How Development Came To Yorubaland Through Me by Charleys: 9:16pm On Apr 12, 2021
We (migrants to Yoruba land) have helped in shaping the region (Yoruba land) for a very long time. It seems our efforts have not been appreciated. In this topic, I will show how it is done using my journey as a yardstick.

While traveling to Lagos, I met my father's friend. We had a conversation, and he asked me what I was doing at the moment, I told him I was still searching for a job or business to do, so he recommended I go into farming, that I could become a millionaire in no time.

Some months later, I called him and told him, I was ready to go into Agriculture. We talked on phone. I traveled to meet him in Osun state, he took me to a chief, one Oba like that, they talked and the Oba called some elders, with some negotiation from my father's friend I was given a land that I paid for and signed some documents and some old receipts was given to me. I was introduced to one Olumide (not his real name)

It dawned on me. I had no one in this village, except me.

I needed people to clear the land 2 hectares, i.e. 32 plots.
500 naira x 32 i.e 16000.
Olumide organized people and I gave him 18,000.

To dig ridges, I had to pay a total of 16,000 naira i.e. 500 naira x 32 plots.

A well was dug to water the land. This served as a source of water for half of the community. Another 40,000 nairas. People from other farms came to my farm to fetch water than go to the river that was nearby.

Planting and weeding of the land was paid for by me.

During harvest, Olumide organized and brought a truck that will take the crops to the market which I paid for. Harvesting and truck plus the number of days the truck waited.

I also paid money at the military checkpoint to pass through with my crops.

After selling the crops I made some money and cashed out of agriculture, it wasn't big, but it was enough to venture into something else, I did not cover enough of the money I spent, but I tried.

My experience.

If I had sold it there, I would not have made any profits because I sensed there was a conspiracy against me.
It was an experience that I would not forget.


Note that the people working on “my land” were indigents of that land, they were not outsiders. I was paying them to work on their own land... That's how the scam works.

I also paid for security of the land. The person I was paying bears the name of the village and is one of the sons of the Oba I bought the land from (I believed they were spying on me.)

I was given different girls by the community. They sent their daughters to cook for me, wash my clothes, etc. Different girls every week (they told me their parents sent them.) they worshiped me and bowed down to me anywhere I went. Most of the girls were teenagers, and there are a lot of teenage pregnancy down here.
I don't even know who impregnate them. They cover themselves with hijab and all that to hide the pregnancy.... Or to hide the fact that they are pregnant teenagers.

It wasn't possible to live a low profile.
This style of development has been going on for decades and no one talks about it. The community feeds on the developer because their politicians failed them.

But at the end I am proud to say I took development to Yoruba land.

I am a proud developer

So Farming in Yorubaland now qualify you as a developer,you are very funny,.You constructed the well for your own sake as irrigation for your plants and the community took advantage of it.

Other Nigerians do that in Igboland but dont see it as a big deal.
You can only be a developer in Yorubaland if you site big companies there.

Fulani is developing Igboland because their cows provide manure for your farmland and cheap meat.

You fvcked up. You believed anything he wrote? How can 40% of people use same well? Let's assume that the village is clustered and small, that is even impossible. Then people come back from all the farms to use his well while abandoning the natural streams... Like people will walk kilometres to fetch from your well cheesy honey must be inside the well.

Igbos are known for lying. They are lying miscreants. They really learnt well from their slowpoke in chief, lamidi kanu

Meanwhile, that bred of tomatoes can't be grown in any of the western states. It is either in Benue (middle belts) or the core north. Op probably stole that picture from somewhere.

This is the insult I get from my good deeds.

For your information, I'm not the only one farming there, these people are scammers. They pretend like there's so much money to make from agriculture that you need to start farming. Then they leech on you little by little. I can't count how many times my farm was vandalized by you.


Moreover this scam has been going on in the west since the 1960's.
This is how development has been coming to Yoruba land.
You lied when you said 40% I checked my write up, no where did I mention 40% there.
