A Costly Livestock Feed Formulation Mistake You Need to Avoid! [TRUE STORY]

Enquiries from livestock Farm CEOs regarding my Best Practice Farm Business Solutions continue to reach me from within and outside Africa.

In this video, which is based on an article that I first published six years ago (2014), I noted that most of the farm owners who contacted me, in answering my questions, revealed that they started out using haphazard methods to formulate rations for their animals.

I explain how I take time to educate them on the best practice need to adopt more reliable methods, if they wish to reap optimal returns for the long term.

The following admonition from Lola’s closing statement in the IG LIVE interview is worth noting…

====STARTS===

“So, please report, because truly, every Domestic Violence case is a potential murder case. It can be the last push, it can be the last shove, it can be the last kick. And like I always say…People that kill their spouses, I do not think that they intended to kill their spouse…

But at that point nobody is really going to care. Somebody is dead. And I think you won’t be in my office. You will be at Panti…Going for murder… or you know, maybe it drops down to Manslaughter.

So please we’re speaking about important critical ehm situations here. Life and death. If it’s happening to you, don’t…don’t make it look like as it it’s not real.

Don’t make it look like as if it’s not serious. And it’s not only…until it’s physical that it’s important or that it’s serious. Anything that is done to you that reduces your self-esteem, reduces your self-worth, and basically makes you – the person wants to dominate and control you.

It’s a behavior that is akin to Domestic Violence. So please, speak up, speak out. and report. ” – Lola Vivour-Adeniyi, Coordinator, Lagos State Domestic & Sexual Violence Response Team (DSVRT)

====ENDS===

 

Like I tell every individual or group I speak to on this subject of Domestic Violence, I am on a mission

My goal is to provide a FREE Public Service to deliver value-adding Information and Education about how to IDENTITY and STOP Domestic Violence Against Men (DVAM) in particular and Domestic Abuse in general.

This is NOT about me. It is bigger than me.

I only tell my stories – and use my personal experiences – as a basis for getting my message across, and I actively connect with others with TRUE and AUTHENTIC stories to use theirs as well.

If you’d like to help you can reach out to me using the information provided in the PDF Transcript.

To a physical, verbal, emotional and psychological violence FREE society.

Lekki #ENDSARS Protesters Killings: Report by DJ SWITCH [Download and Read THIS Verbatim Video to Text Transcript PDF Version]

01:16 “…Thank you so much Thank you to Ehis, Chris, eh Richard. Thank you Mr. P. Thank you all for getting me out safely. I don’t want to talk too much. I just wanna clear a few things that I’ve been seeing online.

To our leaders, I urge you, please, do not minimize the suffering of families. Do not insult the grief of Nigerians. Do not insult the intelligence of Nigerians. Do not insult the pain that families are facing.

02:15 (Voice trembling) People were falling left and right. Yes, there were soldiers there. Another part that people are not really talking about. The police also came – the SARS people we’re talking about, they also came. Some maybe 40 – 45 minutes after the soldiers left. We were tear gassed (voice trembles)…” – DJ Switch, Lekki #ENDSARS Protesters Killings: Report by DJ SWITCH

Before Voicing Opinion About Nigerian Youths, First READ This Description of FOUR Different Types Of Nigerian Youths & Decide Which One You Mean!

“Intelligence is the ability to make finer distinctions” – Robert Kiyosaki.

I continue to advocate the use of CRITICAL THINKING. It aids accurate analysis of any issue.  Some of us are mixing things up.

There are DIFFERENT groups of youths we see acting out in Nigerian society today. It’s VERY important to differentiate between them.

This video – CLICK HERE TO WATCH ON YOUTUBE – presents a WhatsApp post forwarded by “Adebayo Olajide” an alumnus of the university I attended (UNIBADAN) to the Association’s WhatsApp group.

CLICK HERE TO WATCH THIS VIDEO ON YOUTUBE

The post’s author has done a good job of defining four (4) categories of youth we have based on available information. I totally agree with his intelligent analysis + align with his view that the first group is the one we should support.

When you want to voice opinion about “Nigerian Youths”, you need to decide which of the youth groups you are referring to.

It’s wrong to use blanket reference to ALL of them as one – because THEY ARE NOT THE SAME!!!

True Story: Conversations With REAL Black Soldier Fly Farmers in Nigeria [Case No. 1: Ilorin – Kwara State] – Download PDF Audio to Text Transcript

I have been searching online for, and conducting phone interviews with BSF breeders based in Nigeria for 3 months.

So far, I’ve spoken with about 15 persons I identified from various platforms offering BSF larvae supply and/or training.

From that number, I’ve now narrowed down – as at today, Tuesday 6th October 2020 – to ONLY two as being reliable.

This PDF is a Text Transcript version of the audio recording I made, of my first phone conversation with one of the 2 shortlisted breeders.

VIDEO: Beat Me Up. I Married a Wife, Not a Man. You’re a Reproach to Womanhood [Says Husband to Angry Wife]

VIDEO: Beat Me Up. I Married a Wife, Not a Man. You’re a Reproach to Womanhood [Says Husband to Angry Wife]

Contrary to popular stereotype, this video clearly shows that the woman is the aggressor.

Her body language as well as her words show she is threatening and trying to intimidate/dominate the husband.

Without the video, the man would find it hard to prove this!

If we did not have the benefit of watching this video, it would be hard to believe a WOMAN could speak and act this AGGRESSIVELY in challenging her husband, and that he would NOT react to the provocation.

What you see happening in this video is VERY similar to what my own ex-partner used to do to me. (e.g. “I will kill you!” and “I’m an Igbo woman – we don’t take nonsense from any man!”).

And she would often attack and inflict injury on me at the slightest opportunity – hence my many injuries, hospital visits and police reports.

But when I reported to police, or relatives/3rd parties, she would deny it all and claim she was no match for me physically.

You Can be “Successful” & UNHAPPY: You Need Education That Helps You Achieve Success and Happiness – NOT Certificates and Compliments!

Do you want to be truly happy? Do you want your child to be truly happy? If you said YES, then you MUST focus on getting the right kind of education.

Not what others think is right – but what YOU know is right – which may sometimes NOT be in line with public opinion.

By this I mean the kind of education that WORKS i.e. allows you to be happy, while being financially independent.

And in today’s world, THAT kind of education involves income earning (physical and/or digital) SKILLS acquisition.
