Farm for export with which capital? Yemi, Lawal and Chinedu wey never get job after graduation. Farming at this point will not save Nigeria, we have enough farmers. Turning farm produce into finished products and making other things for export will help, not just exporting cashew and cassava.

Nigeria is not producing enough Tomatoes, Wheat, Beef, Milk etc

Wastage and Insecurity are also having their own negative effect on the Agricultural Sector

We need to expand and Government should support the farmers so most of them can upgrade to Mechanize Farming

There are cashew processing plants in Nigeria, Julius Berger even have one in Epe

Government needs to connect the North with the South by Rail

You're right

Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has charged Muslim clerics in the state, to caution herdsmen against harassing residents of communities, allegedly killing farmers, and damaging crops in the state.


Governor Fubara gave this charge when the leadership of the Muslim community in the state, paid him a visit in the spirit of Eid al-Adha on Thursday, at Government House in Port Harcourt.

The Governor noted that it is his duty as the chief security officer of the state to protect their businesses, but stated that he cannot, if some of the “errant members of their fold are destroying the businesses and livelihoods of others.”




Fubara stated that the purpose of his administration is to protect the lives and properties of everyone.

Governor Fubara said, “The local government areas are complaining, so I expect results in a couple of weeks by calling these people who practice open grazing to order in Ikwerre, Etche, Ahoada East, Ahoada West and parts of Emohua Local Government Areas.


“They shouldn’t be harassing the people and should stop killing them on their farms.”

In a statement signed by the Senior Special Assistant on Media to the Governor, Boniface Onyedi, Fubara assured of keeping the channel of communication between the state government and the Muslim community open because they are critical stakeholders in governance who should enjoy the benefit of the prevailing peace to do their business and worship without molestation.




The leader of the delegation, and Vice President General of the Rivers State Council of Islamic Affairs, Alhaji Nasir Awhelebe Uhor, assured that the Muslim community would not be involved in using religion to destabilize the State.

Alhaji Uhor pledged support for the policies and programmes of the government of Governor Fubara.

When Dangote com start refining Crude nko?

President of the Dangote Group, Alhaji Aliko Dangote remains the richest man in Africa, despite the volatility of Nigerian currency against the dollar.

Bloomberg in its daily top billionaire lists, released on Tuesday, revealed that Dangote with a wealth of $15.6 billion topped other Africans in the Index.

Dangote, who remains the richest man in Africa for the 12th year running, was the only Nigerian on the list of the top 500 billionaires, as released by Bloomberg.

Other Africans listed in the latest top 500 world billionaires list for the year 2023 included Johann Rupert and family of South Africa, now worth $13.3 billion, while Nicky Oppenheimer of South Africa, Nassef Sawiris of Egypt, Natie Kirsh of South Africa, and Naguib Sawiris are also worth $9.0 billion, $7.47 billion, $7.37billion and $5.93 billion respectively. These are the only five other Africans that made the list.

The Bloomberg Billionaires Index is a daily ranking of the world’s richest people. In calculating net worth, Bloomberg News strives to provide the most transparent calculations available, and each individual billionaire profile contains a detailed analysis of how that person’s fortune is tallied.

The index is a dynamic measure of personal wealth based on changes in markets, the economy and Bloomberg reporting.

Each net worth figure is updated every business day after the close of trading in New York. Stakes in publicly traded companies are valued using the share’s most recent closing price. Valuations are converted to U.S. dollars at current exchange rates.

Ellon Musk and Bernard Arnault were listed as the richest in the world with $219billion and $194 billion respectively in their kitties while Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates followed respectively with $151 billion and $130 billion. Larry Ellison was the fifth richest with $130 billion on the world’s billionaires’ chart.

Bloomberg is a global information and technology company, that connect decision makers to a dynamic network of data, people and ideas – “accurately delivering business and financial information, news and insights to customers around the world” Bloomberg L.P. provides financial software tools such as an analytics and equity trading platform, data services, and news to financial companies and organisations through the Bloomberg Terminal.’

Africa’s richest man, with his new worth of $15.6 billion, controls Dangote Industries, a closely-held conglomerate.

The Lagos, Nigeria-based company owns sub-Saharan Africa’s biggest cement producer, Dangote Cement. It also has interests in sugar, salt, fertiliser and packaged foods. Dangote also recently commissioned the $19bn petroleum refinery plant, which is now Africa’s largest refinery.

Aliko Dangote was also recently named as among the topmost charitable man in the World by Richtopia, a digital periodical that covers business, economics, and financial news, based in the United Kingdom. This recognition came after he endowed his foundation, the Aliko Dangote Foundation (ADF) to the tune of $1.25 billion.

Aliko Dangote started his Foundation in 1981, with a mission to enhance opportunities for social change through strategic investments that improve health and well-being, promote quality education, and broaden economic empowerment opportunities.

Aliko Dangote Foundation was however incorporated in 1994 as a charity in Lagos, Nigeria. 20 years later, the Foundation has become the largest private Foundation in sub–Saharan Africa, with the largest endowment by a single African donor. The primary focus of Aliko Dangote Foundation is health and nutrition, supported by wrap-around interventions in education, empowerment, and humanitarian relief.

Who's stopping them from protesting?

Pandora Orchins will come and tell us how it can't be compared to Asiwaju convoy

FSBoperator:
Other than that, opening shipping routes is not down to the state governors but the federal govt .



Is it Otti that will announce a new shipping route to his useless state or the FG after due consultation by the NSA and NIMASA.

They underate the power the federal govt wields in this regard .

Amaechi even barred shipping vessels in Nigeria's territorial waters in the Bight of Guinea claiming insecurity.

These he goats have no clue in what they are proposing.

They think opening a sea port inland is down to opening another shop branch .

You're absolutely right

Building Seaports is under the Exclusive List

Nah PDP the main battle go happen between Atiku and Wike faction

mrvitalis:
IMO rivers starts in IMO state.... Onne port is already on a tributary of IMO rivers

Why can't Abia build their own sea port in their own... Akwa ibom can build their own too if they want

The main issue is cost not any other thing

Nobody is stoping Abia State from building a River Port with her money.

There's Onitsha Port in Anambra State too.

Ships can not move in any of the Rivers in the South East and they can't be dredge. The Rivers didn't start and end in the South East.

mrvitalis:
World Bank proposed sea port to be built in IMO state in the 1950s ...

Bring out your evidence

A Seaport will never be created in the South East because the Rivers can never be dredge

The World Bank won't propose such nonsense that's not viable

mrvitalis:
What are they? Sea ? Ocean? No body is saying Onitsha port... He called the locations that are viable

Not body cares about Onitsha port

Do you know the Rivers you're even talking about do not start and end in Igbo Land?

Dredging that River is not as easy as you're trying to make it

Penguin too dey do him own katakata on the thread below

https://www.nairaland.com/7746625/hausa-bakwai-hausa-banza-ancient

Una dey sabi other people history but una no dey sabi una own

It won't have an effect on car prices

It's not Tinubu's fault

Penguin2:
This might be because these two regions were historically one region before the

Just like Nigeria, the Eastern Region was created by the White Men

There was no time the Region was One before it was merge by the British

AfricanColumbus:
They are aboriginal and not slaves.

Yes, on top social media, they are aboriginal

Peter Obi was predicted to win the election on top Social Media, but in Reality, Asiwaju won.

The tiny Igbo population in Kalabari Land are descendants of Igbo slaves. Fact is Fact

AfricanColumbus:
The Igbo aborigines in Okrika feel insulted by such comments

Their forefathers were bought to Kalabari Land as slaves. They are living peacefully on Ijaw Land and I have no issue with them living on our land.

They have the Freedom of Going back to where their forefathers came from though but they are all free to stay.

Karlman:
I have told you this before my good friend, shall we quarrel over it again?
Ijaw have no land, they live on the water!

Yes, on Nairaland

mrvitalis:
What are they? Sea ? Ocean? No body is saying Onitsha port... He called the locations that are viable

Not body cares about Onitsha port

Onitsha River Port nah the only port the FG will build for the South East.

There's a plan for a Seaport in Ibaka and Bonny, you can also search for funding and build another River Port in Anambra State.

There will be no sea port in the South East, Reality is Reality.

Igbos can only claim Okrika, Kalabari, Bonny, Brass etc on top Nairaland and other Social Media Platforms

Ijaw Land will never be part of Igbo land or Biafra.

I have no issue with the Igbos, but Fact nah Fact

Karlman:
Lol!
Is that so? Wow!
You are really a student of history to have been the sole constodian of this until now unknown secret in history!
Pls tell us more, including where from when and how ijaws arrived.
Thank you in advance!

I have no reply to a foolish question abeg, I mean no offense please, but, your questions no make sense

AfricanColumbus:
Okrika was not founded by Ijaws and the Igbos are aborigines.

Yes, on Nairaland

Ijaws from Kalabaris were involve in the buying and selling of Igbo slaves

Not only Ijaws from Kalabaris buy and sell Igbo Slaves though. Some of the descendants of Igbo slaves still live in Kalabari

Kalabari can only be claimed by ignorant Igbos like you on top Social Media

Reality is that, Igbo can never take an inch of Ijaw Land.

I have no issue with the Igbos, but fact is fact.

mrvitalis:
Yes outside lekki that was built this year name another one

You don change mouth

Calabar, Onne, Warri and Apapa Ports are not a River Port like Onitsha Port

There are Igbos whose parents were slaves in Okrika

Okrika was founded by the Ijaws and they were involve in buying and selling Igbo slaves.

There are tiny Igbo population in Okrika, they are descendants of Igbo slaves. Kalabari is 100% Ijaw Land though we have descendants of Igbo slaves living in Kalabari Land.
