BusinessAn Advice For The Employed And Unemployed Youth. by JikanBaura(op): 11:17am On Jul 04, 2017
THE HIDDEN TREASURE

I am sure lovers of fables must have heard this beautiful story that I am about to tell. Whether you have heard the story or not, just spare me a few minutes and read it.

I am re-telling it, not just to entertain you, but to draw a great lesson that we need at this time.

A rich old farmer, who felt that he had not many more days to live, was very worried about his sons and his legacy.

He knew his sons to be quite lazy, and knew that upon his death, they will quickly sell off his lands and properties, and proceed to squander the money. He also knew that poverty and suffering will eventually visit them and there will be no one to help them.

So he called his sons to his bedside.

“My sons,” he said, “heed what I have to say to you. Do not on any account part with the estate that has belonged to our family for so many generations. Somewhere on it is hidden a rich treasure. I have forgotten the exact spot I hid it, but it is there, and you will surely find it. Spare no energy and leave no spot unturned in your search.”

The father died, and no sooner was he in his grave than the sons set to work digging with all their might, turning up every foot of ground with their spades, and going over the whole farm two or three times. They know their father to be an upright and honest man, and they know that if he said there is a treasure in the land, then it certainly must be there.

When they got tired, the eldest son advised them to plant some crops in the farm, since it is already tilled, and that after harvest, they will continue the search.

No hidden gold did they find; but at harvest time, they noticed that they had the best yield in town, because of the thoroughness with which they tilled the ground.

They pocketed a rich profit far greater than that of any of their neighbors.

And then it struck the eldest one like a bolt of lightning, he gathered his brothers and broke down in tears, “ Dear brothers, our father truly is an upright and honest man, he did not lie to us, and indeed, there is much treasure in the land. This harvest is the treasure. Our father in his wisdom, knew us to be lazy, and his parable was the only way to stop us from destroying his legacy, and to help us discover true wealth in hardwork” .

And so the brothers learnt their lessons, and prospered. They only regretted not having the opportunity to thank their father.

Nigerian youths… I feel like the old man is talking to us. His sons, are like the Nigerian youths today. Strong, healthy, but looking elsewhere for treasure, instead of their own backyard.
Let me ask you a question, If you were born in the days of our great, great, great, grand-fathers, when there was no government or big corporations to provide blue collar jobs, will you die of hunger? Will you go to your king and complain of unemployment?

No you will not, because the concept of slave labour or salaried work, was not yet fully developed. Then you were a free born, and a son of the soil. You will simply choose any career that suits you, learn it under your father or as an apprentice, and proceed to build your life as you like.

Magic Formula ! There was nothing like unemployment in those days. You could be a farmer and produce for your family. You could farm more than your personal needs, and build groundnut pyramids or huge yam barns.

Your neighbor could be a trader, and sell the groundnuts for you. Or maybe you could be a hunter, or a fisher man or whatever you desire.

Nigerian youths, you are not slaves. Stop thinking like a slave. Why are you waiting for the government, or for one big company to employ you, and then tell you exactly how to live your life?

Sorry, I have nothing against getting employed, if you have a good job, that’s great. I too have many employees, who I cherish and treat very well. But I have everything against folding your hands waiting and crying for job.

Maybe you think this is just theory, and not very practical. So let me give you some examples.

Jasper Chidera from Imo state, is still in his twenties, he made N1 million from cucumber farming in 2 months. Innocent Mokidi is an accounting graduate from Edo state. In 2013, he quit his job to start poultry farming with 1000 birds. Today, his Agri-business is worth N6million, an amount he couldn’t have saved from his paid employment. What about 28-year old Annie Nyaga. This beautiful young lady quit her job to start watermelon farming, according to her, she made over $5000 in 2016.

I can go on and on to mention names, but am sure you can just google it yourself, and see more success stories.

So the moral of my story today is simple. Delete the word unemployment from your mind, and employ yourself. And please stop giving excuses. There is no excuse for any man/woman that truly wants to use his creative abilities to work. But a lazy mind will have 1000 excuses not to work. Don’t think that I don’t understand, I do. I am also not exonerating the government, but will you rather fold your hands and bemoan your fate? Don't you know that poverty has pain? When a lazy man covers himself, poverty will uncover him.

Maybe you wonder that you don’t have land to engage in Agriculture. You have 2 options, you can go back to your father’s land and start from there, of course this will be a horrible idea for some people, but I know a girl that returned from Lagos to Delta state and started Quail farming, she is worth millions today.

The other option you have, is to lease land. I also know a farmer who leased about 6 hectares of land on the outskirts of lagos. He leased each hectare at N20,000 per year. Remember that a hectare of land is 15 plots. So this is quite cheap, and almost anyone can afford this.

So get busy today, and start thinking of what you can do for yourself. Clean your certificates very well, in fact laminate it properly, and then just shelf it and simply forget about it for now. It is a shameful thing to have your certificate, and still go about begging for food, rent, etc.. Don't dehumanize yourself. There is dignity in labour, if you can at least feed yourself and your family, you will have your self-esteem intact.

In Millionaires Academy, it is our firm belief that although material resources like Money, is always limited, creative and human resources are unlimited.

You need to realize that wealth is not just physical money, ideas and creativity is also wealth. A single idea, can transform you from a pauper to a millionaire. That is why we expose young people to hundreds of great ideas that can transform their life.

And with the great transformation we are witnessing regularly, I can only agree that the problem of Nigeria is not a POVERTY OF RESOURCES, BUT A POVERTY OF IDEAS.

PoliticsIgbos Storm Kanu’s Compound Demanding For Biafra by JikanBaura(op): 9:28am On Jun 29, 2017
Thousands of pro-Biafra agitators, on Wednesday, stormed the compound of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and Director of London based radio Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, in Isiama Afaraukwu Ibeku, Umuahia in Abia state, demanding for the Republic of Biafra.


In several video clips which has gone viral on social media, thousands of people with Biafran flag were heard chanting “All we are saying, Give us Biafra”.


Nnamdi Kanu’s compound is just a stone throw away from the Abia State Government House in Umuahia.


The development, which is not the first mass gathering of pro-Biafra agitators in Kanu’s compound, is coming two months after the IPOB leader regained freedom after spending 18 months in detention.


Recall that Justice Binta Nyako of a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja had granted bail to Kanu on health grounds and ordered him not to grant press interviews and avoid being seen in a crowd of more than 10 people.


The IPOB leader was freed after meeting the bail conditions but he has not only addressed hundreds of his supporters but has also granted media interviews where he declared that the coming of the Republic of Biafra was imminent.




Chaiiiii this is serious.

PoliticsRe: Is It Right For President Buhari To Address The Nation In Hausa? by JikanBaura(m): 1:26am On Jun 26, 2017
Speaking English is not by force,Here in North we only 30percent of us understand it. Hausa language is Nigeria's most spoken native language,understood by 100million+ Nigerians.

Buhari had always spoken in hausa and will continue to do so, deal with it. It's will be awkward for a Hausa to speak to his fellow Hausawa in language non other than Hausa (which majority of us don't give a Bleep about ) Better go learn hausa cuz Hausawa never and will never ever dump their language for another man language.

Ask any Igbo,Hausa Yoruba who school in North with which language wore he taught in school/university he will tell you with Hausa and English,maybe will little English if he attended private school.

I have talk about Biafra with a many of my igbos Friends from school and market they just laugh and make jokes of it.

Like the eze said: What igbos want is to address injustice, to have fairness, fair share of whatever. To have that sense of belonging in the country. I hear a lots of people on net talking about Resurrection and True federalism. If I don't misunderstand this. they want control of their resources. I think that a better solution than to split Nigeria. we are strong and relevant in Africa and to the rest of the world cuz of our population. let's not destroy ourselves.

PoliticsKano Rep Supports Northern Youths On Ultimatum. by JikanBaura(op): 8:29am On Jun 12, 2017
A member of the House of Representatives from Kano State has supported the call by the Coalition of Northern Youths that all the Igbo should vacate northern Nigeria before October.


Rep Aminu Suleiman, who chairs the House Committee on Tertiary Education, said people from eastern part of the country could not hold Nigeria to ransom through their secession threats and other activities.
“I have read the statement of the Northern Youths Coalition. I may not completely say I share their vision 100 per cent; but they have found a supporter in me, because the people of eastern Nigeria have taken this country to ransom.


“They have been causing serious problems to this country; they caused the civil war, which brought backwardness in this country. They have been using provocation to attract more attention than other parts of the country,” he said.
The lawmaker also condemned some northern elite, especially the Kaduna State Governor, Nasir el-Rufai, for ordering the arrest of the northern youths.
“People like el-Rufai just played to the gallery. I condemn him entirely for coming out to issue arrest warrant against the northern youths. Where was el-Rufai when IPOB and other secessionist groups in the South East were calling for secession?


Don’t they have governors? Don’t they have elders? Why didn’t they caution them?” he asked.

Igbos who want to stay in North we the good people of North not the jobless trouble seeking ones will help you stay and those of you who really want BIAFRA we will help them have their Biafra, but how? For your safety and to have what u need (a better NIGERIA or a more peaceful BIAFRA) you should heed to the warning and leave the north weather you want (NIGERIA OR BIAFRA) go back to your region. if succeed in having (BIAFRA) which I'm certain u would, and if unfortunately u don't then u can develop ur region for good and maybe in the feature u will have BIAFRA. Nigeria will surely die one day. and if u continue to be stubborn and decided to stay where you are not wanted, where you are hated by the majority .then stay and face the consequences . Thank you...
