Thousands of youths from Cross River and its environs recently converged at Calabar International Convention Center(CICC). It was the 8th Career day, an annual event hosted by The Bridge Leadership Foundation. The event was beautifully packaged and the theme "Youths and good governance: the future we want" was just perfect for this very edition.
The event which held on 14th July 2018, had so many remarkable speakers. They were; Mr Tonye P. Cole, Mrs Toyosi Akerele-Ogunsiji, Mrs Victoria Ibezim-Ohaeri, Rt Hon (Barr) Onofiok Luke, Prof Paul Nwulu, Mr Hamzat Lawal, Mr Chris Ngwodo, Dr Oyeins Frankland Briyai, OAP Tolulope Adeleru-Balogun and Mrs Emilia Asim Ita. As a participant who had an awesome experience, I'll share some of the things I learnt with pictures too.
NOTES:
* Every action has a consequence and the consequence has a price. You have to know if you are willing to pay the price for the consequence of your actions.
*Every leader understands that network is important. The size and quality of your network will determine the size and quality of your net worth.
*5 things I do everyday
1. I impact a life.
2. I influence the next generation.
3. I must be a solution, not a problem.
4. I pour myself out to die empty.
5. I remain humble.
- Mr. Tonye Cole
CHANGE THESE MINDSETS
1. I am still young: Make your youthful exuberance work for you.
2. Self defeat
3. I need a fat salary
4. The greedy mind
5. Entitlement mentality
6. The pastor syndrome: some situations require action, not just prayers.
7. The urge to make early announcement
-Mrs Victoria Ibezim-Ohaeri
*Educate yourself about political issues and be involved with civil engagements.
-Dr Paul Nwulu
* Find your space and run your race.
*Success is not sweet if you don't have a story.
*If the idea is good, people will be willing to invest.
*The person who says you can't is afraid that you will.
*Vote for candidates based on common sense, not tribe, religion or body language.
- Mrs Toyosi Akerele-Ogunsiji
* Power is never given, power is taken.
- Mr Hamzat Lawal
*In Nigeria, we compete instead of collaborating.
*We don't have to be in a competition with ourselves to move Nigeria forward.
- Mr Chris Ngwodo
*Followers access us based on assets, cars and mountains we acquire. Access us by the basic needs we provide.
- Rt Hon (Barr) Onofiok Luke
*It is time for the youths to take up the challenge but in doing this, offer quality.
