Niger state is too big but sometimes I wonder if they have a governor or what are their elected leaders doing about the issue of bad roads?

you can drive for more than 8 hours non-stop on a completly bad and dilapilated roads, coupled empty large landmass/desert, that incase of emergency (kidnap or banditry attack), the'll be no escape route.

The goverment of Niger state and that of the other north west states especially Kebbi, should do something about the issue of bad roads.

First off no LGA called Kuvun in Niger state
Most likely it is Lavun LGA you went to.
You took a lot of risk traveling to Niger state. The Bida axis you took is one of the safest though.
Parts of Gurara is not safe.
But please if anybody tells you he intends to take to Kontagora, Mariga, Magama, Mashegu,Rijau, Rafi, Shiroro, Munya axis. My brother na death trap be that.

You are very correct I went to kontagora last week without knowing that it a kidnapper zone. Luckily I came back unharmed

Long time NL family, its been a moment.

On the 4th of August, I received a call from someone that she needed a trailer of rice, that her suppliers where expensive for her and she wasn't making profit, before the close of the day I received request for two trailers

With all paying before the close of the day.

The quest for cheaper rice began......I called Gombe, Maiduguri, Kano,Sokoto & Benue, either the quality was poor, or they where expensive till someone mentioned Niger state, specifically Kunwa LGA (forgive the spelling), that's is in Zone B.

The hunt for rice began.

I made plans, to move from Abuja to Niger since I had earlier arrived Abuja for a meeting with someone the trip was agreed for 5th of August (the next day) by 7am.

By 7am the next day, armed with more than .... naira in cash, we began the journey.

The person that was supposed to take me was disappointingly late. Like WTF bro we agreed 7am, and I had called you by 6am to start coming bros.

When he finally arrived I asked what's the duration of the trip, that's was when we where told 6hrs, I was like wtf 😂 🤣 I taught it was a 1hr trip, get in and get out kind of stuff. Mehn! I had to restrategize.......Quickly getting food and water......as the guy arrived 44m late.

I was disappointed 😞 I hate lateness.

(First pictures shows my anger)

When we started the trip we had the option of a hilux or a corolla car. I choose the corolla (wanted to blend in- am going to an unfamiliar terrrin).

We stopped to fuel the car and I spent 42k to fill a corolla I normally fill with 12k before (last year oo).

Infact I snapped the fuel meter to show someone (picture 2).

Farming Contractors like the op are Silent Millionaires....

There's high risks but good money in Agricultural contractions

Well done op .. Stay Safe too

There's a lot of money in being a farmer as well. We just can't do it the old ways with hoe and cutlass anymore.
Agriculture will bring more money than oil, it doesn't finish or get out of fashion.

From Gurara LGA, we moved to a place called Pikorro (forgive the spelling), towards Minna, I was so hungry by now.....the person with me wasn't bordered at all. The food I had with me for no reason I forgot it.

In Pikorro we couldn't get what we where looking for we moved to Minna (I had made some contacts prior to today in Minna),........Disappointingly they where all in Abuja.

One thing you need to note is that once you are travelling and you have an opportunity to eat, please do...


In Minna we ate something (very hot food)...... then I was offered security (I rejected it)..... no be una wan drag attention to.

It is Paikoro

Great topic.

What I have seen here and learnt also from experiences like yours is that there are a thousand and one opportunities for business minded Nigerians across the country.

It is also a fact that the infrastructure is seriously lacking such as efficient communication services, good, accessible roads, logistics issues, proper storage systems, lack of technical know-how, insecurity, safe accommodation during transit and proper awareness on both sides of producers and consumers in growing wealth.

If we had the basic infrastructure and security in place, nobody would be idle in this country because the opportunities abound everywhere in Nigeria.

It's just calls for the political will and men of foresight to explore and tap from Nigeria's potentials and riches.

It's unfortunate that ours is a sad story 😞
The kind of wealth making potential that lies with agriculture alone in this country ehn? But no political will. Our elected officials are something else. They are just comfortable sharing money they didn't work for. Imagine prices of grains soaring high in Nigeria because one country thousands of miles away blocked another country's route
