It is that small, subsistence agriculture for immediate family that breeds poverty. Is food the only requirement for survival? Will people not progress beyond food for the stomach? Even for d food can one grow everything? Will u not buy others like fish, meat, oil etc? Will they not wear clothes, buy electronics, raise children et al?

The Sultan's reasoning and yours are myopic. Basic agriculture gets one nowhere in the long run, it is the commercial industrialization that makes it viable and rakes in the income. That is where the government must come in and see to it that agriculture becomes viable at the highest possible level. Herdsmen remain backward in their nomadic style and continue causing havoc n mayhem yet we're nowhere near the top exporters of beef n milk. We even import those items!

What an intelligent post!

Nigerians lazy?? Hausa's are hard working, Igbos are even more hard working....Yorubas or Ijaws aren't lazy too... Fulani's?? I don't know about any more hard work than walking long distances just to rare cows....
Nigerians are hard working...we are not just being treated fairly by the ruling class, though that would soon come to an end

I think the problem is that our hard work is NOT intelligently directed and focused. How can someone trek from Sokoto to OSUN state just to rear cattle instead of keeping the cattle in one place and used the energy expended in trekking for other economically gainful engagements? Also it baffles me when I see people rushing to learn how to establish and operate a business from a professor who had not sold anything in his life talk less of owning chains of businesses?

Madam let me educate you
Agriculture is the main source of national income for most developing countries. However, for the developed countries, agriculture contributes a smaller per cent age to their national income. Agricultural sector provides fodder for domestic animals .Cow provides people with milk which is a form of protective food.

You sound so dumb trying to justify the nonsense spewed forth by your sultan.

The problem of Nigeria is not laziness but northerners.

your past leaders failed to provide basic education that emancipates the mind from mental and religious slavery hence most of y'all are still in servitude even with available facts on ground.

same way you guys opposed the agitation for independence way back, so also your backwardness as a result of illiteracy is hindering the nation from making considerable progress.

sultan should take several seats and learn from the emir of kano. now that's an educated bloke y'all should bleeps with cos he seems to know his onions.... not yari and the likes of your stupid ass displaying crass ignorance online

Re: Nigerians Are Hungry Because They Are Lazy – Sultan by Fowobi84: 9:29am On Apr 17, 2017
I know a lot of people that quit farming because fulani herdsmen kept destroying their plants. Besides, they kill and rape innocent women on the farms and Buhari is not addressing the issue. Sultan seem not to know the extent to which his tribesmen are killing innocent farmers all over the country and you expect people to keep risking their lives. What I know is that God is ready to fight for hapless Nigerians under the shackles of oppression very soon.

What these people has failed to acknowledge is that,its no longer about who works hard or not. We need a good business environment to function. Give us basic amenities,security... Soft loans and you'll see changes. As a matter of fact, they can keep their jobs but at least work on that.

I disagree with the sultan.

Nigerians are actually very hardworking. We the go outside the country, they do all sort of dirty jobs just to make ends meet. They are doing this because they are sure their hardwork would be rewarded there. Here in Nigeria, we are have been made to know you can't make it big if you do something illegal.
Nigerians will start working hard when they are sure their hardwork will be rewarded.

case close. this fellow has said it all

No mind the mumus. When it comes to defending this government, their brains suddenly take a leave. When I used to live in a big compound with my parents, I planted all sort of things. Now I live alone in a tarred compound. How do I start planting?
There are people who live in block of flats. How do they start rearing goats or pigs or plant cassava? The Sultan is also admitting that he's also lazy. But guess what, he folds him arm in his palace and money still enters into his account.

Ur uncle has every right to say they r using our monies to buy cars, even if he pays mo tax. So long as ur uncle is a nigerian he should be provided the basics of life like water...electricity...roads...a good vonducive environment for investment.



Xavier9ja:
The sultan is saying the bitter truth. Nigerians keep blaming the government for all their misfortune. I personally have an uncle who is lazy, he does not have any form of formal education, he don't pay tax in any form but he is good at sitting at home listening to radio and blaming the government. He'll always say " they are using OUR money to buy car". I'll just look at him and say "oga u dey pay tax" ( but na inside my mind I dey talk am sha). We should blame the government 20% and use 80% of our time to work hard and be innovative

Because an abokki is power. If not, the hunger would have been blamed on the president, particularly, GEJ.

You know you are 100% here, morning, noon and night even during holidays, please go back and get facts.

This information you have stated here is not too correct no matter the percentage, developed countries and developing countries don't use subsistence agriculture to build GDP.
Re: Nigerians Are Hungry Because They Are Lazy – Sultan by Nobody: 9:58am On Apr 17, 2017
Is this statement really correct? Are 100 percent of Nigerians lazy?

What do these guys know about hardwork, they ve lived in privilege and affluence, they re out of touch with their environment.

They just eat the fruits of other peoples labour, and have no right to cast aspersions or insult the collective intelligence of nigerians.
