Pistotita:Sir, I read this your post and I can relate to what you're getting at here.. I'm still in my early twenties and since I obtained my ND, I've never worked with any Nigerian company.. infact all my works to date has always been online related.. even in my compound where I live they think I'm a Yahoo boy.. only those that are closer to me knows how I truly get my money.. and everytime I'm searching for a job online I'm being forced to deny myself as Nigerians.. even in the platform where I work I still see nigerians trying to scam our company.. it's just a big shame.. then how do you expect me to open up to them that I am Nigerian.. most of the time I am forced to expose most Nigerian scammers to my boss ... telling him this client you're chatting with thinking hes an American or British is a Nigerian.. It's just a shame .... And even our parents, leaders and ladies are not making thing easy as they're endorsing these scammers.... nobody wants to work, but they all want to drive Benz .. I've lost job opportunities online more than once for just exposing the fact that I'm Nigerian.. to me the name of this country is more like a curse on me and it is painful 3 Likes |

Psalmy2cute: A British taught me online trading. This man wanted a Benz SUV, and decided not to come to office until 2pm for over a month, we usually closed at 5pm. Lol. He was by boss. Within 45 days, the guy drove a brand new Benz SUV to office in 2005. I was shocked. Well, do you know that if you are Nigerian you cannot trade on some platforms? Hehhehe. I am not sure if SaxoBank is still accepting Nigerians. I stopped taking my laptop in private cars when police started harassing anyone with laptop. I had to dump my Jeans pant with Blazer (My style of dressing) for native attires too. No more usage of waves patterned hair cream. Lol. Infact, no more usage of special fragrance because it makes these police to just delay one unnecessarily hoping one gives them bribe. Anyway, I am used to it. Just dash them, and let them leave you in peace. They are always the one praising and hailing one. Very funny environment. Lol. Or dress like a real big man they will be scared to say anything to. Lol. But I understand that it may be hard for anyone in his 20s to achieve. I cant imagine myself doing 8am - 4pm job. Trading is a part of me. But I have stopped trading because I need to move from one location to another often when I was into field farming. So, this one reason, I want to relocate. I cannot be stressing myself with security issues. While I was in the university, while I would start struggling to apply for Visas for paid conferences awarded to outstanding students (by the way, I missed so many opportunities) my caucasian Norwegian friend simply picked his baggage, and zoomed. It is why many prefer to become citizen of another nation. But these people that have destroyed us, the bad leaders enjoyed the respect of the old classic reputation Nigeria had. In the 70s, no Nigerian student was denied student Visa to the US. Britain was a free pass. Everyone I know, I always tell them to just take the Nigerian Visa and fly to Nigeria with Visa instead of using the Nigeria Passport. The worst treatment you get is when you arrive. The expats' line at our points of entry are smooth and free. But join the Nigerian line ....hahaha. when you are returning, it is same ooo. Use an American passport and they start saluting you, but bring out your Nigerian passport, and they start demanding you must pay like it is their right to collect bribe from you. Lol. Even pack overload with your American, British, or Canadian Passport, they will even want to assist you reduce the price you will pay for excess luggage. Lol. But carry Nigerian passport....you will hear many nasty comments. It is just unfortunate. Let me shock you. The US is not even saying Nigerians should apply for visas esp if it's not immigrant Visa. They dont even want us to apply. All they are asking is: let us have access to a database where we can check your people coming. This is why most European countries do not need Visa to enter the US. Just pick your bag and fly. When you get to the point of entry, you will be asked questions and you are free to enter. But a Naija man commits credit card crime, runs to Nigeria and as soon as he enters Lagos, he is gone. He cannot be be traced. Whenever they ASK Nigeria to produce him...lol..for where? Can you nab air? The guy has turned to oxygen as soon as he lands in Nigeria. And they will be shocked that this same person is already in the US again after some months with another document. Ha! Naija. U na dey try oooooo. This was the reason the US started finger print check to address this dubious act. We are not even ashamed. Promoting cutlasses and hoes in 2019. Look at out low standard poultry pens. Yet, it is so expensive for us to construct. Honestly, the person who cursed Nigeria did a very good job. But my brother, this is where money is. I am here to make money. Leave Naija? I always feel like leaving, but brossss na lie. A no dey go anywhere. In this Naija, there is real gold. I will continue hunting for treasures here. I am not ready to do any yeye work in the cold again. The way Aliko Dangote struggled it out, we will too. I have just learned that to be a leader, a price must be paid. Of course, I can be like Femi Otedola whose base in the UK but his businesses are in Naija. But before he reached that level, he worked his as.s in Nigeria. And by God's grace I am in the stage of building something I do not need to be around to manage. This is the way to do it well. Keep working hard. Victory is sure.

Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by Nobody: 8:51pm On Oct 19, 2019 |
tpben: That's a thorough advice but if he does it well and the market favors him next year. From the little experience i had this year (April to July harvest season), I met few illiterate farmers in my area who cashed out big when a flour bag was sold for 16k every market day. There's a man, my father's friend who harvested between 3-4 bags of pepper every 8 days and he did that for 2 straight months at 16k p/bag. Do the maths. Even me that my father cultivated small piece of farmland for, i plucked 1 flour bag for a month. O'boy, money dey inside pepper farming if you harvest when Hausa pepper don finish for market . 1 Like |

Psalmy2cute:ifrom our records 700-800 well managed hybrid pepper will give 4 big flour bags which is 8 blue garri bag in 8 days,but I think it wil notl be left for 8 days many will spoil and further flowering will reduce, when harvesting any pod that has 5-10% red colour is harvested before daybreak it will be completely red, it will be harvested every 4-5 days 3 Likes 1 Share |
