Materialism culture aplenty.....no wonder marriages aren't lasting these days bcuz young people have become de-humanized by materialism,money and vanity.
Now ,the way you're derisively expressing being fed up with Kenyans is the same way your fellow Nigerians will be treated in places like Indonesia,Thailand or China next time they make headlines for wrong doing.
Snakes should also be perceived as medicine. If you look at an ambulance in the USA, there's the two snakes on the side of the ambulance. The caduceus, or the staff of Hermes, there's the two snakes going up it, which means that the venom can also be healing.
Pavore9: In life, we don't know who is watching us doing our thing in our little corner!
So i guess you've met her personally,right? If you meet her again ask her about the trip .Me and my wife we're planning a trip to Nairobi this coming Jan and going to see her farm is a must see.(btw ,my spouse is Igbo-American -her family is from Nkanu west ,Enugu)
Pavore9: Relatives?..........This world is really a small place!
From Kangemi to Indiana all because of vertical sack farming...........Her travelling to the U.S is a big up!
cc: lanre2009, that is the woman l got your sacks from!
Yup they're my relatives ,thats true from kangemi to Evansville,Indiana a trip she never ever envisioned its a wild dream trip for her.
The thing is poor folks here eat unheathy due to lack of supermarkets selling vegies and fruits in poor neighborhoods(especially black neighborhoods)The university saw this sack farming as healthy for such urban junk food addicts to get better nutrition.
Pavore9: The woman is one of real impact's certified trainer and reseller in Nairobi, Kangemi neighbourhood. She is really making good money from the venture.
Oh my God Pavore9 y'all made my day with this and i'm gonna shock you a bit regarding that video.I'm deadly serious ,not kidding .
1) Those folks in the video are my actual relatives i've been to that homestead.
2) That lady ,Mama Kamau,is tentatively due to visit University of Southern Indiana in USA at the invitation of their school of nutrition to teach them urban farming using bags.Funding for her trip is just awaiting approval by the department chairperson.
I'm gonna scan and actually post here some agri-magazine where she's on the cover that she sent to me here in Atlanta,Georgia.
Men like to cheat but don't like being cheated on. (Also applies to women)
Yes but the men cheat with OTHER WOMEN so your point null and void.It takes another woman for a man to cheat so there goes your unconscious bias in flames.
You're only reinforcing the culture of dependency, expecting freebies and lazy mooching off thats well known to these mohamedans.Why do you think the north is always poorer and lagging behind?
Brymo: To vastly improve your country and truly make it great again, start by choosing a better leader. Do not let the media or the establishment make you pick from the people they choose, but instead choose from those they do not pick. Suzy Kassem
You can't do that in Africa ....our continent is where the most important factor in voting is not policies,vision or ideas - the factors important to 90% of voters are tribe ,religion or regionalism.
Wait till the invasion of western decadence reaches its peak...then your son or daughter decides their career is being a IndecentStar just like in the western world.
Lol , some Nigeria parents will have a heart attack.
Explorers: A slum is a heavily populated urban informal settlement characterized by substandard housing and squalor. While slums differ in size and other characteristics from country to country, most lack reliable sanitation services, supply of clean water, reliable electricity, timely law enforcement and other basic services. Slum residences vary from shanty houses to professionally built dwellings that because of poor-quality construction or provision of services have deteriorated into slums.
Africa is a huge continent with a population of more than 1.1 billion. The continent’s population is set to double by 2050. More than 60 percent of urbanized Africans live in slums. They do not have adequate access to safe water, sanitation and other infrastructure. Their houses are of poor quality and are not secure. Kenya has one of the biggest slums in the world. Here are the 20 worst slums in Africa.
You know you're telling a bold shameless lie about Kiebra slum having of 2.5 m residents yet the whole of Nairobi has only 3.5m residents. Sensationalism feels good to bring others down but facts are golden.
Cletus77: i can see and their Nairobi city,see how their flat dirty with cloth hanging like goat den
You talk as if Ajengunle,Mokoko,Ijora Badia and many other Lagos slums don't look much much worse than this more acceptable 4 story housing.Stop your hypocrisy.
indigene: This picture was taken along kwilikwili street, kibera Slum in Kenya, the largest Africa urban slum near Nairobi. After the death of Jomo Kenyata , things like this, started turning up I blame Uhuru Kenyatha for for this.
Stop telling shameless open lies ,that car clearly has Lagos license plates you hypocrite.
Pavore9: Let us talk about Agriculture which is my forte. I am a moderator in the Agriculture section which l and many others clamoured Seun to create. Go through my threads, they are Agric based. I know the possibilities Agriculture offers.
I have worked on the field while l was in Nigeria and now am in Kenya. From knowledge l have acquired in the course of work l have regularly shared with follow Nigerians through Nairaland and today many are motivated into earning income from growing cucumbers in sacks within spaces hitherto nothing can be grown. To have someone in Lagos grow cucumbers on the decking of an uncompleted building spikes my joy!
I have interned with many Kenyan companies that export Avocados in 40ft containers, likewise firms that daily exports fruits and veggies through airlines. This is what Plateau State could replicate because they have the weather to do fruits and veggies and can utilize the Abuja airport to airlift their exports to major European cities as flight duration from Abuja is shorter by about 2hrs over Nairobi, Europe is heading towards winter, fresh fruits and veggies export from Kenya is going to increase.
Have gone on a working visit to this flower farm and realize there is levels and there are so many of them in Kenya. They earn over a billion dollar from flowers alone.
Even within Nigeria as l have posted in many threads that there is need for independent content providers to looking into Agriculture and produce content as there is no Kenyan TV station that do not weekly run at least 2 Agro based programmes such as Seeds of Gold, Smart Farm, Food Friday, shamba shape-up, Smart Harvest, Hela Mchangali, Breeding cash etc and there is a dedicated TV Station called Farmer TV and through me a lot of Nairalanders follow these programmes from Nigeria! I have assisted many send materials down to Nigeria to replicate what they have watched such as doing vertical sack farming so within a space of 30ft by 90ft one can do veggies that can attract N200K monthly.
It is in my future plan based on experienced gathered to work on delivery fresh cucumbers, lettuce, cabbage, courgettes, aubergine, green peas to city centres across the South east and be less dependent on these veggies coming from the North. Teach the rural folks how to organically grow them and post harvest preservation of the harvest for over a week without the loss of freshness and without the use of electricity!
Bros l don waka o!
Attached are pictures of how Kenya firms package Avocado for export.
Man ,this agriculture thing is dope.I also tip my hat off to you Pavore9 for your keen interest and focus on agribusiness you're doing an amazing job keep it up.
The reason for backwardness in your village is you and your kind not knowing Nigeria doesn't have ICT ministry and also not knowing that we have a separate agency in charge of ICT with an ICT professional in charge.
I educate ignorant villagers for free, it's public and community service that I enjoy doing..
In about 20 of your posts i've seen i have yet to see you argue coherently,respectfully and being led by facts not passion,misplaced pride or emotions.
You keep belittling other countries,calling Nigerians who disagree with you names,saying they're ipobs, you've used the words like "nonsense" meaningless,irrelevant ,upsidedown and "ignorant" like 40 times.You also ignore facts that don't favour you clearly biased opinions and keep labelling Nigerians of different opinion as "school children and that they have no pride or they love rival countries ahead of their own.
Argue on merits / facts alone and quit all that misplaced pride,name calling ,bias and unwillingness to accept that other folks also have a point
