INTELLIGENCE CITY CAMP 2.0: COUNT DOWN TO OPENING... Registration still on.

As the world expands in people and ideas, approaches and platforms are also changing to meet these demands.

This phenomenon has no doubt set in motion series of activities and chain reactions, which in turn has created a new World Oder. In this present order, knowledge is the greatest asset, far beyond gold and landed properties.

If we are to enjoy and harvest from this mental wealth, the time to invest in human capital development is now. 

Unfortunately, the Nigerian school curriculum is not enough to meet this present challenge, hence the need to introduce a supplementary platform to boost the efforts of our educational curriculum. That is if we want our children to level with other children in this global village.

It is upon this premise that we birth:

In the tradition of human capital development INTELLIGENCE CITY is strategically designed to expose your children to variety of learning experience. 

This is the perfect opportunity for parents who wish to lay a solid foundation for their children to equip them for the future. More about INTELLIGENCE CITY

Stop Using These 16 Terms to Describe Yourself

Jeff Haden

Ghostwriter, speaker, Inc. columnist

 Picture this. You meet someone new. "What do you do?" she asks.
"I'm an architect," you say.
"Oh, really?" she answers. "Have you designed any buildings I've seen?"
"Possibly," you reply. "We did the new student center at the university..."
"Oh wow," she says. "That's a beautiful building..."
Without trying -- without blowing your own horn -- you've made a great impression.
Now picture this. You meet someone new. "What do you do?" he asks.
"I'm a passionate, innovative, dynamic provider of architectural services with a collaborative approach to creating and delivering outstanding world-class client and user experiences."
All righty then.
Do you describe yourself differently – on your website, promotional materials, or especially on social media – than you do in person? Do you use cheesy clichés and overblown superlatives and breathless adjectives?
Do you write things about yourself you would never have the nerve to actually say?
Here are some words that are great when other people use them to describe you – but you should never use to describe yourself:

15 Things Successful People Do

“Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome.”
Whether in business or life, there's a fine line between success and failure. Booker T. Washington’s quote highlights the inevitability of obstacles on the path to success. In fact, I firmly believe success and failure go hand-in-hand. Those looking to succeed must first fail or learn from those who failed.
 Successful individuals aren’t just born, there’s a lot more that goes into the equation. I've found those who are highly successful have a lot more in common than we may think. If you’re seeking success, these habits may come in handy.
 

A BLIND REPORT... for one eyed men

A BLIND REPORT... for one eyed men

                                                           

The superlative hunger for responsible leadership is to say the least Nigeria’s most important prayer point. But I find it hard from wondering, asking myself the one question we ignore the most; Yes! We need change, agreed, we need some measure of direction in leadership, a responsible government, but do we really deserve it? On a scale of justice, do we stand a chance based on our past and present?

PARENTING TIPS MADE EASY

LETTER TO NIGERIAN PARENTS

 Friends,

Let me add the benefit of my time as a student and then resident in the UK - and I live in Lagos now. The first thing that I discovered about UK-born, white, English undergraduates was that all of them did holiday or weekend job to support themselves - including the children of millionaires amongst them. It is the norm over there - regardless how wealthy their parents are. And I soon discovered that virtually all other foreign students did the same - the exception being those of us status-conscious Nigerians.

 I also watched Richard Branson (owner of Virgin Airline) speaking on the Biography Channel and, to my amazement; he said that his young children travel in the economy class -even when the parents (he and his wife) are in upper class. Richard Branson is a billionaire in Pound Sterling. A quick survey would show you that only children from Nigeria fly business or upper class to commence their studies in the UK . No other foreign students do this. There is no aircraft attached to the office of the prime minister in the UK - he travels on British Airways (BA). And the same goes for the Royals. The Queen does not have an aircraft for her exclusive use.

5 UNNECESSARY REASONS WHY WOMEN MUST SUFFER

When a mother (men are not excused) fails to train her son by reason of impossible circumstances, career, ignorance or just foolishness, she fails to tame the beast and nurture the hero in him. By default the next woman is forced to inherit a beast or coward.

The new generation woman prefers a weak man for the purpose of manipulation and control. This helps them puppet the man to their desired direction. However as beneficial as this technique is in the short run, it always back fires at the long run. This is because when the man by way of karma, falls victim to another woman who is more advanced in gender puppetry, the music changes. The hunter becomes the hunted. As for the man, well...minus one.

Most women have allowed fashion to reduce them into sex items; with dress codes that de-emphasizes the woman from the world most important asset to a past time. This in itself is an insult to their maker, the universe which relies on them, and humanity.

Power is good but power play is dirty. A woman’s power before was private, subtle, slow but effective, indirect, playful and abstract but today the woman’s power has become direct, public, serious, loud and easy to discern.
With all honesty, you don’t expect to go into the arena and play fair. This is why Shakespeare said; “all is fair in love and war”.

EXCELLENCE BRIDGE PROVIDES LASTING SOLUTION TO PEACE

Femi Osofisan’s Women of Owu, a play, recounts events that happened years ago, an adaption.

What makes it more out of the ordinary is that the play is an African retelling of Euripides’ The Trojan Women. One would gain more from this play if the original book had been read. However, more gain lies on the fact that the play would also be fantastic to see live.

Like some other plays such as Arrow of God, Radio Gulf, Visa to Nowhere, etc. which have been performed live on stage by notable group of artists to the delight of the audience, the Excellence Bridge School is offering an exciting and amazing performance of Women of Owu.

 I died a death

Yet in my death I refused to die

Anguish gave me no peace

Solitary gave me no rest

My grave, without me

And the underworld a journey, I never took
