How Africans are able to eat any protein will always surprise me. Poverty must be the biggest motivation for diverse gut bacteria.
is poverty also responsible for the Chinese eating all manners of animals including coakroaches and pangolin?

AgricultureShould I Do It Or Not? by Phoenix873(op): 6:23pm On Jun 25, 2025
Good evening wonderful people.

I will go straight to the point.

I presently work as a barber in small street side shop I rented less than 2 years ago.

The reason I moved to my present shop is so that I can be close to my uncompleted house which happens to be in the same town as my present shop even though the distance is quiet long enough to require motorcycle transportation from my uncompleted house to my present shop and vice versa.

It was the day I moved into my uncompleted house that I also moved to my present shop and I have been shuttling between home and shop since then.

For some weeks now, especially since the commencement of the rainy season, I have been having a strong urge to leave my present shop and move permanently to my house to be living there and also doing my barbing business.

This is because, I usually barb neighbors in my house in the morning before I set out to go to my shop, meaning, they already know me as a barber and I already have a shop built as part of my house exterior for the purpose of using it as a barbing salon later.

The advantage of permanently relocating and working from home includes, I will be the only barber serving the entire rural community and hopefully make money doing so. The stoppage of the daily 1k I spent on okada transport from home to shop and vice-versa, an opportunity for me to fully concentrate on farming my small backyard which is always overgrown with weed and always disturbed by trespassing neighbors and grazing fulani cows whenever I plant crops like corn or cassava.

I am passionate about agriculture, both crops and animal like chicken rearing and I feel being permanently at home will enable me take advantage of the rainy season to cultivate the half plot of space in my backyard by planting crops and better monitor it well. Along with rearing chickens and goats.


The main disadvantage is that, the area being rural, is not yet electrified by NEPA even though the process is ongoing with the procurement of a transformer and it is likely to take a long time. And the community is not yet as populated as the community of my present shop.

I have a standby generator I intended to use along with battery operated clippers to overcome the power issue.

My present barbing salon is doing fairly well, and leaving it would mean taking the risk to leave my present loyal customers and start all over again with my neighbors and other possible customers.

I am a single guy with no kid or wife yet and enjoys my lone company as an introvert.

I will like to hear your informed opinion on whether I should take the risk or not?
BusinessRe: Should I Take The Risk Or Not by Phoenix873(op): 2:57pm On Jun 25, 2025
Grateful for all the advices and opinions, they have given me valuable insights to ponder on.

The majority opinion leans towards maintaining my present shop while also working towards maximizing my house shop. I will put that in mind.

Unless I get several other admonitions like the one give by jaymoney1, encouraging me to take the risk and relocate home permanently, I am inclined towards taking the easier option of maintaining the status quo. Thank you all very much. I welcome further opinions from others.

TravelRe: Help In Getting Alternative Direction From Iyana Ilogbo To Isara Remo by Phoenix873(op): 12:52pm On Nov 12, 2024
Mille:
I don't know about Illogbo and Ota axis.

* Can you get a bus going to Ibadan from Illogbo? That would have been much better cos Isara is along the Lagos-Ibadan expressway, just after Ogere. You can surely alight there. Alternatively, you can go to Berger or Oshodi to take Ibadan bus, whichever you know the route with public transportation

* Can you get Sagamu bus from Sango or Illogbo? If you can get to Sagamu, you can get to Isara
thanks bro. I just checked Isara on Google maps, and truly, it is a long the lagos-Ibadan expressway and I think that should be the better option. Now, I will look around to see if I can get a bus in Ilogbo going that route.

Thanks again🙏
TravelHelp In Getting Alternative Direction From Iyana Ilogbo To Isara Remo by Phoenix873(op): 6:21pm On Nov 11, 2024
Good evening everyone.

I presently reside in Ilogbo town in Ado-Odo Ota local government.

I have an event to attend in to attend in Isara Remo in Ijebu North local government.

I was given direction to the event venue and the estimated cost of transportation to and fro is put at 12k, which I consider too high considering I am not so financially buoyant.

The directions given to me involves boarding a bus from Iyana Ilogbo to Abeokuta. I am to drop at brewery garage in Abeokuta. From there, I am to enter a cab going to Kuto garage. From Kuto garage, I am to enter a cab going to Remo, to alight at the last bus stop. Then find another cab going Isara and alight at Sabo. From Sabo, I am to take a bike to the event venue in Apalara which is in front of the magistrate court.

I would like people who are familiar with routes to Isara in Ijebu give me possible alternative routes I can take which will be cheaper. Maybe instead of going to Abeokuta, I can go to Sango Ota instead and find a bus there straight to Ijebu. I don't know.

Thanks I'm anticipation of your valuable responses.

Date plants are both male and female. You need the two to be able to get some fruit.

Hope you didn't plant just one and be waiting to pluck lots of dates
apart from planting male and female varieties, the environment also plays an important role in their fruiting. Dates are prefer arid climates to fruit which is why they only grow in northern Nigeria and the middle east

Your last line is why I tell anyone I care to meet for free anywhere I go in the world that Nigerian politicians are better than Nigerian citizens and are not at fault for the abysmal state of the country. After all who wouldn’t oppress people that deserved to be oppressed

People that if the rest of the world hear how they think, they will not believe their ears and might attempt colonizing them again

Nigerian citizens are scary, just see this fucking mentality
don't be deceived. He is not an ordinary citizen but one of the paid ass licker of the government or a member of their political party.
No normal literate Nigerian who understands that it is the duty of government to provide basic necessities will want to cheer them for doing their job.

Do you notice the roads don’t have drainages?

Dapo will build small roads without drainage,how long will the road survives erosion?

Dapo is not spending his personal money but state funds on this roads and he is still stingy spending on quality good roads

Lagos and Ogun are totally opposite even though they are neighbors

Lagos state government should take over Sango,mowe,arepo and every suburb in Ogun state

Ogun state and bad leadership 5&6
There is actually a drainage on the road but it is uncovered and narrow which makes it of poor standard. Ordinary LCDA chairmen in Lagos are building better inner Street roads with solid covered drainage. Dapo is a big mistake.

PoliticsRe: Edo Lady Mocks Obaseki For Complaining About The Commissioner Of Police by Phoenix873: 7:40am On Sep 18, 2024
The forces against Obaseki are numerous and powerful, due largely to his betrayal nature.

Wike, for one, has a personal grudge to settle with him and his influence is already being suspected in the upcoming governorship election with the state REC and new police commissioner touted as being partial to him.

What of Phillip Shaibu? Adams Oshiomhole?
Even Tinubu himself has a grudge against Obaseki for the 'Edo no be Lagos' slogan which ridicules his attempts to control Edo like Lagos by installing Ize Iyanu as governor in 2020
