In order to achieve our potential as a nation, we need a government that will fix the power situation,simple. Fix the power situation and watch Nigeria grow beyond our imaginations. Without power we will remain a sleeping giant

yes how can we fix power. The issue is how?

Actually, closed-rnage ranching does not require so much land to do it. Yes, you can do open-range ranching and allow the animals to roam about in the wilderness, just as you can do closed-range ranching where you set up areas for animals of various ages and sizes and you feed them with grass and other feeds.

I am advocating closed-range ranching here.

Israel does not have much land, yet it produces more beef than Nigeria using closed-range ranching method. Pictures below are how Israel achieved the feat of one of the biggest beef and poultry producers in the world on a small parcel of land. We can definitely hire an Israeli expert to help our local ranchers with knowledge on how to efficiently produce.

i like this bro..this better than poultry. When cow can sell for up to 150k. If u sell 4 cows in a month...na 600k. Good business... and u can fence ur land with high wall...no fulani incusion

The Urgent Need for Private Cattle Ranches in Igboland

From the events and political maneuvers in Nigeria, it is evident that the continued dependence on solely Fulani herdsmen for beef supply to southern Nigeria is very very dangerous. We have seen villages wiped out and farmlands turned into grazing fields by these people, while the so called Federal Government and it's security agencies are in close collaboration with these herdsmen to dominate and totally exterminate these communities.

These crimes will continue as Nigerians (ESPECIALLY SOUTHERNERS AND IGBOS) continue the insatiable appetite for beef. It is not wrong to eat beef, but we must revive our historical cultivation of our own breed of cow (Efi-Igbo) and goats. The government should assist private entrepreneurs to set up cattle and goat ranches all over the region to at least provide some of the beef supply in southern Nigeria.

In traditional Igbo society, we keep our animals at home and go fend grass from the bush for them. We NEVER let our animals out of the compound to go and graze on people's farms because we are too lazy to bring the grass to them. Our traditional practice of raising animals is what is called closed-range ranching. That is what we must revive and farm these closed-range ranches all over the region as culturally acceptable method of ranching animals in Igbo culture.


We know the Fulanis in government will try all sorts of gimmicks to frustrate private ranches from being set up in Igboland or anywhere in the south. But it is imperative that modern cattle ranching begin immediately to forestall the clashes and murder of villages by these herdsmen. Besides it is a crucial food security issue for a whole region of the country to depend completely on just one source of beef supply from Fulani herdsmen. Let multiple private entrepreneurs set up commercial ranches and help stop some of the wicked acts happening now in Nigeria.

I am pleading with our business people and government officials to urgently pass a legislation that will prioritize and facilitate the setting up of private ranches all over the region. If Kenya, Uganda, Indonesia etc have managed to set up modern commercial ranches, we can also do the same here.

Ekene m unu!

i support this...i wanted to start cattle ranch in enugu b4 but got discouraged by so many things...i will look at it again

Though I support Biafra and disintegration, the truth is that I will actually choose a Nigeria that works over Biafra.
The reason is because a Nigeria that works could actually be Africa's first global power. A Biafra that works can hardly be that. Nigeria has the population to be a major global player. All the little countries we want to break Nigeria into doesn't have that potential.
So I ask the question: how can we actually move Nigeria from third world to developed status within the next 50 years?
What do we have to do or change or introduce in our socio/politico/economic scene to do that within the next 50 years? To move our gdp from $500 billion to $1 trillion, to reduce our poor population and improve all infrastructure to developed standards.

I need intelligent contributions on this without 'afonja' 'Igbo' 'aboki' jibes. Without APC or PDP nonsense. Say what you think can be done.

Mynd44 lalasticlala seun take this to front page if you can. Lets see what our internet age youths think could make Nigeria great and make politicians to start working and stop stealing or fooling around. Afterall Nairaland is against secession.

Patrioticooduan:
That is not enough reason why you should be encouraging Yorubas to marry those Ibos. We don't want them. Yes! Obasanjo failed, but are Ibo leaders any better? How many of them support Biafra? We can leave Nigeria without Ibos help. Nigeria is spliting gradually.

this thread really pain u

Cjrane2:
Bro, abeg leave Chino. I no get his time now. Been very busy lately.
Truth is that Nigerian statistics isn't even worth the paper it's printed on. Any stats. from "Nigeria", i don't even bother to look at it at all. Look at Osun that is almost bankrupt doing better than Anambra and Enugu

Chino's concern is simply to mock Abagworo that Anambra is better than Imo and other SE states. My concern is to make sure the entire SE cultivate and specialize in their area of comparative advantage and we plan our cities to a decent international level where foreigners will gladly want to live in the flats in Awada or Obosi and have same living standard as living in China, Beirut or Cairo. I want us to CHANGE our attitude of not doing anything to international standard and do everything to compete internationally. Let our apartment buildings and flats compete with what is in Indonesia or Thailand or China. Let tourists feel comfortable renting a flat in Obosi and living there.

Please, please please, spare me Nigerian voodoo statistics.
I don't have time to waste on childish forgeries called Nigerian statistics

nna na now i understand the bestviewer guy..childish if u ask me.

So it was all about gloating about anambra progress...chai...who allow these kids into igbo threads? We are happy igboland is making progress gradually and some kid is gloating that his own section of igboland is ''on top''. Chai...i will stop replying the kid..and pls i ask others viewing this thread to stop replying to bestviewer

bestviewer:
Is it only Kogi that's on the list? Now it is rubbish because it is very unfavorable. I am very sure that if a state like Anambra is low on the list, stup1d and useless people like you would still be talking about it for days here. Bunch of useless hypocrites.

i honestly dont even know wat u are talkin about...for real? Is this another form of ''anambra is the greatest igbos'' nonsense...

Wat exactly is ur point and wat exactly do u want us to discuss

bestviewer:
Hehehehe. I posted this for a purpose but just look at how all these hypocrites avoided it like a plague. The core of discussion for SE development should center on this report but ITK people like Cjrane doesn't want to discuss it but will always be quick to jump on matters he has no clue to.

lol kogi is doing better than enugu

Have u ever been to kogi? Abeg stop posting trash on this thread...if u have a reasonable topic to discuss...be specific

EzeIgboNwaChukwu:
hope you know that the Igbos in Asaba are just settlers that would be chased back to the Yeast Asaba belongs to the Urhobos

Ika people of agbor in delta state, igbanke people of Edo and ndoni, ikwerre people of rivers have rejected being affiliated to the Igbos.
No one wants to associate with flat heads.
Osus

ok wen will u chase them back? Which year?

Xander85:
Can anyone in the know please tell us if these new areas gov't has approved for housing estates have been surveyed and properly serviced with the necessary infrastructure before plots are sold and building of houses begins?

Our development should be planned and in keeping with accepted best practices in developed countries of the world. After all, we're aiming for the Dubai model aren't we?

lol...it will only happen if the 36 states are given full hand to function like mini countries...then ppl will realise that they are on your own...fly or die.

That is when u will see a new nigeria..for now na oil politics we dey play...govt is still keeping huge civil service and paying only salary

And another thing is that we contribute money to build big churches in the east...but cant contribute to tar our dirty streets.

IGBOmarryme:
True True Yorober no dey fine, And they will be blaming Igbo men for not marrying from that side, who wants Tinubu for a son.

or obasanjo?

Iamgrey5:
I have met more than four urobos and they don't hate Yorubas,

They only have this competitive mentality to which tribe is superior to the other, which Edos in general are quite known for having.


They have some cultural similarities with Edo, ishekiri and Yorubas

Hateful people are present everywhere bruv, perhaps you met the ones filled with hatred.


Nonetheless, do let anyone have your hate.

A person with a hateful nature is on a journey of self destruction. He/she will eventually hate everything and anything and watch those he/she loathes achieve alot in life effortlessly. The pain of watching such achievements will eventually consume him/her.


Peace bruv.

funny the person u are preaching to is filled with hate for igbos...i opened a thread calling for igbos and yorubas to wrk together..the dude came to the thread and wrote that he hates igbo and will neva wrk with us...

If anybody go die of hate...na the ediot

spyder880:
Teaser..... Can anyone guess where this place is in Igboland?

I will be back soon..

pls try and show asaba too sometime

Zirah:
Oro n la, Oro gidi, Omo yoruba gi di.

Exactly how I feel about igbos. Hate them die.

igbo amaka
No dirty tribal marks

ariesbull:
Igbo are unique ..trust me

i tell u.

CyynthiaKiss:
Nobody is against you dabbling into a political abyss, but dragging igbos along is when you are going to receive the insults and bashing you never expected.

You are free to campaign for Buhari like other lunatiiics, but hiding under " Igbo presidency" to campaign for Buhari"s second tenure by shouting
"Vote Buhari and get Igbo presidency" won't be allowed. That blackmail won't work !

Buhari doesn't have key to the success of Igbos. Igbos have faced the worst in the past, they have moved on and surpassed all in every ramification.
Go back to the recent report released three months ago.... SE & SS have the least poverty rate in Nigeria.
Northerners have produced more heads of states, but the survival of their masses lies on the Int. donors.
Majority of these A.P.C " Igbo presidency chanters" are aware that Buhari is a failure, some of them are ashamed of campaigning for Buhari openly, hence hiding under " Igbo presidency" to campaign for a terrorist for a second tenure.

Telling Igbos to support Buhari is like indirectly telling them to support the killings that is going on in this country..

Igbos know how they can get what they want, but no through Buhari who could not help himself in 2003, 2007 and 2011 until SW and NC that have deserted him today came for his rescue in 2015.
What more can I say other than a big congratulation to Kenneth Okonkwo while heading to a political Golgotha.

Andy okeke fvck up sha...and igbos should note that buhari has not used his own mouth to promise igbo presidency...so we wont be deceived

BabaRamota1980:
Yoruba guys, no mind aunty Ronke. This is her way of hitting back at Davido. He went for Ibo instead of Yoruba. She cant come out straight and put it like that. This is the spin for her consolation.

Dont ge mad at your sister. To every Ronke do you know how many Yoruba girls are dying to be with you?

Na Davido piss the girl off.

davido is with igbo girl...ronke is with igbo boy...chai e come be like yorobàs dey hustle to marry igbo

mercyville:

Yes,he pain me.

i know

mercyville:

e pain u

Patrioticooduan:
This one is nothing but a bastard. How many people have you dated to arrive at such conclusion? See as you be. Grosteque creature. A girl raised in a responsible Yoruba home will never say this.
Omo ale jati jati ni oo.

chai...wetin ronke ur sister talk pain u...hahaha

KINGOFTHEEAST:
afonja you can't hide your identity no matter how much you hide yourself like I said I will expose you

like i said...follow me

oooduancalmdown:
Stupid thread. Mr OP, listen and listen very well. Yorubas will never form alliance with flat-heads from the East. I am Yoruba and I will never support it. We don't like Ibos at all and w4e don't want anything to do with them. Focus more on how to achieve Biafra while we Yorubas focus more on our Odua Republic. I am glad some Benin people are now supporting Nigeria disintegration. Yes! We want Kwara state in the West but we can't trust or unite with Iboes to get it for us. We can do that on our own. Right from the time this shytehole was created, my people have never aligned with flat-heads and it will never happen - not in this life or the next

lol all i can tell u is oduduwa calm down

Truth is that neither igbos or yorobàs alone can leave this shit hole. U can try like we did in 1967...u will fail like we did in 1970.

Since we have been mumuing ourself in d south playing individual politics, the north has been winning.
They are building mega cities in abuja kano and kaduna while ur ibadan is the biggest shithole in westafrica.

U can support a united south that will free us all from the north...or u can stick to ur high horse and watch the north keep fvcking the entire south with uncircumsises diçk like they fvcked abiola and wife
oooduancalmdown

Sharpshooota:
They might be right about Buhari


But Ekweremadu and all those house members are thieves ....

How can one man have more than 30 properties scattered around the country and abroad... Haba

They should cease everything from all of them
Auction it and put the money in capital projects..

u are afonja

fyneguy:
Are you saying the SW must concede to the candidate supported by the SE and SS? What stopped the SE and SS from backing the candidate supported by the SW?

The sw had no business backing buhari in 2015...the idea of osinbajo or even tinubu as vp not withstanding...gej was more likely to favour the west in his 2nd term than buhari was of favouring the west..

That said, we must move on. The sw and se need to come together and create ONE power bloc...regardless of the outcome of 2019 polls. We have to arise from the ashes of 2019 electioneering as one power bloc...
Until we do, restructure will never happen, the yoruba population will never be brought in one sw and neither will the east get one more state..

U see there is nothing a benue man has in common with a sokoto man...but when politics come, they play as one north..we need to learn to play as one south and not back bitting each other

Daewang:
My brother this is what we have been saying. Why should we struggle and sacrifice for Biafra if Biafra is going to be a mini nigeria? It means there is no point and we are of all men most miserable. The problem is that if you disagree with these IPOB members they will begin to call you afonja. One even went as far as including edo, just imagine. At a point in time they even said we should remove the capital from Enugu(our eternal capital) to portharcourt just to please SS. These guys have brought untold insults to Alaigbo by their behaviour.

As in eh i tire.

Well i like kanu...he is the reason why i became interested in biafra...but some of his fellowers just reason stupidly...i am one of his followers but am not a fool.

I can agree however that if things get serious, moving our capital to p.h to get the ikwerres would be a smart move..since nobody dey chop capital. But to begin include edo, ijaw ibibio and other non igbos is a no no. Ikwerre people are igbo so giving them our capital is no issue...its still igboland

aniomafirstson:
lol he is Igbo

nna like seriously o!! These kids wan yeye me...they dont realise that if we are to get anioma state that we would need the yoro folks...because the north will always try to resist state creation

Many didnt even read the post

Daewang:
N'afa Jesus Christ onye nwe anyi.

one ipob guy called kingoftheeast dey vex for me because i say i dont want niger delta in biafra...he is even calling me yorobà..the thing ppl like him dont know is that niger delta is a restive zone...if u add them into biafra...u will have to fight the whole nigeria..we did that b4 and we lost..

If per chance u win nigeria in a war...u will still have to contend with terrorism and agitation from these niger delta folks later...u will just be going from frying pan to pot.

Kingoftheeast come and destroy this one too

Kingoftheeast come and destroy this one

KINGOFTHEEAST:
guy you are simply a Yoruba boy now you want turn it around afonja listen I'm on you and I will destroy every thread you create

follow me...u might come to eventually agree with me

KINGOFTHEEAST:
selempe Yoruba boy. you just can't hide it

are u sure u are not juliusmalema? Cos that the only person here who can accuse me of being yoròba...

KINGOFTHEEAST:
Yoruba get behind ,Yoruba Muslims bore me

ok
