GET SKILLS & GO TO WORK!
By Talented Olayinka




We have reach a stage in Nigeria where we have to call a spade a spade and the TRUTH has to be told in whatsoever language of expression.

Employment in Nigeria has always been Who you know and Not what you know or What you can do (what you can offer).
It has been by Compliment and not by competence.
Yet, I tell you today, Young people get skilled.
Acquire Skill! Until You are truly Skillful You cannot be completely Useful.
Understand that with the RIGHT SKILL, You can CREATE Employments.

I know couple of people in the banking sector, Public office holders, Civil servants and host of others in various organisations using forged Certificate for their employments because that is what we celebrate in our Country,  We celebrate CERTIFICATE and not SKILLS. Certificate is buyable but Skill is not but acquirable.
Though, Certificate is acquirable too but you can acquired Certificate without acquiring the required Skill.

HEAR THIS;
Great Dreams requires great Skill not many Certificates"

- Innovation answers to Skill not Certificate.

Young People,
Fresh Graduates,
Wake Up! Get Skills and go to Work.  For It is only WORK that makes THINGS Work.
Don't go to Work because of what you will EARN alone but for what You will LEARN. It's Your Learning Capacity that determines Your Earning Capacity.

See You again on this same platform.

ONE MAJOR WAY OF BEING RESPONSIVE TO YOUR ABILITY

By PRAISE AKOBO It's possible you may or may not have thought of 'responsibility' as a 'response to ability'. So, let's roll. .. .. .. Have you checked, how that, when you were given a task, be it in school, church, office, firm or even that which you gave yourself? Did you see that, somehow, you felt lackadaisical at first but decided to take the bull by its horn? Now, the ability to do that was resident within, but came alive when you chose to act, this is why you hear words like UNTIL YOU GET STARTED, YOU CAN NOT START. .. .. .. I discovered that I understood something's about myself when I was given a responsibility in an N.G.O and accepted it. Just like you, I hesitated but until today, that has been a major factor in my growth. My NETWORK grew as well my NET WORTH. Lets say for instance, you are asked to be part of an Editorial Committee, you finally accepted, then along the line, you discovered ...
FILL YOUR OWN MOULD By Emeka Nobis I had boasted to Ikenna and my classmates that I could play the number five position in football. That was borne out of envy because Ikenna's football skills were hailed. I decided to tame his mouth. That was in 1992, my second year of secondary school at Marist Comprehensive Academy, Okigwe. I became the last substitution in the fifth minute of the second half of a match our school played with a neighbouring school. That meant I couldn't be replaced anymore. It was absolute tomfoolery. I ran around the pitch in a pattern similar to pollen grains in water. I couldn't even trap the ball, mostly letting it pass through the hollow of my legs to the opponents. I was playing what was called "Shorting one" in our local parlance. Football wasn't just my forte. For me, it was eating the desert before the entrée in a four-course meal.  But it was different when I handled a pen and a sheet of paper. I could write e...
