Thank sir you for your comment
Alcohol sale is religious,has nothing to do with the this conversation. In the USA, a lot of "dry counties" dont sell alcohol as well. (Educate yourself if you are not aware)
Ranching would come at prohibitive cost to the average Fulani man, especially in a country where even humans cannot feed adequately due to inflationary government policies.
No deception nor hypocrisy, I am saying Nigerians should be free for all Nigerians to live and practice their trade. Whether you sell drugs as a pharmacist,or spare parts or a Fulani herder or a politician.

malali:
You might want to rear goat like chicken in agric cages as well ?
[b]Cows graze in brazil.
Brazil is the world largest producer of beef for a reason.
Even Nigerian human beings grazing with their 2 feet, cannot afford to feed themselves 3 square meals due to inflationary government policies, you now want to tie a cow down.
Ranching is feasible but its very expensive.[/b]

malali:
I actually like goat meat.
But you miss the point.

malali:
Potential Impact on Beef Prices
Implementing large-scale ranching could significantly increase the cost of beef due to the high expenses associated with establishing and maintaining ranches.These would make Nigerian cows too expensive for purchase as cows from Niger and other neighboring countries practicing open grazing will be cheaper in the open market.

Suggested Practical Solutions
Designated Grazing Areas: Allocate specific areas for grazing to prevent clashes while allowing pastoralists to continue traditional herding methods.
Conflict Resolution Mechanisms: Establish local committees to mediate disputes between farmers and herders, promoting peaceful coexistence.
Cooperative Farming: Encourage farmers and herders to form cooperatives, sharing resources and knowledge to improve productivity and harmony.
Community-Based Animal Health Services: Provide mobile veterinary services to support herders, reducing the need for long migrations and potential conflicts.
These solutions aim to be cost-effective and fair to both cattle herders and farmers, ensuring sustainable practices and reducing conflicts.

The Southwest is holding Aso-rock Office in Abuja
The South-south is FCT Minister in Abuja
Why cant the northern Fulani man feed his cow in the south ?
Lets be tolerant and restructure cattle grazing to accommodate everybody.[/color]

We need Igbo president to save this country. Hausa-Fulani have disappointed us; Yoruba has disappointed us; Our hope is now on the Igbo president to come and save us

I agree with you totally.
Just few days ago, I considered vegetable farming on the space I have where I live after I spent 4k buying Ugu and water leaf to cook for a family of 5.
This was totally unheard of.

None of these can be substituted because they can't be soaked for consumption like garri. The taste, appearance and uses are not the same.

Exemption of import duties and VAT for food is a welcome development.
The government should as a matter of urgency put certain limitations and restrictions on some foods that are home grown. The government only needs to provide grants and loans where application to individuals or specific cooperatives who would want to venture in agriculture and agro allied produce. The land is available. All the people need is security from persons who would cause to their produce and also modern technology for farming.

Johncuppa:
Nigeria's problems as at today are in the policies made by this administration.
And Tinubu is solely responsible for any policy biting on Nigerians.
It is not too difficult to change any appointment you made that is not meant to be.
People didn't vote for ministers or economy recovery team, they voted in Mr President.
Asiwaju should display his ingenuity they claimed he used to build Lagos

Johncuppa:
You cannot blame those people.
How can you bring in people to come and achieve for you something you cannot envisage yourself?
If you cannot be bold to discuss what you want, you cannot expect others to help you build it.
What was the vision? what was the plan?

casualobserver:
This is what I have been saying. Refineries have been shut for over 10 years producing nothing and collecting salaries. These same workers you can’t sack contribute nothing to GDP and lower the GDP per capita of every other worker but they are the ones striking!! You never see them striking to protest the non working refineries.




It cuts across board.

I hate to say it but I think he's right. The initial cause of the inflation was clearly from our leaders but the increment of wages MIGHT also add to the inflation especially if the govt borrows/prints more money to pay.

And I also agree with you that the right way to go is for those in power to cut on wasteful spendings to accommodate the improved salaries.

In fact, a wiser approach would be to introduce maximum wage. And that maximum wage should not be 10X more than the minimum wage. Therefore even at 30k, our leaders take home will be capped at 300k. You'll be surprised how immediately minimum wage will rise to 300k without striking 😁.

Where did you get that from? Let me tell you, Sunusi’s name was among the three names recommended to the state government at that time. And mind you Ado Bayero the 13th emir of Kano was enthroned when Sunusis grandfather was deposed by Ahmadu Bello and sir kashim Ibrahim. It was always politics

As for the road, a new govt wld reverse that,, he doesn't deserve it

nNo wonder he has been keeping quiet even when the govt is a calamity

My own is not proposed X a month

Break it down.. According to the UN anyone who lives below 2 dollar per day is poor that's the definition of poverty

2*30 is 60 dollars... That's 90,000 naira

Are you saying Nigeria workers should be poor?

Married couples need to earn 180k to escape poverty, with two kids 360k minimum

Please minimum wage of 150k then stop NNPC from selling petrol at a lose, remove petrol subsidy pay 150k minimum wage


Yes petrol would be 1200 pee litre but 150k minimum wage would cover it

Anguldi:
Only in Kano can a deposed king challenge his governor. Emir Ado Bayero is constituting public nuisance capable of bringing down law and order. The suppose chop handcuff and cell

Konquest:
The OP is Ibo and lives in Aba based on his past posts I have read. It's pretty obvious that these high prices are subjectively fixed based on the greed glands of wholesalers and retailers in the major urban areas.

However, areas outside the major urban areas have cheaper prices of commodities and other items. The governments at all levels have to find ways of regulating these arbitrary prices and set up whistleblower phone lines to report any person that sells above standard retail prices while working in conjunction with market unions in each state of Nigeria.

yewit37486:
Fair enough. But one big difference between garri and the ones you listed is you can't add groundnuts and water to take it, has to be cooked.

Fgovernor:
And what if everybody goes into subsistence agriculture, which effects would it have on the economy, Cassava and yam are not easy to plant in any little space. Considering the fact that most of us lives in rented apartments, this wasn't a main issue for Nigeria 10years old.
What's happening?
Prices of food items are rising everyday and you still call it inflation.

budaatum:
Were you my mother's child by any chance?

I ask because you are repeating what she taught me, apart from the pray bit.

Plantain flour and yam flour are expensive same as wheat.
The only alternative I can give now is pray.
