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

CRASH COURSE ON RADIO PRESENTING...

Radio Presenters are the voice of a station or programme, whether they work in speech-based or music Radio. They are responsible for creating the tone and style of Radio output and establishing a relationship with listeners. They may also be required to carry out a range of other production tasks, as well as deliver content for related websites or other mobile platforms
Radio Presenters' specific responsibilities differ considerably depending on the programme or station. The majority of Radio Presenters are part of a small team, although some work with much larger programme units. They are mainly based in offices and recording studios, but may also work on location presenting outside broadcasts.
Most presenters are self-employed, working on fixed term contracts. Although the greatest concentration of jobs is found in London and the South East, Radio Presenters work throughout the UK. They may work for the BBC, commercial or community radio, on local or national stations, or for independent production companies.

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

Ilya Pozin

Founder of Ciplex. Columnist for Inc, Forbes & LinkedIn. 30 Under 30 Entrepreneur.

“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.

MUCH MORE THAN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY.

MUCH MORE THAN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY.


The world is one big question begging for answers. With all the uncertainties around us, we are constantly at the edge of learning to respond appropriately to these same earthly interrogations. However, very few understand that love, faith and hope are common answers to the many questions that choke us.


Unfortunately also, we have failed to identify a sublime about love, faith and hope because these are not the answers to the dynamic desires of man. These are customized solutions to man’s most basic needs. This means that as a sublime, it is constant, they don’t change with time.

It is our effort to upgrade love that is the problem with marriage and relationship, it is also our desire to update hope and redefine faith that has resulted to the misunderstandings and complexities in natures most simplified life jackets.
Because of this corrupt perception, we can no longer enjoy the benefits of love, faith, and hope in their original union.
It is true that to a large extend man, has conquered planet earth through science and technology, but I think it would do man more good to remember that the universe still lies unconquered. For despite the extensiveness of freedom, death often time extinguishes our reach.


Having said this, my conclusion is that, it is time we put away our unblended desire to conquer the world and perhaps pay a little attention in conquering self. And see if we can tame this greed, violence and this destructive thirst to enslave and victimize the rest of humanity.

I sincerely believe that the taming of man will indeed be A DISCOVERY OF THE MILLINIA. This is because this list though an excerpt of our destructive striving industry tires me.

BETWEEN THE ANT AND THE ELEPHANT, WHICH IS BIGGER?

THINK ABOUT THIS.

Ha! Ha!! Ha!!!

Life is beautifully funny, imagine, even the English language understands that trials precedes blessings and that the mighty is incomplete without the lesser ones. Can you spell ‘testimony’ without test first? Or can you spell ‘elephant’ without ‘ant’ completing it?

Could it be a co-incidence? Perhaps, but it sit shows that the universe testifies to the spiritual make-up of the basic truths and no matter our language differences, there’s always something to point us back to the principles of life as ordained by the creator himself.

Are you passing through test today? I congratulate you because your ‘mony’ is on the way, so there will be a testimony for you.
Please relish every movement of the test for you to have an abundant and ground breaking testimony.
If you are a mighty man or woman, please do not despise the little ones around you for you are no one without them.
There is no animal called ‘eleph’ but there is an ‘ant’, therefore, yours sincerely submits that it is the elephant that needs the ant to be complete as ‘ant’ is already complete without the ‘eleph’

Enjoy the days ahead.

THATCHOUSE.

300 OLD DISEASE:ORIGIN OF BLACK MAN MENTALITY

The first black man arrived Virginia in 1619, then the blacks were initially treated as indentured servants. After period of service, they were free to go  work their own land. But by 1681, laws were passed to legalize slavery. From then on Africa became the world’s greatest “Manufactures of Slaves”.

 So for almost 200 years, Africans have been wearing the chains of slavery, on the legs, hands and as decorative necklace of labour.

  

Thereafter came the era of independence. By sheer strategy of misdirection, the chains were removed after much complaint. Please note, the chains were not broken. It was simply removed from hands, legs and neck and embedded in the brain.

Ever since, the black mind has been struggling to understand itself. But since the black mind inadvertently was the disease itself, it has become an almost  futile surgical exercise to free the diseased mind.
