I've sent it ma'am
Good morning ma'am
For the sacks, will you like me to customize it with your brand name/logo or leave it plain like that?

The first two pictures below, are plain sack
The third picture is the normal 10kg sack

Please use the 3rd bag with “tomato.”
I expect the person helping with the transfer to do it later in the afternoon or Sunday at the latest.

Double vaccinated on Pfizer and anticipating my booster shot. I had no side effects, no part of my body is magnetic, I don’t have the mark of the beast and none of the nonsense you hear/read about.

If your mind can grasp science and you have Google, you can do your own research instead of feeding on Facebook and Twitter conspiracy theories from lunatics, the paranoid, and the uninformed. Read up from credible information websites and news sources. The vaccine did not just suddenly appear. There was already years of work invested into mRNA vaccines before Covid and it was just adapted to Covid after more research with the advent of the pandemic.

The vaccine is saving lives. A lot of people have expressed regrets on their death beds as they lamented the missed opportunity to take the vaccine. Covid has killed otherwise healthy people with no pre- existing conditions. Gambling with whether or not you’ll be a Covid fatality is not exactly wisdom.

maureensylvia:
Yes ma, I got your mail and responded
The price is not same, price of rice has increased and you're going for a quality long Grain rice which will make you come back for more.

60 percent of my customers are Nairalanders, I can share there numbers if you need any.

Please email your account information (name on account, bank name and account number) so that I can have someone arrange the transfer of funds. I hope to get the funds to you by tomorrow at the latest. It just depends on the person arranging the transfer.
Mood11 is going to pickup from Iddo motor park and would need to know in advance when pickup would be ready. Thank you.

The target is Lagos only. Thankfully, Mood11 has volunteered transportation services.

maureensylvia:
Sorry for late response sir, these days have been hectic
Lagos pick up are Iddo, mile12
Yea, there is a storage Option (storehouse fee) where they can come anyday to pick there goods, they are likely to pay for fee if they delay in days.
The rice is 52000
Sacks for rebagging 2200( 11×200)
Delivery fee 5000 (I said earlier, 4000
it keeps increasing because of the season)
59200

Madam, I just tried to email you but it seems complicated so I’ll just post here.

I was thinking It’s the #46k advertised on page 14 for the 110kg + price of smaller bags + luxury bus. This is for the long grain. Abeg o, help me review so that we can finalize quickly and set things in motion before this our Nigerian runaway inflation crashes the whole project. I was hoping to do this instead of giving out cash. The rice is just a token for our fellow Nlanders to have something this period and as a fellow woman on Nland, I wanted to patronize a hardworking female. With the recipients’ testimonies, you can be assured of more direct or indirect business.

Lastly, since this is all based on trust, do you have anyone on Nairaland that you’ve transacted with before?

Thank you.

Hello Mood11

I am very interested in your offer, thank you very much for volunteering. I know moving around Lagos is not a walk in the park
The seller would send to Iddo motor park via luxury bus. As per the post above, I am hoping that TripleB can also assist with the distribution to people in her vicinity if you can drop off those bags with her and that would reduce your legwork I will update you as soon as I have final details. Thank you again

Trippleblessing:
Geminita and MMotimo, calling my name attarcts money ooooo.

Good morning, MMotimo if your wish is to gift Nairaland people, no wahala. I just read backwards and saw you don't want to create a thread for it, anyhow you want it to flow, just tell me and your wish will be done.

This is the first time I am coming across your Moniker, and I am glad to see what you are up to. Thank you, it takes more than money to give.

Thank you for reaching out @ Tripleblessing. I didn’t realize you could organize for Nlanders too.

From my research, buying from the north is cheaper and it also gives me the opportunity to patronize another hardworking Nland female so I’m working on that. Someone has volunteered to help with motor park pickup for onward distribution so I’m thinking that if you could be available as a pickup point, maybe bags could be dropped off at your place for pickup by those in your vicinity? Please let me know if this makes sense

UmmuFarrah:
Ma, please I will like to be a beneficiary of your donation if I'm not late already. God bless you more. Thank you

Happy to include you, Madam

UmmuFarrah:
Hi everyone.
I don't know if there is anyone that know of any vacant shop to sell food stuff not more than my budget (5k) monthly around aguda Surulere Lagos. Have met like 3 agents but haven't seen any shop worth it, all I do is waste transport fare from checking different places every time. Please help me if you can. Thanks

Hi Ummufarrah, I responded

maureensylvia:
Yes it's 11 bags of 10kg
The Delivery cost will be counted as one bag of 110kg

I anticipate your response sir
Happy Sunday

Please check my last post above

Geminita:
Good morning Mmotimo
Check out Trippleblessing, she's organizing a program regarding the welfare of Aged and widowed this Christmas.
I feel she can do justice to what you want to do

Thank you, Geminita. It’s just that I’d like it to be Nairaland people and hers is for the general public. Thanks for the suggestion though

Hello Madam, can I pick any motor park in Lagos for the delivery?
I’m sending to different people so if they can’t pick it up right away, is there a storage option? The bags are going to Nairalanders that I’m gifting the rice to and they may not have their own cars so I’m just trying to anticipate what the delivery scenario would look like.
Lastly, can you please confirm total cost with luxury bus delivery and provide your name and account information? Thank you very much

Your juju is powerful, where is the baba located?

Chicken livers, only capable of making snide remarks but no boldness to actually call out n3xt. You and who is doing juju?

For the dear ladies and gentlemen that work for their money:

Never be in a hurry to spend big money and don’t forget to pray before making decisions on hefty sums. Respect the money you have worked for by treating it with care and employing wisdom with whom you join business with. As we pray for God to protect our harvest (the fruits of our labor) from the devourer, let us be mindful of the workmen we invite to work on said harvest so that we don’t by ourselves open the door for locusts to ravage our sweat.

Season’s greetings!

What I disagree with is that you need to beat kids to instill values in them and to teach them empathy.

Similar to another sentiment that says your kids have to suffer for them to be emotionally strong and for them to be appreciative of their privilege/advantages. #urbanmyths

Hmmmmmmmmmm

Like play, like play. . . . . .truly sad.

Magnoliaa:
A question: do you personally believe there should be ZERO beating? Or you believe there are some cases, rare instances, where the cane would be justified? What do you make of the 'spare the rod, spoil the child' phrase? Also, what do you think of a stranger correcting a child? Whether the parents are around or not - is that right at all?

I know you didn’t ask me but permit me to respond to this.

There might be exceptions but I believe that zero beating would work well for the vast majority of kids if parents provided adequate support in other areas. From personal experience, we’ve practiced almost zero beating in raising our kids. Each child has probably only received one or two spankings in their lifetimes and they were all thanks to me. A big part of the lack of spanking with our kids is that they easily responded to verbal reprimands so any spanking would have been overkill. Beating is often more an expression of a parent’s frustration.

I have come to interpret the “spare the rod, spoil the child “ in a non literal manner. The rod , IMO, is not just a physical cane, it is all the things you can “spare” that can end up damaging a child’s psyche. Moral, emotional, spiritual, financial support are all “rods” that parents cannot afford to spare in order to avoid damaging “spoiling” the child and creating monsters. Our society is quick to jump on the literal, popular meaning while neglecting a slew of other supports needed to raise well-adjusted kids that are not “spoilt.” Spoiling the child is not only avoided by spanking. Actual progress is supplying what it takes to parent a child in all spheres. For example, spanking a child for chronic theft makes no sense if you have not provided food and the basic necessities PLUS taught the concept of contentment.

As for strangers correcting, depends on the type of correction. Physical is an absolute no-no. I would never put my hands on someone’s kids, even nieces and nephews and I expect others to keep their hand off my kids. With that said, depending on the circumstances and the age of the child, I might say something but never to a child whose parents I do not know unless it was a controlled setting like me teaching in a Sunday school class or some other sort of parent supervision setting where I’m volunteering. I would not reprimand the child of a total stranger outside of those settings.

sisisioge:
My sister, I couldn't help crying.....it is so sad. Do you know that some parents are wary of correcting their erring kids in this same Nigeria? As in they dont want to get in that situation where they put their feet down and get the kids corrected because they dont want to seem to hash on their lovely kids. No one is saying you bring back those abusive beatings we took from our parents but hey....the good old rod will always discourage bad behaviour. See now....see our society, see the leaders we are breeding for tomorrow. Children are supposed to be sweet and innocent fa....people are now raising cold blooded killers! May God help us.

It’s beyond sad, it’s a Nigeria that many of us could never have imagined.

“School training “ should not be a thing. This is where a lot of people get it wrong, especially with Naija boarding schools. Training a child is first and foremost a parental responsibility. It is not the duty of the school, neighbours, society, other family members, etc.

The same people that are not ready to train their kids are the same ones that want to birth 4,5,6. . . . . If you are not ready to train your kids in the ways of right and wrong, do society a favour and don’t have them.

Training kids takes time and effort, not just money. If pursuing money means you can’t raise your kids right, then don’t have them! If you’re not pursuing money but you just don’t have the inclination/ability to train your children, don’t have them just so that you can unleash them on society. Only God knows how Nairaland’s child rape convict, Oyinbogoju/Powerhouse5050 was raised.

I just saw a thread, someone was asking whether to do food business or yahoo. That tells you that there is something fundamentally wrong with his upbringing. This is someone who seriously thinks criminal activity is a valid money making business, to the extent of seeking public opinion about choosing between a legitimate and illegitimate venture.

maureensylvia:
Good morning sir
Nice to have you here sir
No. 1) yes the picture below is the type of painter, also known as custard rubber

No.2) yes sir, it's the same

No.3) two different pics of rice are there in page 14, the first is short grain, the second is long grain. There prices differs too (Pics below)

No.4) yes I do repackage to 10kg... With 50kg, you will get 5 bags of 10kg

No. 5) yes the long grain is stone and shaft free

No. 6) I charge for delivery fee,
50kg bag is #1000 for truck,
40 mudu/26 painters is #2000
(subject to discount on bulk purchases)

50kg bag is #2500 for luxurious bus (used to be 1500 but because it's there season and gas increase, the price increased too)
40 mudu/26 painters is 4000 for Luxurious bus

No.7) payment is before delivery
Truck takes almost a week to get to your destination.. depending on how fast the loading takes

Luxurious bus takes 48 hours to get to your destination

Thank you

Thank you for answering all my questions. I think eleven 10kg bags from a 110kg bag would work best as the rice is going to different households. Is the delivery cost cheaper for 10kg bags?

The rice is for Christmas and I will be in touch soon. Thanks again.

maureensylvia:
Moimoi beans 45k
Patasko beans 60k
Oloka beans 48k
Small Brown beans 50k
Jamila stone free local rice 50kg 22500
40 mudu 45k(foreign standard)


All in 40 mudu/26 painters

Hi Maureensylvia, I have a couple of questions please as I’m not familiar with some of the terms and I need to make sure that I understand perfectly. I would prefer to discuss here and I hope you won’t mind. You have been transparent with your pricing and I appreciate that. I’m not a time waster and if we’re able to make this work, it would be going to a Nairaland member.

Is “26 painters” the same thing as 26 of the four litre paint buckets?
Is that 26 painters/40 mudu the same as a 110kg bag?
The 50kg jamila rice, is that same as this picture below from page 14?
If yes, are you able to package the 50kg into five bags of 10kg each?
Is it stone and shaft free
Do you charge for delivery? If yes, how much to Lagos?
What are your payment terms and how long for goods to get to Lagos?

Thank you .
