@Saanvi_dhillon If 100 people asked the same models that exact question, everyone would get distinct answers lol. Response could either be from conversational context user's lens or randomly.

The young builders don't have the edge and resources it takes to pull stunts in the traditional space. We don't have $1M to bribe or influence government decisions and policy. So we build where we can thrive.
The said Indians are the top 1% that made their money over decades.
Stop building startups in third world countries. We do not have the disposable income to pay for tech subscriptions monthly. Built traditional businesses like the indians do. there is a reason why indians are the most successful businessmen in east africa, and u never find them building silly apps and websites

I just found the plantain variety I’ve been searching for for years.
This morning, a friend sent me a video of the plantain he harvested from his backyard.
The moment I saw it…
I froze.
I immediately knew it was the French Giant variety.
I’ve been searching for this particular variety for a long time I even reached out to a Cameroon farmer that I know to see if he have it
I was ready to pay any amount to have it shipped then
But most of the ones I’ve come across were either hybrids or varieties I wasn’t confident will do well under Nigerian conditions.
I didn’t even bother typing or chatting with my guy oh
I called him on a video call straight up .
I told him,
“You’re joking right ?
where did you get this plantain from?
Then he turned the camera around.
He showed me the mother plant.
He showed me the suckers.
That’s when I knew this was real.
I told him:
“You have no idea what you’re sitting on.”
Now we’ve got a new project on our hand for this month.
We’re going to clone the mother plant and mass-produce the suckers for large-scale planting.
If this variety performs the way I believe it can…
It will completely change the way I approach plantain farming.
Here’s what got me excited the most
This single bunch had 146 fingers when we counted them.
For comparison, the popular Elephant Giant variety usually produce around 20–25 fingers on a good bunch.
That’s why I’m so excited.
The plan now is to multiply the suckers
Plant it
Document everything.
This might end up being one of the biggest discoveries we’ve made on the farm
This is exactly why a stable Naira is far more better than an artificially strong but volatile Naira, you may not notice anything when naira suddenly moves from ₦200 to ₦300 in a week because of a global event that shouldn’t even concern you, but for the big players with the big money who are holding naira, that’s catastrophic, and these are the people you expect to invest and create the jobs? LOL jokes on you
The economic reforms were non negotiable, it doesn’t matter what the “common man” says, we must commend the Bola Tinubu administration for doing what needed to be done
@festus90940 I charge thousands of $ for projects and I also take "our budget is N200k" projects, so far I can pull it off in a short time and doesn't affect other works. Every wealthy and rich folk I've interacted with place serious value on every "dollar". Only a thief does not value monie.
@DataChaz Very right, I thought of it a while back... Free and powerful open source tools will soon become Proprietary when they start breaking boundaries
