Yes. One can make millions if one can add value, not just selling the fruits. Make juice or juice concentrate from the fruits.

no o I heard just selling the fruit no added value

opeaceo:
Here they go again! A very beautiful thread to debate on, you couldn't resist the evil urge in you to turn it upside down.

To the topic, if the duties on imported rice stands at 60%, why is the imported rice cheaper than the locally produced ones? Nigeria we hail thee.

cost of production.hoe and cutlass Vs tractors

davidhans:
Your statements are all legitimate but do we then fold our hands and watch while our name is being bandied around the world with evil affiliations? Movies like Being Mary Jane and Blackish have made reference to Nigerians as scammers, other movies have made reference to the African prince scam run by 419ers. We have to change this narrative, you think America is perfect? they have a lot of issues too, they just package it better than us

where is our package. Nta is useless govt town crier ,nollywood only show superstition and America doesn't need your competition in Africa. So where will the package come from

Good. Let them share our money for us

Teachers and their low productivity (value to our society)
What have they taught that has solved a problem in Nigeria, technical or ethical. Nothing or very little. That's why they're suffering

Let's form power users association and build our own gas turbines for our estates, residential and industrial

walemoney007:
The APC is not different from the PDP,when will Nigeria start progressing sef...osinbanjo is not different from obj,gej and buhari,they all have nothing to offer.

The government of Nigeria is the only government in the world where they don't care about the citizen,what is our crime to our government

when educated ppl take part in politics

9jii:
Yes we should not be contributing in polluting the world. Forget coal

yet USA producer 60 % of their electricity from coal.

slimthugchimee:
It costs a whole lot for that........

Coal plant is the way, but our efforts with that is being frustrated by america

how

Bacon21:
Sponsoring solar and wind power is best. It is simple, clean, renewable, and not very costly if done right

1 million dollars per megawatt is not costly. Na wa for our education o. We need at least 40 thousand megawatts. That's 40 billion dollars =12.something trillion Naira. Our whole budget is effectively about 5 trillion all used to pay indolent civil servants

Starships4u:
Clueless post ever..... You,furk you....OP fork u...

the poster above me got it. The rest of you are a testament to our failed education system

Jofez:
The reason they still come to south west especially Ibadan is because most hatcheries are located there and they've made good names. Not that we don't have hatcheries in south east, doc transporters are all in Ibadan and you know not all buses carry doc. If you buy from sunchi in Enugu, you've to look for car to transport it and its usually commercial car or "chatter" which is very expensive. So to save yourself the stress, you order from Ibadan and call the driver coming to your area to bring them for you.

why don't hatcheries invest in transport for day old chicks. Ibo know-it-all about transport business na. Can't one use open pick up or cabstar

Magdagascariens:
A community recently got fed up with IBDEC, so they went to their office to demand that they be put under IKEJA electric- which is closer too!

That move change the whole deal. IBDEC now gives them constant power, becos they don't want to loose customer. That's the power of competition!

Once government takes its hands away completely from power, we will experience a turn around. How many developed nations power their economy with diesel gen??!!

really which community is close to Lagos than Ibadan. Do you have an article to back this up

That one can make 10 million per hectare

mrvitalis:
Now you see it

I didn't know. I wasn't following

mrvitalis:
U don't. Get it ..we didn't get that bill passed cos we didn't have enough people behind us ...our reps didn't come only 18 came when such an important bill is to be read

Now u see leadership is our biggest problem??

guy you get strength o. How do you do it. Trying to reason withignorant ppl. Please let me know your reason cos me Don taya

Ugomba:
I laughed out loud when I saw the threat of Northern youths to Igbos, ordering them to leave the north.
The North don't want restructuring, what do they now want?
Do these northerners know the implications of these threat?
90% of Internal Generated Revenue in the North are gotten from Taxation of Igbo markets, Hotels, Factories etc.

What factories please

NDI IGBO, Listen, Lagos is the most populated state in Nigeria with 25+million occupants and the same lagos ironically has the smallest landmass in Nigeria, If Lagos can contain 25million people, then Enugu and Anambra alone can contain All Igbos.
Igbo land is bigger than Rwanda, Israel, Gambia, Singapore etc and these are Countries of their own.
If Egypt can build an artifical canal as seaport, Igbos can dredge the Obeaku water in Ukwa, Abia state to the Atlantic.
It is 12nauticals to the atlantic ocean .
There is Oil and gas in Igbo land, from Egbema, Ukwa, Ndoki, Oguta, Ogbaru etc

These sound south south ish

what about Solid minerals like Limestones, Coal, Tin, Columbite, Timber etc that are in commercial size in Igbo land.

Why aren't they exploited now

We have huge markets, and most importantly a very great Human Resources.
.
I call upon all Igbo investors in the North to start the process of relocating their businesses to the east,
why will an Imo man build a hotel in jigawa when he can build it in Oguta or Okigwe?

Because the market is in the north. What wilt Hausa man do in South

Why will an Abia man build a mall in Kano when he can build it in Umuahia
Why will umeofia want to build a tomato product industry in sokoto when he can build in Onitsha, Nnewi or Asaba.

Nearness to raw materials (spoilage tinz)

.
- Lets build international airports in Igbo areas just like Sam mbakwe build the imo airport by shrewd contribution.

How many ppl use the one in port Harcourt.

Lets copy the Israeli method who returned home and build their homeland.
.
- Some Towns in Igbo land like Arochukwu, Orlu, Okigwe, Nnewi, Afikpo, Nsukka, etc should be build and transformed into a city.
.
- Do you know that Coal in Enugu can power up the whole Igbo land or alternatively the Gas in Oguta and Egbema can power up a Gas power plant in Igbo land.
Don't forget the already existing Thermal power plant in Alaoji Abia that is built by Barth Nnaji.
.

Then why are they looking at it
Lazy governors voted by easily deceived voters(actually the whole Nigeria is the same)

- What about Aba? We can open up Industrial estates in Nnewi,Aba, Asaba, Okigwe etc and start producing some products we will use in Igbo areas inorder to grow the GDP and IGR.
.

With which looted money?

- What about Agriculture? Farming should be given and commercialised to Big farm investors.

Which land

By the way, when you Eat Oha soup or Nsala soup, how many of the ingredient come from the North? NONE.

Pepper meat onion I think

Is it their beef? Ebonyi can build a massive cow farm, Imo can build a massive Poultry farm etc.
We can get and produce our own meat.
.

We import beef. Dunno why few poultry in East. Think it has to do with penchant for fast income from buying and selling.nobody wants to invest for 6 months

- Lets build more markets and High rise Residential buildings for easy and organised accomodation.
.

Who can afford it

- Where are our industralists and investors, it is time to saturate the entire Igbo land with trillions worth of your investments.
.

Most Ibo are importers exporters not
industrialistsMost not all

- What about our own media, we need investment in internationalised media in Igbo land so that we can tell our story and advertise our land to the world.
..

Nothing stops you from investing in cable channel but lowing you it will be in Ibo language that nobody will buy

- What about ICT Park in Igbo land, we have the brains to grow many service based and logistic technopreneurship in Igbo land.

Yeah but rather buy sell and buy titles

.
The empty threat by the northern youths should be a wakeup call.

If it's empty why is it waking you up

Even if you want to base outside Igboland, then travel abroad.

Who will give you visa
Even Ghana Don taya for una

Respect comes when your house is in order.

You're damn right

IGBOS lets think home.

Wishful thinking
For the whole Nigeria

Of course its the same people but with different orientation.
You always ask irrelevant questions why?? You want people that Kanu and other well meaning biafrans are suffering to groom to come work for people like you in this present zoogerian structure?? Is like you love dreaming

That is why I always doubt your Igboness look at the kind of irrelevant questions you're asking.. You're asking how biafra will generate money to pay workers ok, how do zoogeria generate money to pay its workers??

Nigeria says workers with oil money. What will biafra use (Niger delta oil is not biafra )

mrvitalis:
This mentality is what's killing Nigeria ,you don't vote someone cos you think he won't win

actually, you do. Politics, Crazy right

paschu:


How funny! This is the clown who wants to engage kanu in a debate?

Real mature with the insults

Can the state government control the state security?

Ask lastma
What stops them from having state security (vigilante),bakassi boys) CCTV, forensics data base
Just lazy governors

Can the state government control the state natural resources?

Can they pay for oil bloc or mining permit?
Lazy governors

Can the state government control power generation?

Pay Nepa license and buy Gen
What's the big deal
Lazy governors not northerners o

Can the state government control international air, land or see ports?

Lagos building international airport that Federal customs airforce immigration and dss will be posted to.
You see how lazy your governors are
in fact all 36 governors less Lagos governors

Can the state government control education policies?

Which policy

Can the state government abolish quota system?

Get your own institutions then abolish quota system or make it only for Ibo ppl
Una ready to invest in una land?

Geeez, you don't even know why Nigeria was created. See, Nigeria is created and exists to extract resources and share it among a few cliques.

What stop you from joining the clique

Or what do you think is the reason your country promotes a culture of mysterious un-auditable security votes, pumping funds annually into vague constituency projects and bogus allowances for legislative officials; while granting obscene life pensions to the club of executive elected federal and state officers for looting only for 8 years or less?

when you win election demystify the security votes and constituency projects

attackgat:
Dont talk like a fool.

Yeah throw insults

Whatever you think that Igbos are are gaining by being part of Nigeria, it will never be as great as what Scotland is gaining by being part of Britain, the 5th richest country in the world.

Free Access to Nigerian market
Non Nigerians will be taxed heavily

Scotland has its own parliament, its own judiciary, its own police force, resource control, fiscal independence. There is no marginalisation of the Scottish people, infact, a Scottish man called Gordon Brown was British primeminister some years ago.

do you not have houses of assembly,magistrate and high courts and members of Nigerian police force (2 back to back igps o) or your reps and judges are northerners

Despite all that Scotland is gaining by being part of a super-power nation like Britain, despite being well treated, despite being part of Britain for over 300 years, despite all the powers and freedoms Scotland enjoys, that same Scotland agitated for independence and was granted a referendum in 2014.

Some losers agitated and the Scottish ppl spoke with their votes not kids or insults or incitement

What this should tell you is that no matter how bad or good Igbos have it in Nigeria, it ever remains the inalienable right of the Igbo nation to decide if they want to be part of Nigeria or not.

of course and it's al, o the inalienable right of Nigeria to decide to keep them within the fold. If una go where we wan see Ibo girl to marry Mr Ibo soup to chop. See dip girl o

mrvitalis:
1) federal projects

2) their representatives did their job well unlike the south east representatives that only 18 were present out of 44 when the bill for south east development bill was to be passed

We need leaders who know politics and who are smart

18?
Na wa o.
We're not even serious in this Southern Nigeria

mrvitalis:
are you high ??

South west and north are the only place you will drive for 20 min you won't see a house

In my state imo state can't even drive a minute without seeing a house get a life son

I am for one nigeria tho

ahnahnn you fuckup hia o. 1 minute drive is due to landmass not development

mrvitalis:
Are you kidding me ?

Talking to banks to fund fruit concentrate plants in the state , the orange and mango that waste will surly pass $3bn


Benue is a state I know too well

Cashew can give them that

Cassava to enthanol can give them that

Cocoa can give them that

Bro i can't give details not chances for that

Bros do you have idea of feasibility of 1 hectare of mango or/and orange

mrvitalis:
This is our problem we have a gdp of close to a hundred trillion and yet taxing out 40 trillion to run our country is hard

Either the money get stolen before they even get to the government or we have had some very compotent government since 1999

All this is all a grand plan to get the people do be uninterested in government since they contribute little

I always laugh when ppl say no state is viable except Lagos.

please does anyone have price of igba (200 heaps) of cassava

Again, morons should not quote me.

what did you get in your waec English. this is not an exam. you have no argument, why you resorted to insults. don't worry we will continue to use you as whipping boys in Nigeria until oil finish then we will do you another biafra and this time you will not get even a single brick back. Mr typist

uche77zero:
BIAFRA THE WAY FORWARD
Rather than going about releasing hate speeches at an alarming rate. I believe that the best thing we should doing is carrying out various summits that should be developmental in nature.
1. An economic summit at what ever name you choose to call it, Either Biafra Economic Summit or South East Economic summit to address the economic challenges of the region. Every one can come in give solutions to our challenges rather just highlight on our challenges. Preferably we should make it on state bases so that we can reach more. The economic summit will allow for igbos that can proffer solutions that could be attained.

2. An Agricultural summit should seriously be looked into to allow young men and women access to loans and finances to facilitate agricultural solutions in the regions. We have many young persons that are strong enough leaving the rural areas and leaving our agricultural capacity dropping seriously. The west has better knowledge of cooperative financing than we do.

3. Political liberation, we have young men that can represent us better not given the chance due to Godfatherism. we need to educate our minds to understand that we can do better with better representation,
4. An educational revolution has to be put in place, we are going to school just to go to school. We need more that to achieve more as a nation.
The world is now our audience
let us not lose this opportunity,
