See the couple back together for where? After all the away matches. Even they themselves shouldnt want to see themselves back together if they are in their right senses.

Why do you think they will still be playing away match at their present condition?

At least for their fans who want to see the couple back together, this is a step further. The actors were spotted on set of a movie yesterday where the two exchange greetings and mingled with their colleagues despite them not being together again.
A source said, the movie producer had invited the couple separately and was ‘scared’ one of them might turn the invitation down, hearing the other was invited to the same movie location, but they surprised the producer when they both came and shared no bad blood on the movie set.

On the show last week Feyi Olubodun made an exceptional report that was full of insights. We saw the content useful and decided to bring it to your notice. Relax while you grasp the message.

Who is Feyi Olubodun ?
Feyi Olubodun is the General Manager at Insight Communications. He is passionate about the growth and success of the organization and believes the greatness we aspire for can be achieved with great discipline.

Read the words of Feyi Olubodun below

I have always had an ambition of being a part of an organization that makes a stamp on the Global Map. Excellence requires that you do more. Somebody asked me why I had to get an MBA from a School like Duke, the answer is simple: I’m a Nigerian with a background in Psychology. I had to do more because being good is not enough. You have to be excellent as a Nigerian; otherwise nobody will pay attention to you. Excellence requires a lot of discipline, sacrifice, sleepless nights and a lot of drive. Learn to push yourself beyond personal boundaries and comfort zones so that you can achieve your goals.

I have sort of mapped a career path for myself by following questions, I don’t follow answers. Every career move I have made has always been in pursuit of an answer to a particular question. So when I was working as a Data Analyst, I began to ask questions about the Data I process and the result generated. What exactly is the Research Department or Clients doing with this data, are they using it properly? As a result, I transited to the Research Department. Again, as I pass these on to clients, I asked myself, what do they do with it, what strategy do they develop from it? I followed that question and I ended up in the Strategic Planning Department at Insight Communications, where I eventually rose to become the head of the department. I had the assignment of driving the Corporate Strategy Initiative for the entire organization. While putting together strategy retreats, I began to experience difficulties in implementing the strategy. It’s very nice to have a nice strategy document. And so I began to ask myself questions, what does it take for an organization to see the future (a strategy is a preferred future), what do they need to get there and how does that happen? That question took me to Duke for an MBA because I wanted to understand the different aspects of business. And ultimately now I’m in a role where I’m required to drive the business into the future. Leaders are expected to have answers, they are expected to know everything and it took me a while to get comfortable with not knowing everything, but knowing the right questions to ask. Great leaders must know the right questions to ask, it’s not only about having answers and that’s what I bring into everything I do. What is the right question to ask?

On the heels of Wakaa the Musical hitting the London stage, Wakaa’s executive producer and Terra Kulture boss, Bolanle Austen-Peters has said the musical has great potential to boost cultural diplomacy and promote our cultural heritage abroad.

She made this known during a briefing with the press ahead of Wakaa’s opening in theatres in London.

Expressing her excitement on this new move for Wakaa the Musical, Austen-Peters said:

“This is coming in response to growing interests in productions of African origin across the globe, and various calls for us to take this production to the international community. There is a large Nigerian and Afro – Caribbean population in London, who are interested and yearning to see world class productions such from Nigeria.”

Yes, weddings are joyful occasions, but, sometimes, planning one can be anything but that. Sure, you can probably sweat through it, but it may pay to call in professional reinforcements. Here, we consider the pros and cons of using a wedding planner.



Pros:

They’ll sweat the details.

Chances are you’ve never planned an event of this magnitude. Wedding planners have done this before — a lot — so they can help you wrangle details you might otherwise overlook. Planners can also help you make the most of your budget and allocate it properly.

They have insider knowledge of the local market. Planners can be a godsend if you’re putting together a wedding in a city where you don’t reside. But locals can benefit, too, because they’ve likely worked with most of the venues and vendors in town. “Since many of us are full-time event planners, we are networking and researching vendors and suppliers to build our network and to stay ahead of the trends almost “If we have a client who is looking for a cinematic photographer, finding one does not take weeks of research and sending emails that appear to go into the ether. It’s one phone call.”



They’ll spend their time, not yours. Your wedding planner has the time to chase down obscure details and stay in constant contact with vendors for the day-to-day question .They’ll troubleshoot if something goes awry during the ceremony or reception — and something always does — you don’t have to take care of it. They’ll worry so you don’t have to.



Cons:

You have to relinquish some control. If you’re the type who can’t stand the idea of not doing everything yourself, it might be hard for you to turn over the details for one of the biggest events you’re likely to have. It’s not impossible, of course, “Contrary to what I was told when I first got into the business, Type-A clients work well with planners; in fact, I think they make us better planners.” However, you need, to be honest with yourself about whether it’s something you can do comfortably. If so, an online marketplace for finding event venues be sure that your planner is as detail-oriented as you are and has values and communication styles that align with your own.

It’s an additional cost.

Yes, planners have an inside track, which means they can sometimes they can save you money — but not always. If your budget is already stretched, but you could really use help, consider a day-of coordinator. They often offer multiple tiers of service. Be sure to ask for a customized service if you don’t see what you need on the planner’s initial price list. You can also chose a venue with prepackaged services. It’s not a con necessarily, but if you choose a venue that offers prepackaged services, it’s unlikely you’ll need a planner’s services. Hope you enjoyed this few things and weekly we would bring you more inspirational articles to blow your mind …..xoxo

The Edo state chapter of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has vowed to go on strike today, Wednesday, May 18, 2016.

Labour in conjunction with other civil society groups in the state say they will protest against the increase in pump price of fuel.

According to the Edo NLC chairman, Emmanuel Ademokun,“We are not aware of injunction. This actioin is a clarion call on the Federal Government of Nigeria to wake up to their responsibilities of providing better life for Nigerians whom they have pledged to serve. The excruciating economic situation in our country do not recognise the political divide.”

Ademokun also advised businesses in Edo state to stay at home and observe the strike action.

The National Industrial Court issued an order stopping the planned strike action by labour leaders.

However, the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC) decided to proceed with the nationwide strike, beginning today, Wednesday, May 18, 2016.
