@LarindeJide @Denisontsekohol For how long are we going to have this mindset? Why can't we have stable systems that work and people do their businesses without any hassles? Outsourcing your stress won't solve any problems rather we need a working system and the rule of law in this nation else we won't progres

@Denisontsekohol You are good as a farmer but thank God you have learnt & still doing your business. Next time , consulting or outsourcing would have saved you more money & less cost. We can't know it all.

This was my 30-ton-per-day rice processing factory building.
When we started the construction in 2020, a bag of cement was around ₦3k, and within months, it moved to ₦5,500.
And we bought a full truckload [2 trucks in total] for the building project.
We completed the factory, built a 10k-capacity poultry pen, a 10k-capacity fish pen, and 6 rooms of staff quarters and office.
By the time we were done, our rice processing machine was trapped in China due to the COVID-19 lockdown.
When it finally arrived in Nigeria?
I chose the wrong port [Onne Port in Rivers State], and the machine was seized by customs officers.
According to them, they were suspecting the container to have loaded firearms [funny set of people].
So, they broke the container, opened the boxes, and saw only my rice processing machine.
It was closed back.
It was time to release the container, right?
Story that if I share with you, you’ll cry blood.
I cried and paid unnecessary bills in that port before they finally released the machine.
When it finally arrived in Makurdi that particular night, the drivers were insisting we offload at midnight🙈
I told them it was not possible.
All my staff were sleeping by now, and we could not get them to come there.
So, they slept.
The next morning. It was time to offload the container, right?
As the truck was driving to an Industrial Layout in Makurdi where we were to offload, ALL the jobless youths in Makurdi followed behind on bikes.
When they arrived, they demanded we pay ₦250k before offloading anything on Benue soil.
Bro, I am a Benue boy ooooh. A younger boy [I was less than 30 then] building a business in this country.
Guess what? We had no choice but to pay those boys cash. Though we negotiated, begged, and paid less than ₦200k.
Then, we offloaded the machines. I was extremely happy😍😍😍
The event that followed? I will share later. Difficulties continued.
Here is the lesson I want you to get today.
“As an entrepreneur in Nigeria, many times, you’ll spend more money and time fighting external battles than internal ones that you know well”
✍🏻 Unstable prices of inputs
✍🏻 Settling useless street boys
✍🏻 Battling extortion from government regulatory bodies
✍🏻 And more.
You can know your business A-Z and still fail due to external battles you were not prepared for.
It is like that for every entrepreneur in Nigeria, including Alhaji Aliko Dangote. You watched his external battles recently with regulatory bodies.
You see this Agriculture? I know it very well. Is not pride. I was born as a farmer.
But I am learning to beat those external demons programmed into the systems in this country.
And I MUST win them. You have to learn how to win them too my brother.
Good luck. Stay connected.
I will tell you what happened after the installation of the 30-ton-per-day rice processing machine in my factory that year.
See you soon.

@Don_TEE @Elkrosmediahub She simply told them to fact check with the government agency rather than copying and pasting from another news outlet. FYI: All news outlets have a side they tilt to so don't take all the feed you hook,line and sinker. Always fact check.

@Elkrosmediahub Gossip mill is like TSR.
They don't have any reputation to protect.
So trying to banter dem no go work.
But I don't getbthe argument though.
They quoted Fox News and someone is arguing that they are wrong?

Harry Kane now has the most goals in all competitions (61) by any player since Cristiano Ronaldo in 2014-15 (61) 🤯

@Quo_Riri Nothing really. Those guys are settlers from across the river that outsmarted their landlords and got a local government status for themselves. They've been a torn in our flesh since then.

@AramideOyekunle The fact that they will “my bunkie” “my roomie” themselves to death is the funny part. Men will call themselves “mad Man” “weyrey” etc., and will share one fridge with no fuss. Women are very complex beings.

Let me tell you how it happened. Nigeria’s ginger export hit zero from N26 billion within 3 years.
The official story blames fungal blight.
But here is what actually happened. When Nigerian farmers lost their indigenous seed supply, grant-aided interventions arrived with replacement seeds.
An associate professor at Lagos Business School flagged publicly that some of those interventions involved GMO organisms that weakened indigenous crops and compromised soil health.
That is not a conspiracy theory because it is a documented academic concern.
Now that Nigeria spoke got destroyed by the GMO seedlings….what is not the result?
Nigeria was forced to import ginger from China to fill domestic demand. Chinese ginger has none of the pungency, oleoresin content, or quality that made Nigerian ginger a global premium product. And the ginger now sitting in Nigerian markets tastes like wood because it essentially is wood.
The two indigenous varieties that built Nigeria’s global ginger reputation, the Tafin Giwa and Yatsun Biri, had decades of soil relationship and quality built into them.
Once the soil was degraded and those seed varieties were displaced, the product that returned was a pale imitation. Nigeria did not just lose a market. It lost a seed. And without a National Ginger Seed Bank, which nobody has built, it may never fully get it back.

One thing I truly admire about Germans is their honesty.
There’s a pretty German girl I’ve noticed once or twice before, always carrying a Goyard handbag, one of those expensive brands you often see with footballers, easily around €2,500.
Today, my daughter and I were on the bus when she stepped in. I couldn’t help but point to her bag and say, “That’s quite an expensive bag.” Without hesitation, she smiled and said, “Yes but it’s fake.” That simple, straightforward honesty is exactly what I admire.
