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.🙏

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.

ARTHUR ZULU: MENTOR PER EXCELLENCE

#corporateleaders #mentorship #consultancyservices #author

One of the very important ideas I learned from mentors is not to let someone else's opinions of you become your reality.☺️

AsTony Blair, 🇬🇧 former UK Prime Minister once said: "My teachers used to call me a failure, yet I became Prime Minister".

If you have a mentor that encourages you to soar, 💪 it changes all the negative opinions about you.😀

Such mentor is Arthur Zulu; an accomplished author✍️ and publisher. An online coach and consultant, Arthur partners with 🇺🇲 American consulate in Lagos to present impacting top publishing and creative skills.

It was this publishing skills that brought me into contact with Arthur more than a decade ago.

Aliko Dangote 🇳🇬 said: "In the journey to success tenacity of purpose is supreme"
I have always consulted Arthur whenever I made business decisions.

In 2016 when I launched IDEA WORKSHOP 🎤🎧 training and skills acquisition outfit Arthur on short notice travelled from Lagos to Abia state.

The representatives of Abia state government who attended poured encomiums on Arthur's courage and wisdom.

He gifted government representatives with copies of the workshop materials.

Arthur Zulu is not rich materially; but  what he displays in quantum is the mindset of the wealthy.

Dangote recommended: "When you have made it in life, you must give back to those who made you".

As Africa's top industrialist his corporate social responsibility fully illustrated that.

Arthur as an individual has demonstrated that severally in the course of more than a decade ago that he became my mentor.

I appreciate you immensely; may God not stop to bless you.🙏

HOUSEMANSHIP FEMALE DOCTOR DIES IN AN ELEVATOR ACCIDENT

HOUSEMANSHIP FEMALE DOCTOR DIES IN AN ELEVATOR ACCIDENT #corporateleaders

Dr Vwaere Diaso who studied medicine and obtained her

degree from Babcock University, was reportedly dead in

 the elevator accident that occurred in a Lagos general

 hospital where she had only two weeks left for the

 completion of her housemanship.

It's not enough to console her family, colleagues, state

 and the nation for the loss. It could anyone of us across

 the globe.

.

NUMBER OF COLLAPSED BUILDINGS ...

According reports a total of 61 incidents of collapsed

building occurred in Nigeria in 2022.

Meanwhile there's in existence National Building Code,

and Building Code Advisory Committee, established more

than a decade ago.

"The Committee” is hereby established, and shall be

answerable administratively and operationally to the

Minister. It shall be the duty of the Minister to brief the

 National Council on Housing and Urban Development on

activities of the Committee.

If the provisions of the National Building Code are

observed to the letter why do we have rampant incidence

of building collapses and defective constructions leading

to accidents? Apart from security threats, loss of lives

and properties arising from these avoidable incidents it 

as raised questions about the efficiency and capability of 

professionals and government agencies responsible for

 enforcing the provisions of the relevant laws.

There seem to be lapses along the line of all agencies

 responsible for enforcement. We have to start from

creating awareness of the law sine Nigeria is largely rural

 in construction compared to advanced countries. The

 awareness is also necessary for those who apply and

 enforce the laws.  For instance those who issue

 approvals for buildings and constructions going on in the

 communities should be held responsible in tort.

PROFESSIONAL OBLIGATIONS

Many professionals are involved in the building and

 construction industry and it would be unfair to single out

 one professional for blame.  However, it amounts to

 criminal silence on the part of Quantity Surveyors and

 Construction and Cost Management professionals not to

 whistle-blow or report when buildings are being set up

 without proper compliance with relevant laws,

 specifications and approvals leading to their collapses.

GOOD CORPORATE GOVERNANCE & CORRUPTION ARE NOT COMPATIBLES 

The government and corporate bodies have the

 responsibility to curb corrupt practices for good

 corporate governance to excel.  Corruption thrives

 because of three main conditions that are constantly

 preserved:

1 Benefits acquired illicitly

2 Low-risk of penalty/prevention

3 Disregard of morality: pain of poverty/privilege of public

 office

To tackle it advanced countries have heightened the scale

 of penalty, sense of morality and detection of crime.  It

 seems that the focus in Asia  has been to heighten sense

 of morality only. In spite of all these Halliburton, FIFA,

 ENRON etc are still fresh case studies which raise the

 issue of sanctions and its efficacy.

The various governments connected to late Vwaere

 should go for Inquest and  probably corporate

 manslaughter.

THE NEW THREAD DEBUT

#corporateleaders #digitalskills

New thread app @ is an equivalent of Twitter produced by Meta. It's just rivals Twitter in SMS service companies.

Since Wednesday when it debutted it garnered over 10 m subscribers, according to repors. This seems to be indication of success and acceptance by the market.

However, it seems to be coming in phases. At this time, it seem only some countries will be able to access the app.

It's also apparent that not all devices would access the app.

The app operates with existing Instagram accounts and Facebook. Untill you download the app don't give thumb up/down for the app. From the grapevine President Ahmed Tinubu has joined the bandwagon of the early subscribers.

Whatch out for developments.

Progress.
