Every thing they said about this useless agropark is very true and correct. Pls, job seekers beware and try as much as possible to avoid this company. It is nothing but a scam. I was once one of their staffs. Believe me I was just sacked unjustly between 3 months of my employment along 3 other members of sraff with whom I was recruited at the same time. All what they do is to use you and dump you. Imagine a company sacking 8 employees in just one month. Their is a very stupid and useless man there called Shola. It shall never be well with him, his children and his great grand grand children whenever he may be right now.

#Redefine agriculture

Lol. What a pathetic attempt by their staff. You should be ashamed

Adanna205:
I was recruited alongside 9(8females and a male) other fresh and young graduates as Agricultural Journalist graduate trainees.We took up this offer because Agricultural journalism is a field in communication that has not really gotten attention and we felt gaining this experience will be a life changer for some of us.The company promised to train us and we were sent to their farm estate at Ijale Orile Abeokuta to gain firsthand experience in Agriculture so that when we write,we write with passion.
On getting to the farm estate,we were turned to labourers.We started harvesting chilli pepper,basil ,sweet basil,we even planted thyme on a very long bed.The food was wack and we never ate with meat or fish till we left the farm.Young Agriculture graduates are on the farm and they r being used for hard and cheap labour and they are paid 15k all in the name of graduate trainee.
In October,we were told to resume at Lagos office situated at plot 413B Celia's place,Omole Estate ,in order for us to continue our training.On getting to Lagos,we realised that the proposed training is a scam and we were actually recruited to market their frozen chicken called "Booku".We decided to stay and do what we could do simply because we were in it already and backing out wasn't easy.Along the line,we discovered agro-park is a worse place to work.The directors,hr and admin are all related and they run it more like a family business.Once you are not a family,you get insulted,pushed and used anyhow.We kept enduring and we got agro-park customers for the chicken even though it was a new chicken in town.We went from one trade fair to another marketing chicken.Those period were the worse of my life because we leave home as early as 6am and we come back around 9-10pm because of traffic on the island.
In November,barely 3months into our training, On the 29th of November, Agro-park gave 5 of us certificate of participation and told us to go away for no reason.We werent queried,scolded or anything.Our Offer letter carries 6month training and we were released barely 3months for no reason.A director claimed two of us were released because they are introverts and also a girl was released because she is very young and might want to further her education and other silly and insensible reasons coming from a man of 50years.We were sent away and dismissed like a nobody.We weren't paid until after few days of our release.
Agro-park had 5 different graduate trainee batches last year,the question is why do they keep doing graduate trainee and not permanent staff?.They keep using and rendering people useless.They just use you to achieve their aim at that time and once you have gotten them what they want,they let you go.This year,they have started with the graduate trainee again but in a tricky way.They keep changing their email address and they claim to be an Agric firm at ogba whereas they are at Omole Estate.
I think it's high time we let the world know about this organization so that young graduates won't keep falling victim of their lies because their target are young graduates they can easily fool.
The hr is a puppet who can't point out the ills of the organization as the head of human resources because he is a family member. A particular director is a man with a good name in the society but I keep wondering what he is doing with scammers and liars.Do not fall victim of their lies but they say experience is the best teacher.If you go to their farm,you will learn more about their lies,scam and evil acts.
Their chicken outlet at Akiode junction shouldn't be trusted because there was a time spoilt chickens we're roasted and sold out to the public.I only pity people investing in an organization full of lies and deceit.
Please avoided this company like leprosy because they will use you and make you useless.They can decide you work from 8am to 8pm,nobody can question them.

Very pathetic lol. They don't even look normal. Am sure it's one of their staff who thinks we all are fools. Something tells me that the person responding doesn't have an Agriculture background that's why he or she is a puppet. Good luck anyways

DEVELOPMENT OF COMPANIES

The development of joint stock companies is closely connected with the foreign trade. The discoveries of Xtopher Columbus and vasco Da Gama at the end of the 15th Century opened up new markets in America, India and the
East Indies. Thus, the size of business unit increased in order to provide additional capital and to meet the greater risk of world trade. The development of companies took place in five stages,

The company took alot away from me and ever since, I find it hard to trust all these organisations. I'm saving up to start a business soonest.
But trust me when I say Agro park is a SCAM, I experienced it first hand..
When you go for interview, they act like better people but na lie. How company go dey do five to six graduate training in one year? Not like they even train people, they use people on farm as cheap labour.
It's better to be jobless than to be in Agropark. They will use you to the last and feed you with crap. .you won't even taste meat through out your stay on farm. It's a terrible place to be.

Be preaching nonsense on behalf of people who have no value for humanity.
You should be ashamed of yourself I truly you are a graduate. That's why this country won't move forward. Ass-lickers everywhere.
Lie that you didn't do cheap labour on farm? Were you ever served meat?
They fed you like prisoner and you come here to spill nonsense.

#Redefine agriculture

By their post you shall know them. Sugercoated speech coming from a terrible organization.
Tell the person handling your PR to try harder. Agropark is a SCAM. Be suffering and smiling there. I have nothing to say to you rather than allow God deal with all of you.

mikeuz:
This is almost what is obtainable in almost all sectors in Nigeria industries, if you don’t want, others will gladly go for it. Yes its bad, Bt employment and bad leadership couple with terrible NLC; all they know is STRIKE, and our laws are also crappy, hence these things flourish.

U stayed that long in that job maybe because you hoped it will be better, bt it wasn’t. This company you criticize here today provide source of livelihood for some persons. This is not to say the evil act shouldn’t be addressed,bt to let you understand that the grass isn’t exactly greener on the other side. Don’t settle for less, if you can’t take it, leave early enough.

I know someone into farming, the person sacked all his graduate staff, his reason is that they don’t want to work or get their hands dirty, that they have some level of pride or entitlement because they are graduate, but they don’t realize how hard and dirty he had to work to get what he has.
Today his farm is still doing well, with workers from Togo and Benin republic.

Of course it provided livelihood for their family members they put in key position. I am not an ass licker. What I don't understand is why send girls to farm as writers and then start using them to plant and harvest even under the rain?
I stayed that long because the farm was inside the bush and it wasn't save to leave. Ijale is not a place you can be walking aimlessly around cos I don't know anything about the village.
Then they brought us to Lagos , still with the lies that we were coming for photography training and boom, they asked us to be carrying frozen chicken inside polythene bag up and down.
I wasn't going to stay there another month after taking my salary.
It is not a matter of graduates not wanting to farm, this ones are thieves, liars and scammers.
If you want labourers, put it out there, people who are interested will come. Why lie to young girls

I'm very sure you did not read to understand what I wrote.
They wasted your time, fine you were fooled but I wasn't. I know I'm in for the game.

I did not entered has a trainee and I enjoyed the adventure to an extent.

The experience and connection I made are still mine till today. My landmarks are still there...

Agropark is not for the indolent but tough and rough people.

As for the food, its not OK. There's meat on the farm, why can't you buy? Why don't you prepare your own food as the FSS urgument theirs.


After I left there, I understood the Adekunle song 'ire' lyrics better.

I can see some people are used to life of hardship. That life seemed Normal to you.
Ofcos you can say all you have said because you know what you are in for, so please stay away from my story because I was told something else by these bunch of hypocrites. Our story ain't the same, okay?
Then you talked about connection, oga stop fooling yourself, I was there and I saw it all with my eyes. Connection khor internet ni.
And you open your mouth to say I should cook or buy meat on farm, maybe I should remind you how much those clown gave us in our first month ,#9600.
You weren't a GT so I see no reason why you should comment here. Awon Agro jibiti.

Don't quote again please, because nobody send you to go there in first instance.

Oga carry your lies away from here, awon agro scam.
Yes, I am an ingrate for speaking up against injustice. I know you are their Spokeman but go and open a thread for them and leave here.
I am an ingrate, you are used to hardship, that's why you will worship a useless company who derive joy in scamming young minds. Ass lickers like you are the reason this country is still backward, if it was that good and enjoyable, you wouldn't have dreamt of leaving there, you should have served them till your old age.
Be stylishly asking me what I'm up to, they sent you to come and verify abi?. Need I remind you that I am not a farmer, I did English in school and your scam company recruited me as a writer and then started using us for cheap labour.
Go and tell your ogas that I am never a farmer and I didn't learn anything talkless of putting it to use because I AM AN ENGLISH STUDENT NOT A FARMER.
Nobody sent me there in the first place and that's because a thread like this didn't exist, had it existed, would I have even considered the fools?
Leave my thread oga, we ain't scammers here.

rattyo3:


I'm not working with them anymore. What do you want to ask of?

I wanted to enquire about the Cash crops long term investment. The likelihood that they may or may not default in payment someday.

Basically, I'm interested in how sustainable the business model they employ is for. The long term.

I know they have been good so far though (or not).

What information do you think I as an investor should have to enable me make a fair and informed decision?
