Are you saying that parents in Western countries are able to afford these things? Why do students abroad owe school fees? Are you also aware that, while the UK was increasing fees for international students, UK/EU students had their fees reduced? Every Nigerian student you see in the UK pay more than the average UK citizen. Yet these people still find themselves in debt.

Nothing is easy anywhere. I agree that the world has become a global environment but that's actually an advantage to people who want to stay back. I'm sure you're aware that some Nigerians now earn $$$ from Gbagada and Mowe. More so, the idea of education is fast changing.

We are in an era where Elon Musk will pay you $8000 for creating a s**upid content on Twitter.

Some children will grow up wondering why we box them into the 6-3-3-4 thing. As much as we desire the best for them and want to use them to achieve the dreams we couldn't achieve, we should be mindful, so we don't make the same mistakes our fathers made.

So like the topic implies,how does Barry Callerbaut, the Swiss cocoa giant sources its cocoa in Nigeria?
Is there anyone here that understands the entire steps and supply chain?
Will love to get a detailed breakdown of how this works.
Cc emmanuelewumi,ahiboilandgas,emmaodet jedisco,etc...throw more light if you can.
Also,seun, nlfpmod, mynd44,Dominique.
This is front page material in my opinion as it'll give youths an insight into how they can key into the cocoa value chain.
Let's discuss,
No insults and any tribal bs here please, jobless clowns should stay off!

Register with NEPC... Nigeria Export Promotion Council.
That is where most importers lodge their import request and the NEPC post this offer on their platform to exporters with terms and conditions, price etc

What's really ugly is the amount of hatred and jealousy in you. What stinks is that you will love to travel and have people happy for you. You will love to be admired and called fine. You will love to have a daughter and people will admire your daughter. But someone else feels okay with herself and it's a problem.

lets just i say i study current and ancient truths to make life and eternal more profitable.
Ancient greek philosopher said giving gratitude in the mind is one of the best ways to open wealth of information deep inside the mind.
And also in this age of internet there much very much information accessible about current and ancient truths that stand the test of all time.

Some teachers mostly past on and current who have good vidoes on YouTube include

Rudolf Steiner
Bobby Hermit
Mainly PHall
Allan Watts

to name a few of those i found most informative

Adolf Hitler was satanic man who found Rudolf Steiner's information so unacceptable that he burnt down Steiner's library.
Adolf Hitler was known to be into coprophilia, those who get sexual pleasure from people shitting on them.

Mainly P Hall was the spiritual teacher and mentor of former US president Ronald Regan.

Bobby Hermit is by far one of the best world wide teachers about global spiritual practices weather good or evil.
As black American he also a practioner of youruba IFa religion in USA.

Allan Watts is the only person i ever listened to that made me see a whole new side of the world that i never realised is right there before your eyes hidden in plain sight. As he says never forget that anywhere you look, its the background that makes the foreground visible.


Cause anybody who is not aware of the ancient truths is a zombie being moved along by the prevailing current of the time.

Hmmmmmm
Thanks for the names. I will check them out

Education, the cosmopolitan city, the fast life is all the same thing, a life fully engrossed in matter, Matter is derived from ancient word maya, maya means illusion.

You could well have said why does marriage of village people last longer than those of people in the city. Its cause the people in the city have been exposed to much of the illusory world, and thus ambitions and expectations have become inhumane and unrealistic.

The fast life with the schools, offices, bills , traffic , education and all thier stresses are like a stain akin to exposure to toxic nuclear waste.
Anybody wishing to remain in sanity should really limit exposure to just what they need to make ends meet.

Never look upon the cosmopolitan and its education as a way forward, at best its a necessary evil.

You could be impressed with education and civilisation in maya/matter , until you find out that its said that the world was more technologically advanced during the time of Abraham than it is today , cause its said the ziggurats alien looking flat top pyramids in iraq were built around the time of Abraham and that he grew up around those structures.

There is far too much evidence around the world to show that many periods in ancient times were more hitech than today, example Olumorock in Abeokuta is an ancient man made structure of woman laying down, you can see this from helicopter etc. They could not have built that structure without lots of machines , not the pyramids in Egypt and many palaces in Europe and Russia have the same story .

here is YouTube page of Russian lady who goes around the world researching those ancient structures from long lost civilisations of the past, focus on her older vids not the new ones, cause a re newer vids are more about her life journey. Its from her i foundout about olumo rock being part of ancient civilisation of giant people.

So that in the ancient books that most people never get to read, but secret cults share with one another, it is said that civilisation rise and always necessarily fall cause the very essence of civilisation and its education and its fast life is draining the life force of the population to a point where it all has to end in some catastrophic disaster like war cause everybody gets too arrogant , selfish , greedy and complacent . Then the survivors start the process all over again, much like sea water keeps coming home to the beach and retreating all day .

The builders of civilisation it said, always retreat into thier caves when the chaos starts, then they come back to rebuild from scratch all over again.

They build the civilisation knowing full well that what it takes to build that civilisation is going to make the people soulless, and thus eventually leading to the collapse of the civilisation. Just like sea water rises high promising to wipe out the beach only to crash at shore, then it starts all over again. They do say people and all solids are doing what the water is doing, except in slow motion.

Exposure to the civilisation and its ways is making the people less human , less able to get along , all the while they get more hitech.

This is why many religions like islam / Judaism advocate getting out of civilisation say 5 times a day, dropping everything and retreating to a quite place, they treat exposure to matter/maya as as exposure to toxic waste that needs to be limited. Jews for example dont touch anything with electricity on sabbath/Saturday.

No, technology , education, civilisation, cosmopolitan etc is not a novel idea, its at best a necessary evil to which one needs to limit their exposure to what you need to make ends meet.

This is why its often the case that the more a certain tribe does well at school, the more such a tribe are likely to be arrogant, selfish, greedy, jealous.

They say the smartest kids come last in class, cause thier purpose is to see the night whilst those that come first are here to see the day, and need guidance by night from the former.

No please dont ever think you making progress through education and promotion , its strictly for putting food on the table, cause its a stain on the soul. Cause of all the concentration you have to sacrifice into it.

Marriages last longer in the village for same reason that village people have simpler jokes that city people will find boring.

So that every time you give the world your eyes can see your full attention , you are in a way exposing your spirit to toxic waste, its a necessary evil that should be limited in moderation, but some then go ahead and turn that into a university and 9 to 5 career job .

The ancient teachers say , for with each new knowledge comes corruption of the soul. So that he who comes first in class, is far more likely to have a very depraved dark mind.

This is why certain cultures go out of thier way to keep it simple, slow and steady.
Cause the invisible world with which we are supposed to be in concert with is more like a church choir , from whom we detach every time we go into noisy, busy, fast pace life.

So the marriage of educated people dont last as long , cause they are living a life of corruption.
And many dont realise its a trap, there is nothing new under the sun, the ancient civilisations were more hitech than today and things always fall apart cause everybody becomes corrupted by the very essence of the the civilisation process.

This is why its not a bad idea to choose a marriage partner from some remote village, thus not yet so stained by the toxic waste that is so called civilisation, for we are spirit before matter.

There is an ancient god worshipped in Europe when Europe was still run by its melanated dark skin founders , his statue always shows him with one eye open and the other closed, depicting that try not to get carried away by the day and events, limit exposure of the open eyes, and look inside more often , seek out the dimly lit quiet places where everything is slow, lest you miss the beat of the choir of trinity.

Hmmmmmm

These are esoteric knowledge.
Are you a student of esoterism?

PstDapo:
I know majority of women are dishonest but you just took yours to a whole new level. Quite sad if I must add.

On any scale, in any environment, more women are likely to be sexually loose than their male counterparts. I mean as a woman, all you need is a great body to court attention of men. Men will promise vacation, cars and many more to have a taste of that coochie.

Just for being a woman, either poor or rich, men will PROMISE or GIVE something in return for sexual pleasure from you. For a man, it is not so, your access/ownership to resources qualifies you for sex and it doesn't even guarantee it.

Especially that hoe phase of 16 - 24 years, girls change boyfriends like they are changing scarfs, it is fuçking sooo easy. Women are getting laid and getting money as a plus. And you have the nerve to say we have more faithful ladies than guys? Perish that thought abeg.

Only about well-to-do 20 guys can be fuçking 800 girls during that hoe phase and the struggling guy have to wait for crumbs.

For left overs, for washed up women, single mum's, divorcees, aging ladies etc

Poor men don surfer for this life.
Life is truly unfair and if you talk that you deserve more than these type of ladies, people will be quick to shout you down to manage them, be grateful for even having one.
Afterall, it is our gender that spoilt them like that. So we should chin up and accept them like that.

An Army Officer has four properties in Suncity Estate, Abuja?!

Sun City that is considered the best estate in the entire Lokogoma axis? Where a standard 3 bedroom bungalow with a security room costs between 70 to 80million naira? Na im Army officer get FOUR solid properties for the same place? And he even has other properties in Utako, Gwarinpa, Maitama, Garki? The enclaves for the "creme de la creme" of Abuja..

No wonder officers kill themselves in those military finance departments.

Corruption in this country should just be legalised.

My brother see properties fear catch me.

I earn far more than this werey general but I still struggle to finish one house.
Thieves everywhere.
One thing have noticed in Nigeria is that it is very very very hard to acquire much assets with your salary alone without short cuts.
People with lower salaries but with short cuts will achieve more than a big salary earner.
My friend works with nestle. A regional sales manager and earn around 350k per month though many bonuses and allowances but no matter what, he lives far far far more than his salary.
He has never bought tokunbo car in his life.
He buys brand new tear nylon jeeps every blessed 2 years while me wey they earn far far far far more than him, him no dey even see my back. Na tukuteke we dey drive up and down.
See me dey drag tokunbo car. E get one stage sef, I dey chase Nigerian used car wey still clean up and down.
Thieves plenty for this country. Armed robbers in suits and military outfits

Parachoko:
I'm surprise a Nigerian Army General can afford to own all that Properties

Nah the Nigerian Army some People want to take over b dz o

My brother. We are in spirit.

For a general earning less than 1m per month, acquiring such properties really raises a lot of heads.
Thieves

Acidosis:
The truth of the matter is that Nigerian women in the UK will always have an edge over their husbands. This is not about the UK laws but the fact that most japa trips from Nigerian families were initiated by the madam of the house (wives). Many will do anything and everything to remain in that country, including destroying the marriage.

Hmmmmmm
Women are the one pressuring men most to japa

Adding to your skills also, Learn how to kill snakes in Nigeria, starting from, Boas to Pythons, Vipers and the likes It'd be an essential skill when you get to Australia

As long as your wife can/will feed you without complaints (just in case things do not turn out well for you), then you will be fine.

Your concerns are very valid. Not many 48 year old men would leave a N1.1m accounting job in Nigeria to go kill snakes in Australia as someone suggests here. I won't do it at gun point.

Regex:
No mind those nincompoop.

Flight to America from UK is cheaper than flight to America from Nigeria. Yet tax high for UK and their pilots are paid well.

Exactly.
They pay their pilots far better, their planes are far more maintained than ours yet our own flight is more expensive than their own.

Who is bankrolling this trip

No one needs to bankroll it. It is virtually affordable if you fly from Europe to Morocco.
One way $26/25k naira
To and fro $70/65k
Are you saying most Nigerian working force won't be able to afford this?
No one sponsored her bro

Kingzy4pep:
She flew from LGW Gatwick airport in London, so I believe she paid for herself.
A week shift will mostly foot that trip.

Nigerian girls in UK dey ball o, especially all those small small nurse. I have a couple of them wey don tour more than 5 schengen countries for this summer.

Flight from UK or Europe to Morocco is even very cheap. Very very.
I still checked it out 4 days ago.
It is about 30k naira one way so I am not surprised she made the trip.
Even shenghen within flight is about $20 one way.
So traveling will be very easy.
Just imagine you can travel from Lagos to Ghana, Senegal, Kenya for just 20k or 30k, do you actually think many Nigerians won't afford it?
Most civil servants will go on vacations and even a mechanic that collects Ajo of 200k for a year can use 70k to go relax small for another country.
Our leaders are very very wicked.
How can Lagos to Abuja be 50k /$50 within country while moroco to London is 30k/$30.
There is not foocking explanation or excuses for it. They are just plane wicked.
I love vacations alot but mere thinking of coughing out millions for vacation gives me heart attack.
E suppose no be so now. Just common south Africa or kenya, you must spend above a million for flight, visa and other things. It is foocking too much.
I can bet you this lady didn't spend more than $300 for the whole thing which is reasonable but from Nigeria, Morocco flight alone is about 600k. Haba... Shogun laye ni yet Morocco to London is $30.

@ bolded.
Without any sustainable income, they wouldn't be able to maintain the car or the house they rented.

I used to know a guy (about 28 years of age) In the former area where I lived in 2021.

One Sunday morning as I was going to church, I saw him in the midst of a crowd of guys, they were throwing him up, I slowed down and asked someone close by what the problem is and he told me that this guy just won a bet of about 9m from bet9ja.

That was the last day I saw him in that area until last year when I ran into him. He was looking so haggard and unkept, I couldn't even believe that this guy who had 9m just last year is practically broke a year later.

Most young guys have no plans for themselves, so even if by some miracle, money finds it way to them, rather than set up themselves and become financially buoyant for life, they'll just squander it on women and clubbing and remain poor.

This is why Yahoo boys are always broke.

You have said it all bro.
I believe many youths will die of depression or commit suicide in this era.
Most have not prepared themselves for life in 30s. They are really going to be a big burden for their immediate families

Nazgul:
Most guys in their late teens and early 20s lack the blueprint of how they want their lives to be in the next 10 years.

If you want to experiment this, meet 100 random guys in their late teens and early 20s and ask them what they'll do if 5m is credited into their account.

You'd be shocked that more than 95% of them would be unable to give you a business oriented answer, aside telling you that they'll invest it or do business, if you probe deeper to know the kind of business or investment they intend to do and how they plan to execute it, they'll go mute...this is beginning of failure.

What occupies the minds of most of them are irrelevant things like women, more women, sex, gambling, masturbation, alcohol, clubs, more women, relationships...etc.

You can't carry all that gabbage in your 20s and expect your 30s to be successful. Life isn't magic.

You are totally right.
Most youths are not prepared for the future that awaits them.
All they know is flexing, banging, clubbing etc
Tell a youth between 24 to 30 years what they will do with 3m and most will tell you to rent an apartment and furnish it or get a nice ride because the 3m is not enough to japa (which is virtually what is in their head).
No other thing. Nothing

Nazgul:
America, Germany, UK and a few other European countries have stopped issuing tourist visas to average Nigerians cos they know that they won't come back.

To get a tourist visa to any of these countries, you must either be a top government official, a top military personnel or a director in a top company.

Anything aside these, your Visa would be rejected.

So this suggestion wouldn't work for an average Nigerian.

Well, maybe.
You raised a good point

When a woman loves things around you and not you

I have seen girls falling for guys with good cars good house but when they start getting bored of those things they start looking for who they really loved unconditionally

There is nothing like love unconditionally.
If they are not happy with a man doing well financially and taking care of their bills, na the man wey dey inside poverty them go like? Just they play.
Go to magistrate courts like the one in ibadan and Lagos, 70% of why marriages crashes is due to finance and not Love or a good dick.
Poverty na your mate?
Also, In my little time on this earth, have seen Love failed so many relationship and Marriages than Money will ever do and you can take that to the bank.
