you can work your way to the top; just know that there’s up and downs and there’s drops; unfollow fear & just say “you are blocked”. she/her

    If you’re ever gonna find a silver lining, it’s gotta be a cloudy day And if you want to fill your bottle up with lightning, you’re gonna have to stand in the rain

    Musa, the owner of this brand, is a young hard working fellow who sources tomatoes from small farmers in northern Nigeria. Unlike my product(Tomato Jos), his product is pure 100% tomato and it only goes through one process: solar drying. Please patronize him! The product is good.
    Powered tomato This is production to consumption Home grown and Innovative, From Jos (again!) Great job

    ... And it only took 6 years of idle dreaming followed by 7 years of the hardest work I’ve ever done in my life!

    I’m in an Uber & I’m so impressed. My driver is SERIOUS about getting a job. He keeps copies of his CV in his glove compartment. He’s got good work experience, he’s buying a car on layaway, he’s treating the ride like a low-key interview & I’m here for it. Someone pls employ him!

    Ok. I’m going to share my best explanation as to why tomato prices are high. I’m going to do it as definitively and comprehensively as I can, so that next year when they’re high in June I can point everyone back to this thread.
    @ShoutsAndMiras Hi Mira, please educate us on the reasons for the high prices of tomatoes!

    Just got an $800,000 quote for a solar-powered system to run our irrigation pump. Alternatively, we can buy a $35,000 diesel engine and spend $15,000 per year on diesel & maintenance. It will take 51 years for the solar to “pay for itself.” How is solar cost effective?

    I’ve had a lot of strange experiences living in Nigeria for the past 12 years, but this is a new one! Currently flying from Lagos to Kaduna with a plane full of soldiers… 😳

    If northern 🇳🇬 were its own country, it would have a population on par with Germany, a GDP per capita on par with Malawi, state & economic stability on par with Syria, and education levels on par with Somalia. Please, stop congratulating yourselves and help us out of this mess.
    Congratulations to Everyone! All who endured harassment online & offline, because of Buhari. The footsoldiers & volunteers of the campaign, young and old, who made calls & canvassed, who hit the streets with the #NextLevel message. The Presidential Campaign Council. Congrats!!!
