Amadioha, ogun, sango and all our fore father Gods will shave all d head of GEJ nairaland critics from kobojunkie to the rest, if they one day dey swallow their shame and praise GEJ. |

I have no quarrel with Nigeria exporting Cassava of any quantity to China. But the question is: why are we not adding value to the cassava, and rather export the finished good. The solution to this problem is a big opportunity! |

Who told you d finished product is not being or planned to be exported! Dangote to flourmills flour are supposed to be made of 10-50% made of cassava! And am sure you know they are exported to neighboring countries |

This is so true. Cassava makes very good quality ethanol. You would know that every single car in Brazil runs on a mixture of ethanol and petrol as a way of crashing the fuel price. If GEJ takes that up, he would be unto a real winner. In the meantime, big ups to cassava! |

Let start from somewhere first, after the first few years of exportation of the raw material we will begin to think of the next step ie finished product which we equality need to try out on the home front before we can think of exporting same 1 Like |

Beaf: Yes my brother. Big up to cassava, the life saver. Hopefully, GEJ's administration will take up cassava to ethanol program, but somehow I hope they wouldn't (at least not anytime soon), I can't bear to see the price of garri shooting up to the skies, when every tuber available is channel to the more financially rewarding ethanol program. In anycase, cassava is the future, if and when our less endowed 'compatriots' finally achieve their agenda to deplete the dwindling oil reserve south of the Niger River! |

billante: Agic. Minister Adesina has revealed that plans are under way to export one-million-tonne cassava chips, valued at $136m, to China in July... So in your esteemed opinion it is fair and proper for GEJ to take undue credit for one of the few redeeming qualities of Kwara state's foray into large scale agriculture? Where do we get these imbe#cilic Nairalanders from Footnote: Your tomfoolery notwithstanding, I remain a strong advocate of our nascent cassava revolution Kwara to export cassava chipsSource |
Re: Nigeria To Export 1million Tons Of Cassava To China July by Beaf: 8:13pm On Jun 28, 2012 |
^ Some people and their foolishness. I'm sure Kwara state is on the Moon, and no longer in Nigeria. To the toddlers, 6000 tonnes is the same as 1 million tonnes (for the addled, 1 million tonnes is 1,000,000 tonnes - do the math). |
Re: Nigeria To Export 1million Tons Of Cassava To China July by billante(m): 8:26pm On Jun 28, 2012 |
Beaf: ^ Don't mind d buffon! If its a negative thing now they will say GEJ should take d blame!! 6000 don turn to 1 million for his eye! |
Re: Nigeria To Export 1million Tons Of Cassava To China July by Beaf: 8:41pm On Jun 28, 2012 |
billante: Don't mind the thin legged clown. If he had done the math, he would have realised the 1,000,000 is approximately 167 times greater than 6000. A little more easy math would have told him that since 167 is several times greater than 36 (the number of states in Nigeria), that Kwara's 6000 is one of the smallest figures from any cassava producing state. |

GEJ, When you need spinmeisters to do damage control after another episodic faux pas, make sure you employ corporate-monkeys that can read! I say this because, in a clear attempt to shift the focus away from your give-a-seed agricultural revolution, it is clear the eejits on this thread have decided to dress the emperor (you) in ill-fitting robes A statement made available on Sunday by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Mr. Abdulwahab Oba, quoted Popilko as saying the state had more than a million tonne per day of cassava required by China ready to be explored |
Re: Nigeria To Export 1million Tons Of Cassava To China July by billante(m): 9:22pm On Jun 28, 2012 |
eGuerrilla: GEJ, They have 1million tons and they no wan export?? when there is excess demand for casava chips at china! But how can they have 1million tons and want export only 0.6% of it? |
