penuelway: I am presently in a paid employment but wish to go into agriculture as soon as possible cause the stress here doesn't really worth it.As a kid,i had experience rearing pig in my father's farm back in the village but due to the distance, i can't setup my farm in the village but will prefer lagos or a close by state like Ogun state. i was told lagos state and ogun state government have land reserve for this purpose but the problem has been knowing the right person to talk to and the process to forward.Can someone in the house educate me on what to do?You can send me a mail on penuelwayassociates@gmail.com
Thanks

its is a good move brother. I understand the fact that you need a government accredited pig farm settlement because there are so many benefits attached to it. Well, I operate my piggery business at OKE-ARO piggery Village (the largest Piggery settlement in West Africa) situated at a suburb of ogun state and lagos but controlled by lagos state government. We have quick access to inputs and there is always a ready market for all out-puts. The settlement has more than two thousand (2000) registered farmers for you to know how big it is. A well formed sub-coperative unions are in place and a Mother Body (the Central coperative) also is in place. You can come down to the settlement and I will take around and as well hint you on all the nooks and crannies that associate with the business. U can mail me @: Smithsammy38@yahoo.com.

peterphd: Nice article but number seven spoilt it. Why can't we Africans do something good and take credit for it? Must we give it all to a "god"?

what a pity. See how this young man is killling himself with ignorance. Your Failure is guarranteed without God.

WHIZBRO: Rubbish!!!... When will Nairaland stop all these how to's?
How to bleep ur wife, how to murder your gardener, how to court Angelina Jolie...
Load of b.ulls

KEEP YOUR DIRTY MOiUTH CLOSED!!. you and those who likes the nonsence you vomits here needs an overhaul BRAIN servicing. sorry to say. When will you learn to appreciate good things? Is this post in any how correlate with the nonsence you are talking about. Are you learned at all? Pls, can you kindly tell me what the post DEPICT? Taaaaaaaa! For u ooooo!

POTUT: Lagos State is proceeding with signs of half-measures and official nervousness...whether this will be good or bad depends on a lot of variables that are yet to unfold.

I worked in a formal sector for five years until a three years ago. My PAYE tax was deducted at source and it was reflected in my payslip. I also got a tax identification from the State for one year, I didn't get for the rest of the five years due to several administrative and collaboration incompetencies between the formal sector and the State government.

When I stopped working three years ago, of course my tax stopped going to the government, because there was nothing to tax anymore.
Now I wonder, does Lagos still have my data in their tax database? Did they observe that my tax ID had suddenly stopped spitting taxes? Did they transfer my data to an unemployment database due to inactivity? Did they write me a letter, SMS, phone call to inquire my status? None of the above. Did the State care that I had suddenly become unemployed?

Now this brings me to my question. What is the essence of this exercise? I understand the setting up of the agency - LASRRA, but I don't get the urgency or need to for the mass action. This has always been a major bane of Nigeria, attempting to round up solutions, as opposed to gathering discrete solutions. Let me give you numerous examples, and add this to the tax story I started with.

My two kids were born in a private clinic in Lagos. A day after their births, over two years, I promptly registered them at the population office a stone throw away, located in the same compound as a police station and LCDA. If Lagos has a regulated health sector, then even private clinics are obliged to report births every week. Lagos has a data entry point here.

I live in an area that is fast developing in terms of physical houses and shops. Within the enclosure (which we commonly refer to as 'estates' in Lagos), there was no form of layout or planning, consequently, residents have built houses on irregular-sided streets, making for a nasty and unsightly development. Each time when I have courage to ponder it, I wonder where the government was when these smash-and-grab developments were coming up. Of course we have no paved roads or water supply (as it is in Ikeja and environs, you have to dig your own borehole). However, a waste disposal concessionaire covers the estate, and residents are subscribed to them, paying N1,000.00 monthly. I get receipts from these guys every month, and I wonder, if Lagos State regulate these waste concessionaires, then Lagos will have an accurate demography of the residents in my estate, through our waste disposal subscriptions. Most, if not all of these 'estates' have vibrant residents' associations with elections that produce their excos, and they meet every sanitation saturday to discuss mutual issues. Another data entry point.

I update my vehicle's registration every year, through the popular Autoreg scheme. As part of my fees (N1,500.00), I am charged for SMS notification. My phone number is also entered in this data. Since 2008, I have only received one SMS notification (2009), and after that have never received for the next 4 years. The money has gone somewhere, hasn't it? (but let's leave that for now). Another data entry point for Lagos as a State.

During every election, we pretend it is our first election and vote huge sums of money for voter registration. Meanwhile, right under our noses, thousands of students just passed out through our secondary school system and commonsense demands that we sanction NECO & UTME to furnish us with the list of registrants that year, so we can add them to the eligible voters list. The State can also add the registrants/students of school within the State and correlate their guardian/parent information with whatever existed previously. This is another data entry point.

For those who drop out and continue to learn some trade, if the State has got its acts right, they would learn a trade/do apprenticeship under an already tax-registered artisan. If artisans are required by State laws to divulge certain information (e.g number of apprentices working under you and their names) every year in their tax returns, then the State can source an applaudable percentage of the demographic data it requires to do anything. Another data entry point.

When cases are brought to the State magistrate courts (and other courts in the State), another data entry point is available.
There are many more potential data entry points for Lagos, but these will do for now. My point is restated, why do we enjoy rounding up solutions in Nigeria?

The police does it through mass arrests instead of putting together discrete pieces of evidence.
FRSC does it through en masse vehicle re-registration instead of collecting individual data on every vehicle license and DL renewal across the country (facilitated by honest collaborations with State governments).
INEC does same every four years instead of collaborating with hospitals/morgues (for death certificate data), schools (for SSCE/NECO/UTME registration data), Immigrations (for passport application/renewal data). Countless agencies of government engage in the same en masse, knee-jerk and momentary solutions.

We often accuse the FG of practicing a unitary system, in turn, the States also practice unitary systems by stifling the autonomy of the LGs (even through their laws and the ones sponsored by their senators and reps) and concentrating everything upon the executive governor's office, instead of strengthening the services and institutions I mentioned in the examples above. Lagos, and indeed any other State can generate all the demographic data it needs by strengthening and reforming its local institutions, not by the unitary act of registering residents en masse, as if there is about to be one huge roll call event...or is there?

How is it going with the Lagos drivers' license thing? Active or dormant?

I wish Lagos success in another en masse, rounded-up, unitary solution to the challenges that come with statehood.

you try ooooo! You typed this long in other to show your foolishness. The fact that you are educated does not mean your are knowledgeable figure. All your assertions here has no single usefullness. Mind you, "Different data for different purpose" so, you want to prove that you are smart right? Taaaa!

toothpaste:

Them get server? Who go host the database? WHAT IS THE DATA PRIVACY ARRANGEMENT?

All na wash

you think they are a fool like you? You just want to talk for the sake of it.

Hello @ poster, am really impressed to come accross this your post. The business u intiate here is a great niche for a smart enterpreneur, only what it requires is to create the market for it and make your order. I bet it with you, the problem of majority of nigerians is not the capital to kick-start a business but what available business to invest in. I think have seen a business opportunity. now, it's only for me to go out there and carve a market niche for myself and then proceed to make my first order.

Sometimes we want a get well quick solution, but this does not work in some cases. What struck me about what you have written about yourself is that you say you are not a dullard. And you always do well in your work. Is it possible that you also have a very quick mind and so that rate at which your thoughts are coming and the rate at which you express yourself do not balance hence it comes out as stammering. As I say I am no expert, but you need to observe yourself quietly and gently and make a note of the times when you find yourself stammering and reflect deeply on what caused it or why you did.

No matter what you find out, you can overcome this. Pray to the Lord to help you. And also try talking slowly so that you do not stammer. It does not matter how long you take to make the sentence, but concentrate on talking as slowly as possible without stammering. Then try to do this as a main goal. Eventually you want to aim to being a very slow talker until you are no longer stammering. This should take you at least 6 months - 1 year of active concentration. Practice , Practice Practice. And with quiet confidence for each successful step taken, you will be able to take another one. You are building a house here and each building block needs to stand or sit firmly before the next one is used. Good Luck.

you took your valuable time to post all these in other help someone in need, indeed, am so grateful!. Because you have done this, I wholeheartedly pray for you that all your heart desires be granted unto you in the name of God. Thanks. I will go through each one of them.

xtianh: So your government left roads that are accrued to them and are facing FG roads where they will siphon more money and thereafter concession it.

most of you people lack what we call analytical manner!.even las vegas of the United State has some roads that are not worthy of publication simply because of its "bad condition". And mind u, the state that has the fastest growing economy in africa is lagos.....development is measured with level of Ifrastructure,Education,Life expectant rate,GNP,Per capital income,Standard of leaving and Security among others....only Blind,Illiterate and Naive-Hearted person would say LAGOS STATE is not develping..
