That little boy should be in school, not at a useless mortar factory. He's a kid!!!

That little boy has a skill that will feed him and his family in the future and when u nd ur children graduate frm schl he has what it takes to employ u. Africans think going to school only means being in a classroom nd be taught ancient theories written by the white man. Most of u make noise abt going to school and yet no meaningful impact can be traced to going to school in this country.

If u tell me it's flower pot I'll agree with the wastage of our trees but for this I beg to say no.
What are u pounding? The world is embracing technologically processed food and here u are promoting tree cutting and deforestation which I'm sure u know d implication on our ecosystem and climate change even though obi said he doesn't know about climate change.

Hehehe,so I should deny my lineage because of bad road's and the choice of Ochi Idoma?, sorry I can't do that.

The road you showed over there is the responsibility of the government,my people don't construct federal roads,and as for the Ochi Idoma, it's the fight of the God's.It's only fool's who fight for their God's rather the God's should be the ones fighting for his people. Shalom.

Going to school alone doesn’t guarantee common sense, you’re an example.

House rents in Nigeria does not reflect the reality around us. How will people pay for a one-bedroom flat of N1.3M/300/400/500/800 with a minimum wage of 30K?
Abuja and Lagos are overwhelmingly outrageous. The salary/wages structure can only afford rents in trenches and slums
Can’t this be regulated?

Where are the so called educated Nigerians
PhDs master doctor

Nigerians universities and graduate are disgrace to humanities

You must not live in Abuja and Lagos. Go back to your village if you can't afford to pay rent in the city

Nigeria shall be great again, all I can see are people with lots of potential trying so hard to survive in the wilderness. Nigeria’s just need little encouragement by the government and all we be okay. Imagine people working on an equipment without using the right PPE, only if our government can reach out to individuals of this nature by providing the necessary saver machinery’s and educating them on using the right PPE to carry out such tasks Nigeria will be a better place. For instance, take a look at the workers working without there glasses on.

Across the length and breadth of Nigeria, there are local industries making significant contributions to the economy of the country.

One of such important industries is the mortar and pestle-making industry which has lots of factories concentrated around Otukpo community of Benue State.

These factories, which are owned and operated by enterprising young people, use modern tools to produce mortars and pestles from wooden trunks.
Their products are found in homes across the country where they are used for pounding and crushing food ingredients in the kitchen.

They should plant more trees than they're cutting to prevent deforestation and the loss of locust beans which is nutritious.
