Agriculture / Re: Nigeria As A Prodigal Son by generalwhite(m): 9:04am On Jan 26, 2017
That's true. but we all believe that we can only go into Agriculture when we have half a million and above, which is a wrong notion. one can venture into the business with just 10,000 naira.
May God help us all...
Agriculture / Nigeria As A Prodigal Son by generalwhite(m): 8:56am On Jan 25, 2017
my name is FALEGAN MICHAEL, I'm a graduate of EKSU, Dept of A.P.H, Faculty of Agricultural Sciences.


The status and position of our country made me to sit, think and see this country as nothing but a prodigal son.

Oil is not our forte in Nigeria, though it's a blessing but we have misused the blessing by transforming it to a curse in this nation and this has turn the country to a prodigal Son.
This oil was discovered in 1956 at "Oloibiri" in the Niger- Delta by shell B-P which was sole concessionaire. But even before this discovery, Nigeria has always been the first in the international export market when it comes to oil palm, cotton, cocoa, groundnut, rubber. Then, there was tranquillity, and everyone was in a state on intense euphoria. But now, the boom of oil has led to the doom of agriculture which is even circumscribing so many students from going into such profession and those in the field of study are already feeling inferior when comparing themselves to students studying "Medicine, Law, Engineering, thinking of activities going on in the oil industry. I don't know why this so called Nigeria recognizes those in medical line more than others. But I can see that the control center of the central nervous system located in the skull of all the leaders in this country is working against their perception, cognition, attention and action. Because if not, can't they think and get this into their skull that students in the field of agriculture, particularly ANIMAL PRODUCTION AND HEALTH are working hard to prevent Zoonotic disease (disease that can be transmitted from animals to human). Also, without right nutrition (food), no doctors treatment can fix ones health and with the appropriate food, except for few exceptions, no doctor is needed which reveal to us that food is central and should be treated as such. Majority of the epidemic experienced in Africa is occasioned by malnutrition and lack of basic social amenities. But hierarchically, agriculture is recognized as the least in the country while Oil is set as the priority. Also, constructing high level of corruption, sending so many graduate (fresh and stale) to swim in a pool and represent Nigeria in that same pool of unemployment. Unfortunately, this country will derail eventually if we fail to go back into agriculture because we've neglected the sector totally because of oil. Let us look at Malaysia, they came to Nigeria and beg for oil palms free but four years later, they came back and say we don't want you to give us the oil palms free again, we will pay for them.
But today, this same oil palms which we ignored in NIFOR, OKITIKPUKPA and other places are now recompensing trillions of dollars for Malaysia. Diverse country who do not produce oil are earning more money from oil palm than Nigeria is earning from oil and gas. Looking at Nigeria as a prodigal son, there is a decline in value, which is leading to disastrous event of great significance in the economy. Temptation want to link me up to join Professor Tam David West in prayer that all oil wells in Nigeria to dry up so that Nigerians will come back to their senses. The prodigal son, when he came to his sense and went back to his father, was forgiven and his sonship was restored. The reservations of his(prodigal son) brother not withstanding. Once Nigeria gets her senses back intact, we will properly embrace Agriculture and our 'giant of Africa' title will be justified'. so Nigeria's glory will come back even admist fierce opposition if and when we genuinely focus on agriculture.

Computers / Please Help... by generalwhite(m): 3:09pm On Nov 28, 2016
I have an HP Laptop 650 running windows 7. All of my software and drivers are up to date and seem to be working. The puzzling circumstances that I have been having are;
1. The wifi switch (f12) on my computer constantly remains off and displays an amber light. I have tried everything to get wifi to work, but nothing has done anything. Whenever I try to look for a network to connect to, It only says that there are no connections available despite the fact that all of my other devices have internet and are working fine.
2. My track-pad also is not working.

Please Help !!!
