Wait until the minimum wage law is signed, and give it 6 months, then see the kind of inflation that will hit Nigeria. What is happening now will be like child's play.
meobizy: Nothing lasts forever. At least they did two decades in the business. I remember eating at one of the last Mr Bigg's spots in Abuja as at 2010.
The one in FHA Lugbe lasted till the pandemic. It has been remodeled as Chicken Republic and Kilimanjaro came calling.
Peledonomy: I recently got a contract and made 400k in profit. I am thinking of investing that money in cassava farming because It is one of the safest crops to plant.
Is this a good idea or I should plant something else?
I just planted a hectare of TME 419.
a) No more buying of gari b) I can even be selling gari c) I can sell cassava stems d) I can use my stems to expand my capacity.
What is there not to love about cassava? A bag of gari now is nearly 60,000 where I am. A mudu is N1,700.
Most people cannot see the big picture. A food crisis is looming. Check the cost of tomatoes and beans, even common pepper. Let the minimum wage bill be signed into law and give Nigeria till the end of 2024. You will see the kind of inflation no one has ever imagined in his life.
I once heard a young preacher say that a custard bucket of tomato will sell for 40,000 in a not too distant time. This was a year ago when same bucket was N2,500 in my location. Now you cannot even see tomato in the market again.
ManirBK: i purchased these in Birnin kebbi, Kara Market today.
1- peppers @700
2-Onion @200
TOTAL- N900
I used to buy this pepper for N100 some time back. Now you are given 4 miserable-looking peppers for N200. Incredible. Even pear now is 4 pieces for N500.
Frost124: Good day nairalanders, thank God this site is a faceless forum... Few weeks ago my dad told me he is HIV positive, when he told me I was disappointed but I made sure I didn't show it and I encouraged him... Him and my mother has been sick for a while and I certainly know he has transferred it to my mum.... My dad was very promiscuous when he was younger even after he married my mom he was still promiscuous. I am the only child and I have been footing the bills for their medical cares I am just 26 years old and I have spent so much and there is more spending still to come.... My father only told me, my mother is not aware of her health status all she thinks it's just a normal sickness happening to her. I have no one to talk to, I don't trust any friends because I believe when I tell them, they will certainly spread the news and you know the stigmatization against HIV patients, it's not good... I am frustrated, depressed and financially drained, sometimes I stay in my room and cry.... To avoid thinking, sometimes I just drink some alcohol... This issue has been in my heart for several weeks I just had to put it on Nairaland to ease my pain. My father just called me today that my mom has been admitted to the hospital, she was too weak to even walk.... Another spending and I am running out of cash, don't know what to do anymore. It wouldn't be this severe if they found out earlier, it's almost late. May God help me and my parents.
Once their viral loads are cut to undetectable and they exercise and eat healthy, they will be fine.
Mariangeles: Fulani chicken ke? Is there such a bird?
Yes, they are very hardy. Mine used to lay 10 eggs average at a go with more than 80% hatching rates. No vaccines, no meds. They are always on the move.
Righteousness2: Your Capacity to understand the Mysteries of the world you reside in is below par.
That is why you engage in all these crap you run around with.
In this life Pursue Wisdom and in all your gettings, get Understanding. You will save yourself from Unnecessary Nonsense
People are disenchanted. This is a result of complete misrule that started from Thabo Mbeki, and went to another level under Jacob Zuma. We are talking about 20 years.
It has ZERO to do with recent events, which are very very recent.
There are too many hoodlums in and around Banex plaza. They have to be rooted out. That's how Boko haram waa able to plant a bomb in nearby Emab years ago. Too many people roaming around with nothing to do around there.
Israel is a sovereign state that does not tolerate terrorists the way Nigeria is tolerating and cajoling bandits and Boko Haram terrorists.
The ICC prosecutor is a joker and he will soon get the same treatment all of Israel's enemies have been getting from time immemorial, as God Almighty is their defender.
If people cannot see the Hand of God in the sudden demise of the president presiding over a state sponsor of terrorism, then too bad.
emkz: The infections occured over a period of 1971 to 1990, long before the recent influx of Nigerian doctors. Blaming Nigerian doctors for something they know nothing about is wicked.
The risk was already known as far back as 1982. The companies making these products refused to destroy the contaminated stock and instead shipped them off to other nations. Many of these landed in Africa as well.
You thank God for little things, God will give you big things.
Stay in that industry, learn all you can about it, and before you know, you will own your own fuel station. I personally know a filling station owner who started as a pump attendant like you.
It is your apartment. You did not borrow to pay for it, so no one can claim ownership of the place.
