The year is coming to an end. So many people died, and God has spared our lives to see this day. Let us not dishonour Him by getting into silly fights that will get us all nowhere.

I want to urge Legsupnigeria and Jethro2 to stop this madness they are trying to engage in before someone gets hurt. None of us is better than those who have left this world in 2014. Let us end the year in peace. Please.

.

Seconded.

Just yesterday I lost a relative that I was chatting with on Christmas day. A young and fit person that was hale & hearty.

Please in the light of this, all this little e-fight pale into insignificance.

Peace guys.

Mogidi:
If he was not active 30yrs ago, he's probably a walking corpse now.

.

Lol.

I actually met him briefly when he was head of state. Most people saying Sai Buhari, Sai Buhari have never met him.

Idiagbon was the action man then. In fact, it was called Buhari-Idiagbon regime.

Mogidi:
GEJ is probably one of the busiest presidents in the world. Where does this man get all this energy? Can Buhari actually withstand the rigours of a presidential position or he just wants a state funeral?

75yr old Buhari go quench within 3 months of this job hence Tinubu is positioning his men.

.

Those Abokis don't stress themselves. Buhari is the type who will be in bed by 10pm like late Yar'Adua.
He was not even that active in his early 40s (30 years ago).

Honestly speaking 9ja needs an energetic whether old like OBJ or young like Fashola, Ribadu, Osho Baba etc.

But most things in 9ja are aberrations. Sadly.

AfricanApple:
seriously both of you are kids. no offense

Nna, in fact kids raised to the power of 1 billion.

You don bleep her, wetin you dey find again? You wan marry her? If so nor be we be her parents to ask for her hand.

So OP, e nor occur to you say you don already turn ATM spitting out dollars, Pounds, Naira & Euro longest time?

You have been such a reliable ATM (no technical issues) such that you refused her once, she went mad. Wow!

Try to convert to hard currency how much you don spend on her.

Na now you wan stop?

Ol' boy when you dey pound the thing dey moan, you nor ask us how hard to hit am o.

He might be a scientist, you can't be excellent in everything.

Many of us had English denting our results back then. That silly "C or B" in English.

The message is clear and the reasons seem plausible.

However, I have no experience with 9ja higher Education.

I know a guy who failed his PhD in a top UK university because he couldn't remember the distance between two carbon bonds during his viva!

Yes, simple things like that are crucial. Otherwise, resources/facilities and supervisors are very good.

Old story,

Nothing goes for nothing.

She's lucky they weren't used for money ritual.

A big warning for those girls looking for flashy things.

Work for your own money. Follow a decent man, he may or may not be rich.

It comes from people not being properly trained in the ethics and conducts of priesthood.

Since ancient times in the West, there are the so-called Three Great Professions: Clergy, Medicine & Law. All three required considerable training/apprenticeship. All were committed to serving humanity.

Medicine & Law still require extensive training, code of conduct/ethical standards, induction and a licence to practice.

Clergy is now all-comers. Anyone who can set up a shack can become a pastor.

So no surprise.

@Emusmith

You cannot compare Ben Carson's case with this.

If Ben Carson referred to an elderly patient with atrial fibrillation or angina, that can easily affect 2.5% (possibly hundreds of thousands or more) of Americans over the age of 70.

Breaching confidentiality is one very easy and silly way for a doctor to get a suspension of licence or even get struck off the Medical Council register.

Please do you know the yoruba name for witch hazel please I need the herbs please

Ok, I get where you're coming from.

Obviously one of the biggest concerns for intending farmers is how do you manage to sell your produce or livestock profitably after all the investment and hardwork.

Recently all over NL and elsewhere, poultry owners were advertising hundreds of broilers n layers for sale. Even a day before Christmas. This is supposed to be the period when chickens are hotcake.


As more people go into farming, produce & livestock all seem to be ready for harvest/sale at about certain times of the year.

Huge supply can easily reduce prices considerably.

Well, a possible way forward is for co-operatives or groups of farmers to pull resources together and begin processing their produce.

That way, excess produce can be mopped up and prices stabilised.

Even in the West, supermarkets/middle men pay peanuts to buy milk from dairy farmers, same with strawberries, oranges,lettuce, etc.

With cassava, it could get worse with time. Processors may decide to plant large number of hectares of cassava themselves.

Many banana companies that were previously just buyers, now produce millions of bananas from their own farms in Central/South America. Orange juice makers too.

jethro2:
I stay in the South West. Oyo state and Ogun State majorly. That's where the concentration of cassava factories are.

I fell victim of those lies and i will do anything possible to prevent others that will listen not to fall for the same stories.

its true, our cooperative group planted 20 hectares in Sepeteri, village in the Saki East LGA with the expectation of making returns after a year.
In the process we made arrangement with some of the companies in Ogun State. The truth is they are privately owned so they have all the aces and cards.
Some of the companies have visited the farm several times and they follow up.
Only to start offering ridiculous price when its harvesting time.
Then you can imagine some one coming to make bogus claims that he made N1,000,000 from 5 acres, claiming to lead someone to the company, saying cassava is profitable.
Yes cassava is profitable of you are the processor but not as a farmer.

I have been reading a lot of misleading thread on cassava which i kept quiet to. I made it a point not to comment because i am not out to spoil any ones business.
But my conscience has not been at peace for allowing others to fall victim while i know the truth.
I intentionally warned people not to quote me if they don't have concrete evidence to back it up. The reason is i want to be allowed to express my opinion in the best way possible without hurting anyone's business
Let the farmers decide and be able to say some one did warned but no:
He quoted me because he felt he is up to the task. He has been making the millions and we need to see how. He needs to bring in evidence and back ups.
Believe me I am willing and ready to see the end of this. That's why i gave the noted warnings.
Enough of the lies

bright007:
you need to go for a brain check-up.

many are mad, few are roaming

.

My dear, if you ask where he comes from, he won't even have enough pride to tell the truth.

Fact is wherever he comes from, his people will never have anything close to the history, culture and civilisation of Benin.

The history and contribution to human civilisation, engineering, arts, governance by his people is not documented in any archives, museums and university departments anywhere in the world.

He's one of those from an inconsequential vassal land. Hating since the beginning of time.

jethro2:
J
Please don't always assume on peoples behalf. Most times assumptions are wrong. You might be suprise at what you think you know
Yes i asked for him to link the cassava group because i knew he was lying. He would have proved me wrong if he had come back with reasonable info.
One can fool most people at a time but not all of the people

Actions speak louder than voice.
All i want is for him to prove the success story behind what he has been quoting.
Like i boldly wrote. If he can I will tender apology all over the post in the agric section of nairaland. My friends and colleagues i will also beg to do the same on my behalf
He would have also earned himself a very good reputation of being genuine. Means more patronage for him.
Hes got nothing to lose from proving his sincerity
Rather i have got lots to lose by accusing someone wrongly on a social forum
NOTE
He started all this. I wrote on my post that don't quote me if you don't have concrete evidence to back it up.
I believe he has the evidence to back it up.
please just watch as we move the ball
Thank you

Thanks for your sincere opinion.

However, I don't think we should be challenging each other, rather we should liaise and synchronise as much as possible.
As I do not have any evidence that the gentleman is just making things up, I think it's fair to give him a positive signal to assist where possible.

I assume (rightly or wrongly) that your business is based in the East, while the gentleman is based in the West.

I don't think I'm totally wrong to believe that market volume might differ in both places. Considering location of Ogun/Oyo being closer to Lagos & its population and available export possibilities.

Peace.

Lesgupnigeria:
First of all,why are you trying to dodge my questions?...you know that by answering those questions,you will expose your yansh.

I even learnt that the clients you manage cassava farmlands for complain bitterly and put pressure on you for failing to deliver after they saw the profit i made from my cassava farm and after the cock and bull story that the cassava market is very bad.

You want me to be chasing after you to give you link of cassava buyers?...i will give it to you in your dreams.

Since then i have linked 2 cassava farming groups to the company. i hope some of them are reading this now to be able to testify to it and you sit there expecting me to come take you to them....you are a joker.

You are not only a joker,you are the joker of the century; i should post evidence of transactions, cash receipt, transport arrangement, tonnes yield per hectare, farm location, planting dates and harvesting date....Laughing in chinese.

I am not here to let you believe any of my posts,or anything i say or write here. (you have once told me that you are a doubting thomas), the best thing to do for doubting thomas is to let her remain a doubting thomas; reason why i decided not to respond to.your message on your new thread.
Let people that believe keep generating result and the doubting thomas keep doubting.

You are very funny o...Are you my secretary or the accountant,or my staff?
The only set of people that can see any documents relating to the transactions are my clients.

Over to you.

@Lesgupnigeria.

Let us put it this.

Maybe the guy is in an area with less demand for cassava or far from processors.
Or he just doesn't have the right links to dispose off large amounts off cassava.

For example, SW (especially Oyo/Ogun axis) might have more processing factories than some other areas.

As as a mark of solidarity among young farmers and agripreneurs, you may want to connect him, even if at a little commision.

Because more positive news from lots of agribiz people will encourage more.

We now have a generation of 20 to 50 years old who have seen that petroleum has been of little help to us, and we're going back to what our grandgathers did so well, only with bettter knowledge, education and technology behind us.

The only way is up.

tranxo:

I wonder why you are surprised with the way people are reacting to this post. You are in a better position advising people to marry early 'cos YOU have the experience, thus an authority in early marriage.

Seeking childcare tips from a monk? Don't get it twisted, Merry Christmas.

Nna, you never see anything. Nor be Naija we dey talk about, na today?

You go bow say some monks fit have more secret children than Baba Onikeke with three wives at home.

sureboss:
U have a valid point. Some single females are just liabilities. They dont see marriage responsibility as joint one, they see marriage as a means of getting out of poverty. A friend of mine is dating an unemployed 29year old girl and d girl is insisting on wedding before 30years can u imagine

.

That na potential gobe. Original gobe!

They are fine.

Lesgupnigeria:
To get a brewery waste is not a problem.
Piggery farmers also always go to breweries to order for waste. It is not a big deal.

Making it pellets makes it last longer and easier to feed animal.
NAFDAC requirement is not stringent compare to the one for human consumption.

.

Thanks

Lesgupnigeria:
Yes,it can be pelleted and sold to pig farmers.
The integrated brewery waste pelleting factory consist of many machineries connected together to produce pelleted waste.

Pelleting mills make use of drying ,crumbling,cooling and pelleting machineries.

About 2.5M will be able to start a small scale pelleting mill.

.

Ok thanks.

Now it would obviously make sense to locate the mill near a brewery. What is the ease of getting the brewery waste as raw material? You know almost everything in 9ja is by connection and long-leg.

And what's the regulation regarding animal feeds, like animal equivalent of NAFDAC?

That brewery waste pelleting machine, how much is it going for?

I suppose you can use it to pellet and sell to people like pig farmers.

abhosts:
So he became a father at age 15?

.

15 year old dads. Brilliant.

In a place where ISIS and Boko Haram are on recruitment drive, I wonder if we need more of those.

For every teenage parent that makes it in football, Nollywood, music or any showbiz, there are possibly 49 hawking guguru, fighting in motor parks, eking out a living as a thug, ritual killer, armed robber, prostitute, etc.

Because somebody will soon mention Genevieve, Shan George, etc.

I think the OP lady has since moved on.

But for the benefit of others.

Sometimes men are not looking for a lady that has planned how to get her PhD and others in a very strict order. Most men like ambitious women but not a woman who's consumed by those ambitions.

It can really ruin the fun of being with such a girl.

Know the kind of guy you're with. Most guys are simple beings.

The guy may never meet a girl like you and there are many possible reasons for that.

One is maybe he will just avoid girls like you in the future.

Maybe with all your good qualities, there are just too many other reasons for him to look elsewhere.
He could have chosen to keep you as a spare/insurance girlfriend but he didn't.

Pray for a guy looking for a girl just like you to come your way.
Good luck.

Please show more pics of interior, seats, steering, gear, etc.

I guess this car has been painted before.

And the engine washed?

Merry x mas and a happy new year in advance.

Question: Do you bleep her everytime she visits? If yes, you must be a selfish bleeper.

.

Is she a prostitute or a girlfriend?

I don't think the money is the issue. Rather the sense of entitlement some babes have.

It can be very annoying.

Funny thing is that same girl might be dating another guy that she gives pocket money. Especially some of those away at school.

nice thread

OP

Sorry o.

The turkey thighs we put in the oven burn a little bit but not like yours.

I for say come follow us chop but I guess distance is too far.

Should clerics of any religion or denomination be overtly endorsing any political party or candidate.

If clerics can't maintain neutrality, then they should be made to pay taxes.

At least they can then endorse a party that will charge them lower taxes for example.

If catering for spiritual needs of people is now only a secondary role, money making and politics are now their major calling, they should be treated like business ventures and pay tax.

majekdom2:
does having kids early in life guarantee the success of one's kids . I know people who had kids early but the kids and parents are still struggling to make ends meet.

.

No it doesn't. Nor does marrying with grey hair guarantee kids' success.

If you marry at 24, say after NYSC and you're a young army/police officer or young banker or civil servant, you have the potential to grow in your career and be economically comfortable. Same if you're in private business.

If you married a compatible wife/hubby and you both have a common goal and you have the right foundation, there are good chances your kids will succeed.

There are no guarantees. Even some kids of billionaires fritter away their inheritance and succumb to drug abuse.

So na by Grace of God o.

bynat:
Marriage is not the end of the world, its an aspect of life

.

Maybe, but for millennia, marriage has been the single most important human institution.

Failure of marriages has a direct correlation with societal problems.

Go to any large prison and interview inmates about their family background.

You will see the large number of them from failed and dysfunctional homes/marriages.

I have done a mini-project on hardened criminals with mental health issues. And other works by several researchers.

Quite revealing.
