kn23h:Simi Fajemirokun is one of the young Nigerians listed on the Top 10 Young Nigerian Entrepreneurs under 30. She set up an advisory company - ESFAJ & Partners, due to her disatisfaction with the mediocre consulting services, being provided by foreign firms to Nigerian agencies. She has done a lot towards the rebranding of the Nation’s image overseas, and has contributed toward positive growth at home, through the Abuja Global Shapers initiative and the Read2Succeed (R2S) Africa programme, an NGO dedicated to reviving the education sector. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DFKLThAWsAANh-h.jpghttps://r2safrica.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/education-reform3-2.jpg Simi's involvement in a corporate social responsibility programme, opened her eyes to the decay in the sector. From the outcome of a field research in education conducted in a few states, she discovered that 50 per cent of children could not read or write in primary schools. This made her think of different ways in which Nigerian educational system could be upgraded, to become Africa’s giant in education. Her NGO has since impacted over 1,200 students in schools and is looking forward to impacting thousands more, using the power of partnerships. https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/758311918784376832/Ln3ue6Tf.jpg "At Read2Succeed (R2S Africa), we are committed to improve the state of education in public schools. We constantly question the status quo of poor education in Nigeria and strongly believe that education should inspire tomorrow’s solutions. So we develop programmes that positively impact on the environment, teacher and pupils. We were horrified to see how low the literacy level was, where some students in primary six could not spell basic words like cat, bat or sat. Between the experience and the facts, it was too big a problem to ignore.https://abujaglobalshapers.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/simi-1024x1024.jpg Simi Fajemirokun holds a bachelor's degree in International Relations and Politics, from the University of Reading, United Kingdom as well as certifications in International Negotiations and Project Management. She is a board member of Silver Lining for the Needy Initiative, an Abuja-based NGO focusing on orphans/vulnerable children, and providing free HIV/VCT testing in rural areas. She also participated at the Google Summit Against Violent Extremism held in Dublin, Ireland where she participated in developing strategy for the role of the social media, in de-radicalizing youth in extremist groups, around the world. Simi Fajemirokun is a recipient of the Good Planet Foundation award. Simi’s focus has been on strategy development, crisis management and information management. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DHBX7EhWAAQ8f4i.jpg |

Gboyega graduated with a BSc. from Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ago-Iwoye where he studied Animal Production & Health in 2003. After winning an award as the 2nd best corper during the NYSC scheme in 2004 in Jos, he was employed at the Federal College for Animal Health & Production Technology, by the state government. Adesida also worked for Animal Care Konsult in Ibadan for a while. https://media.licdn.com/mpr/mpr/shrinknp_200_200/p/6/000/220/22e/1616ef2.jpg Not long after, Gboyega Adesida decided to explore the world of agri-business, in a bid to add value to the agriculture sector, using his experience and knowledge. This led to the birth of Charm Horizon International Farms, where he embarked on growing staples & vegetables on a large scale. The next step was to start supplying his farm produce to hotels, restaurant & grocery stores. Adesida opened his first physical store in the highbrow Banana Island, Ikoyi in Lagos - an estate which houses some of the most expensive pieces of real estate, in the country. He currently employs 16 people and has partnered with the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) to expose other young graduates to agriculture.

They produce fresh vegetables, coloured peppers, plum tomatoes, carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, beetroot, sweet corn, mint, thyme, parsley, celery, radish, tarragon, coriander, rosemary, irish potatoes, cabbage etc., and package them, ready for consumption. https://premiumtimesng.com/dev/wp-content/files/2013/10/gardeneggs-465x349.jpg [img]http://3.bp..com/-gMC4NrHcIZk/Uq28iuSzCkI/AAAAAAAACC8/8ziQlEM4LJI/s1600/IMG_80478187729492.jpeg[/img] All their vegetables are produced under hygienic greenhouse operations. They are planning to embark on a new venture (i.e. processing of beetroot plant into juice). The demand for beetroot plant has increased from 35% to 90% in the last six months. To guarantee this supply, processing the fruit into juice is key to its success.

Obi1kenobi:You obviously have a problem with Yorubas. So I suggest you sort it out with them, because I am not from the Southwest and I cannot hold brief for them, even though I do have quite a lot of respect for them. I do not agree with you that nobody takes the IPOB piglets serious. The fact that you might be able to dismiss their rantings, does not mean others would easily do the same. The Arewa youths took the rantings of the IPOB piglets and their leaders seriously enough, which led them to issue the Kaduna declaration. I agree to a large extent that it does not take much to provoke the half-educated brainwashed almajiris up North, but then if your folks up North already knew the volatile nature of their hosts, why did they allow Kanu to stoke the fires of hate speech for so long, without taking steps to douse it, until their hosts decided to react? Please do not forget one thing - the freedom to swing your arms, ends where your neighbour's nose, begins. It is time for the IPOBians to learn how to speak responsibly & realise that every action they take, has far-reaching consequences not just for them, but also their people in different parts of this country. No one should take the heat for their actions, anymore. ![]() |
Mbediogu:Igbos don't practice....what? They don't have children from a previous relationship, get divorced and then go on to marry other divorcees or people who may also have had kids from a different relationship? Am not Idoma, but I know quite well that blended families are a fact of life, in many Nigerian cities and towns. |
Kazim88:Why should they employ me, when I have no link to them? I believe in calling a spade, a spade and not an agricultural implement. Oga, stop this long epistle of excuses, and admit the truth. Kanu was the one who put the livelihood and residency of the Igbos in the North into jeopardy, with his utterances. ![]() So they should face him squarely, instead of running to the UN, Amnesty International and Israel for support. And you need to stop contradicting yourself. If you say the Igbos in the North are powerful, why then are they seeking for help from UN, Amnesty International and Israel against those who issued them a quit notice? End of story. |
stanluiz:Whose master? Or haven't the Arewa youths shown you and your people, that they are your masters? Didn't your folks start running from pillar to post, from Amnesty to Israel to the UN, when the Kaduna declaration was issued? Forget it - those youths have shown you they are your bosses! Tell Kanu to be more careful with his utterances so that he does not put your people in the North, in jeopardy. End of story.Yyeske:Abeg, I no fit laugh again.... ![]()
|
Yyeske:Don't mind him. The IPOBians are actually Japanese! They made a detour in Taiwan and Malaysia on their way down here.... |
Kazim88:My friend, keep kwayiet dia! The Igbos in the North should turn their anger against Kanu whose speeches put their livelihood and residency in the north, into jeopardy. Why did they keep mute, when Kanu started his ranting instead of calling him to order? It is now that your people just realised that millions of Igbos own homes and properties in the North?? |
kp3tech:Attack who? ![]() |
stanluiz:Which trial? Is Kanu not in the Southeast, as we speak? ![]() |
Kazim88:I have read it. I did not see the word 'genocide' mentioned anywhere, inside it. I have also listened to Nnamdi Kanu's speeches on Radio Biafra. i have heard him threaten war, promising fights, and spewing hatred against other ethnic groups, with his IPOB followers cheering him on. Who is the real terrorist here? Kanu is also as guilty of terrorism, if you truly want to be objective. ![]() |
stanluiz:You are daft. There are over 250 ethnic groups in Nigeria, yet you think everyone who disagrees with your point of view is Yoruba or a Muslim? Didn't you go to school? ![]() |
kp3tech:What they said was that your people "should leave the North, by October 1st." They never said they would kill all southerners in the North. Afterall, your folks had been saying they wanted to leave Nigeria long before then, not so? Read, listen and comprehend.... |
234ng44uk:Gbam!! |
Kazim88:What is the meaning of this long epistle? Why do you people suffer from selective amnesia like this? Didn't Kanu insult entire ethnic groups and vilify them? Your people supported him & cheered him on, claiming he was their messiah! Didn't he issue threats to destroy Nigeria, if he did not get his way? But when the Arewa youths replied to him in kind, by asking him & his people to leave the north, you chaps started claiming they were planning genocide, and then started running to UN, Israel etc., to ask them to intervene. Na wa, o! So in your view Kanu is right to issue such vile statements, but the Arewa youths are wrong to react to his threats? Not so? ![]() |
scarr:Stop dreaming. Wake up, bro'. ![]() |
bfn1:I tell you!! If this wildlife sanctuary was located in an East African country, they would have made multimillions from it, through tourism and wildlife adventure packages. Cross River State (and indeed, Nigeria) is literally sitting on a gold mine, here! They should host the next Gulder Ultimate Search series, in this location. All those looking for locations in South Africa to shoot adverts and musical videos should try out this place.... |
rumours:Mind yahself, o! Who told you they were easily manipulated? The word 'manipulatable,' does not exist in the English dictionary... |
Jiang:Abeg, I no fit laugh again. When Kanu was throwing his threats around on Radio Biafra, where was this lawyer?Kanu warned that the Indigenous People of Biafra would commence what they called a new wave of freedom fighting, to carve a separate state of Biafra from the present Nigeria. He said the implication of what they were doing was that they have honoured their dead and remembered those that fought and died for Biafra” stressing that from this day onwards they would now do proper freedom fighting, the way it should be done.
|
Mbediogu:I have read it, and my comment still stands. A person might share the same parents, with a step-sister or step brother conceived during a parent's previous relationship, but no blood ties. Ever heard of blended families? Agada did not use the word 'biological' when he was describing the parents, did he? |
Daniel2032:Is there any reason why you cannot post the prices and the pictures here? It makes everything more transparent & authentic, than when you keep asking people to Whatsapp you. Just my 2 cents... |

Mbediogu:True! Your parents may have given birth to both of you (i.e. their children) with other partners in previous relationships, before they eventually met up and got married. That way, the kids would not share blood ties. Just saying... ![]() |
Ojiofor:Oga, I believe you went to school. Anyone who can read, can see that you are just clutching at straws. The fact that they adopted the advice of the Igbo people living in their towns or villages, does not mean they had the same origin, with the Igbo. If they had the same origin with the Igbo, they would not have waited for the Igbo people to offer them their 'juju or masquerade, to keep the enemies at bay. It would have been ingrained in their traditional practices by their original ancestors, or it would have been an intrinsic part of their customs, from time immemorial, not an external tradition that was alien to their culture, until the Igbo suggested it to them. So this account clearly shows that the 'juju and masquerades, were not part of their culture or customs from inception, it was merely something that the people of that village/area in Benue, adopted after the Igbo had offered it to them. Acquiring something from another group, does not mean you originate from that same ethnic group, do you understand? Or is it too hard for you to comprehend? ![]() No matter how much a people may intermarry with another group, they still know their origins and ethnic roots. Stop trying to rewrite their history for them, biko. And stop trying to attach them to your people, by force. ![]() |
PRXPERT: PRXPERT:God bless you for educating the clueless ones, my brother! ![]() |
Ojiofor:You misread and misinterpreted his narrative. His own indigenous people were there, before the Igbo came to meet them there to trade with them, and even intermarry. QED! Like he said, when the war started the Igbo people in his community moved back to the east, but his own people could not move anywhere, as they had no other place to go, since that was their own land. ![]() |
