Jonathan should go and rest. He is always trying to front as a hyper nationalist with ultra patriotic intentions. It was his bid to buttress that hollow resume that led him to accommodate all sorts of anti democratic steps just to make buhari president. Look at what we have now. He thought he was building a democracy so he handed over to an intellectually challenged man who nearly destroyed the country's democracy. Where was he all these while? buhari is lying fallow in a chilly London hospital and he is now all over the place trying to effect the next development. Jonathan messed up a lot of lives with his uncanny political naivety and should just go and sit down somewhere..

The people voted in their choice and Jonathan respected the wish of the people. Do not cry that Jonathan respected your wish.

You guys were hoping that Jonathan will cling to power so you can form a parallel Govt. Jonathan smartly gave up the seat to your demigod, let'sall enjoy the change together.

Next time don't vote in someone who is obviously not qualified to be a secondary school teacher as president.

Nice thread. I am thinking of Agric products marketing

Nice knowledge sharing

Disused plastics, iron, scraps of aluminium and steel are not worthless. In 2011, aluminium ingots and alloys worth $137 million were exported to mainly Japan, India and Ghana.

A kilogramme (kg) of aluminium sells for between N130 and N150, copper N700, and steel N20. There is a huge potential for this business going by Nigeria’s per capita consumption for steel and aluminium. The annual per capita consumption of steel and aluminium in the country is about 10kg and 0.3kg, respectively.

Nigeria’s consumption of aluminium is on the increase. GZI, an aluminium can manufacturer that started business in 2010, has doubled its capacity from 1.2 billion cans a year in two years. Africa’s largest aluminium can factory in Aba, financed by Fidelity Bank, will produce 1.2 billion cans a year; SABMiller’s brewery in Onitsha is an immediate beneficiary.

Across metropolitan Lagos and other towns and cities around the country, you find centres where scraps are sold to collectors who in turn sell them to recycling companies. Organic waste generated in markets and farms can be recycled into fertiliser or used to generate power.

Lagos State, with recycling banks and management of solid waste, is a model for other states. With a population of close to 18 million people, waste management is a top priority for the Lagos State government. Lagos produces 9,000 tonnes of waste, most of which is nylon and plastics.

Ethylene, the most widely used petrochemical, is the basic raw material for industrial and consumer products. Dangote Agrosacks exported $396,750 worth of polypropylene recycled pellets to the US in 2011. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) are the most valuable and recyclable of all plastic materials. An ecosystem – reclaimers, processors and manufacturers – can harness the wealth in waste.

Technology for recycling and processing biodegradable waste is becoming widespread. The initial outlay may be expensive but processors and manufacturers can cluster to share services, say, power generation. For instance, Jenbacher gas engines run on natural gas, biogas, landfill gas, coal mine gas, sewage gas, and more. The Minhe animal husbandry facility, China’s largest chicken farm, runs a Jenbacher biogas plant with waste generated on the farm.

Recycling of scrap aluminium salvaged from abandoned or disused airplanes is big business. Aayu Steel Mills, a company dismantling over 60 disused aircraft in the nation’s airports, may realise over N480 million.

Similar opportunities exist for second-hand cars. Nigeria’s income per person, $1,600, means that most Nigerians opt for used cars. According to Coscharis Motors, new cars sold annually in Nigeria are less than 70,000 units and the number of used cars sold is about 350,000. Used tyres, too, have immense value.

SoleRebels, a fast growing, innovative Ethiopian shoe brand, “made two million dollars in sales in 2011 and is expecting to generate over $15 to $20 million in revenue by 2015”, according to Inter Press Service.

Bethlehem Tilahaun Alemu founded soleRebels in 2005. Her handcrafted shoes are made from 100 percent local input: recycled car tyres. Alemu says the company has been able to “riff, recreate, and re-imagine the traditional ‘selate’ and ‘barabasso’ shoes”. Scraps of all types have huge value and should not be ignored or thrown away; it’s like burying money.

Can you guide my workers on tomato production.

What will it cost per month for consultancy

Nigeria earned 55 billion dollars that year and Sanusi was screaming that 50 billion dollars was missing that same year.

So Sanusi meant that the Govt only used 5 billion to execute the budget for the whole of that year.

People like Sanusi deserve to be shot for deceiving the people into believing that Jonathan was stealing their money just so that people can vote in the dullardino

Someone promised to pay you 100% interest on your money in one day and you believed him.

Where did he tell you he is going to get the money + 100% interest from in 1 day or am I missing something?

Nice thread. How much will this type of factory cost apart from the land cost

I am living abroad and have 2 farms in Nigeria.
You will lose money, they will not execute the work to plan but on the long run it is better to start while you are away.

I did not make profit so far but I now have assets that I can call my own. I bought 100 acres of land for my 2nd farm, that money would have long gone if not that I put it into the land. I now have tractors and other implements for farming. I would not have been able to acquire any of these if I have not started while still abroad.

Most importantly, I have learnt a lot. You learn everyday so the earlier you start the earlier you can learn.

In terms of people, using my relatives to manage my farms has turned out better than using the so called consultants.

You end up teaching the consultants what to do while they scheme on how to fleece you or use pictures of your farm to get more clients that they can fleece.

My advice, if you have a business you can do abroad, do that, if you don't have the time to run a business abroad then get a relative to run your farm in Nigeria, but don't hand it over to him, guide and coach him frequently.

How was the 2016 budget spent? Why don't they give us feedback on the current budget before talking of new budget

How can one get this Trichoderma Viride product.

Olakunle Edun will not got to his Osun State and ask why his governor is owing 9 months salary, but wants to know what delta state government is doing with their revenue.

I smell mischief.
FOI act is not binding on states that did not domesticate it.

When 'saint' Fashola was asked to account for his state expenses under the freedom of information act, he refused, claiming that Lagos state has not domesticated the act.

Plѕ eхplaιn wнaт yoυ мeanт вy 'MODIFIED ENVIRONMENT'

Fruits go bad with time due to the normal metabolic processes that goes on in cells of the fruits. If you can slow down the rate of metabolism of the fruits, then you can preserve the fruit. One simple way to slow down the metabolism is to freeze the fruit, if it is a fruit that can withstand freezing.

Freezing is expensive and not all fruits can withstand freezing, that is where modified atmosphere fruit preservation comes in.

If you reduce the oxygen level in the air in a fruit container to about 2% and increase the carbon dioxide % to between 2 to 5%, you can then drastically reduce the metabolism of the fruit and make it last for several weeks to months without going bad depending on the fruit and the conditions used.

That is how they are able to ship bananas for example from south America to Europe by ship for several weeks without the banana going bad.

Type modified atmosphere or controlled atmosphere fruit preservation into Google and learn more about it.

I can give you 100 acres for rice farming in Delta state. It is upland.

Put them in a modified atmosphere. Fruits can be kept in good condition for several months in a.modified atmosphere.
