wetin concern SE for dis thread?
Stay with ur foreign firms while d igbos continue with the indigenous ones.
What is not yours remains not yours, full stop.

Ta na lie. This one is osundefender MOU

drnoel:
Ur comments are a joke on educated minds. I wonder were u got the notion that most south easterners wish our south western brodas ill. Nigerians where are we all going with this bad, this is bad. I didn't know Nigerians hated it had this notion of themselves. Look, I was born in Lagos, grew up there, had Yoruba friends all my life. Speak and understand yoruba but also speak and understand my native dialect. What should matter is that development is taking place in Nigeria, regardless of where. I wish Oyo state success cos i know what ever comes out of there would benefit not just Oyo but the whole south south and nigeria as a whole. That is what is important. U guys should stop fighting over ethnic divide, it will not help us. Instead we will be doing our children harm. Enough is enough. Believe me, easterners know where they stand, both with southerners and northerners but all those are irrelevant without development. As for east progressing, don't uncross ur fingers yet. Igbo's never carry last (believe me, I know, I married one), I assure u and they did help develop Lagos no matter how our western Broda's try to deny it.
God bless Nigeria, Igboland, Yorubaland Hausaland, ijawland and the rest of the country.

Give me a BIIIIIG phucking break!! Is it not the same Lagos you people are trying to burn down and run it aground while putting up a treacherous facade? Is it not the same Lagos you and your people are praying that the Atlantic Ocean carries away? Were you dead when a report said Lagos ranks low on the livability of places in the world and your ibo people were happy about it and putting it down? We let you live in our lands, travel to your father's land through Ogun state and cross from Yorubaland into Iboland through Ore but you are not happy yet. You are the type of guest who eats with the host and poisons him when he relaxes around you so you can steal his property and inheritance. God is seeing you in 4D and we are watching you in 3D!

Anytime Chief Awolowo, Abiola, Tinubu, Fashola, Aregbesola, etc are mentioned you abuse them, you curse them but they did not come to your government to steal from Azikiwe and Ibos and you think we will let you kill our people as you tried and trying to kill and ruin them. I know we are stuck in Nigeria together for now but we will never trust people who tried to kill our leaders and people and openly gloat whenever a new factory, industry or hotel chooses the SW over Iboland. Shoprite recently opened their store in Ibadan and are completing a second one around Ring Road, ibos abused Ibadan saying they don't have money to spend at Shoprite and the store chain will soon close down for lack of patronage. Meanwhile Oyo State has a bigger economy and higher IGR than the "pride of the east" Anambra. Yet you want us to trust you? Kokoro ti je efo ara efo lo wa! Well, I wish the ibos goodluck in their land because I have lived there and been to 4/5 of the state and never wanted it to be destroyed but I will not stand around here while you employ subterfuge against my people!

If you beleive this story then you're simply not exposed. There is no money in agriculture to warrant such amount of money, unless its for charity.

36STATES: If you beleive this story then you're simply not exposed. There is no money in agriculture to warrant such amount of money, unless its for charity.

There is money if you know what you are doing and choose your products sensibly OKOMU OIL is doing very well with palm oil. There is money in Pig production too. If you merge production with some value addition then there is plenty of money to be made but this requires a company with some expertise and track record which I see no evidence of here

Wait a minute guys, lets see what they will come up with first before praising the initiative to high heavens. This is a normal news in Nigeria, multi billion this and that deal/contract here and there but at the end of the day, u wont hear anything. This is not about being pessimistic, I am just being real and I can't be fooled. Why not lets wait for may be a year and revisit this project and evaluate how far they have gone.

They are claiming to have signed a whooping over a billion dollar contract with a Canadian firm, they claim the firm will inject the money into our Agricultural sector, well we need to see the MoU. This is a firm with no track record, if u can't find their track record on their cheap looking website, then u can't find it anywhere else. This is a firm whose core and only business is claimed to be mineral resource mining. What expertise do they have in agriculture? We are watching with keen interest.

Alright, lets leave it at that.

I wasn't going to reply but u sounded so much like a spoilt unruhly child seeking attention. The thing there is that, children like u turn to full blown bigots and hypocrites if not corrected. Madam, pls i beg to differ, i have never believed in a revenge for people who i believe wronged me. Just as u said igbos rejoiced at certain mishaps of lagos that is how certain yorubas also rejoiced at certain misshaps of some igbo states. The questions i have for you is this. When will the maddness stop? When will we start seeing our western brodas as not westerners but Nigerians and so also for our northern and south southern brodas. When will we wake up to a Nigeria diverse in language, culture and diversity but united in one mind (progress for the future)? When will we stopping thinking of what we can get from our country but instead start thinking of what we can do for the betterment of our country? I know this ethnic cancer has eaten Nigerians dry, I mean I do remember while in elementary school. A parent came to pick her child while we were playing in a puddle of water. We mistaken splashed water on her she became very angry and started raising curses on us. I remember one of my play mates tried to appologise in english but she didnt understand so he spoke to her in Igbo, if u see the evil eyes she gave him she then walked away saying under her breathe Omo Igbo!!...
Funny enof that lady walked past us again with her child and I went to her and apologised in Yoruba and she was so happy, patting me on my shoulder saying Omo mi.....
As an adult, these things are things I would want to protect my own child against. I know the world is cruel but children who grow seeing ethnic divide tend to be very tribalistic since they won't know any better. That will have to stop cos we as adults have to secure our children's future in a Nigeria not infested with idiotism, fanatism and biogtry thinkings. This is where I stand. I stand as someone who could either be a westerner cos its mostly all I've known or an easterner thru my parents, but why should I close one of the other when I can have both. This is where I stand!!!! I don't care what people before me have said about westerners or easterners. All I care about is unity, faith, peace and progress. That should be our motto, a motto all Nigerians regardless of ethnicity should have in his/her heart. God save u madam and make u let go of ur bitterness, its uncalled for. God save Nigeria.

All this venom because his name is Edward NDUBUBA.
This is a welcome development, expanding the business empire and empowering the poor masses.

Yes I would welcome it if it is true. So like any person who went to school I did some research online(Thank God for the Internet) I cannot find any evidence that this company has ever owned a chicken,pig or goat not to talk of running a farm. How can a company with no track record run a $1.3 billion dollar farm business.

Next question where is the money coming from.

Is there anywhere in the world where this sort of thing has happened before ,where you invest such a huge amount from zero. Normally you would to a pilot scheme see how that goes before you throw in such a huge sum.

My point is simple if this is true it i welcome but it does NOT sound true AT ALL. What is this about his name? Is your head OK? What is the issue with his name. The reality is this is just NOT TRUE

Rexyl:

Why will you think this is not possible with the current level of awareness and massive industrialization in a well developed and properly integrated economy. It is only when there is no will that there can't be a way. If people of the state are willing and the government is serous and determined I bet that the money is not big enough to be invested in Agriculture in the state. Here is the state that prides in all types of vegetation and soils mostly formed in Nigeria, and all types of farming enterprises are supported. The youths have been waiting for opportunities to venture into Agriculture whenever it is transformed and developed to the level of no loss of farm produce and its derivatives. Agriculture is a system that provides possibility of renewing energy to greater extent. That tell us lots of opportunities. Why should we waste over one billion naira daily on imported rice if Oyo State can be assisted to take the lead in meeting this domestic demand. Abi the soils do not support rice production? Of course the state is blessed with fertile soils. An again do not be deceived cattle being reared in the state is fast dominating the markets and replacing similar markets from the North. Soils are suitable and crops are adaptable, alongside mechanization what is seriously needed is irrigation to support what human activities have left the climate and weather situation with.

What is all this story the issue is "IS THIS TRUE" ? What is the track record of this company? Can you show ONE ,JUST ONE FARM that they are running and how much food that farm is producing. SIMPLE QUESTION


This is the company website Peruse it and tell us whether these guys are for real to me they seem like charlattans and fraudsters.
How can a company(a briefcase company) That does not one a single snail,fish chicken or pig wake up one day and invest $1 billion in farming.

You just wasted your time addressing this village bigot. His post has nothing to do with Oyo, it's the same village idiocy, tribalism and bigotry..

Get to know these clowns and save yourself some precious internet time for your own good.

Stop fooling urselves wit fake developments. U ppl r so lazy dat evriting is done by outsiders. Ndububa and co are dia 2 make moni because u hv bn folding ur arms doing noting. And i want 2 ask, r d canadians also kuming 2 farm in ur region because of lack of development in canada?

bloggernaija:

You are an outlier like most cosmopolitan people everywhere.
Many of your people wish us ill and that is a fact.
Their opinion is that a progress in the SW is like a conspiracy to deny the SE the same thing.

Believe me when I say that you guys are still sleeping.
Even when the handwriting is on the wall with mall opening here and there,
The consumer electronic traders are already beginning to feel the pinch here.
Dangote refinery will remove the chemical trade as well.
MoSt of the retail sector in the SW will be formalised .
Most of your brother are still beating their chest emptily.
Especially when you consider that the largest market of consumers and purchasing power in the country are yorubas
While the SW is still very far from el darado,.
Initiative after initiative makes it apparent that the region will continue to suck up most of the oxygen.
All this is happening while the SW is in opposition.
What do you think will happen when we become a governing majority.
You better go and hassle your leaders to please stand up.


I will point out a few reasons why I think you have inept leadership
Enugu -the most cosmopolitan city in the SE is essentially a government money state(civil servants). This city has coal .instead of pressuring the federal government for a power plant and looking for private sector investments to reactivatie the mine ,your leaders are doing houseboy for AGIP ,when they should be pushing hard on that same government with their regional voting power.

2 Anambra- a town with the commerce oriented onitsha and manufacturing nnewi .
Like I posted before the strategic location of anambra on the Niger ,with the unstable,inefficient and very corrupt Asaba across the river means that a good leader should be able to exploit that advantage.
The tinapa thing would have worked in onitsha and just making the city livable means that it would be in the position to take advantage of the spending power of delta state .

3abia state-this one has already lost the battle against port harcourt.

4imo state- has a little oil and a few tertiary institutions .Investment in tourism may be the way to go .

5 ebonyi-another inept ,rudderless state and Mostly agrarian state. Should be doing the same thing as osun .Irrigation to allow all season agriculture, most especially in rice, yam where the state's advantage lie.

Mansions ,monument etc are not development.
Development is the economic situations that allows mansions and monument to be built

we prefer mansions, Thanks . Wat i see in SW is nothing but neocoloniasm and imperialism at its worst. U ppl shud stop ur childish rivalry wit d east, we do tins at our own pace. Our ppl must be actively involved in industrializing our region no matter hw long it takes

You can bet your last dime that this is simply a scheme by Ajimobi to hoodwink Oyo state and LAUNDER money he is stealing from the good people of the state.
Thanks to Omonakonda for exposing the kleptocrat in Agodi house for what he is- a fraudster!

For all the yoruba ethnic champions wey dey yarn my-tribe-better-pass-your-own, Edward NDUBUBA is from which yoruba state
BTW what is the difference between ?

* a RACIST such as those who believe blacks are generally INFERIOR to dem whites
and
* a TRIBALIST such as the Igbos, Yorubas, Hausa-Fulanis, Ijaws etc who claim other tribes are INFERIOR to theirs.

Ajumose is working oyo is developing. Thumbs up to our emiable gomina. OYO ONI BAJE OOO!!!

Another treacherous way of collecting large acres of land from state govt in Nigeria. All under the name of joint-venture partneship with a foreign company. I suspect they will later use the signed (MOU) to access offshore loans. I saw Borno state governor yesterday on NTA with some pakistani “investors“, He was asking them to take-over some moribond factories in the state. A nigerian facilitated their visit also. It's a sure old format.

AMIN OOOOOOOOO

omonnakoda, if you have useful ideas that can benefit someone I think you should be mature enough to present it decently and intelligently. Your insult as a reaction to simple fact doesn't show your reasoning is worth paying attention to. pls next time you want toreply someone learn to sensible.

As regards Oyo State the people are not foolish to be defrauded by fake deals of non existing company. People are watching the activities of government and they are not taking non profitable deals of the government for granted, for they know that they will be at the receiving end at the end of the day. Whether the project is real and the govt is pursuing it in good faith that is a big assignment for people of the state. If the company is for good of the state it is welcome but if not I know people will react and say no.

That is not the issue here. The issue is if a company comes up today and says they are going to invest $1 billion you woud want to know where the money is coming from and even more importantly the TRACK RECORD


So I went to the website of this company and EVERY SINGLE PROJECT is a proposal, in short a very good write up but NOTHING on ground anywhere in the world. This company does not own a single goat or pig . This raises a question that even if they have the money do they have the expertise.

All in all anyone who goes to the company website with a FAIR and OPEN mind can form there opinions. If SONGHAI farms comes and tells us they want to invest a billion you can at least tsay theyy have some KNOW TRACK record.

I think all eyes is on the state govt, they have given two locations (Afijio and Itesiwaju), and have stated that work will start by December that is 3 months from now. I have been to the website, while i dont subscribe that it is cheap looking, the drawback is that the site agricultural projects look like proposals, I remember some months ago, a similar argument was made on a different thread about a company who intended to site a soya milk production factory in oyo,, and there were doubts about the promoters https://www.nairaland.com/1098188/oyo-uk-firm-sign-agreement/1 , but today work is ongoing with construction of the production factory along Lagos Ibadan expressway, ibadan

let us agree to disagree on te cheapness of the site.

They do NOT LOOK LIKE proposals. They are proposals . Nothing is running anywhere.
This looks like a scheme to get free land based on some bogus plans.

Next question WHERE IS THE MONEY COMING FROM

Oyo state would be lucky if this dude invests $13000 not to talk of $1.3 billion.



I maintain that this company does NOT OWN a single pig ,goat or horse anywhere so how can they start their VERY FIRST project on such a grand scale. Where has that happened before. It is one thing to be open minded and quite another to be gullible.

Okomu oil which is listed on the Nigerian stock exchange is one of the biggest farming companies in Nigeria with a lot of experience and their entry has been gradual and incremental NOT just coming in to announce some 419 nuclear bomb investment

If they had said 1.3 billion naira we might take them seriously.

I actually did carry out some background research of my own before my initial post, as a proposed investment 208 Billion Naira did befuddle the mind a bit. It turns SGNTT is part of a Canadian consortium that goes scouting for high capital projects in Africa - http://gigc.ca/projects.shtml


Here is some additional information on the group:

Global Investments Group Canada Inc. is in an on-going negotiation of a Multi Million project financing for housing and recreational facilities for Republic of Ivory Coast . Housing, Agriculture, Sewage/Power and Hospital projects in the Federal Republic of Congo, Federal Republic of Niger Commodity and Infrastructural funding, Liberia Mining Refinery Funding, Guinee Bissau, Port expansion in the Republic of Benin, and have recently embarked with other companies in the possibilities of funding for Hydro, Wireless and telecommunication financing projects in Nigeria. Currently expectations are ripe that approvals for the projects may be coming in soonest.
