Crap.
If those 'victims' are not actors, then they were likely injured in the stampede. See that baba with his cap still firmly on his head and readjusting his arm. With the level of 'blood', I highly doubt he would be conscious if he was indeed struck by high-powered military rounds. Fact.

Then those clowns singing solidarity forever. Man, that's just unbelievable abeg.
I tot I was the only one that noticed the man still moved his body.

Business / Re: Introduction To Making Money From Export by aygentle(m): 8:26am On Feb 15, 2020
wengerman:
You can earn legitimate income from exporting agricultural produce to the overseas
Nigeria is blessed with rich natural resources, agricultural produce and other commodities like charcoal, honey, etc
By nature, every country has its comparative advantage over others.
Japanese are good in technology,United Kingdom are good in medicine
Ghana has gold
South Africa has diamonds
Nigeria has crude oil and fertile land for cash crops
Most of our agro products are of high yeild and good quality at the international market.
As long as there is life, people all over the world will continue to demand for agricultural produce No matter how bad the economy may be, people must eat in order to survive.
Clothes can be managed but food is essential for life
Because our agro products are of high yeild and good quality at the international market, there is high demand for them
They are sold at very attractive prices.Basically, there are 2 category of exporters
Because the are highly demanded for out there, you can make good money venturing into export business
1: The licenced
2. The unlicensed
Some people have relatives or friends abroad.
They package egwusi in Ghana-must-go bags, take them to the airport, freight the package/consignment to their relatives/friend residing abroad. The relative/friend gets the consignment, sell the content and repatriate the proceeds (funds) via western union money transfer, money gram, wire transfer, etc
At the end of the day, they'll say they are into export business.
They are actually exporting but are not licensed /permitted to do such business.
Export business goes beyond this.
They are doing this at their own risk because they can be caught by customsNo insurance cover
Their mind is not at rest
They are not entitled to EEG Export expansion grants
They cannot do volume of export goods
If you want to become a licenced exporter, you will have to register with the NEPC
Nigeria Export Promotion Council
This way you can be trading in 20ft or 40ft containers to people you've never seen before
You'll be entitled to government grants for exporters
The EEG is 15% cost of export goods you exported subject to a minimum of N5million in the precedding year of assessment
This is one of the so many ways the Nigerian government is encouraging non-oil export business in the country
For the sake of the economy at the moment, it is better to engage in export business than importation.
You can start export business with as low as N100k
From a humble beginning, one can start small and become a big merchant, well respected both at home and abroad
As a starter in the export business, you can start exporting as an unlicensed, gain exposure before registering with the NEPC.But if you register straight with the NEPC, better for you.
I really appreciate the details given, but can you expantiate more the process to be taken to get the required Documents for Export. Please educate me more on it.

[What are the causes of Kleg in Turkeys and the solutions to it.?
quote author=boluwajokosegun post=43232196]
INTRODUCTION

There is a big market for turkeys all over the country. The market research carried out so far
indicated none availability of turkey farms in commercial quantity. The country is importing
a lot of frozen turkeys from Cotonou the capital of Benin Republic. Not until recently when
the Federal Government banned the importation of turkey into the country, so there is a wide
market for turkey farmer.
The meat, fertilized eggs, feathers and the droppings can be marketed. Frozen turkeys are
easily available for purchase in our Local market. Turkey meat and fertilized eggs are
commonly demanded for all over the country.
Turkey rearing starts from day old which should be kept in a brooder house under appropriate
temperature for about five weeks. Then the birds will be separated into different houses, one
for the males that are fast growers while the females which grow slowly are kept in the
second house. They may stay there till the time of maturity which is 20 weeks. Then you can
sell them for money or leave them for production of eggs. You hatch your fertilized eggs at
another farmer's hatchery on payment as agreed. You don't need to have your own hatchery
before you can produce day old turkey.But you make more csh if you have an incubator.
Turkeys are the fasting growing of all fowl. The feeding of turkeys is very important as the
feed to meat ratio meaning the amount of feed it takes to make one pound of meat on the
fowl makes the difference. If you intend to put eight pounds of meat on a turkey in eight and
one half weeks it will take thirteen pounds of feed. During this eight week period the turkey
exceeds any other fowl in growth.
Many commercial growers prefer to raise the tom turkey as they will get more return for
their money even if the toms are butchered earlier to avoid their being too large for the
market. You could consider just growing all tom turkeys as you can cut down on feed costs
because of the factor involving the feed conversion factor. A tom of up to eighteen pounds
requires forty two pounds of feed. The hen of eighteen pounds will require fifty seven
pounds of feed to reach the goal.
When you are growing turkeys, especially on a small scale, there will only be a few strains.
There are about two dozen main strains of the large and the medium white turkeys that are
usually grown. That does not mean that all of the strains will grow the same as heredity is a
factor and also the hatching egg has a lot to do with growth. The small eggs will produce
small pouts.
You can increase the energy of fowl by using carbohydrates and fats and also be allowing
the correct amount of nutrients from a balanced ration. When you add fats into the feed for a
turkey you can regulate the amount of feed and also the nutrients the turkey will consume. If
the bird is very large it will take more energy to maintain the body and also to produce eggs.
The younger turkeys do not need the energy by feed increased. It is wasteful to feed very
high-fibre feeds as the crude fibre has no food value, is indigestible and is passed in the
droppings.
Energy is measured in calories and the calorie is the amount of heat required to raise the
temperature of one gram of water from 16.5 degrees to 17.5 degrees. Studies have proved
that the energy available to turkeys from various feeds by burning the feeds and measuring
the heat produced during the process. About one fourth of the energy produced by feeds is
lost in the droppings. The usable energy is called the metabolize energy (ME) value of a
feed, this is the means by which values of energy in feed is measured.
The temperature in the environment of the turkey has an effect on the amount of fat that
they require. If the temperature is cold, then the bodies will require more fat and they will
consume more food. If you can keep the area the turkeys are in at a temperature of 61-75
degrees F. the feed intake will be adequate and the nutrition will be suitable.
You will find by looking at commercial feeds that the feeds are not mixed for either a high
or a low temperature but for a sensible medium. Fats are useful in feeds as they will
improve the consistency.
A well-balanced ration supplies the amount of fat needed according to the age of the turkey
and also the type of turkey in ration to how much energy the body of the fowl will require.
Check out the labels and inquire at your local feed store as you will need to feed a certain
amount to each turkey poult up to eight weeks of age, then you will feed a different amount
over eight weeks of age. The more nutrition in the feed the more the feed will cost as when
feeding the proper nutrition you will be able to market the fowl earlier and thus save money.
Every three to four weeks after brooding the nutritional needs will change. The nutrients
necessary are: Vitamin E, Pantothenic Acid, Calcium, Niacin, ad Chlorine. Also needed in
the nutrition of feed for turkeys will be the following: fats, vitamins, minerals, amino acids,
and water.
Most of the commercial feeds have both plant and animal proteins in the poultry feed and
most rations consist mainly of cereal-type grains. Soybeans are very high in protein and are
used in poultry feed as they are considered plant protein.
Be sure to provide enough water for your turkeys to drink as water provides some trace
minerals and the function of water is primarily to help maintain body temperature. If they do
not have enough water then the body tissues will dry out and they will have dehydration. Be
sure to notice carefully when there are times of excessive humidity and heat as they will
need even more water than usual.
Turkey produce for meat is differently fed from the ones meant for the production of egg.
The bird must be protected against their predators especially from the early days of existence.
Enemies of the birds are:- Rat, Snake, Reptiles etc… Strangers should be kept away from the
farm. Where it is necessary that they should be there, they must clean their feet in a sterilized
shallow through at the entrance of the farm.
The farmer should always seek the economic ways to save cost giving the Turkey balance
feed, good drinking water, keeping the house clean will go a long way in preventing diseases
among the bird.













TURKEY FARMING

Here are a few things to consider before starting your own turkey farming business. Like most agricultural businesses, turkey farming requires adequate knowledge on
how to raise turkeys, even if you do allow them to roam around free in a range. There are
many aspects of turkeys that any turkey farmer should know about such as the kind and
amount of food to be given. Once you get the necessary education about turkeys, it would be
a good idea to get work or apprentice with an already established turkey farmer so that you
can get the experience of handling the turkeys.
