Where are the Awolowo ranches now? He's actually making the excuses. You're jumping into a conversation without knowing the basics.
In a country as diverse as Nigeria, each region is better off focusing on their areas of comparative strength and advantage
Ranching disease resistant breeds of cattle will probably triple the cost compared to those coming from the north. So how's that a sensible model.
The issue like I raised is not greed or low production as you both erroneously posit but the high cost across the entire economic landscape. You can't expect cattle rearing/ breeding to be an exception.
A big sized cow that went for about 400k as at 2023 is over a million today. If the cow was from a ranch, do you think the price will also remain unchanged since 2023 given the fact that all other inputs including some imported ones would have also seen a jump in price?
You can't cut your nose to spite your face just because you want to prove a point

You keep running around in circles in an infantile attempt to sound intelligent but many on here see totally the opposite.

Which sane human will ask for the negation of ranching in preference for tumultuous free range nomadic cattle rearing with its perennial hazardous conflicts with farmers,cattle rustling and rampant inefficiencies.

How many developed countries ofcthe world do you see operating the kind of dysfunctional cattle breeding system we operate......these countries have mastered the ranching technique to become the most efficient agric system and business model......efficient ranching techniques will bring about far better output than the nomadic system,better output will lead to more beef and more beef means cheaper food for nigerians.

Take poultry for instance,birds reared in a poultry system yield more output than the free range local breeds you see around.....you always hypocritically want to criticise tinubu at every turn no matter how ridiculously ilogical you sound.

My simple question was how is the high cost of beef justified considering the breeding technique we are used to,u still haven't been able to give a concise argument rather than continuous ranting.

binary123:
did you know the cost of feeding these birds for 7 months.how are you sure they will survive?

Cockerell can survive on regular food,I do see them around alot

I knew this guy was going to win the primaries,has oredo on lock down and a thorn i. Obaseki's flesh during the last elections.....but why oshiomole noh wan settle ize iyamu,the man don try nah.

DomPerignon:
My friend you know GEJ will edge Obi to last place if this news of GEJ contesting is true

What I see is that the next elections may be an all southern affair with Amaexhi clinching the ADC ticket .

This will see to Tinubu, GEJ, Amaexhi and Giringori .

GEJ and Amaexhi will do very well in the northwest .

In the NE it will be down to Tinubu and GEJ.

NC will be between Tinubu and GEJ.

Tinubu will win the SS because them no rate GEJj there by at least 60-70%

SW will be for Tinubu 100%

Nobody go drag SE with your Obi.

At the end, Tinubu will win followed by GEJ and Amaexhi and Obi will come last.

Forget all ur nebulous permutations, gej cant and won't contest,take tbat to the bank,anyone who knows and understands politics knows this.....dont work urself up unnecessarily.

SmartPolician:
11 years later, that man still never get sense

He will be disgraced.

Tinubu will win this election

Its a rumour without substance a lie from the pit of hell and nothing else GEJ can't and won't contest,dont get yourself worked up over nothing

Those chick's will turn to full grown Cockerell in 6 to 7 months......each could be sold 30 to 35k by December,getting 5 of that will be about 150k......its not a bad idea and you arent being forced to vote for the aspirants.

Kukutente23:
What do you mean he can't get out till 2031
Where's that in the laws

If he leaves the apc now he won't be able to get party tixket from another party for the 2027 round of elections.

LagosOrigin:
Not in south east especially in Abia state

Forget it

Wasn't it same SE,OUK and Ben kalu won with APC?noh b3 same SE Nwifuru and mbah dey?

Who be that one wey dey dia back wey resemble that skitmaker wey like to dey chop food with white agbada.

obembet:
They claimed that over 10M members have registered.

Abeg where their office dey for River state make I go collect governorship form

u noh well I swear!

Wotowotoman:
Hope say Desmond Elliot don hear o. No be by force to dey APC and dey complain up and down

He cant leave the apc again to get ticket till 2031 elections.....go read the electoral act......funny how you guys don't even have the basic knowledge of how the system runs and you will be claiming you can redeem Nigeria,how can you change something you don't even understand......noh be juju be that?

Odogwunajos:
Una go complain tire. We are all in this country and will watch how everything will pan out. Y'all said even worse before 2023 😅

You don buy your form,show us ur memebership.....put ur money where your mouth is no be by cho cho cho!!

Streetinvestor2:
All we want is obi to win in 2027 for drug baron to be jailed. We no send other positions

How will your obi become President without support from the structures of other candidates for the other positions......do you even understand how these things work,thats same reason he lost on 23.

peleson1:
Can the NDC adopt fubara as their candidate in case of eventuality?!
Will it be acceptable ?
3 or more parties should come together and adopt fubara as their flag bearer

This will help him be on ballot even if APC wants to do wuruwuru

Too late for fubara,je is stuck in apc and cant get out till 2031 election.....deadline for submission of party register was 10th of may 2026,you have to be a registered member of a party to vote and be voted for.

saintokwuluora:
Obviously you are having nightmare and it will come to pass in reality. In my constituency alone for House of Reps , Onitsha North, six persons have already picked forms and we are on concensus arrangements now. Keep on having a bad dream

Ofcourse In the SE,6×5 is still less than 40

Very reason he called it a regional party and you just justified that

okoloto:
This is an opportunity for apc aggrieved candidates like fubara

No candidate can leave the apc to NDC or any other party to pick ticket for 27 again,the deadline for party registration has been closed and you need to be a member of a party to vote and be voted for,thats why atiku is stuck in ADC and makinde in pdp.

Funny how you people that were shouting real time uploading if results like that was the only clause in the electoral act.....its obvious many of you are so ignorant if the very electoral act you claim to be defending.

Willy2025:
They have sold only 40 forms so far mainly in Abuja and Lagos. Nobody wants to have anything to do with the party even in Peter Obi's Anambra and Seriake Dickson' Bayelsa. People avoid the party like a plague because they already see it as a party of some certain region, whose supporters are very toxic and insult is their trademark. How is Peter going to win a single local government will be a miracle worth studying.

How you take know say nah only 40 forms dem sell

jmoore:
Have you done research on price of cow that you want to import?

No matter what,imported beef will be cheaper than what we have now.....buffalo beef is also an option and is wildly consumed in India,if we can import fish and smuggle poultry which still ends up cheaper than our own locally produced......beef will also be cheaper.

Muhammed Doka is an El rufai apologist and we know this......the north is its own biggest enemy.

You don't even know the name of the animal you killed,is bush meat the name of any animal?....goodluck to you on your kill,that s**t is going nowhere near my kitchen let alone my pot.

Legitiscool:
since when did gej become a new member of pdp

If he is working for tinubu you really think wike Is not involved too in all this

It's all a matter of whether gej contesting favours tinubu which is a plus for wike

All na to share obi votes in SS/se

You don't get it do you? Forget all this your conspiracy theory of some people ganging against your obi that isn't going anywhere though..... gej as it is cant contest in 27 because he isnt a registered member of any political party show us where he was re registered also the turaki faction dont have the legal right after being thrown out by the SC to even sell nomination forms for councillorship let alone presidential, why do yoi think all current pdp candidates are all with the wike faction and everyone is buying forms from them.....this turaki faction just wan do yahoo yahoo.

Kukutente23:
All the excuses you never made when Jonathan was in power all sound so very sensible and logical to you now

Its not my job to defend a govt i didn't support

edogu:
Is the project not too close to the circled path. May be it's not a bridge.

I still dont get it,the lekki ikoyi bridge is no where near the location and what you have in front of ut is a road and not a bridge.

RichDad1:
Did you know how big a capacity this place is and the number of crowds it's going to pull? First the access road through BIS will not be adequate as the road is very small and it'll complicate things for residents.
Secondly, opening an access road on Lekki-Epe Expressway will definitely worsen the traffic along that corridor anytime there's an event. Qlux is a smaller example.
Anyways, I'll be looking forward to the designs and how the developers are hoping to solve the issue.

Underground parking and multi storeyed parking ramps.

kingbee90:
GEJ should please join the race inorder to complete the remaining 4 years of the south & I bet you he'll win due to his past records.

That Togolese man tinubu Amoda Ogunlere Yekini has proven beyond reasonable doubt to be a FAILURE ❌ & the worst president our beloved country has ever had.

You believing this bunkum shows how naive you must be......GEJ can't cintest in the 27 elections again because registration of new party members that can get tickets has closed since yhe 10th of may 2026,lets even concede without accepting the fact......The turaki faction has no legal right to present themselves as pdp exco,even makinde their main backer had to run to apm to declare his ambition,how then can these brigands be saying they are presenting gej......is gej that stupid,tbey should show us the event where GEJ was re registered in the party,is that even possible without any funfair or media publicity.

Whats wrong with this abure man,the man should give up already and go and rest.

Ginger is big business and prices go up during the dry season.

edogu:
Is that project not too close to the road bridge? Well, if the state government is okay with it, who am I to question it. Goodluck to both the investors and the people.

What bridge are you talking about?

AOB1:
Where is the project located?

Behind the palms mall lekki,where you had the first shoprite in Nigeria.

RichDad1:
They have been doing a lot of ground works for while now.
My major concern for this project is access road.

How do you mean access road,whats wrong with the existing lekki epe highway and the access road at the back where you have the palms and lekki British international school?

Kukutente23:
Not everyone can eat what you're eating
So stop using your lifestyle as a gold standard
Historically, the south was never big on cattle production due to the presence of tse tse flies especially in the rainforest belt. That's actually the reason why the Fulani who are the main cattle rearing tribe took to nomadism. If you were paying attention in school you'll know this.
And we're producing beef enough. We even imporr from Niger sometimes to augment. The major issue now is high transport cost and increase in animal feed and veterinary services cost.
So even if you build ranches, cattle will simply become more expensive because believe it or not, ranching is far more expensive than nomadism
So stop blaming states for everything and stop advocating rotten sawa as menu for decent humans

In the backyard sweat houses you attended in the name of schools didn't teach you disease resistant breeds could be introduced and be able to do well in the south,wasn't same done in poultry with development of hybrids like noiler breed domesticated to our peculiar environment and more disease resistant tonthe foreign broiler breeds.

I agree ranching can be more expensive but most ranches would have their own forage and water sources and I remember during the buhari era,his minister for agric at the time was trying to introduce hybrid grass for livestock,that could be grown easily and quicker than our local variety,also most of our cattle feed on offals and grain residue which can be deployed as well such as beans chaff,rice husk,wheat chaff,cassava and yam waste etc.

Transportation you claim but I bet you are pretty short in memory to realise diesel which the trucks for bringing these cattle run on has been unsubsidised for over a decade and prices had always been higher than petrol until recently when pms too got unsubsidised.....why was cattle cheaper then than now... 500k to transport a cow is a big lie and if true,thats the biggest scam ever,I am into logistics and I know what I am talking about.

Why cant the states or LG's build meat processing plants with cold storage,that way you can haul more quantity at same cost down south orbits tinubu that should come build that too?
