I have been trying to upliad pictures of the environnent but yo no avail

Fhemmmy:
The process has been fun and an eye opener for us at Fhemmmy Motos . . . . .This is an empowerment to make someone financially independent but we have come to realize that people are really NOT ready
1. Final process, and my people complaining about network or location?
2. Final process, and my people refused to post what is needed to be that winner
3. People don't seems to be ready to go far and beyond to stand out
Now here is my question:
For someone that can't bend backwards to showcase how he is the best to win this, how can such person do all it takes to make sure the chickens are OK.
We are extremely disappointed in this and NOT sure how to even handle this.
2 finalist either lied to us that they have what they claim to have or afraid of the fact that we will verify ALL claims before we send DOC and release funds for feeding.

I agree. The excuses of network are not tenable for someone who is 'supposed to be desperate for this opportunity. I've been following closely and to be honest I expected 'realer' and swift responses.

FarmTech:
Participants shud pls be serious and take this opportunity. It is wort it. So don't give up.

Amiks21:
What a pity ....a big opportunity just slipped away

Good day everyone,

I just want 2 clear things up so it won't look like I disappeared or because of what he is accusing us is true.

If u follow the thread very well from the beginning he said he wants 2 empower one person to go into poultry(broiler). We sent in application, after that series of questions upon questions that we answered through his mails even b4 we started posting the ones all of u can see here.

He never wanted to help anybody he was only looking for reasons not to give anybody so he keep accusing us of lieing or not telling the truth.

If I have come this far is it to snap feeder and drinker that I cannot arrange and post, Haba! or wait until he sends somebody to come and inspect the pen?

Even if na world bank, by now winner would have emerged.

Somebody that wants to help will help, without all this questions upon questions without end just because you want to find reason not to give of which I decided to help him achieve.

He can look for a family member or a friend and empower since he cant believe anything we tell or post.

I will source for money and buy birds cos I have knowledge of raising broilers somehow............Thanks for your help.

I would just address this because it reeks of the entitlement mentality that is common with the 'lazy Nigerian youth'.

Please note that when you start making your own hard earned money through legitimate business in such a harsh business environment like the Nigerian clime, you would have seen a lot of shenanigans and rubbish for you to be able to identify bull-shitters.

I am a farmer. I have been following this Fhemmy process closely. I liked his process. I liked his questions. It showed that he is someone with real farming experience and not an internet farmer. So he knows what he was looking for.

As I said earlier when you start making your own hard earned money and you want to give it away, you want to make sure you are making every kobo efficient. Shey because he did not ask you to go and bring letter of recommendation from your local government secretariat? Please go to world bank and collect their cash na.

I know of one of my colleagues who won a contract with Obasanjo farms...they asked him to bring 10 reference letters from people he had supplied products before. 10 !

I even appreciate Ineedajob4school response better. Even though I don't think he should be awarded, it even shows responsibility for him holding up his hands to accept his shortcomings.

If I were to recommend, I would say Fhemmmy should restart this empowerment again. Until we find the right candidate. His money doesn't have to go to the pocket of whoever he isn't convinced of . It's his money. Let's restart this, some other people have showed up after the deadline. Maybe we would find some honest aspirants there.

FarmTech:
@Fhemmmy, I'll advise u not to give up yet. U can still start another one. Maybe, everybody have learnt sth from this one.

Fhemmmy:


Oga at the top, we will be more than glad to do it again BUT we need to figure out the best way to select a winner without someone getting angry

FarmTech:

Hmm. The surest way is to look for someone close to you.

Fhemmmy:


Between my firm response that we needed the pictures by 8am Nigerian time today and your response above, it was over 12 Hours.
You had no network where you currently are to get the pictures but you had network to post here.
The feeders are at home, in your situation, i would have left no stone unturned to make sure that i have the feeder posted here {It only means, you are not taking the process serious}
In your response above, you are currently at Abeokuta while home is Mowe but the pen is in Ibadan, i am a little confused now sir because i am not sure how you plan to shuttle home and where pen is.
Anyways, we won't wait for no image and we will use the fact that you have refused to post the images to make our decisions

Fhemmmy:


Yes and No.
Yes because of trust and No because you want to empower someone in what they are good at and knows how to do, except they know you are into such, it still won't work. empowerment of family isn't negotiable but i am under the impression that family doesn't mean bond by the blood but we are all connected BUT i could be wrong.
We surely will try this again as soon as possible and like the gentleman said, we all could have learnt one or two things from this one.

At this point, I will like to chip in something here. The pandemic and lockdowns have put people in impossible situations. I was caught out by the closure of airports and have been away from my family in a foreign country for 2 months now with no sign of when I can see them again. Nobody knows when the airports will open. So if someone says I should get something and submit from my office, how do I do that?

My two pennies...

stagger:

You should also know that your own credibility is at stake. There are people who would think you merely used this as a means of getting information about poultry farming without any intention of empowering anybody. If you are truly bent on empowering people, the best you can do is to wait until the lockdowns are lifted and then proceed with physical verification of whatever you need to confirm. Expecting people to move around in a lockdown taking pictures at the risk of getting arrested, beaten or shot is simply unrealistic.

It is possible that the fellow in question was caught out by a lockdown. You have to make some allowance for some of these things. If we were in normal times, it would have been a different matter.
