I want to share my little farming experience through pictures. I had initially wanted to make it a sort of documentary detailing my journey but I know I won't have the time to do proper justice to it. So I decided to share pictures instead and maybe add little description to them.

This journey has taken me through lots of paid trainings (physical onsite/hands-on & virtual online classes) and also self-learning from personal researches and online videos etc. While profit is ultimately at mind, what has really driven me more is raw passion.

I’ll be posting a backlog of events starting from as far back as 2016/2017 or there about up to present date and hopefully I’ll continue to share my journey updates from time to time as I’m able to spare the time to do so.

I'll start with my 2017 cultivation of cassava, corn, watermelon and fluted pumpkin.

Following pictures are from the 1st land I'd acquired in 2016 for farming but later sold it in 2022.

Well done 👍. You have really done well.
I think we can do a lot together considering where I work.
I'm sending you a dm now

Good day Nairalanders. Please, I don't want any ridicule or abuse. Let's us be civil in our comments and responses, please. I hope this is not to much to ask for.

This my personal decision. I will be 37 this year, and lately I discover I wasn’t not wired for marriage maybe it’s because I love my personal space, and the phobia for marriage especially bad news I keep hearing about marriage lately, turning two lovers and friends into hard-sworn enemies, child custody dramas, alimony, divorce, physical and mental abuse, manipulation, even assassination, etc. I can't imagine sharing my space permanently with a stranger because of "feelings" and societal expectation call "marriage". I never hate women. To attest to this fact, I have female friends, friends with benefits who we all vibes together. At times, some come my place crashing and staying over for the weekend. But in all this, I don't think I can ever be committed to a long term relationship, making one woman a centre of my world, the whole thing look bizzare, and illogical to me, and I see as a marriage as a "necessary distraction" for a man in reaching his life and personal goals. On this note, I've decided to seek surrogate mother just to birth a child, a seed I can call mine. I'll love to pay off the person and she will never have any legal claim to the "product" of the surrogacy. Now I ask, what does the law says about this kind of surrogacy in Nigeria? Is it realistic?

Since you have phobia for marriage, why don't you go for adoption?
Most mothers will not want to part with their babies.

This is Nigeria, the issue of surrogacy is not well understood here.
Don't be surprised that the surrogate mother will see herself as your baby mama and keep coming to You for money and more money.

Adoption will save you a lot of drama

Samantha125:
So you want your child to suffer the consequences of your selfish decisions? Every child needs his or her own mother more than they need their fathers... No love can be compared to that of a mother's love... And I'm very sure that even you yourself are more close to your mother than your father.

I understand that marriage is not for everyone, but if you're not ready to have a joint custody with the mother, then I'd suggest that you abort the mission of having children.

Wickedlywicked:
If you read my first paragraph well, you would easily see where I specifically said what works for everyone differs and secondly, biko why would I be feeling restless about someone who dumped me? Why should I be forcing communication with someone who obviously doesn’t want to talk to me? That is why I clearly stated that it depends and also depends on the circumstances surrounding your breakup. [b]The person I mentioned earlier isn’t my first, second or third Ex [/b]but the circumstances under which the relationship collapsed and the kind of person she was to me while in the relationship didn’t allow for enmity hence the reason I was feeling restless. Also, I made it clear that you need to set boundaries, no too much closeness and again, if you still have the urge to replace your ex with someone else or the urge to compete with them that you are now better or that they have lost a gem or that you’ve found someone better, then you still love them. Malice is a pointer to the fact that you are either pained as a sour loser or you just find it difficult to move on and more often than not, it leads to making mistakes upon mistakes because you aren’t at peace while trying to compete with them. Once you start seeing your ex as a mere friend and the thoughts of sleeping with them don’t cross your mind again, you are fully and finally at peace with yourself and with them. Blocking people and keeping malice is a sign that you are defeated, pained and they still live rent-free in your head.

Enemies of progress

Mine na imagination and day dreaming.
If you see the type of cars, the food, the mansion and the life I'm enjoying in my "imagination world" eeh .

MONEY247:
Maybe the lord is calling him home....
I saw that he was called home....

Let's pray for the Man of God and pray for Strength upon him...

Please don't insult me if you are angry..... I have a gift....I see things... even when I don't want to see them

What of me? What can you see?

autoez:
Thanks so much for the help

How far with the cough?
Hope it's gone

Sicklebear28:
Nawa ooooo. This is the essence of wearing bra. A lot of girls hate wearing bra these days
My own be say God go punish who ever make me commit "lookery"

I wanted to watch but when I heard that her oranges spilled, I refrained after all I am not a lesbian.

Whoever that uploaded that video is sick

Jandminded:
I feel same way too. Not that I'm lacking or anything, but life is getting more boring, even getting a Lamborghini wouldn't make me feel different, I know what I'm saying.

I think it's an awakening into something deeper about life, but I can't fathom it fully yet.

Aside from sex and good food, nothing impresses me that much again

If you are in Lagos, try to visit Ikoyi or Kirikiri prison or check for prisons close to you.

After seeing men( some are 100% innocent )in horrible conditions, you might have a rethink.

Putting smile on people's face can also make you happy. Visit the orphanage, buy whatever you can afford and give to those children. The smiles on their innocent, beautiful faces can light up your world.

I wish they had played Ghana. These Moroccans are just too much for our girls.
Nevertheless, it's not over yet. Hope dey

I have been looking for that his picture where he was picking his teeth not giving a damn about Nigeria.
May his soul rest in peace

goodmuscopi:
Be careful what you wish for. Sometimes we desire a life that brings problem to us

Wishing to have a little more money I would say is not bad. He who wears the shoe knows where it pinches.

Skydivine:
That his travels is the secret of your happiness. Too much day by day closeness brings see finish and insult.
Let that hunger for closeness continue to fan the flame of desire for each other.
You only misses what is not there

To an extent you are right. The way I lhunger and look forward to his coming back eeeh...you will think we just got married last week

TBT if I were a man, I won't be comfortable dating a lady with a car while I'm a legedizbenz.
My ego will be bruised. We are Africans. A man should be at the front while her woman follows behind

Samantha125:
You should travel with him sometimes... That's if he'd be okay with it.

You are right dear but my job too won't let me.
We communicate all the time, calls, chats, video calls......though none can be compared to physical closeness

yeyebrity:
This is why you think you have a beautiful marriage. Most people whose partners are not always with them think this way too , until they start staying together 247. That is when you will know the real person you are married too.

Na lie. I have a beautiful marriage full stop.
Even if we stay together 247, it doesn't change anything. We used to stay together until he got a job that makes him travel often.
Don't use negative vibe please

tiswell:
as I dey see you so,nkwughari dey ya eyes

Onye ara
You think say I be you............................
I don taya for this 40 warever

I have a beautiful marriage. The only challenge is the my hubby is hardly around, always travelling. I sometimes feel lonely.
I also wish we had more money to enable me get a softer babygirl life

OnlyChris:
People from that part lives differently, I know one that makes roughly 300k+ monthly but still sleeps inside his shop..

Wao! I don't envy them........................................

OnlyChris:
If you can take care of her financially, why not..
If not, send her back and maybe send her some money if you feel guilty abt it.

Did I hear you say "if he is ok financially"?
A financially capable man cannot be living in one room with 7 children

When the bad boys kill, we see pictures. How come we never see the ones neutralized by the troops?

I keep things to myself and pray to God about it.
Then recently, chatGPT is my ever present friend. You need to see where we are chatting

LUAN1:
Please, I need a permanent solution for my sleeplessness. I hardly sleep more than 3 hours a night, and on some nights, I don’t sleep at all. It all started when I was young. Back then, I could sleep, but I would have to lie in bed for about two hours before falling asleep.

Now, I can go an entire night without sleeping, and it's really affecting me. I no longer have early morning erections, I’m becoming very lean, my eyes are always red, and I constantly feel a burning sensation in my chest—almost like I'm having heart problems.

I don't even know how to fully describe how I feel, but I’m deeply depressed. Please, I need help.

Please see a doctor. The best approach to your sleeplessness is to find the underlying cause.
I pray you get help real quick

bazoodo:
pay a business consultant and let him or her give you proper advice. Not coming online looking for free advice

You never can tell, I might read an advice that works perfectly from here. Nairaland is a pool of different personalities

May their love last a lifetime.

Please I am asking for a friend
How do you cope with this situation?
You love someone badly and wants him but this is someone you can never ever have because it's morally wrong .What are the practical steps you can take to kill/ suppress the feeling?

Yesterday, I spent almost half my Day trying to organize the house and do house chores, after the cleaning exercise, I got so tired 😩

It got me wondering, what if I wasn't a Mum that works from home!?
The cleaning, cooking, washing, taking care of Baby Light and organizing stuffs is very tiring.

Most times my husband will say, "why not use the services of a house help"
I'll jokingly say, "I need a male person not a female and he will immediately disagree to it".
I'll just laugh 😂, shey na me won use my hands carry second wife come give am😄😂

Nice piece. Where can one source these online jobs? Any link?

This is so sad.

Reminds me of my primary school classmate. He lives with his Aunty close to my house while the rest if his family (dad, mom and 4 siblings) live somewhere else.
One faithful day, his family went to bed and all died before morning...food poisoning.
Till date, I feel terrible when I remember him.
Nnanyelu, wherever you are today, I'm sure that God has not forsaken you.
