Chief Eric Odinaka Umeofia
Chief Eric Ordinaka Umeofia is the President / C.E.O of the company. Aged about 49 years .After his primary school in Saint Andrew Primary school Amichi, he came to Lagos in 1970

If he is 49 years he couldn't have finished primary school in 1970. To be 49 he would have to have been born in 1967.

Nevertheless we celebrate his contribution to helping the fight against unemployment. This is a most noble gesture especially under the current harsh economic climate. Well Done Sir.

I heard this peller guy started out with Chris but fell out along the way. If he's now coming out to say this, I think he's being sentimental

If they do all these by the power peller talks about then shame on all the so called true pastors cuz their god is lame and powerless but the almighty God is super powerful and He always shows it.
Not the same Peller....The one you are thinking about has a church in Abuja and the names are spelt differently- (Pela) and hails from Edo state.

Nairaland GeneralRe: Graphic Photos From The Boat Mishap In Lagos This Morning by Shinor(m): 6:11pm On Jan 31, 2016
I have wondered for a long time what the role of the Lagos State Waterways Authority really is. The state of the ferries / boats being deployed by the operators of the allocated routes are very suspect. Sadly Fashola did nothing about the safety of the passengers and setting the right operating standards for the operators despite many lives that were lost. Ambode has inherited a very flawed sector. And I am hoping that he has the answer. I will never make use of those boats even if I was given a million naira to use it.
Do we need to clamour for foreign companies to come and run our waterways for us before the people can be safe?
Sadly only poor people use these boats and so the government is not really bothered.
Ambode please look into the boats being used for public transportation in Lagos. How many more will have to die before you do something?

It wouldn't be hard for her to know the exact bus he was entering.

Or it may be that the op in his excitement, unknowingly let out a clue about the 13k to the 'sharp' woman
Please which kind monitoring spirit? So the spirit didn't monitor when he went to the bank to deposit the 13k? A beg lets be realistic here.

Nigerians and their stupidity.
Why would they tie him down with a rope ??
Even if he killed 40 people, No civilian should take laws in their hands.

In developed countries, the people who did this to him will get not less than 5 years in prison.
In the UK you can arrest and restrain anyone. It's called citizens arrest. Didn't you read that he was tied while awaiting the police?

Stop lying. Which developed countries? In Florida an unarmed boy was shot dead based on suspicion alone and nothing happened to the shooter. Stop lying in 2016.

I sympathize with you and the predicament in which you found yourself. But honestly you could have gone ahead to treat the patient and expose the the Dr that told you not to treat any patient until they paid.
As a doctor you know your first duty to save lives. In this regard you and the senior colleague have failed and therefore contributed to the death of the young lady. I am sorry if I sound harsh it's just the way I see it.

EducationShaping A Child's Future Through Reading by Shinor(op): 3:01pm On Nov 19, 2015
"The more that you read the more things you will know.
The more that you learn, the more places you will go" - Dr Seuss


[b]Reading is an extremely powerful tool but many are yet to realise its potential to literally transform lives. Take a look at world today - great men and women always point to the books they read as part of what helped them to achieve great success.
In Australia a research was carried out on two sets of 8 month old babies. One set was read to regularly while the other set was not. By the time they were ready for preschool, the set that was read to regularly had developed a rich vocabulary than the group that did not engage in any reading.
Therefore it most pertinent that parents and guardians do all in their power to get their children / wards into the habit of reading from an early age.


Creating a love of reading is one way of improving the academic standards in school. Schools should invest in a variety of books for all ages and tastes. There are many organizations worldwide that can assist schools with the provision of suitable books.
Reading aloud develops speaking skills which in turn helps build self confidence.
Helps children gain new ideas
Reading for pleasure is more likely to determine whether a child does well at school.
Reading is about acquiring meaning, enjoyment, information and understanding. Teachers, Parents and Guardians should always bear this in mind. Reading is not reading unless what is read is understood.

Tech JobsNairalander Builds Simple Web Based Mentoring App - The Youth Mentor by Shinor(op): 6:45pm On Nov 09, 2015
[b]Mentoring App Targeting 1 Million African Youths Unveiled

I will start by saying I AM NOT IN ANYWAY a computer guru. All I had was just an idea to mentor young people in far flung and remote places via the internet. This is the result of my very crude attempt to create an app. However I believe the articles and stories as well as our video channel contain enough materials that will inspire and motivate.

If you are an African youth looking for a new and engaging way to get inspired and stay motivated, then you need The Youth Mentor

Available to download for free from the Google Play store for all android devices, The Youth Mentor is already creating a buzz - and rightly so, it’s one of the most original mentoring apps the Google Play store has seen in months.

Most simply, The Youth Mentor is an app that acts as a one stop shop for young people seeking inspiration and motivation. The user has unrestricted access to a variety of resources contained in buttons under various headings such as Success Nuggets, Simply Inspiring, Blogs, Question and Answer, and even its own YouTube channel containing a number of inspirational videos. Users say every time they use the app its like being with a real mentor.
.

The idea behind The Youth Mentor app is Nigerian born author, mentor and Special London Ambassador who was one of the special mentors at the 2012 Olympic Games – Sina Adelaja-Olowoake. He hopes to mentor 1 million African youths via this app keeping them feeling inspired and motivated.

[b]Nigerian Universities to watch out for in 2016
The Gaskiya.net ranking of Nigerian universities for 2015 limits itself to identifying the 10 best universities in the country. Our assessment and perception survey suggested that many of the over 140 institutions of higher learning were unworthy of any credible listing. Furthermore, the cost of our enquiry was huge and we felt that it would be unprofitable to invest time, energy and other resources evaluating academic institutions which, for all intents and purposes, should be affiliates of older and more established institutions for mentorship and guidance. Many, to put it mildly, should be University Colleges, rather than fully fledged institutions standing on their own! Before we announce our rankings, given the fact that they do not exceed ten, we have elected to first announce those institutions who did not make it into our ranking but with whom our assessors were impressed and thus consider to be worthy of commendation. These universities are:

EducationRe: Pupils Still Sit On Bare Floor To Learn At Schools In Delta (photo) by Shinor(m): 6:45pm On Sep 22, 2015
Today across the continent especially in primary and secondary schools the quality of teaching and teachers leaves much to be desired. Gone are the days when teachers chose the profession for the love of it. A lot of the teaching staff in schools currently are not trained or qualified to teach. Many only became emergency teachers after many years of unemployment.
Closely related to the issue of poor quality of teaching is the state of infrastructure. I am always shocked to see children studying under roofless classes or under trees in Africa in this day and age. In some cases, even the teachers and the school head sit under trees all day long. We have had many cases of schools lacking basic amenities such as water, toilets, etc. What kind of education are the children receiving?

EducationEducation Must Not Only Be Free But Qualitative Also by Shinor(op): 10:21pm On Sep 19, 2015
[b]We know politicians the world over make promises some of which they never plan to fulfil once the elections are over yet we still believe them and vote for them based on these empty promises. In Africa, politicians have identified the magic words that gets the young, the old, the strong, the feeble trooping to campaign grounds and polling stations – free education. From Ghana to Uganda, Nigeria to Zimbabwe, African voters are still being wooed with promises of free education by politicians.
With the 2016 elections fast approaching in Ghana, the ruling party last Friday rolled out its “progressive” free education programme which also includes the construction of new classroom blocks across the country.
Free education in Africa is not a new phenomenon. Many African countries in the period immediately following independence from the colonial masters, embarked on free and in some cases compulsory education programmes to help create a new set of trained administrators to fill the void left by the departing colonialists. During this time, the quality of education from the major providers namely the government, religious bodies and private organizations was at par with what was obtainable in the developed world. Unfortunately the same cannot be said for what passes for free education today.

EducationA Case For Outdoor Education - Kids Can Learn Beyond The Classroom Wall by Shinor(op): 11:06am On Sep 16, 2015
“ There’s no substitute for experience, so children should be given the opportunity to visit new places – and have a few adventures along the way - Mike Abraham"


I have been waiting for a long time to do this article but having just finished working through the summer with a number of youth organizations at various summer camps in the United Kingdom, I felt there was no better time than now as most of summer camps made fantastic use of the outdoors.
Despite the great benefits associated with outdoor education, I am still at a loss as to why it is not yet a popular part of our education curriculum in Nigeria.
Outdoor education includes things like engaging in physical activities, going on excursions, camping, adventure treks to drawing lessons out in the open and going to observe certain insects or animals in relation to the biology lessons. Pupils learn many skills by taking full advantage of the great outdoors – working on their own initiative as well as working as part of a team. The activities they engage in challenge them helping them to find solutions by thinking outside the box.
