62 Netherland companies in Nigeria 🇳🇬. How many Nigerian companies are in the Netherland? That’s why they give us shit when we go to their place. Whilst their people go to Nigeria to open companies we go to theirs to seek fake asylum.

It is not their fault that the Dutch have their act together and Nigerians don't. This agreement anyways benefits Nigeria way more if you put down the national pride (which is unnecessary given how weak the country is currently)

@@sulaak Nigeria can have as many universities as she wants. The number isn't the problem. There are multiple ways to source funding. Nigeria is just not a serious country with corruption everywhere. If you brought down the unis to 6 someone in government would allocate the money for 60, release money for 6 and siphon the balance of it.

I love the way he countered all that sweet talk with producing chocolates and exporting. Nothing personal, we are dying and we need to start producing high value products with industrialization on a massive scale. A scale never ever seen in the current world (apart from our ancestors from ancient kemet). A scale that will dwarf China's and America's effort combined!! We will show them that we are their fathers. Exporting raw material agricultural products does nothing for us. We have seen and experienced it.

How is that even going to work anymore in todays Nigeria 🇳🇬 ? Our population has increased 10 folds since the 1960s and our youths are more educated now than ever before, so they have more life choices. Not only that, other sectors of the economy are competing for the limited land mass available e.g roads and infrastructure, ports - seaports and airports, housing, commercial industries, energy, schools (primary, secondary and tertiary) of which thousands exists in each state. We can no longer really afford to feed ourselves. We need help and we have to be realistic about it. 😫

@@pedromagalhaes3634 What a numbskull, Nigeria does still feeds herself, we grow what we eat here in this country. Undoubtedly there is inflation, high cost of living as the government continues to reposition the economy from the damages of years before. The meddle belt and the far north are still feeding the country despite, attacks on farmlands and farmer. Are you too dumb to comprehend what the guest was saying, that the balance of trade has started shifting towards Nigeria's favour. Yes, investment in agriculture is crucial for bilateral trade and health of our economy. And on that front, the South West governments are already intensifying on cash crop like Kola, shea butter, Cashew and Cocoa (cocoa as mentioned by the lady); the South south region too has step up with Rubber and palm oil production as recently exemplified by Presco Plc, securing a 100% equity stake in the Ghanaian Oil Palm Development Company (GOPDC) for $124.9 million. Now the question is, apart from screaming and shouting false fowl plays, how are you Igbos contributing towards this agricultural betterment. Instead of Igbo young able body youth to channel into farmland, they all want to go "learn market" and be trader (like their social media president, Peter Obi). And what is worst with this disposition is that this people trade in imported products that depletes Nigeria's foreign reserve. It is high time the south eastern governors to stop building airports and market places, but instead to begin establishing farm lands with farming communities and start sending those boy that wants to go and 'learn market' to those farms.
