AgricultureRe: See The Proceeds From My Family's Yam Investment (Photos) by GreatManBee: 7:24pm On Jan 30, 2021
jumper524:
So earlier last year, my dad decided to go into yam business. The most common in my area kuje Abuja to be precise.

Since we're just starting, we bought seedlings worth of 40k.
We later found out that seedlings are more expensive and scarce during farming/planting period.
We got the land for free
We paid farmers #20 per ridges and we dug about 500ridges.
Meaning. #20*500= 10,000

Total money spent on investment was approximately#60,000 plus running cost.

The farmers were paid 6k to harvest the whole yam.
Those guys started as early as 6am and we're done by 2pm just 3 of them.

Truck that packed it was paid 1k.


Pic 1 and 2, the big size yams we want to sell. Those buyers are pricing 45k

Pic 3 are the ones for home and family consumption. Any remainder would be added to seedlings.

Pics 4, the small yams we want to preserve as seedlings.

Think we got a lot from our investment in the end.
Good job well done. If you invested 60k and buyers are only willing to pay 45k. How do you consider that a good investment. Especially looking at all the work you have put into it.

Fulanis were beaten black and blue at Oshogbo in their attempt to push further into Yorubaland from Ilorin in the early 19th century.

Ilorin itself would not have fallen if Afonja did not rebel against Oyo.

Fulanis can NEVER conquer Yorubaland.

DNP2020:
Very Strange Experience With My Father. Should I Be Worried?

Hello guys.. the background behind this story is lenghty so to spare you the trouble ill jump straight to the point. My father though he has his flaws is a very religious and i dare say principled man in some aspects.n He never misses church service. Went to bible school. At one point he was even a house fellowship leader. He prays and fast often.

So on this day i was standing in the doorway to my dads room. He wanted to send me on an erand ''i think'', so he opened his wardrope to get to get the money. Immediately he opened his wardrop i saw a BAT...yes BAT hanging upside down right there in his wardrope. In shock i jumped and shouted

''daddy see bat see bat !!!''.

Guess what he did. He simply smiled and gently closed his wardrope. I have never been this confused. I saw a bat hanging upside down in his wardrop and all he did was smile and gently closed the door. I don't know what to make of it. I have already concluded, there is no way on earth this is from God. Up until this time i have never seen a bat up close in real time. The closest ive been was watch them on television. Contemplate how scared and confused i am now. I picked up an excuse and ran out of the house to go stay with my relative..its been a week since i left and im still too scared to go back.

What do you folks make of this? How can a man who prays and fast and attends bible school have a BAT in his wardrope. WTF !!

Theres a part two and this one is about my mother.
Have you bothered taking time to ask him?

The Ogun State Government has earmarked 37,000 hectares of land for the development of a new town that will straddle the Papalanto axis in Obafemi Owode Local Government all the way to Ifo in Ifo Local Government area.

The new town, which will be part of the Lagos Mega City, will take off from the left hand side of the Papalanto road where Nestle Nigeria Plc has its factory off the Abeokuta-Shagamu dual carriageway and will traverse Mowe, Ofada, Loburo and Ifo communities, among others.
I am so sorry to resurrect this topic. I have a question please because I have a house at Olowotedo (NASFAT) axis. Does this mean all these properties will be taken over or demolished when the government is ready to use the lands? These lands goes from I think berger to Sagamu interchange. Some to enlighten me please? Now I am really scared.

It is looking like a big Cobra shed that skin. OP better strategies how to hunt it down, if not your birds are finished.



I'll sugest you poison some eggs and place in the hole. Use a syringe to extract some sniper then use an injection needdle to inject it into two or three eggs and place where the snake will likely find it to swallow and that's it.

Don't forget to come and appreciate me for this. One or two chicken do me. I no greedy grin grin grin

IRCC sees IT as internship and they don't generally reckon with internships, especially in Nigeria.

That being said, if it was a paid internship and the pay was considerably good, then the responsibilities that comes with that would definitely not be of internship levels so you may be in the clear here.

For the reference letter, just state it as follows;

This is to certify that John Doe is an employee of Thomas Duck Organisation. He was admitted as an intern (insert position) in January 2016 through February 2017. He later returned as our (insert position) in March 2018, a position he holds till date.

My Timeline
Apr 2018 - IELTS - LRWS 7.5, 9, 6.5, 8 First attempt (BC)
July 2018 - WES - BSc
July 2018 - CRS Score 398
Dec 2019 - Finished MBA
Mar 2020 - IELTS - LRWS 9,9,7.5,7.5 Second attempt (MOD) - I used ieltsliz and ieltsonlinetests to prepare.
Apr 2020 - WES Evaluation for MBA
July - Got married and jumped into the pool next day CRS - 482
ITA - Aug 5

Medicals were done at Qlife Lagos, quite seamless. I booked via a phone call to the phone number on their website. We got there before 8 am and left around 11 am. PCC was at Alagbon. Wifey did one and same person affidavit at Ikoyi High Court same day.
Education - I attached BSc and MBA certs and WES

Marriage - I attached the wedding cert and a collage of pictures from our wedding.
Employment - got reference letters from my previous and current employer - same NOC, 5+ years in total. The former did not state salary earned so I added my employment offer letter which shows the salary breakdown. Thanks to Mamaroon for helping to check how my JDs match the NOC 6235
POF - 80% in Mutual Funds and remaining in spouse's account. I attached reference letters from SIAML for the mutual funds, from spouse's bank and a simple letter from her stating that I have access to the fund in her account. I also created a word document showing a breakdown of the POF accounts, the equivalent in CAD and screenshot from XE for the conversion rate used. All put together in a single PDF file.

I used icecream pdf for all merging and splitting. Saved all document and screenshots on the cloud too just in case.

LOE - I did a letter explaining each document uploaded at the major placeholders and why.
AOR - Aug 30 - all fees paid with a family friend's Canadian bank card. The rate was at 305 (super low - he just decided to help us)
ADR - Sep 22 - Schedule A Background Declaration form (IMM 5669) bearing an original signature. Had to submit my spouse's details all over again.
BIL - Sep 30, completed Oct 16.
I asked about visa office and application status via webform. The response came about a week later that our file was in Accra VO and that I could contact them directly if I so desire. Rude shock, but we took it with faith.
PPR - Nov 9. I don't know the word to describe how I felt. I am yet to recover from it even.

I want to say a BIG THANK YOU to everyone who has contributed valuable information on this thread series. You guys are heroes!
Congrats!

Hello house, please I received my evaluation from WES recently, I noticed that the year my degree was awarded is 2016 instead of 2015, I then decided to check all forms I filled , even the application I sent to my school, and it's 2015 I wrote. I sent a mail to WES, though they ve not replied. Will this error have a negative impact if left unresolved now or in the near future.
I have the same issue. On my ECA the year stated is 2016 whereas I graduated in 2019 because I had some courses I deferred. I hope it would not affect my EE application in the future..

Congratulations to all you got ITA..

I'll like to ask please. I intend entering the pool as my ECA is ready while I'm waiting for my IELTS results.

However, my spouse has not been able to do her ECA as the senate of her school is yet to approve her results.

What do you suggest here? Should I still go ahead or wait for her results to be ready?

Thanks you
