This is lovely. I've always liked Cosmas Maduka (Coscharis') old school philosophy of investing and making money, NOT the younger criminal hard drug barons, dealers and drug couriers in methamphetamine, heroin, fake malt and fake pharmaceutical drugs and other fake products makers who falsely claim to be legit Naira millionaires and billionaires while they have killed people through the sale of those fake and crappy products.

On the other hand, I read late last year that Kano has the largest single rice producing company or mill in Nigeria. Then if the rice mill in Ikorodu, Lagos State states production with the bulk of it's paddy rice coming from Niger State, and nearby states according to the deal signed by both Lagos and Niger States recently, then the Lagos-owned rice hub would be the LARGEST rice processing mill in the entire West Africa.

Kudos to Cosmas Maduka on his achievements in the agribusiness space here.

Politics › Re: Dangote Refunery Now Buying Crude Oil From The US by Konquest: 1:38am On May 19, 2024*

Akinomoakin021:
Nigeria’s giant new oil refinery Dangote, the largest in Africa, is set to import crude from the US in the coming months, a sign of just how competitive American barrels have become in the global market.

Trafigura Group sold 2 million barrels of WTI Midland to Dangote refinery for end-February delivery, said traders with knowledge of the matter. This is the first time that the giant refinery has purchased non-Nigerian crude, traders said.

Booming US oil supply over the past decade or so has transformed the global market, reaching as far afield as Asia. Nigeria’s economy is dependent on petroleum exports, meaning the deliveries from across the Atlantic are telling.

The new 650,000 barrel-a-day oil refinery, owned by Aliko Dangote, Africa’s richest person, started operations earlier this month. It is targeting an initial processing rate of 350,000 barrels a day before ramping up toward its full capacity.

The refinery is sourcing domestic crude under a supply deal with the trading arm of the state company Nigerian National Petroleum Co. The first cargo that arrived at the plant last month was Nigeria’s Agbami crude, sold by a trading unit of Shell Plc. This was followed by more Nigerian barrels including the nation’s Amenam, Bonny Light and CJ Blend streams.

Trafigura Group keeps getting big ticket deals.

West Texas Intermediate, WTI is cheaper than Nigeria's Bonny Light crude or Brent. Dangote is simply looking after his bottom line. If Nigeria gives him a better deal he will dump WTI. It's just business, people.

@Bintdawood,

That's truly impressive. Egusi (melon) with Tuwon shinkafa... What vegetable(s) was used to make that Egusi soup? Is it Zogale (Moringa) or what? I never knew that some of you folks in Northern Nigeria add Egusi to your soups. While traveling internationally, I like to sample unique cuisines from around the cultures I come in contact with. It'd love to try your Tuwon shinkafa and Egusi combo on any of my leisure travels to the North.

Bintdawood:
Kosai in Hausa, Akara in pidgin English [Yoruba]😀

The picture of the Kosai you made with peanut oil shows it's indeed well made and I like the way the smell usually wafts through the air to embrace the person frying it, the kitchen and dining room, etc.

Just a quick NOTE here though, and I want YOU to re-edit the WRONG information in your post that has been there since April 2024. Let me school you with some insightful evidence.

YES, the fried beans delicacy is called Kosai in Hausa language, even right up to the Northern parts of Ghana (Gonja) due to the influence of long-distance Hausa traders (or the assimilated Agalawa or Nigeriene Tuareg caravan traders of Katsina and Kano in Hausaland) in that area of Ghana.

But "Akara" is an original Yoruba word for fried bean cake NOT Pidgin English, and Akara is even CLEARLY listed in the first ever Yoruba to English dictionary of 1833. You can easily download a FREE PDF copy of the oldest Yoruba to English dictionary via a Google Search online. A lot of Yoruba words are being used as loan words (borrowed) by some other ethnic groups and folks in Nigeria due to their interactions as a result of British Colonialism, such as "Egusi" and "Oga" which are also listed in the same 1833 Yoruba to English dictionary. But these Yoruba loan words CANNOT be found in the oldest dictionaries of these other ethnic groups indicating that they borrowed it from the Yorubas. These ignorant younger ones from some of these ethnic groups like the Ibos had to be shown these CLEAR facts recently in 2024 when they started claiming that Egusi is a word from there ethnic group but knowledgeable Yoruba folks uploaded clear screenshot and documents showing that Egusi is not just a Yoruba word but has been eaten for centuries as a soup thickener.

Aka-ra (simply means to COUNT and BUY)
Aka (Count) Ra (Buy). The process of counting and buying the fried bean cakes.

Alubosa for instance is a loan word used by Yorubas just like Albasa is a loan word used by Hausas but which is of Arabic origin. There are some Yoruba words that also have Arabic loan derivatives and are used interchangeably. This is a result of the strong presence of Islam in Yorubaland (Oyo Empire) for over 500 years now after it was brought by Islamic traders and preachers from Mali Empire, long before Uthman Danfodio's great grand parents were even born. So, it is always good to keep these facts in mind about the origins of words.

Hope that helps.

I see a lot of relentless ethnic insults on Linda Ikeji's blog and other Ibo-owned blogs targeted at other Nigerian ethnicities in the comments sections and absolutely NOTHING is done to caution the insidious culprits.

The problem with NL still has to do with the free registration process using free throwaway emails which makes it easy for ethnic bigots and trolls and those who have been banned to re-register within 2 minutes and continue the online attacks. They even create OR new accounts containing insults to the Moderators and ethnic slurs.

Did you know that putting slices of onions in the oil while frying the dodo, takes the aroma and taste to a whole new level?
Then if you want to take it a notch higher, add chopped up scotch bonnet pepper.
But you have to take them out of the oil before they get completely burnt.
You just want them to give their flavour to the plantains.

Balangu is what they call sheep meat, right?

Not all kilishi I've had tasted good though.

You seem to have a great since of adventure right here... You're the type of person who would like to go on leisure travels around exotic sceneries or places just for the new experience. I've NEVER done the frying of slices of onions and scotch bonnet pepper in the vegetable oil for dodo. I'll give it a try when next I want to have dodo for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

Indeed, different styles of cooking exist based on individual differences and personal experiences, so, those are some of the reasons why
some of the Abuja kilishi that you had not taste good. You know what Mariangeles? Why don't you try making your own well-spiced kilishi since you like it. I'm sure there are recipes online that would give you deep insights into how to make it at less cost. Well it's gonna cost you some of your time to prepare but it's worth giving it a shot.

Our official language as a country is English, we are schooled in English Language from primary to tertiary education, our local newspapers are written in English Language, our national news is broadcast in English Language on most TV stations. The least we can do as a people is communicate in basic and simple terms that are clear and easy enough to understand.

I wasn't joking when I said that entire post induced a headache and I am still wondering how he passed IELTS. The British government shouldn't even be subjecting us to IELTS having colonised us and for the reasons I gave above, but people like the OP's friend give them cause to.

@chicfarmer,

Indeed, you hit the spot... I like some of the adjectives you used to qualify Green Sands Shandy here.

"The taste was simply UNMATCHED" like you stated.

It was in the very early 1980s that I first drank it and it's taste OR recipe hasn't been replicated anywhere that I know of. It had a kind of "Ginger Ale" effect... But much deeper.
TRUE that! With a much larger population worldwide now, any company that relaunches Green Sands Shandy will make billions in profits for investors tbh.

The monochrome green label on the brown bottle was also irresistible. The monochrome green color of NL too is also one of the things that subconciously attracted me to this discussion forum since 2005... grin

I'm curious though, what state were you based in when you had that drink?... I was wondering whether Green Sands Shandy was widely available in all the then 19 states of Nigeria or it was it only limited to Lagos and a few states of Nigeria back in the 1980s.

Mirinda is actually a product from the stable of Pepsi. Goldspot is from a different soft drinks company as well.

casualobserver:
You really are daft…no surprise as you have history of daft commentary. Learn to read properly. Meghan claimed she has Nigerian DNA. Ibos and some yorubas started fighting over whether she is Ibo or Yoruba. Improve your English comprehension, nowhere did I say Nigerians were claiming she is Nigerian, I specifically said in my post that Meghan claimed to be a Nigerian.

@casualobserver,

It's nice you brought this convo up. It was quite amusing seeing some uninformed youngsters online arguing ridiculously over the ethnic group of Meghan. She was simply given 3 suggested Nigerian ethnic names at a session anchored by Modupe Abudu, and some of the Ibos especially went about claiming her because an Ibo name was suggested first at that session which was used then used in the newspaper headline, when infact, its only a percentage result of "43 percent" that she has without an ethnic group named. A Journalist with one of the British tabloids also noted the fact that Nigeria has many ethnic groups, so, Meghan's test result doesn't say which one but only gave percentages.

I also have a vast knowledge of ancestral DNA testing methodologies right from the late 1990s right till this moment in 2024.

There's even NOTHING like "Nigerian DNA."
In ancestry DNA testings, what we have are GENETIC MARKERS that are associated with specific groups currently living in specific regions of Africa, Europe, Asia, etc.

I stated this fact on one of the NL threads that hit the front page on Meghan being given Nigerian ethnic names that Meghan's 43 percent Nigerian result from the ancestry DNA testing company she used DOESN'T say what ethnic groups she has links with in Nigeria!

I ALSO must CLEARLY emphasize here that one of the two likely DNA testing companies she got her result from that use percentages in their results (of which Ancestry DNA is one of them), ONLY group tested folks into regional classifications such as Nigeria Region (which also covers Niger Republic and parts of Chad Republic!). Other regional classifications are Benin/Togo, Ivory Coast/Ghana, Mali, Cameroon/Congo, etc.

So, Meghan's ancestry could also be from Niger Republic and parts of Chad in addition to Nigeria since enslaved people were also taken from those places especially during the Hausa Civil Wars of the 1700s and the criminal so-called Fulani jihad where there was a spike in the number of enslaved Hausas, Kanuris, and Nupes by the Fulanis who captured and sold even Muslims in exchange for weapons such as muskets. Even Uthman Dan Fodio's brother, Abdulahi became disillusioned because the jihad had deviated from the original objectives and become an enterprise where other non-Fulani Muslims were being sold into plantation slavery across the Sahara desert and the Atlantic.

So, enslaved Hausas of Niger Republic and Nigeria, Kanuris, and other minority ethnicities in the Middle Belt of Nigeria were sold and deported on slave ships across the Atlantic Ocean, some were sold in the Maghreb (Berber/Arab North Africa), and others were sold via the Ottoman Empire.

The best bet to get a specific ethnicity in Africa for Meghan would be for her to do a MATRICLAN test by using a DNA testing company called AfricanAncestry based in the U.S. to know what specific ethnic group and country in Africa her maternal lineage right from the first female that landed in her mother's country (U.S.A) comes from since genetic materials (or genetic markers) are transfered from mother to daughter and are unchanged from one generation to another. The other test to find out ones paternal lineage leading to Africa, Europe, or Asia, is called. PATRICLAN test. So, the genetic markers that are passed on from father to son are unchanged from generation to generation.

The famous Judge Glenda Hatchett and Quad Webb (of Sister Circle) for instance are two prominent African-American women that used the AfricanAncestry testing company to locate their MATERNAL lineage to the Yoruba people of Nigeria based on a genetic marker that is found ONLY in Yoruba woman (and Hausa women as well). That marker is passed on from generation to generation of females.

Nigeria is a multicultural country with 250 ethnic groups and many REGIONAL differences in terms of cultural values, religious beliefs and etiquettes. It's the same with France and the UK that also have regional differences and languages or dialects that vary from the urban cities to the country sides and small villages.
