Does anyone know any seasoned, experienced, and motivated researcher on BSFL who would like to work in a small BSFL start up company in the US? An ideal suitable candidate has to be very interested in this line of work, in addition to having experience doing it. Please kindly respond to this message and then we can start discussing outside this forum. Thanks

There is a difference between LEGAL and ILLEGAL immigration. I support LEGAL IMMIGRATION BUT NOT ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION. ALL ILLEGALS ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD SHOULD BE DEPORTED. OF COURSE REFUGEES ARE NOT ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS BECAUSE THE HOST COUNTRY ACCEPTED THEM. THOSE EDO/BENIN, YORUBA AND IGBO WHO TROOP TO EUROPE ILLEGAL SHOULD ALL BE DEPORTED.

You Comment like someone who is not married. The poster has given a very valuable advice from his experience. Reading this you can decipher from a man who is matured and understands consequences.

Learn from him
Actually most commenting on here appear unmarried and therefore have zero knowledge of what marriage is about.

Hmmm..Nigerians and their unfounded statistical figures...All woman don't think like this...I've met and I know women who do t reason like this at all....My Cousin's husband ....from his own mouth, told me how his FIL (who was notably rich) told him I have no expectation for you, told him he never started from the top too and my Cousin was a type of woman sent to him from heaven....he told me all this with his own mouth.

The fact that we now have more ladies who do not have believe marriage values anymore or have faulty perception about marriage doesn't make it a general case.....The problem we all seem to be addressing from different angles; be it politics, marriage, religion etc...is the fast evading "Family Value" that is built on morality, loyalty, God's submission rather than societal dictate.
Correct. It can't be all women, neither can it be all men being lumped into one basket.

I'll be honest with you, I'm flirting with not marrying and just having children via surrogacy. I have come to understand women marry based on how much you can benefit their future materially. I'm sorry, I'm finding it really hard taking any of them seriously right now. I just can't seem to.
Your situation would not be classified as surrogacy since you are not a woman, or you are not even married to a woman who could not or does not want to bear a child. Your case is simply getting a non commital baby mama to have a child for you.

Bro, your case is even good. Mine, I am not just the bread winner in my family but the bakery to my wife’s family, my only sister, her husband (jobless) and daughter plus anothe baby on the way, my aunt who single handily sponsored me to school and her family (3 kids and a jobless husband who got fired last two years from his lecturing job). Sometimes I feel like running away with my wife.
You mentioned several people depending on you financially. Most were your own relatives. Yet, only from your wife would you like to rum from, not from everyone else. Is your wife the reason or sole reason for your troubles?

I was not encouraging use of hormones. I was only telling the other guy that cows can eat other food sources outside of just grass.
I got ya. But be rest assured that once we start to ranch cattle in the south in large numbers, the use of hormones will start. It is a matter of making quick money bu increasing meat volume. And southerners know how to capitalize and even overdo many things for quick buck.

Where i served in abia state. I once met some herdsmen in the bush, they said they were from Okenne and an indigene of the village owned the cows (about 45). Most of these herdmen are just workers
This is correct. My village chief in Abia also owned local Igbo cows (ehi Igbo) herded by northerners. The cows grazed on fallows and not on farms. In contrast, the Fulani who go about desyroying farms and killing people work for Northern cattle owners, mostly fellow Fulanis.

Americans use soybeans and corn feed to raise their cows
Not forgetting that they also add hormones that fatten the cows. And boy, those hormones are not our best friends, healthwise. Also use of hormones is among the reasons American beef is tasteless.

omohayek:
The non-participation of southerners (including Igbos) in cattle ranching has nothing to do with any particular skills unique to Fulanis or other northern groups, and everything to do with the fact that the entire south of Nigeria lie in the Tse-Tse fly belt. The trypanosomiasis carried by tse-tse flies is lethal to cattle over long periods, especially the more productive breeds of cattle favored in Europe, the Americas and Australia. The particular breed of cattle raised by the Fulani are more resistant to the effects of the disease, but they are still not completely immune, which is why the Fulani nomads generally only bring their cattle down south for parts of the year, before taking them back north again later.

What all of the above translates into is that the only way any southerners will ever do well in cattle ranching is by buying the necessary ranch lands in the north, and keeping their cattle there. Of course, they'd still face the problem of keeping Fulani nomads from turning the ranches they've bought into "free" grazing lands, as well as the burden of transporting the meat and milk they produce over Nigeria's atrocious transport infrastructure.

In short, this is yet another situation in which the lazy Nigerian preference for tribalistic stereotyping can lead one seriously astray. All this talk of particular tribes being geniuses at "business" is just a way of avoiding any research and hard thinking about what it takes to succeed in a particular field.
There are tse tse fly resistant cattle breeds, including the common so called ehi Igbo (Igbo cow). Plus, how does the Fulani cow survive in the south? Your point does not have a lot of merit.
