Moneyboyz post=128703068]Early last year I was motivated to start a beer distribution business, I did my research bought the land and constructed the building.
Unfortunately for me, I didn't know someone is selling just few blocks to where I acquired the land. Although the competitor was a small scale but I do not want to compete because there is also a coke/pepsi depot right next to it. I've decided to go into manufacturing but I'm not sure what I could do. I need ideas and possible the required capital that would start it.
Please no pure water factory suggestions.
Thank you.

Good evening fellas... I made this post two weeks ago, I was so terrified, was going crazy but thank God for the words of encouragement from you guys. Your kind words and encouragement made me took the bold step After thinking about my life, I decided to do the test; if I perish I perish. It is better than all the sleepless nights and nightmares.
For over a month now my Google searches is 99% related to HIV; the modes of transmission, early signs, late symptoms, prevalence rate in Nigeria, my state, general world stats.
To worsen the whole situation, last week when I was trying to hold myself together, my latest girl called that she's been feeling feverish, vomited 3x or so, she's lost weight and all... I froze. That's all what google fed me as early signs and it's barely 2 months we had sex...
So I woke up one day and fixed today, Friday 10th November for the test come rain come shine. This morning, I woke up, promised myself it must be today. If I have it, I have it already. It's not like the test will put the virus in my system. Just a confirmation.
After all, I've joined some HIV support groups on Facebook and saw many were requesting for a match making. These would be my family at worst, they are humans too!
So I left very early for a mission hospital kilometers away from my house. I got to the place, sneaked in after watching to ensure the coast is clear from anyone that might know me. I asked the gateman and he directed me to where I can get a compulsory patient's card. I got to the office and met no one on duty, so I had to wait. Just as I was waiting, a primary school classmate walked in with her husband, they a planning a wedding and the church directed them for same blood test. "Whick kind wahala be this" I asked myself, I thought no one will see me here today. No wam, we waited together until the card lady entered, we got the card and proceeded to the electronic capturing center.
The woman at the electronic center was reluctant to attend to me that it must be couple that will come for the test, ahhh cou what?? Madam I'm single and I want to do a blood test to know if I'm health for a relationship or not... People come dey laff me. Finally, I was attended to and was directed to financial department. I went and made my payment and was redirected to the electronic capturing center, when i got back, I called on the woman "ma, I'm asked to give u this receipt" she turned, "you?? Your case is different" she said. I was like has she confirmed I'm positive by mere look? How is my case different?
At long last she directed me upstairs, to the test office. Omo, I actually thought they would collect my blood sample and ask me to come back for the test result. I had planned to go take some alcohol before I will come for the rest but no... Korokoro, the lad pricked my hand got and test strip and it was it.... Ma ma I stammered... Like are u seriously doing this now?? Just like when Kalistus ate the poisoned fish, I began to get weak. She began asking me questions, but I was busy watching the test strip until a line began to form at the down side, it was a single line. I was a bit happy but it wasn't over as I heard it might take up to 20 minutes. I burst prayer oo. Just then the lady at the opposite side called to ask my age and all that. Before I could turn back I say the test lady writing Negative. Omo, I jumped out, they called be back to come take my result sheet. I rushed out dancing skelewu as I made my way to the exit gate. My good people I'm Negative to HIV 1$2. [/quote]
All we need now is to work together to see how the nation will move forward. Nigeria as a nation has gone through a lot in recent years. The voices of the youth has been heard through our vote. We are the people.
Cinderella5: I am of the opinion that the men who leave their homes looking for a stranger to sleep with are under a spell, i don't think its normal.
Prostitutes who under any guise collect money to sleep with strangers are possessed.
These two set of people represent the dark world, i only wish they end up marrying themselves but the sad thing is they don't. The guy who has finished all his sperm on prostitutes is likely to end up with a God fearing responsible girl, while the girl whose vjay has lost its elasticity due to commercial sex will end up with a 'good guy'. life is so unfair.
Now between brostitutes and prostitutes, who can we say is responsible for the thriving immoral market?
Inbox me.. I have a book for you on why good girls remain single.
Angelanest: A Nigerian soldier who has been in the northeast region for two years now - has called on the army authorities to consider and rotate soldiers due to increasing rate of deaths of troops. According to him, overstay of gallant soldiers in the region - makes their morale weak in the battlefield.
The soldier urged the army authorities to give their deployment to the northeast a duration so that fresh hands can come and fight against Boko Haram insurgents.
The plea was shared online by the Nigerian Army Depot in Zaria, Kaduna state. Read below;
Morning admin, with heavy heart and grieve in my heart I am writing to you for assistance. I am in north east ( Borno State). This is my two years in this operation and what I experience on first of march this year since my two years in this operation I have never seen it.
For I know in war front care is prerequisite but this one that happened make me thinking because I realize the cause of the rampart death is overstay of soldiers in north east.
This is what I observed in the front line, It makes the morale of troops weak in the battle field, the strength to fight terrorist is lost and the hope is gone. For I am saying this due to my experience, for I can remembered when we first come the moral of troops was so strong that we do pushed this people without fear or thinking behind but as time goes on that's how tidiness started,
No morale, men become weak and that's the beginning of our problem in the battlefield.
Please my short plead is that let Nigerian Army make this operation just like other operation where soldiers are been rotated, at least let there be a rotation even if it take one three times to come.
I wish this my cry go far to reach the right destination. Please let the operation have duration please overstay is killing us. Thanks admin for your effort towards my cry!!

Angelanest: An intending bride has reportedly called of her wedding after she was allegedly humiliated and assaulted by her man in public. According to an online report, the lady was left embarrassed after her fiance poured water on her face and clothes in an eatery because he was angry.
Now, report has it that the lady has called off the wedding which is supposed to hold next month and is strongly standing by her decision.
Olajumoke Fayemi shared the story on Facebook. Read below;
She called off her wedding just few days to the date. She felt humiliated and assaulted. A man she thought she was going to spend the rest of her life with had the effrontery to pour water on her face and clothes because he was angry.
She knew he had a bit of anger problems . But it never occurred to her he could unleash the anger to her publicly. This happened in an eatery while they were having a meeting.
The introduction have been done few months back and invitation cards shared to family, friends ,colleagues and church members.
The wedding comes up ,first week of March. Besides, lot of money have been spent in preparation for the occasion.
Last week, dude invited the babe to meet him in one of the eateries so they could sort out some issues. She came as agreed not knowing that the meeting would be the last between both of them.
Somehow, their were argument between them and dude out of anger poured the water he was drinking on her . She stood speechless, dazed and confused. Somehow, she managed to pull herself together and walked out of the spot with her wet clothes.
She got home broken but made up her mind to discontinue with the marriage. Of course, she didn't waste time to let her mom and sisters know about the strange development. And her decision was to call off the wedding.
Sadly, her mom was not completely in support of her decision but with the backing of her siblings, they were able to convince her . The whole family are backing her. To them ,the marriage is over.
However, dude and family would not take any of that. They have been begging and sending emissaries to her and her family.
The pastor of her church is not left out . He has invited her but she is still holding her ground. No marriage. She is a bit lucky, because she and her family are together in this decision.
liquidlove2018: My name is Bruno.I thanks God for your life because this your site is so impactful. I met Rebecca several years ago, a friend connected us together. We were always going to joints to enjoy ourselves most evening after biz for the day. We have a place where we pick she and her friends, sometimes they meet us at the joint.We both like each and afterward we started seeing each regularly. I couldn’t go to university after my secondary school because of financial challenges. However, this did not deter my ambition to make it in life. I do buy and selling buying and selling. And have been managing since then. After few months of seeing Rebecca she got pregnant for me. Because I loved, when she told me she was pregnant. I took her to see my parents and also we went to see her parent. We eventually did a small traditional where I paid her bride price. Am are still looking forward to the day we will do our white wedding until this happened. From my small business I raised money for my wife to open a small shop for her in front of our house. Because the previous area we lived she was always fighting with our neighbor. What even annoyed me was when I heard the woman calling my wife all sort of name even to the extent of calling her a prostitute. We moved to a new neighborhood, at that time our last baby was 7years old and the first was 11years years old. We had two boys and a girl. Once I close shop each day i try to get home early so i could be with my family. though, we where living in a two rooms face me I face you. But we were happy. I was planning moving to a bigger apartment some years back when I lost my good due to fire outbreak. Was the help of friends and sympathizers that got me back into business. I never had any reason to suspect my wife. She had never complained. We spend beautiful time together especially on Sundays am all around, take them out. I ensure I get home straight every evening after I close shop just to be and play with my kids. They always look forward to my coming home as I also buy them gifts. So I was very shocked when I caught my wife with another man on our matrimonial bed. That fateful day, my neighbour who had privy that the young man been sneaking into my house once my kids and I are off had informed me on phone about his observation. He actually told me his wife was suspecting but told her to mind her business, but when she said the young man was always going into the room and spend time. He was alarmed. Then, he witness it the day he was at home. So, that fateful day. I pretended going to work, but hanged around. So after a while, the call came in, so I waited a few minutes and went home. Low and behold, as I sneaked in to the first room as they left door open to avoid suspicion. I heard my wife voice saying ....

how did this happen?
me who was once a bright young girl with a bright future... now my life is a mess, with so many mistakes from my past. when i was 14, i never in a million years thought my life would be this hell today.
life sometime does not go the way we plan it but that does not mean you can't get out and be the best once again. Remember the past is gone n gone for life, so reviving it will only hurt n drag you back. Focus on the future n work toward it. If you need someone to talk to you can PM me. Everything will soon be ok.
irynterri: SERMON The parable of the rich man and Lazarus is argued by many to be a true life story, because unlike others a character was named. There are several lessons to be learned from this wonderful story told by Our Lord and they include the following: 1. MATERIAL WEALTH IS NOT ALWAYS A SIGN THAT YOU ARE ON THE RIGHT PATH OF SALVATION : contrary to claims of some prosperity preachers, this story comes to show that you being wealthy does not mean you are on the right path with God. The Pharisees of Jesus' time were money loving people who believed been wealthy was a sign your worship was acceptable to God. Wealth does not only come from God, you can get money from the devil, you can get money from cheating others , you can get from falsifying your scales, but good wealth come from God and more important to him is what you do with it, for to whom more is given, more is expected. Hence,stop envying those around you who are rich without following the way of the Father,for what lies ahead of them you do not Know and might not wish to partake in it, stop questioning God when you see a poor righteous man, for what lies ahead of him is the greatest that can happen to any mortal,remember the earth and its wealth is not our home, we all will leave here one day. BEEN POOR DOES NOT MEAN GOD HATES YOU.
2. THE SIN OF THE RICH MAN The sin of the rich man was not loving his neighbor like himself. Your neighbor is any one around you, whether rich or poor, male or female, believer or non-believer. Show all love and help all in need. Jesus did not accuse him of not helping anyone at all, he was accused of not helping the Beggar at his gate. So many of us today do the most abominable things to those who we feel are not in our social status around us, look around in churches and you can easily spot who the house girl is in a family, some rich families make their house helps sleep on the bare floor and eat spoilt food. O how vile the fruit we bear are! A tree is known by its fruit, does who produce sweet fruits are good and bad fruits are bad. So ask your yourself what sort of fruit do I produce? Start by using the litmus test of how you treat does who cannot pay you back. Do you throw feasts for your rich friends and ignore your parents need?, do you throw feasts and ignore the plea of a friend in need of a loan?
IS THIS ONLY ABOUT MATERIAL WEALTH? No, it is whatever you are blessed with. You are blessed with the gift of preaching,you preach far and wide but you do not preach to your children, siblings to change from their sinful ways. In whatever measure you have, give to the poor (those who don't have) for the Good Lord is a friend and lover of the poor.
THE BROTHERS OF THE RICH MAN these are doubting Thomas. Those who have hardened their hearts and minds against life after death. They see themselves to be intelligent simply because they seem to differ. The live as though they will live forever. They say to themselves, look at all the money I have through my hard work yet this believer who claims his Bible told him he will be given all he asks for is poor. This is the ideology of the Rich man's brothers that is why the rich man requested for a dead man to go back to them because it is only then they would believe. To all who doubt the existence of an after life, we pray to God for their hearts to be open before it is too late. Thanks for reading this,kindly share your contribution Cc Lalasticlala

ChangeIsCostant: A lady is filled with thanks to God after her horrifying encounter with a snake while returning from work with her husband in his car. The woman whose baby was in the back seat - revealed that when she wanted to come out from the vehicle, she saw a big black snake waiting for her on the ground. Out of her instinct, the lady quickly closed the door just when the snake wanted to enter the vehicle as she smashed the reptile to death.... Read her words below;
On that faithful evening, le boo came to carry me from my place of work, it was few minutes past 5pm. I sat at the front seat just beside him, while my baby was sleeping peacefully at the back. We gisted on our way, laughed, chop suya based on logistics all the way. Eventually we drive reach house, make I open door come down from motor. Na long hissing I hear, I decide to take another look before dropping my leg which was by this time suspended on air. My sisters lo and behold na big black snake I see, set and ready to attack.
The way I take draw my leg put back inside motor na only God fit explain am. Omo! My head was spinning fast as I quickly drag the handle of the motor make I close the door, the snake see me o, e know wetin I wan do o, na so e raise body spear come meet me inside motor. But my God who is faster than the fastest snake helped me lock the door just before it could enter the car.
I was shouting and telling hubby to drive back that there is a snake and the snake spear towards me inside the car but my hubby who takes everything as a joke thought I was joking, he started laughing and saying if snake hears sounds it runs away not to talk of a car whose noise is louder than that of a human and that even if it does not run that snake does not pursue someone inside car that what did I do wrong that snake would spear to come and meet me. Eventually he turned around to my direction to see if there was anything there and then he screamed.
"Baby it's there o, don't open your door o" come see me inside the motor, I Donn jump go back seat, carry my baby pass my husband side fly commot for the motor. Little did I know that the devil had already been defeated. When the snake speared to me inside the car, it succeeded in entering with its ugly head but when I locked the door I also succeeded in closing its head in between.
So it's head was inside with its mouth wide opened ready to bite while it's body was outside. God had killed it for me. Everyday I still celebrate my God who did this miracle for me........
