Holland Earns More From Agriculture Than Nigeria Earns From Crude Oil by Impactever(m): 10:28am On Jun 04, 2019 |
Let us all chew these economic realities: By DR OBINNA ALIGWEKWE ....( A UK BASED NIGERIAN MEDICAL DOCTOR) 1. Holland, a small nation at 42,000 square kilometers, is smaller than Yobe state, the sixth largest state in Nigeria. At 17 million people, her population is dwarfed by that of Nigeria. ------ Yet Holland earned more from AGRICULTURE, than Nigeria earned from selling crude oil. ------------------------------------------------------------------ 2. Singapore, a tiny nation of 722 square kilometers, is about the size of Alimosho and Ikorodu local governments. At a national population of 5.5 million people, all its inhabitants cannot even form a bloc vote to elect a Nigerian president. --------- Yet, Singapore generated more electricity than the whole Nigerian nation, an average of 10,000Megawatts. Singapore's major port generated much more revenue than our federal government is budgeting for all expenses, including the padded version. ------------------------------------------------------------------ 3. South Korea has no oil. At a crude oil production rate of zero barrels per day, she is dwarfed by Nigeria's output of 2.2 million barrels per day. ------- Yet, South Korea refines almost 2.5 million barrels per day, while Nigeria imports petrol. ---------------------------------------------------------------- There is more where that came from. Iraq and electricity? South Africa and infrastructure? Ethiopia and transport? Ghana and aviation? Benin Republic and maritime? "There is a reason why when it is time to comment about Nigeria and socio-political issues, I hang my jocular mien and come out guns blazing" "Nigeria may spend several generations playing catch-up, and that is even assuming we start getting it right at this moment, which I am afraid we haven't."

Cacawa2: Precision/smart agriculture is implemented to the fullest. On the back of innovation from agric tech centers like wageningen efforts are focused on maximizing productivity from as little an area as possible. Vertical farming for crops, monitoring and recording of vital indicators in plants and animals to prevent diseases and other drawbacks to harvest. They do everything across the board aided by science. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUmP8Tli-Mc watch this visualpolitik take on their achievement. Remember 92 billion usd in total lol. That's like selling 3 million bbls a day at favorable prices . Insane 2 Likes 1 Share |

Nigerians are perfect in destruction. That is what they are good at. They like destroying whatever they can't afford so that it won't be useful to another person. How can they progress ? Check around, many Nigerians have that destructive instinct.. 1 Like |
