Bros read comparative advantage principle then come back

how old are you?u just jumped into rice farming jst now cos we are talking rice,soon u would be an iron forger in DSC, 9ja shaa, its well
A rice farmer frm phc or abakaliki

anastasius:
U should tell them that not me.

but thought you was amongst them ones damning the names

Igbochief001:
u want to export rice when u produce 2 ton per hectare while others produce 10 ...that's what's called comparative advantage ...obviously u don't get it

Im talking in the brighter future, if yu check growing rice ain't an issue but refining is the issue

geosegun:
Young man, you just shot yourself in the leg. As I said before, I am a practicing Geologist, so I can authoritatively say I have experience more than you in this area. Most of the oil reserves in the US are found within shale and not until recent that they had a break through via fracking. You will realise that the US has reduced oil importation drastically, even from Nigeria.

Why do you think the US government encourages fracking and not depend on the cheaper conventional oil from Nigeria and others but rather the US is accelerating oil production from the unconventional plays? The aim was to reduce the US dependence on Oil from other countries and hence aiming towards self sufficiency.

The US could have said that because Nigeria and Saudi Arabia have comperative advantages, they wouldn't bother to develop the more expensive fracking methods but rather continue to depend on oil from other countries?

Can you now see how you have shot yourself in the leg? Going to the university is not about cramming and racking your brains on numbers alone. you also need to understand how things work and when not to apply theories. Henceforth try and be pragmatic in your approach.

All they very best.

@ the bolded is what I was trying to explain to him, the availability and means of extracting raw materials plays a leading role in exploration and extraction.He needs to read the history of metals right from start age

Igbochief001:
self sufficiency even it means producing it at more expensive rate ?

it's like saying Nigeria can export rice lmao

we export timber, if we invest wisely we can export rice. the population of japan is not up to Nigeris, the export rice.We shy away from Agriculture and other stuff in Nigeria hence we are where we are today, look in the south 2020, no one has been able to farm cattle properly yet it's same south the Nothreners kill to bring their cattle to for raring, does that not teach you something, Just take for instance the fishing industry, once people mastered the art of breeding fish there are fewer people fishing in the wild these days!

anastasius:
Huh? Ur point?

Embrace ur culture, names and tradition, dont redicule them cos them whom you copy does so to thier own!

anastasius:
Why do Ijaw people bear funny names? Someone bearing police, Helpme, Nurse etc. I don't understand

This is Unique and must be embraced, people of the Uk have names like Fox and Wood, U don't see anyone going about ridiculing them, Africans embrace ur identity and culture pls.

Igbochief001:
3 billion that's China's 3 year production ...bro give up we don't have comparative advantage in steel

U missed the point, its all about self-sufficiency, not export, china has up to 2 billion people and vast landmass as big as 60% of Africa if I'm not wrong. the highest deposit of ore in the Eu is in Germany and it's not even up to 10% of the output of China, let's be guided in our arguments pls.look at the Uk, steel is preferred to wood and in some cases cheaper than wood. Nobody is arguing that china does not have an edge but you can see the rapid production lines they have, human labour is cheap and rapid, I have been to china like 4 times in the past for imports, these guys work like ants however recently their own economy is changing from export target market to local and a consumer economy as more and more of them turn to middle class!

tshoboy:
Thanks. I actually moved to the UK less than a year ago and haven’t been able to get a credit card. I have been on the voter’s register for 8 months or about and I pay all my utilities via direct debit. However, I understand it will take a while to build the scores.

Stay away frm credit cards, why would you need one now? U want to get into debt quick??

kode12:
Can anyone advise on a credit card I can obtain with less than a years living history in the UK please. Most banks require more than one year which I don't have.

capital one and vanquis

elisinho:
What's today's rate please people

i think it has dropped down from 605 to 595

DelphiOracle:
Airport wey them commission that day na im Dem dey renovate na na.

Nah the OP dey yan dust.nothing was renovated.

mentored:
Well done Sir


I have been to ALL the airports you mentioned before and after the previous pictures we’re shared.


It’s entirely different from what you are painting up there.

Please do not take it personal.

PH was an eye sore quote me anywhere - unless all the images flying around are after lock down.

when was the last time you went fru PHC Int??

Igbochief001:
can u rest now ?

Erm what does ur Attachment prove?
Rich Ore has more than 5050 iron, what is wrong with that?Plus you are talking one region

There are over 3 billion tones of iron ore found in kogi, Enugu, Niger, Zamfara and Kaduna States. Iron is currently being mined at Itakpe (Kogi State), which is more or less at the centre of the region of crystalline iron deposits
Like I said B4, u r not in the Know

Igbochief001:
lol our ore that's medium grade over 80% ...Nigerians to like to lie to ourself

u r not in the know on this one accept it.u cant give what U dnt have!

Igbochief001:
oga those timber come from Cameron and Congo ...I grew up in ph ...na my people mbiase people for garbon dey run am

free Bros no worry

See you nah,U grew up in PH, there is no Timber in PH, come to Sapele,or benin or Ondo where we have land saw mill, Im based in PH wen in 9ja but grew up in sapele.Why do you think we had the biggest Timber factory in sapele back in the days, fyi there is a timber named after sapele, google it, its called sapele wood.

Igbochief001:
we are better than countries like Australia , usa , Canada , India , Iran , Russia who could not produce as cheap as china ?

They do not have the cheap deposits of ore like Nigeria, UK, German. We are lucky to have easy to extract ore just as our Oil is easy to refine! There is more than meets the ete, market strategy just doesn't work in these unique products of the Earth. This is not your ordinary commodity market. Ask urself this, Y is the Chinese shifting into Africa? even those they have the 1st advantage of having the highest deposit of earth rare minerals?

Igbochief001:
lol u don't know we import most timber in Nigerian market ? lol oga there is what's called comparative advantage we don't have it in steel

I'm done talking

U def dnt live where timber is sawn and cleaned, Im from the SS,go to places like Warri, Sapele,Benin, Ondo and lagos and see where timber is exported.U def have no clue about timber.

Igbochief001:
if we produce our own steel it would be far more expensive than importing from China ...hope u get it now

Nop, it's like saying refining our own Oil is more expensive than importing!or importing timber is cheaper than producing ours

Igbochief001:
it's cheaper to import than produce ...why not import cheap steel n use it to build what ever we want

cos we have raw materials at close proximity we can actually manufacture cheap and small plus local.Metal process requires huge power, once this is actualised we are good to go.

diportivo:
tell is what we don't know

what "Nigeria condition dyu mean?

i have lived in climes where temp gets to 40° in summer and they don't change their oil to 20w50 cos of that

so,what exactly is ur point

nah the group wey the quote tropicalisation of car there bye wire radiator fan direct B that ahah,The claim say abroad cold 9 ja hot, 4getting that some part of the so-called abroad hot pass 9ja

Kingdemu:
Stop confusing yourself Sir. The viscosity of an engine oil signifies the weight of that oil. The lower number is the oil's cold start performance weight and the number after W describes how thick (weight) the oil is at the engine's normal operating temperature. It has nothing to do with outside temperature or the environmental temperature. 5W30 does not mean it should be used in places with temperature ranging from 5°C to 30°C. No, it means that the viscosity of the engine oil at cold start is 5 and at the normal operating temperature of the engine it is 30. Viscosity means the state of being thick, sticky, and semi-fluid in consistency, due to internal friction of an engine. Let's be guided pls.

just watch the way he will attack u based on he has no clue of what U jst said!

dammypee55:
Please I have ml 320 1998 model. The right side of the cylinder is not working. I have taken it to Mercedes benz specialist, he checked it by interchanging the plugs and the coils to the left side but still that right is not working. Kindly advice me on what to do

hmm ur car is 22 yrs old, you should be looking at doing few factories recommended renovation on it b4 U have a catastrophic damage

MiddleDimension:
why hasn't the one in Lagos completed yet?
i wonder how this country does things. the one in Lagos should be better in size and more beautiful in architectural design than all the others even the one in Abuja. what do you think? but it looks like Lagos is not given priority at all even though it is Nigeria's busiest airport.

50% of Nigerians who use the LOS airport do not live in lagos, as the years goes along, there would be a drastic reduction of traffic in lagos

serox2324:
Please my Toyota Camry big daddy bought second hand used to short oil and there is oil spill in the radiator and reserve container but the engine and s not smoking. Please what will stop this?

you have leaks, you need to find the leak ie go to a good mechanic to carefully remove stuff and source the leak. This is dangerous as it can start a fire, I'm talking from 1st hand experience

Freelane33:

Our toyota gang dey come 4 you in a minute jst wait

Igbochief001:
lol the world is now a global village ...a small country that focuses on their comparative advantage even if it's orange would make far more money than u

comparative advantage is the way to go ...America has the largest oil reserves but still import oil ...u think they are fools ?

Using teh American factor as per Oil holds no water here, cos the only reason why Americans leave their own reserves is simple, its cheaper to import than to explore, ie their own Oil is far more expensive to extract. The same cant be said with Iron ore.If you look back just now ate share gas and oil it crashed the price of Oil just cos they found a new and cheaper way to extract it!.

Igbochief001:
serious steel business is no business china has killed the business ....

best thing is to have duty free steel import so that companies can import steel as raw materials and use them to produce things ....that's why I look at Nigerians fighting for ajokuta

china has killed steel industry completely

you are wrong, we have the raw materials so its not dead.we cn support and suppply the local Economy.we need more steel in Nigeria like kilode

egbeocha:
Don't mind dat myopic OP. Nigeria is jst like d more u look d less u see. Fake pictures everywhere. Am sorry 4 those who will swallow this rubbish as d true pictures of the project.

This Airporrt has been like this 5 years ago we only began to use it2 yes ago.

hammer8:
THE ONLY REASON ANAMBRA IS BUILDING SUCH A MASSIVE AIRPORT STRUCTURE IS BECAUSE NIGERIA ARE HELL BENT ON FRUSTRATING THE IGBO MAN OUT OF THE SOUTH EAST REGION.


THEY USE THINGS LIKE AIRPORT AND SEAPORT AS WEAPONS OF OPPRESSION, THINKING IT CAN LAST FOREVER.


WEN THEY GAVE APPROVAL TO ANAMBRA TO BUILD INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT THEY THOUGHT IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE BECAUSE THEY BELIEVED THERE WAS NO MONEY FOR ANAMBRA TO AFFORD SUCH.


YET ANAMBRA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT IS RISING EXPEDIENTLY LIKE A PHOENIX FROM THE ARCHES.


LET THEM KEEP DELAYING ENUGU, IN IGBO LANGUAGE, WE SAY A PERSON THAT IS HOLDING ANOTHER PERSON DOWN, IS ALSO HOLDING HIMSELF DOWN.


Y? BECAUSE THE MINUTE U GET UP, THE PERSON U WERE HOLDING ALSO GET UP.


THEY ARE HOLDING ENUGU AND ANGRY IT WAS BUILT, OUT OF THEIR WICKED HEARTS.


BUT ANAMBRA AIRPORT WILL PUT BOTH ABUJA AND LAGOS INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT TO SHAME.

let me tell U it would have been better for Anambra to use that money for power stations to generate power.we have PHC Int not fully used and the port of One there as close proximity so Y build new ones?as it stands we have Lufthansa,Air France and Turkish airlines in PHC. so who is going to fly to this ur new Airport??

olagbola45:
that how dey fully paid for 2nd Niger bridge

Always splitting shit...they have lock most of you guys brain with lies
