When did he not have money in his bank account? This boy can lie o!

Sharp! Sharp!

Shocked ke?.....The real drama is about to begin but truth be told, who amongst them is seeking those positions with interests of Nigerians at heart? l can not vouch for any of them because they all have litany of non-representation trailing them. lt is a clash of ego and interests, who will be in a position to decide who gets what and not how the lives of Nigerians would be improved!

jethro2:
That's interesting.
Wish we can upgrade the Nigeria farmers to that level. We don't have measurement, grade/scale or packaging for vegetables.
There is currently no standard market for fresh vegetables. People scouts every where

Supermarkets do visit farms to verify their process for quality control. The customer picks as much he/she wants and go weigh it. l always pick about 400gm of okra which l pay N100 for, it happens to be the same quantity l buy in open markets in Lagos for the same N100 but in a better atmosphere!

jethro2:
Okro is mostly sold in the open market in Nigeria. Hardly will you see supermarket selling okro.

While here, Okra, Ata rodo, green, shoko, ewedu is more guaranteed to be found in the veggie section of supermarkets than in the open market. Weighing ewedu on the scale still make me laugh!

Fruiting continues.......... Fruit flies is a threat. Most fruits get rot

The picture is A fruit fly trap hanging on a mango tree with dead fruit flies. lt attracts males, which are lured into the trap thinking they are heading to females for mating but unknown to them, the scented trap is laced with some chemical that kills males. The more males that die, the lower the chances of fertilisation, meaning that finally, the pests are eradicated. One trap can attract insects from as far as a kilometre away but it is advisable to use each (trap) for a quarter acre piece of land. The trap can last up to three months before being changed. It can catch up to 1,500 male fruit flies. l am told it costs about N950 each here in Kenya.

l have been expecting the denial of that statement!

D'banji no be small pikin o!

It is far better than the subsidy regime!

l wish more buyers would ignore our crude, so we will be forced to change direction!

OLAMIMO12:
You mean N250/Kg in Kenya?

Yes though the Supermarkets buy from farmers for about N150/kg. Most of Kenyans don't know what Okra is, it is mostly foreigners that eat it here. For Ewedu, they grow it but prepare it fresh milk!

Good...his intervention is needed as he needs to remind them why they were elected.

l just tire for these politicians!

That is a very good question.
My brother still has the papers.thats y am asking for opinions on how to go about it.
The last time I spoke to him, he was asking me to tell my brother to give him the papers.
I want to know if I can charge the buyer for buying stolen car. How u go buy car without papers?? Nobody is ready to go arrest him cos he's inlaw(hubby's older brother).
I am so angry

As long as your brother has the documents and you have the records of remittance sent to him and since you have exhausted the option of using your family to get him to repay, get the law enforcement agency involved as he committed a crime irrespective of him being family. He would be forced to produce the buyer and the car he sold to him/her. l recall a cousin my father got locked up way back in the 90's he was also into clearing and being family, my father also gave him the job of clearing the 3 vehicles (2 cars and a Mitsubishi bus) he imported from Germany.

My cousin played a fast one on my dad, despite the fact we were also based in Lagos like him. He did clear and delivered the 2 cars but started telling stories regarding the bus, giving one excuse to another and to cut the long story short in one of my father's visit to the village he found out that my cousin had actually cleared the bus, took it to Aba (you know Eastern transporters love Mitsubishi buses very much) and made a good sale out of it. My father came back to Lagos, invited him to our house and while he was there he was picked up by the Police, As expected, extended family members began to beg though he was released from police custody but it was after his parents and siblings signed an undertaking to refund the money and this they did after four months. One has to be drastic with family members to put them in check.

Really colourful.

How did he sell the car while your brother has the documents?

If he feels safer with him, no wahala!

How true is this?

Boko Haramites...children of a deity!

Another version!

l really do not have good memory of him.

A good development.

These States are not poor in resources but lack leaders who can harness them!

So sad.

It was expected.

Hydroponics farming(another way of farming): I came across this video, it was too inspiring not to share, you grow veges in a stacks without any use of soil (you dont even have to go to the village - all you need is space), you only use water mixed with all minerals nutrients solution that a plant needs- thats it

That is Peter Chege, he is the number one person when it comes to hydroponics in Kenya. l remember hearing him on BBC saying he has been invited to Nigeria by a government agency.

Even a baby in the womb will do yimu to this statement...all the Rogers collected across Nigeria on a daily basis is enough to finance the budgets of some small poor African countries!

Denn:
What will I do differently?

I intend to complete the bore hole project. I have hired a new bore hole contractor who is trying to repair the bore hole at the moment.

I will complete my irrigation project. Just a few things remaining .

I will build a greenhouse for my cucumbers.

I will source for new markets. Those market women are not from this world when it comes to haggling.

I will improve my process using the learning points I have noticed

As per growing your cucumber in a greenhouse, watch this short video to give you an idea and multiply by 2 whatever amount you hear in it to give you the Naira equivalent.
