Agriculture › Re: What Is Nigeria's Biggest Agricultural Export Now? by sonnie10:
Natural2Heal:
Exporting raw agricultural produce is bad for our economy. Rather we should think of how to add value to our cash crops e.g cocoa, cashews, rubber etc before exporting it.

Ivory Coast is the biggest exporter of cocoa in Africa and also an importer of chocolate. Is there any sense in that?
Very correct. Did you know that cocoa is sold for #750k per metric ton? Meaning 750 naira per kilogram ( $1 per kg).
Now think of it, a bar of chocolate is about the same price $1 each.
I kg of cocoa can make up to 100 bars of chocolates.
The question is, who is making that profit off of the local farmers?
The answer is simple. Multinationals. They set these prices making it difficult for farmer to enjoy their sweat.
A full grown man with family would have to toll under the scorching sun for a whole day to process 1kg of cocoa just for a dollar. An amount a child in developed country can spend without a second thought on chocolate.
This life no balance!

Can we export cassava and corn to increase the dollar reserves huh
Trust me, that cassava and corn export rehoeric is scam. Nigeria corn can’t beat US corn in international markets.
Cassava is not staples food in most rich countries and there are better cheaper alternatives for industrial starch. Cassava is only a local champion.
Those two items won’t move a needle in Nigeria foreign earnings.

The drunkard even stopped the naira4dollar policy that was encouraging the diasporians to send dollars to Nigeria every month and helped to increase the supply.
If the receiver would get the money at the same amount they got before the policy change, I don’t see why diasporas wouldn’t want to send.

You don’t increase production
Your don’t increase export
Your don’t increase direct foreign investments
You still have insecurity
Oil price continues to fall
Corruption is at the highest level
Import is at highest level
You continue to borrow heavily and pay heavily on interest from your oil revenue

Yet you expect dollars to be abundant.
Ignoring basic economics of supply and demand

No amount of wishes will do it. The worst is dollar is not even controlled by CBN. Propaganda policies won’t cut it.

Fix the rot from the root.

Foreign Affairs › Re: COUP UPDATES: Putin Leaves Moscow | Machine Gun Positions Around Moscow by sonnie10: 6:30pm On Jun 24, 2023
Damn it Putin! Just tell your soldiers to withdraw and go home from Ukrain.

All I see in this is Putin trying to save face. He is ashamed of abandoning his Ukraine war. Now he is fronting this Wargner group to act as internal opposition.
To please his ego, he would rather have it that Wargner disrupted the war than accept being defeated or voluntarily pull out of Ukraine.
It’s all about pride, but at the end he might be kicked out by these same people.

They didn't tender the document they have, they merely specified in the court summon letter that they have the survey they did in 1990 and the stamp duty to back up for the fact, and the agreement with the seller (Let's use MR A as the seller).

The person we got it from bought thr land from the true land owners, the actual family (those that owns the whole village)/as far back as 20years ago and they also have the survey, agreement and co to back it up. After MR A died, MR A's family and lawyer said the whole area belongs to their father and that people should repurchase the land or risk losing it. So the people we bought it from paid another money for the land to late Mr. A's family.


So that's it.
Can one land have two surveys? I believe one would be real and the other not real.

I think I have found solution to evade disaster from collapse of tank stand.
This is just and idea,but engineers could look into the practicality. Some building structural factors should be considered to maintain the building integrity. For example, how much force a free hanging filled water tank would exact on the the pillar of the building.
1) After building the tank stand
2) Get heavy metal chain for each tank
3 ) Make anchors on the building wall at the level close to the tanks ( preferably at pillars)
4) Anchor each tank with the chain to the wall ( without tension)
5)when stand collapses the chain will sustain the tanks( or possibly the weight/ tension of water could tear the free hanging tank and only water will discharge)
6) This would be a temporary safety measure till tank is recovered.

Disclaimer: I don’t know o! Don’t try this at home
Another solution could be to erect another arrowhead metal pipe right under each tank. When the tank falls, it falls on the arrowhead, get pierced and water discharges.

It is not sir.it will be termed as improper service.see odey vs pdp and alaga 2021 supra..

Let me also tell you that even if obi succeed in proving that results were not transmitted,obi will still have to show how it affected the overall outcome
No. Improper service is when you do not have evidence to show that you actually delivered to the address.
If you have an adolescent child in school and he comes home and say to you, “Dad look, I came first in my class.” He then proceeds to show you a blurred sheet of paper.
What would you do?

Irev is not
Why was it brought during the presidential elections?
Why was Yakubu caught on camera saying that he will use it?
Why did they upload some documents on it ?
Why did INEC produce and issued those documents as CTC of the presidential results?
Is that why INEC have objected to those evidence?

The 2022 electoral act didn't affect terms of evidences.the osun judgment killed irev
Does the Court make laws? Is the electoral act not a law?
Is IREV not part of the electoral act?
Is the court selective on what law to enforce?

Prove that inec didn't use electronic
You have consistently affirmed that INEC used electronic technology.
You have also consistently said that the Prof relied only on these electronic information on IREV for his work.

You have also said the work of the Prof is inconsistent or incomplete because he did not incorporate the paper copies.

Do you agree with him that the incomplete data for IREV, cannot be used to determine who won the elections?

The sensible thing to do is to cross check other copies and see who is lying
The result INEC announced in favor of APC does not exist anywhere. It’s was made up .
Just like you made up stories about the Profs testimony.
Till now, you are still struggling to find evidence to support your claims

You fall back to the copies of the agents and police.by the way,no one is alleging manipulation at collation point.
The cases is simple. INEC announced results that do not exist anywhere, both on IREV and on paper copies at every level of collation points to favor APC.
To cover up their lies they uploaded blurred images.
I have said it before, cover-ups are more demanding than the actual deeds.
Just like you tried to cover up your lies today on the Profs testimony by quoting an irrelevant portion of the proceeding when asked to provide evidence of your false claims.

To lie is intentional but sometimes it is out of compulsive behavior. You might be doing it because it feels good.
How does lying make you feel?
You have failed to quote where the Prof stated that the IREV is not a collation system.
Do you still stand on your previous statement that there were inconsistencies in the Prof’s testimony?
