PURPOSE DISCOVERY PLATFORM FOR ALL NIGERIAN YOUTHS

This interview was in February 2004, three months after Eji Owuro was released. When challenges come, and it looks like I should give up, I am led to, with staying strong and being sure of The Father's mercy, read my old books, look at old pictures, and see how far the mercy of GOD has brought me. Line upon line, step on step, on purpose, I am here. And still going on, strong and steady. Here cannot even compare to the beauty of "there", as much as I am deeply thankful and privileged to have been here at all. Whoever you are, let your hope rise again at this time. It is a journey. Success does not happen "just like that". You got here, you'll get there. And I am talking to myself too! Raise your head up, square your shoulders, it'll occur to you that your feet have been made strong all this while, you only didn't know because your head was bowed in discouragement! You've found it like me? Keep at it. You are not sure of it? Put in m...

Real life story: My name is Aramide Olanrewaju, I've been married to my wonderful husband for three years. Ours was love at first sight. We were friends who could talk about just anything so I couldn't say no when Olakunle asked me to marry him. We attended all the marriage counselling classes and listened to all those who had been married ahead of us had to say. This home of ours was definitely going to work no doubt, I concluded in my mind several times. Olakunle met the requirements of all I needed in a man. The counsellors did try their best but a few weeks in marriage revealed a wide gap between their counsels and the reality of marriage. I realised we disagreed about almost everything. It seemed friendship took a long walk from our home. Our first child came and he readily became our best friend. My attention completely shifted to him. Hubby too became our son's best friend. We thought we loved our son but clinging to him further widened the gap between u...

This is for those between 21 and 30. Fresh out of school (or maybe few years out of school), trying to find your way, trying to build a career, trying to make a living, trying to find your feet, and it seems you'll never get there. Your friends are traveling abroad for their masters, getting married, starting businesses, and it seems like you aren't doing anything with your life. Calm down. Don't push yourself into depression. Just understand one thing; your day will come if you keep moving. You're allowed to wander, you're allowed to try different things, just make sure you don't go astray. DIRECTION is more important than SPEED. By Olisa Umerah D'gens

My journey with leadership began more than two decades ago. I never imagined as a young man living in Iran, I'd emigrate to America and be mentored by the extraordinarily influential Dr. John C. Maxwell - the number one leadership expert in the world! If you're a leader who has become comfortable and even complacent with “what works” - you've essentially limited yourself and everyone you influence with a low lid mentality. 1) A true leader strives to become a “Lid Lifter” for himself and others while actively encouraging open and direct dialogue, respect, and coaching in the workplace. 2) A true leader never operates or allows others around him to use a “low lid” mentality, holding others back. Rather, they lead and coach others to success and personal development. A leader sets high standards and pursues goals with optimal purpose. 3) “Lifting the lid” is a deliberate and conscious choice that doesn’t happen by chance. A good leader is both self-aware and eq...

''One of the most basic questions everyone faces in life is, Why am I here? Reading this amazing book I would describe James as an author who is giving an existence to people’s purpose. Style that he uses is very understandable and from that each person could use it as a self-help book. James is putting a light on what each person needs to find, to live a fulfilled life: he is talking about purpose. All of us have something that we supposed to do. It is goodness. And is our responsibility to manifest that something. Someone has already done or is doing something that you want to do. We were not born lucky. We can be more. What is that 'more'? James is explaining how ‘you have to discover what turns you on and what turns you off'. His whispering voice caress readers inner passion which was sleeping, now waking up. Because there is nothing more powerful than human with purpose. James highlights also how important is to find your purpose early enough. Every sing...

As part of our intervention, we organize trainings for cocoa farmers. And so, before daily commencement of activities, we do quality & compliance check. This includes checking the quality of food, drink and water, provided by the contracted event planner, before they're served. If they meet standard, they are served. Otherwise, they are rejected outrightly, or accepted based on a promise to comply going forward, and an open apology to participants. When you work with Oyinbos, then, t...
