If ur "demand" is what I think it is, then u have ur answer. Don't u know the girl has to eat enough better food in order to have the energy to meet ur "demand"? She is only trying to maintain her engine before it breaks down. U shud realise that ur demand is depreciating her engine too fast. If she does not maintain and service it with the correct food, the engine may knock na. U expect her to drink garri or eat rice without meat and still have strength toof meet ur "demand"?

charliboy654:
are u Alrite at all? if the outcome of the investigation proof that they are guilty, aren't they suppose to be sacked. punch made a report, fg investigated d report, they found out it was true n took an action by sacking lecturers. so wtf are u saying.

the problem is the investigation.
Most of these investigations by outsiders to the system leave a lot of loopholes that the legal system can easily puncture and declare their findings invalid.

The only thing that sticks permanently is hard core indisputable evidence, carefully obtained by those very conversant with the system, the insiders.

I am not in anyway supporting the Randy lecturers. I am just stating what I observed based on the report. There is a good chance that the external investigators did a shoddy job. The lecturers will therefore stand a fighting chance of being reinstated by the courts. Too bad

You seem confused.

On one hand, you say they may have been sacked following INVESTIGATIONS. Then in the next sentence you wonder if they were sacked 'based on hearsay and rumors'.

Make up your mind. If you admit there was an investigation, why babble on about 'hearsay'?

U need to pay more attention in lexis and structure classes my dear.

I don't get u, let's assume there is a rumour frm a soft sell magazine like hint on how a group of civil servants sold agency's equipment

A panel was then setup up, the findings revealed that the allegations where true, you are telling me it won't hold water in court because the allegation came frm a non reputable source

so investigations can't be started based on rumour or hearsay or newspaper?

my point is that investigations of this nature is best done internally by the school, and very discretely in order to obtain tangible admissible evidence.
It is not what the EFCC, the police, ministry of Education and all other groups of people (that do not know their left from their right about the basic facts related to the matter) should handle.
In such circumstances, the investigations usually end up with the (hired) investigators seeking out some scapegoats to hang, in order to hide their ignorance and also justify that they were effective in executing the job they were given. I have seen it play out several times.

I don't know how else to explain this to u. But trust me, If u work in a government agency, especially if u are close to the main stream corridors of power, u will definitely understand and appreciate how MDA politics and bureaucracy operate.

no need for insults.
I work in a govt tertiary institution. And the management of my institution has had occasion to sack staff for sexual misconduct. So I know how it is done. Without hard, indisputable evidence, no one is sacking anyone.
Do u know the potential exposure which lecturers will face if the govt can just wake up and sack them based on what a student says?

I have supervised jamb several times. And each time, I weep for our students and youths. They don't know Jack. They don't even bother to study. It is that bad.

I still maintain that a lecturer will be f*cking scared of failing a student who deserves to pass. The possible repercussions are scary. Answer Scripts get re-marked all the time. Most lecturers also have enemies among their ranks that will never cover up for them. So a re-marking will likely expose the deed.

All these students that bribe and sleep with lecturers for grades are very stupid and dumb. Most of them are so lazy that they have no other choice. They can't study. They deserve to fail.
But that does not justify lecturers to take advantage of the rot and further corrupt the system.

Unless these lecturers were sacked for other reasons. Unless they were caught red handed and the evidence against them is very strong. Other than that, If they were sacked as an outcome of an investigation started because of a newspaper report, then all I can see here is the beginning of a very long, brutal and messy court case which the lecturers are bound to win.
U don't wake up and sack a federal civil servant so easily, based on hear say and rumours.

This is hydroponic fodder made from sorghum (guinea corn). It is 6 days old and ready to be fed to pigs, cows, rabbits, goats, sheep, ram, horses e.t.c.
It can also be fed to poultry, but at the 4th day as this is @ the 6th day. This fodder was made from 1 kg sorghum and now weighs 6 to 7 kg.
Get trained on this and reduce your cost of production.

EMMAACHILE:
Second picture below shows loss of feathers and I suspect low crude protein as being responsible as I used grower feed from vitalfeed and hybrid in the last two weeks.
I will boosting the meal with 15% roasted soyabeans to push the crude protein to about 20% today

Formula is this
48*15 (soybeans cp*percent of meal) + 15*85 (hybrid grower cp*percent of meal)
=720+1275/100
Average of 19.95 crude protein

After this I will use vitalfeed broiler finisher or broiler finisher concentrate for the remaining weeks

ONE QUESTION BRO:
what is the feed consumption of these birds? do they eat like broilers?
if so, why would u raise a bird for 14 weeks when u can attain similar results with broilers at 8 - 9 weeks.
what is the average weight of these birds right now?

U see bro, I'm following ur posts like crazy. I'm attracted to noilers based on what I heard that they can eat low quality feed and still do well, just that it might take them a little longer to reach market weight. I am planning to experiment on them next year. So your thread and that of kayo80 is trying to help me decide on the optimum trade-off between lower feed costs and longer rearing (and feeding) period.

so far, I do not see the logic in using the same grade of feed i would use for broilers to feed noilers. It will only make me spend more on feeding. am also considering the fact that a lot of people will want to down price is as local chicken. I would either need to sell by kg (low total sales value due to reduction in dressed weight) or sell at even lower prices to the middle men.

@op ,while carrying out due diligence on your new farm you still need to concern yourself with finding market for your birds, do not wait till the are mature before you start looking for market. with the number you have it will not do you any good to keep them for an extra day. you should look out for people that buy per kilogram,they usually can afford to buy large quantity at once.

Good advice.
but at the present cost of feed, u might not make profit by selling on per Kilogram basis.

We should have used the formula for sum which is

S = a { 1- r^n/ 1-r} since r is not equal to 1

you are on point.

You've almost nailed a job and then the interviewer placed on your table a white paper containing the following...

Legend has it that the inventor of the game called chess was told to name his own reward. His reply was along this lines.

Imagine a chess board.

Suppose one grain of corn is placed on the first square.
2 grains on the second
4 grains on the third,
8 grains on the fourth,

and so on until you get to the 64th square.

I would like as many grains of corn as the chess board now carries.

We were given just 5 minutes to do this...

use geometric progression to solve it. also apply the formula used to find the sum of the series in a geometric progression.
dont have these formulas by heart but if i do, the maths is pretty simple.

I feel they can get to 2.2 kg by the 14 week...but I am not sure they will get to 2.5kg.
