LINKEDIN NEWSLETTER DEBUTS

WELCOME ALL SUSCRIBERS I had written my maiden newsletter, and just as I was concluding I came across a quote by American Industrialist Harvey Firestone that “the growth and development of people is our highest calling of leadership”.          That quickly reminded me about the mantra of this newsletter which is “Intellectually endowed legal ideas, developments and innovations no professional would like to miss”.          Being the maiden edition I immediately changed to “Corporate Social Responsibility” (CSR): a global business phenomenon, that touches every aspect of human endeavours. More of that in the near future.        1. Suffice to say that content could Attract or Repel. It could also reflect or  address the mood of your audience. 2.  When a content doesn't fit, save it for future engagement or edition.  I'm humbled to announce that your decision to subscribe is not a blind one. Within the first 24 hours of the debut, 176 of you (counting) found it a worthy decision. I want to assure you that I don’t take it for granted.         You'd have ample opportunities to comment, criticize and recommend. Depending on how strong your views and testimonies are, some of you and your opinions may feature in subsequent editions of the legal ideas and contents.          Meanwhile if you have been ignoring or underrating social media, please stop and begin to engage it as critical business and professional catalyst. Towards the end of 2022 about 4. 5 billions people globally, already using social media fore prsonal and professional transactions.               Thanks for your time and attention.                Ikechukwu Odoemelam Esq                 #corporateleaders

ANOTHER EDUCATION JAUNDICE LOOMING


#education  #corporateleaders  #digitalskills #companies #directors  #contentcreator

As schools are reopening nationwide, there seem to be another education 'jaundice' looming. 

Students of some tertiary institutions are already protesting the hike in school fees that came with the new administration.

Since the focus is on education, it's pertinent to remind ourselves that the removal of fuel subsidy was the straw that broke the camel's back.

If not ASSU, it's  students' strike or government's closure of schools on flimsy excuses other than COVID or epidemic.

The negative outcomes like Shakespeare would say live with the society.🎎

Government is a public office. Those who occupy it today are merely attempting to solve similar problems left over by their predecessors.

The significance of education on human capital development and the entire world cannot be over-emphasized.✍️

At the just ended United Nations General Assembly (UNGA77) the President of World Bank group hit the nail on the head when he aptly observed:

"A silent learning crisis is unfolding that has become devastating shock to human capital.  We need to work to prevent further damage and build more effective systems. We urge you the world leaders, to meet this crisis head-on and act to improve learning outcomes for all children everywhere"

With the situation right now in Nigeria  only to the students and their sponsors are on the receiving end, with federal government declaring surpluses.👏

What do you think? Is education no longer a social service?

You the students whatever that happens to your ambition, don't miss the opportunity to join our skills acquisition program by DM.

I'd like to here your comments and responses.🙏

I remain Ikechukwu Odoemelam, #iplawyer available to assist companies, bloggers, entrepreneurs and busy #corporateleders with relevant contents that help you succeed.😀

TELL ME THE VALUE OF CRYING WHEN THE HEAD IS OFF?



#corporateleaders #housing #shelter #estate #fct #land  #government #demolitions

When the erstwhiile Rivers State governor Nyesom Wike was appointed Minister for FCT he warned an appealed to those who are aware of ABUJA master plan, violated it and went ahead to put structures on them should vaccate, relocate or face demolitions.

The law is a social engineer. It's a sword and shield simultaneously.  One of the ways to step on toes, powerful toes, is firm  stand on instant laws without compromise.
 
Now the structure on Plot 226, Cadastral Zone A02 Wuse 1, Wuse, Zone 6 District, is said to belong to Oba Oyebade Lipede, the Alake of Egba land, but was allegedly taken over by one Alhaji Ibrahim Mohammed Kamba and Alhaji Ademu Teku unlawfully was demolished days ago.

It's baffling when enlightened elements resort to threats in challenging situations like frustration of contracts which could have demanded mitigation.

According to the avowed approach of the Minister, there's certainly no value in crying when the head is off.

With the support of the constitution, your rights are our concerns, however it's your duty to protect them.

Your comments and responses are welcome.
