Perhaps people actually felt Obadiah malaifa was making noise when he said they plan to start a war in Nigeria inorder to hold on to power bfr 2023 and as it stands atm, Only the Igbos are ready to face these fulani demons blood and bullet for bullet if they bring war. I just wish our governors in the SW can see the hand writing on the wall and plan towards giving Amotekun better guns cuz fire is no longer on the mountain but it's bout consuming the mountain o

And Buhari said that Nigeria's unity beyond 2023 is his greatest priority. Let's be watching.

We invested a lot of money into AFAM but so pathetic a government like ours messed it up. I think the mistake we made on our own part in shell was overrating government with the transmission plans. We should have secured and negotiated the transmission contract alongside the generation .

What a country.

God help Nigeria. Govt should decentralize this power sector. Let states and local governments or communities who can lure private investors in do so and be disconnected from the national power grid. If an investor can come to generate, transmit and distribute to a certain number of communities let them do it. Come to countries overseas and see hundreds of different power companies serving different people. On my street alone there are like 4 different companies serving less than 20 houses. You have the right to choose which one favours your pocket.

Obasanjo fought the Lagos state government for wanting to do it way back if I'm correct. Imagine that Lagos state had been able to execute that project and are off the national grid, won't there be sufficient power to be distributed to the remaining states that are not proactive or financially strong to carry out similar projects? And I want to believe that if Lagos state had been able to successfully execute that, mark the words ''if'' and ''successfully'', some states too would have just had a simple template to copy and paste.

I worked for shell sometimes ago and there is this power generating station called AFAM that had a JV with Nigerian government. The annoying thing is that AFAM was only able to to send out less than 40% of what it was generating due to terrible transmission line being managed by govt/TCN. Sometimes less than 20% will go out and the plant was fully operating. Power was just lying wasted in the plant. Even the few that we were able to send out, for government to be able to keep up to its own part of the MOU by paying was a war. Funds were not coming in and generation production was gulping huge money.
.
We once went to excursion in Afam power plant. They told us same thing. It's a pity.

You can save hose by using clips instead of rubber for hose-to-pipe connection. You will just need 5-7cm of hose to overlap with the pipe and 2 clips. No matter the pressure, it will hold.

AgricultureRe: Starting Up My Vegetable Farm Garden From Scratch (ugwu, Tomato, Green-leaf) by FarmTech(mod): 8:28pm On Jul 09, 2022
jidestroud:
My Story

Okay, hmmm... where I wan start sef? Let me start by quoting a saying of my loving mother (God bless her mightily for us her children) which goes thus; "farmers needs to be prayerful oooo omo mi (omo mi - My child in yoruba). O ni la ti kun fun adura (you need to pray fervently) because everything & all things can go south at any time in a sec". Those were are words anytime she enquired about how my business was going with regards to agriculture. Believe me now my people, farming is highly spiritual and you certainly must believe in God or whatever works for you to tackle the spiritual aspect of it.

Sometimes in second quarter of last year I engaged in a massive project which involved me soliciting for funds & even went as far as getting loans to carry the successful running of the project. It was a contract I secured to raise a large quantity of birds for just 3-4weeks max of age before offloading to the buyers. Everything was set and the project commenced successfully. It was so successful that in a batch of a thousand broilers, we recorded just 12 mortality at the 3 weeks of raising them. I was so satisfied that I boasted like the one who built the titanic that nothing could sink this ship.

Then Nigeria happened

In the 3rd week of raising the birds, the buyers suddenly compromised on our deal and told me they had to slash on the agreed price. I was furious and refused to renegotiate with them. C'mon this was concluded deal I fumed at them. For the first time in my life, I regretted not putting legal structure in place. The negotiations went on and on and before I knew it, the birds were in their 5th week. At this point in time, I was expending unbudgeted funds on the project running into thousands. I already made up my mind to hell with them, I had to the means to turn the whole disadvantage to my success.

the devil came
After much persuasion and urging me to sell at a ridiculous price to them, they came visiting this final day saying that they knew the funds to raise such number of birds was above me (Thanks to family ooo), and I should stop being stubborn and just part with at least some; then one of them just said; Mr. Jide, if you don't sell to us all your birds go die oooo. Immediately, I and my partner on ground rebuked him and that was it.

Lo and behold, in less than 2 days birds wey die ehn!!!! I repeat, birds wey die ehn... I was afraid. Everything proved abortive. Nothing worked. (My people, I visit vet I taya. Test upon test no worked). ALL was lost. It was a disaster. At this point, I had spent millions & I was using my hand to bury my millions.

Series of events followed. The worker on my farm taking care of my goats & pigs resigned without my knowledge. He simply wrote a note on a piece of paper and put it at the entrance of my gate. Unfortunately, I didn't go to the farm for 3 weeks (I was trying to salvage the situation of the other project). I only did realise something was wrong when I got a call from the supplier of spent grains that I haven't been coming patronize her again, saying I have gotten another customer abi? I was stunned. Another customer bawo? I called my worker, he wasn't answering....to cut long story short. I got to the farm and tears started rolling down my cheeks when I saw what was left. At a point, I was asking myself, so na only 1% of Job's ordeal be this ooo!!! How e take endure?

To tell the truth, I lost everything... (God bless my friends I swear). Iyawo was a pillar in it all. She just kept praying and thanking God while I was angry at Him.

I put up so many things for sale (God no go allow us dey sell our property because of trouble ooo), at least, I go sha pay people back their money and pay off my loan debt.

Moreover, I had to stay away from a lot of things including social media and the likes. Debts come full ground yakata grin grin. I had to channel my chi into staying alive and staying healthy, na who dey alive dey get hope ooo. Once again, God bless my family (I tried putting up an all is well face, realising it was never a crime to ask for help) who intervened in their own little ways.

So far
Well, so far so good, i haven't ventured into anything farming this year. I recently visited my farmland last week since last year and I literally had a good laugh. Maybe, I will be hunting grasscutters & snakes for a while before kickstarting again.

Nevertheless, I have been able to learn alot from this experience which i will be stating later.

With regards to that particular man & his unterrance, I did confront him (Another epistle).

My absconded worker case dey Area K police station. Nevertheless, I have forgiven him and moved pass the situation. All can be recovered so long grace abounds and His breath remains in me.

For animal pest, simply fence it with net. Control weed before the vines cover the ground to minimize marching. Also make space for footsteps so that u don't march it too much when spraying pesticides.

I still believe in tithing. But seriously, churches shud sit up and start telling people the truth about sin. Look at how immodesty, dirty songs and dirty jokes are common among church goers and yet, pastors will keep mute on these matters. If things like these continues, I will pay most of my tithe to fellow saints that are winning souls for Christ. My church will only get 10% of my tithe and not 100% of it.
