Greetings to you all.

I bought this tomatoes three hundred Naira (#300.00).

Gone are the days it was trending on nairaland, during the scarcity of tomatoes just last year, every Dick and Harry were uploading the photos of the Tomatoes he or she bought at a very high price.

But since this very agric produce has flooded the market, no one again cares to show us much quantities he or she bought at a very low price.

Does it mean that you all are pessimistic? If so, I will encourage you all to be optimistic.

I strongly believe that in not a distance time to come, Nigeria will not only be the largest producer of cassava, but will also be producing rice, tomatoes and palm oil and other agric produce in large quantities.

It is unequivocally clear that if the top bananas we have in the business environment in this country do not relent in their efforts as they are all plunging their rich business ideas and resources into agriculture, sky will not only be our limit but our unit.

Since Nigeria is a country that encourages both private and public ownership of businesses, I would like the federal government and some other states to borrow a leaf from states like; Anambra, Ebonyi and Lagos in what they are doing in terms of rice production.

Even if we do not go into all, we can select a few and concentrate on them. Example, rice, tomatoes and cassava.

Federal government wil then create a body like NNPC, may be, it will be called, NNAPC, Nigeria National Agricultural Produce Commission.

As we produce, we can also export these to other countries in Africa and beyond, that is when we will experience a real growth and development in our economy, Naira will gain value against the dollar, unemployment will reduce, to mention but a few.

In a nut shell, I see Nigeria being able to feed the whole Africa.

Thank you.

Everything is suppose to be cheap in this once great country of ours. Cars, electronics food, land,housing. Just name it. Even if not cheap, Affordable.

it has become a daily mantra to nigerians that not all fingers are equal. That is true but let us shed some light on it. We are all born into varying family. Either rich or poor. These factor none of us can control. Rich kids have different opportunities and can afford to experiment on new things. But a child from a poor family will be careful when taking risk because no body would help him if he falls. Return to square zero. Not every nigerian is lucky to have a rich uncle. I am therefore proposing to form an organisation called big brother. It will offer financial safety net and protection to its members for monthly payment. Provide Insurance coverage to millions of nigerians. Big brother will strive to protect their own. Guide them jealously like a hen guards her chicks. Ecclesiastes 4:10 pity a man who fall and has nobody to pick him up. Bb will support talented youths in NIGERIA.

Ok. Good
