  • How we lost money doing business with this man Mr Emma Ogar.
    I am putting out this video so others can learn from my experience and avoid people like this in the future. Know this if you want to do business in Nigeria. After we had made this video just before publishing it online, Mr Emma Ogar came over to the house with the story of how he wants to pay us back the money we invested and he has replanted another 10hecters of cassava. We had several meetings and he agreed to sell the harvest and give us this money. This as you can guess has become another story.
    I will probably make another video.
    I hope you find the vlog exciting and give it a Like.

    Most people have unrealistic expectations of agric businesses. The profit margins are very small. You cannot simply hand off your investment to someone else and you think you will be picking money from the trees. Some of us who have been in it for long know the losses we incurred in recent years because of government policies, adverse weather conditions, etc. I have a cassava farm myself. But the plants were dealt with by a neighbour's goats that crept under a portion of my fence. Not even the Fulani cows ooo. As for my maize crop, the Fulani guys themselves came to harvest it with bags. Were it not that we spotted them at night when they came and confronted them, we would have lost our entire crop. There are too many headwinds to success in agriculture business in Nigeria. The Anchor Borrower rice farmers know what the 2022 flood did to their investments. Many of them are now on the hook to pay back the loans. In Nigeria, there is no support from the government, no subsidies, NOTHING! You are on your own.

      You're absolutely correct. I have similar experience. Solar camera of 200k & 30k to security staff has helped alot. Any invading animals becomes our food because govt have failed to come to our aid. However, I always consider the real estate aspect of Agric as the primary benefit of Agric & crops as secondary benefits. Either way, the profit is slow. Avoid starting big, I lost millions for starting big. I'm currently doing good on a small scale. I'm a diasporan & visits every few months. Goodluck everyone

    Very interesting video, Bigwillz. I think before anybody starts a business or invests in a startup, they need to realize most small businesses fail in the first year or two. And starting a business is usually extremely hard work, but working extremely hard, by itself, won't guarantee success. It also takes a bit of good luck.

    Sorry for your loss, I had similar experience that you may have been aware of and I learned a valuable lesson as well. There is a lot of unprofessionalism, untrustworthy, and individuals with criminal minds in Nigeria just looking to take without producing or giving any value. I never worry about those kinds of people cause that same mindset would cause their demise.

For now my money is spent for my family and comfort. As I live in the diaspora I can't Invest my money there and get high blood pressure.

      This statement is so annoying. Given lazy cheap excuses for bad behaviour. The guy is a thief and a fraud and that has nothing to do with Nigeria. Is it only Nugeria that has problems?
      Let stop protecting encouraging criminals. An average Nigerians today don't want to work, everyone is looking for easy out. Farming is a good ventures if done with integrity. investors loss money because barbarians are digging holes in genuine investors wallets.
      You should write a petition to IG or ICPC and try to recover your money. Today generations don't want to do things the right way. Is the reason majority of Nigerians are frustrated.

    This is sad. I also did business in Nigeria and lost over 50 million naira - and this was well before the Naira crashed under Tinubu. For one, I invested heavily in Agropartnerships, CrowdyVest, an Oil Palm plantation, and more. I lost it all. I would have been better off keeping my pounds sterling (I live in the UK). In one investment, we discovered that instead of investing in the agreed plantation that was proposed, the scoundrels decided to invest in mining in Zamfara. Then, of course, the bandits came, and that was the end of that business and our money.
    Will I still invest in Nigeria? I don't know.
