     Four years ago, the leadership of FPE Students’ Union protested the usage of the school pavilion by the organisers of “Ogbeni Jubilee’s Cup” for the kick-off ceremony. It was a very unusual, unpleasant and bad day for Aregbesola, organisers of this competition, top officials in Osun Govt. and invited guests because they were thoroughly embarrassed, ridiculed and humiliated by the leadership of FPE Students’ Union. Despite pleas from government officials, organisers and invited guests; they did not allow these people to come into the pavilion and organisers were forced to pick another venue for the competition. Eventhough it was a political move sponsored by the opposition as opined by some students while union officials lamented that they were not informed by the school authority; at the final stage, the management of FPE proscribed the union for four years. There is no doubt that the suspension of union activities whenever there is a clash of interest betwee...

The country should not be put on hold because of one citizen.” ...

 ( As related  with Peter Ayodele Fayose, The governor of Ekiti State). True leadership is about the next generation and not the next election - Dunnex.  When silence is no longer golden, tell no lies,claim no easy victory, tell the truth the way it is- amical cabral With due respects to Christianity as a body, I have chosen to address the title of this piece by common terms in Christianity ; hallelujah & amen, since majority of the Ekiti's are very conversant with this words and it's in-depth meanings and respective importance in the christiandom. The former(hallelujah) can be properly defined as a particular gesture made by christians during worship, praises & other church activities, this requires the raising of hands far above the head in a flap-like manner. While, The latter(amen) can be said as a verbal expression which signifies the end of a prayer. Hebrew even  has it that Amen means 'So be it'.i.e Amen signifies the agreement to the prayer an...

Yesterday was a hard day for most stakeholders in the Yoruba section of the Nigerian film industry. Moji Olaiya, a popular cross-over actress had passed in faraway Canada. The mood around film locations in Lagos, Ibadan and Abeokuta was pensive. The loud wailing by some of the sympathizers foiled filming sessions; this was just as many stormed the actress’ UNILAG Estate home, Magodo to confirm with her aged mother. It was tears all the way. Moji, 42, niece to veteran highlife maestro Dr Victor Olaiya died two months after she had her second baby in Ontario, Canada. Although the childbirth was without complications, as the baby arrived two months earlier to her EDD, reports say the premature delivery saw the actress in and out of hospital for routine medical attention for mother and child. Irony however played a fast one on the thespian whose health condition appeared to have improved, as seen in a lively Instagram picture with her child two days earlier. She was thanking God f...

Success is a subjective notion, if there ever was one. But for simplicity's sake, let's assume the higher you are on  Maslow's hierarchy of needs , the better you're doing. In case you don't remember the levels from Psych 101, essentially, people can't be their best possible selves (self-actualization) until lower-level needs are met first. In other words, you can't be an ideal version of yourself if you don't have enough food and  money  to pay the bills, or enough love and esteem to  feel good  about your value as a human being. So, what can you do to move yourself up the pyramid? Check out the findings from several studies, which shine a light on what it takes to achieve more in life. Increase your confidence by taking action. Katty Kay and Claire Shipman, authors of  The Confidence Code , wrote a stellar article for  The Atlantic  on this subject. Highlighting scads of studies that have found that a wide confidence gap exists betw...
