Nigeria had a simple choice to make last election but they repeated the wrong choice.

Of course. You think Emefiele's detention by a Yoruba man, Tinubu is unjustified?

Some people were rejoicing when Emefiele was dishing out his disastrous policies thinking it is in their favour. Thank God for Tinubu. May Almighty God continue to increase him in wisdom.
That Emefiele is a criminal.

Am happy that those who do not have the sympathy for Nigerians lost at the Presidential election. Only Tinubu the man with empathy won.

Don't you worry... Soon, y'all will run out of people and things to blame.

You think you can give excuses for 4 years?!!

Nigerians had enough of that for 8 years from Buhari... No one is interested in excuses any more! No one.

Hmm. I no go talk wetin dey mind!

Na una sell Chicken last Xmas 15k, took advantage of the country, 1 crate of egg N3,500, una go still sell chicks ooo. Over gain dey worry una


Great response bro. Substantial farming is way out to reduce cost. Our people too like extortion, even local chicken wey no dey chow FEED cost past one wey dey take FEEDS, we ourselves enemies, joined with Government,
Many want the FREE CASH, those asking for 200k minimum wages, the INFLATION wey go kill people ehn, e dey do press up.
Na everyone be salary earner ? Ba from market dem go wait that ur new MINIMUM WAGES.
if you know the kin loss people incur from poultry. That business no be for faint hearted. Too many factors have to go right for you to profit. If not na confirm loss. That's why we dey import frozen chicken now

Yes, we do.
Only few farms have the capacity for round the year farming. Livestock are fed dry grains, so we have the Commodity Bank that you can buy from at off season at subsidized rate to cushion the effect of scarcity.
There is nothing to shake head for over such, except you want to send small holder farmers packing

God help us in this country


APC will continue their destructive rule until Nigeria rise against them...

Despite all the money Trump has and his age, he bowed before the people of America to debate and tell them his plan for the country.. How much does Tinubu have, billionaire in dead naira claiming the media wants to use him for business..
What we are experiencing today is shame such that, despite our population, we don't have the driving sill to steer our nation on the part of progress despite our blessing..

What is the vision of Tinubu and where does he project Nigeria to be in next couple of years in the league of nation..

Coach Buhari removed us from middle table to relegation zone and now, Tinubu wants to ends it all..

People who gather to vote Tinubu reject a sitting governor only for the governor to be employed to rule over them by the president.. You can't try that in the civilized world...

Are you sure I read this correctly?

South West zone lamenting when we're still in Genesis 🙄🙄

How come the South West are feeling the negative impact of this Balablue regime more than other regions?

Mandate and favor my family people are reaping the fruits of their wickedness in full.

You are unintelligent as usual, for making that comment. You ingrates. Is this how you will reward Yoruba people that voted massively for Obi? Àbí is it only Yoruba votes that count in the whole of the country? You people are sick.

If you’re doing small scale you can hold up, doc price has been low since 2months, if it goes up at this current situation of things, kassala go burst

Frankly speaking, I feel the government should simply lift the ban on the importation of frozen raw chicken. A ton can go as low as 400/kg of bought in tons from France. If a 20% import duty is placed on it, I am sure by the time it meets the consumers, the price will be no more tha N1,500/kg compared to the 2,400/kg presently.

That is one palliative measure Nigerians would definitely welcome

Yes, you are right, bought birds twice within the past 2months.

I dey wonder how those wey get thousands dey cope.
Which state is that 3kg for 3k, that's too ridiculous.
I sold 1.2kg avrg for 2300. I'm in Lagos
Someone even pleaded for 2200, I no sell give her.
Cost of feed no dey friendly.
Although, I do process the chicken to sell as frozen too.

How much in euro is a kg of chicken in France?
Btw, I doubt chicken can be at that price if imported, fish is imported and it's not cheaper, it's about 1800/2400. Beef is local but about 3000/kg

They cope by making fast sales or freeze up some which is biting hard now due to fuel price

300 is not too small scale na, I’ve been doing 250 birds waiting for the right moment to fill up the farm but inflation no gree, if things were biting hard like this when I started I could have folded up long time ago but experience still Dey push me sha
250 5weeks birds is already eating 20-24k feed per day and you said you can wait till festive period, well that could depend on their age sha

I tire, judging by just physical it looks so interesting but they’ll never understand the pain and effort

The only reason I’m still gaining is simply just experience, nothing else, high reduction cost and risks
Just maybe one day I’ll crash or it goes otherwise


The only thing that pains me is the stupid people sitting at the top and stupid rules
