But when he uses 12 billion dollars to buy a gold plated shoe, we would scream corruption. You see how we are our own problems in Nigeria! People go to church to worship God, not to look at the shoes prominent people wear. Please get a life, @op.
And to think this article rather graced Nairaland Frontpage means there is serious problems in this country.

Please @Op, I would like to know if the size of your poultry can take 250 birds successfully. Thanks

Please my dear op, just accept this in good fate and go search for a better job. In this present day Nigeria, you won't be that type of worker that sues his/her employer and expect me to recruit you in my own company. You could try that in France, US or Britain.
If you think you will like to work somewhere again, just swallow the issue maturedly and move on. So much injustices in the workplace but it shouldn't have to be you that would bear the brunt by blowing the whistle. My 1kobo

The guy is right to comment on such. If the Innoson guy thinks his cars are perfect enough, he should not have the taste for other ones. He could design one of his cars to his taste, but it is bad PR for him to drive a competitor's car.
Steve Jobs would not use anything less than Apple because he believes other products are inferior. Charity they say, begins at home.

I'd like to know how authentic these online courses are in today's Nigeria (especially if it is NUC approved) and do employers actually recognise it?
Likewise are we going to actually interact with lectures and course materials with our mobile devices and Opera mini, normal subscription or do we need desktop or better still, a CBT centre before we can get to lectures.

Poultry is an high risk venture as you can loose all your chickens in one day. Apart from the stress of management, the cost of running a basic farm is on the high side. I think Fisheries has more profit these days Even experienced poultry farmers will tell you .

Don't you have a smaller version of this? Looks fantastic but pricey jaare abeg. You should have modular small scale units for the average farmer, which may not even have all the bells and whistles listed.

Lmao.. You're a trip man, don't take this too personal... aight? Also, you need to get off that ish you're smoking. Did you say sustainable? Sustainable in what aspect? Economically? Financially? Environmentally? Like what are you talking about? I really pity you because you're unexposed to say the least, don't argue on what you know nothing about. Heed to your own advice and leave those words better unsaid. However, should you decide to debate this topic, I am more than ready to educate you tonight. Deuces.

I know you are defending your state and all, but it's just sad how you often get it wrong politically and strategy wise. How could a tribe so strong be defeated when just their access to food was cut off? Now when you ought to get it right, it's a lopsided idea that ensues.
Though I am tempted, yet I would not say more like you are expecting, but I wish you could see better.

Did I say this is Brazil? What the hell is agriculturist? Shut the Fvck up!! Who cares what you are ? Do you know what I am? Where do you get the bvllshit about Chicken and Christmas. I really do not have patience for Stvpid talk. No one gives a shit about what you are !! If you have any points to make make them without the biography.
Did you read my post before trying to educate me about how government projects are faring? Do you even understand what I am saying before the geography lesson.

manny4life:
This is the second time you're talking off point without listening to yourself... How do you mean by "Everyday is not Christmas"? Even if 50% of Nigeria 150+ million citizens are the supposed market for poultry, that's a potential market right there. Even if this company constantly produced everyday, nonstop, they wouldn't satisfy the need of 5% of the market. Don't worry your little head, they have their plans all set to go... More farms will spring up and diversify, in the meantime, don't worry about it.

I thought you two were rational people but it is obvious. I should have known better than getting down to your level. I don't have much to say again, as we all know how these things swell your ego. Taking chicken farm personal like kilode...
I could carefully analyze how the idea may not be sustainable as planned, but why bother? Well, I hope you both have a good time wanking towards the idea of your modern chicken utopia. Some words are better left unsaid.

omonnakoda:
I don't see much wrong with it conceptually if anything 15 billion is too small though I would rather it was in the private sector or PPP. Citizens should demand more information about ownership structure and management but I am sure there are much bigger project in Brazil. I doubt they are government run

This is not Brazil, my brother. I am an agriculturist and this thing maxes out here in Nigeria in the long run. Check out other single produce agricultural projects executed by the government in time past and research on how they are faring today. Everyday is not Christmas that people will decide to eat chickens and eggs enmass. If it were complemented with fisheries, snails and vegetables, could have been a perfect project, given its location.

I am sure the igbos would be so proud of this project. I don't know who advises these people to take decisions without careful thought. If the state had 15 billion to spare for agricultural project, why splurge it on just poultry?
In these days of Lassa fever, bird flu and co, your farm is just one virus away from utter collapse. I am sure they just told him poultry is the most profitable agribusiness and he said oya now, let's do It.
Anyway, I wish you good luck with your 15 billion naira poultry project because it's just what you need at this point, especially if managed by Nigerians that are known to be maintainance monsters.

Oya now, Well-done

What is this one saying? I'm sure it's what they taught you in Sunday school that people should not put lock on their phones. Please this is early 2016, so wake up and put all these nazi morality behind you.

Please get off the Internet if you want to be righteous abeg and let us hear word. Like as if the more Internet you get helps you to visit more Christian websites and stream services live. Stuffs like these are not meant for people like you. Iraanu!
Meanwhile to the professionals out there, please how can I get the IMEI tweak to work on my Samsung Galaxy Core? I tweaked the imei and it worked for one day, since then the Internet signal refused to show with the blackberry.net apn ever again. Please what can I do?

Better not waste your time teaching Akwa Ibom peeps how to be entrepreneurs. I have been there, done that. It's just not their thing!

How much are they being sold per one? Can you send to other states?

I just stumbled on this interesting thread. Please who has the technology on the bag farming now? I am very sure of the soiless fodder technology through hydroponics in Nigeria. I have even gone for the training in Abeokuta this December. It is hosted by Bic farms Nigeria. Please any useful info on the bag system?
And what are the contents of the CDS please? Can we also get too? Thanks ;DI just stumbled on this interesting thread. Please who has the technology on the bag farming now?

This is just stupidity on the Internet. We are playing the game of police operational vehicles against tribes when in the real sense, we don't have adequate security for our lives and properties, no matter where we live.
I won't be surprised if our senators will be deliberating on Netflix censoring this year because we are too stupid to canvas for the issues that truly affect all of us, even by ourselves.

Hyeladzura1218:
I think that's a good idea but I only have one problem, I don't know anyone living there

Send a private message to my profile. I will help

Hyeladzura1218:
I speak French but not so well, do you know any housing agent I can get in contact with that can help

It's better to get house directly as Cotonou people are fond of exploiting Nigerians. It's better you get the help of your fellow Nigerians living there. Get across privately.

Hyeladzura1218:
Hi, I am thinking of relocating to Cotonou permanently and would really love feedback on the price of a relatively cheap self contain apartment and how to get a minimum wage job. I need this information because I have no family and the cost of living in Nigeria is too high, any feedback I can get will be very helpful

Remember that they speak French there, so it is not easy as an English speaker to get jobs like it would be here. If you can speak French, it would be better for you. Houses are according to your pocket

omojesu202:
where please?

Make a list of all the secondary schools within your vicinity and beyond, then do appropriate photography or soft binding. Mention that you can teach Geography at all levels in your application letter.

Go and write an application letter and attach your CV to teach Geography at the top secondary schools in Owerri now

Haters will just keep hating no matter what. Someone used his hard earned money to fulfill a long time promise to his God and yet you are busy bitting off the tips of your fingers. He never asked for your donation, yet these same people will not bat an eye when Olamide buys an Honda 2016 model for example.
If you really want to be moral about social justice, go and make your own money then spend it taking care of the world's poor, rather than hate on something doing his own thing.

tim26will:
Can you listen to yourself?
You better don't nurse falling into this kind of situation and thinking of prisoner exchange for your escape.
ITS DEAD BODY EXCHANGE WILL BE MORE REALISTIC OOOOO.
So better listen and be wise.

When you comment on the Internet, do so with wisdom, because you don't know who you may be referring to. I am only concerned about my fellow citizens as a concerned Nigerian.

Are you an android app developer?

I suggest the government should also create stricter laws for Malaysians living in Nigeria, (immediate indictment for expired visas for one) if possible, frame them up and arrest them so as to imprison them and use them for prisoner exchange for cases like this in future.
We can't just fold our hands and watch our fellow citizens being hung at the gallows. Irrespective of what they have done, they are Nigerians like everyone of us.

Thank God for increasing Internet penetration, Nigerians are now coming online to bring issues worth considering into limelight. From videos of policemen receiving bribes to aircraft using ladder to disembark, it would seem as if nothing escapes the all-seeing eye of the Internet.
Stories of actual events by real people, not the biased view of a journalist are very vital for creating a revolution around the world. What does this offer us? We should not just sit down and comment on these matters and go on with our lives. We ought to push for government to actually consider all these matters like as if their time has come.
I wonder why agencies like NEMA only respond to natural disasters and other unfortunate situations, but they never bart an eye when people are using ladders to disembark on a plane. They would be responsible for providing succor to victims of the recent gas fire accident in the East, but not to the fire mitigation department of industrial gas plants around the country to prevent a similar situation in the future.
This only suggests that we are only waiting for emergencies in this country and not allowing them to teach us a lesson. Take the United States for example, they have put systems in place to prevent the replication of 9/11 tragedy, but back home, Boko Haram still bombed Nyaya Park twice in a year and tragedy occurred at both times.
I recommend government uses the Internet to better Nigerian systems that are a shadow of themselves. There should not just be immediate response to matters that come to limelight, but even remote responses that shows concern. For example, the Bauchi Airport incidence should make us inquire if Jos, Minna or Uyo airport has functional airstairs and even spare ones in case of emergency. Imagine again how a sport official collapsed in Ibadan stadium, we ought to consider the health response systems of stadiums around the country.
I hope we use the Internet to strengthen Nigerian systems for the betterment of all.
