3months that is once every week we go for picking.
This is the first week , so the volume is small.



We got 9 bags and each bag cost 8k(farm price) but if we take it back to yola market each bag will go for 10k/12k

Seriously we need Government interventions in irrigation farming .

Thing are to hard, Brought this two bags of fertiliser for 80k

Urea = 45k
NPK = 35k

There is vast land but No capital to farm, so I cut my coat according to my size.

Maybe will get more strength for expansion next year .

If half of the useless cultists, yahoo boys and drug addicts we have as youths venture into farming, Nigeria will never have to complain about increase in the cost of food products...

All the useless cultists, yahoo boys and thieves, make una come see werin una mates dey use hand do...
Make devil punish all of una with una families...

For every soul u have oppressed or stolen from with your cultism, fraud and thievery, may woe continue to betide you and your family up to your 2000th generation....

Op, good job... I go like retire with plantain farm someday......

My love for plantain and goats no be here.....
