Chams Plc, one of Nigeria’s leading companies has evolved over the last 3 decades from computer and hardware maintenance to the provision of enterprise technology solutions in identity management and identity transaction systems for the public and private sectors.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Recently, it facilitated the identification process for the government of the state of Osun. The initiative called ‘Kaadi Omoluabi’ has received several accolades and commendations from the Osun citizenry and other stakeholders within and outside the state.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Mr. OLUFEMI WILLIAMS, the Group Managing Director of the firm, in an interview with <em style="box-sizing: inherit;">The Nation</em> reporter <strong style="box-sizing: inherit;">MOSES EMORINKEN</strong> sheds some light on the relevance and ubiquitous benefits and solutions of data capturing to the social, economic and political problems bedeviling the country.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="box-sizing: inherit; color: navy;"><strong style="box-sizing: inherit;">What is the relevance of the Omoluabi Identity Card to the Osun citizenry?</strong></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
As His Excellency, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, the executive governor of the state of Osun mentioned at the launch of the initiative on Tuesday, the Identity Card Initiative is about knowing the people that he governs. There is no way the government can plan or manage the affairs of the state, especially with respect to what the people want without detailed understanding of biometric statistics.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
It also helps the government measure the effectiveness of the services it delivers to the people.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
It creates a platform for any member of the state to conveniently transact with the government and vice-versa.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
For instance, if the government wants to build new schools or construct new roads, it can easily make objective and informed decisions about which part(s) of the state needs these infrastructural facilities depending on the population of the people, where economic transactions are preponderant, etc.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
It allows government institutions to have interconnected database. It cuts out the duplicity in registering and capturing biometric data of its citizenry. This initiative provides a unique number that can be used for such purposes.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
We did it for students and the impact was major. Immediately, the cost of managing, sponsoring and promoting affairs around the educational sector was optimized. Before then, there were haphazard approaches because of the paucity in statistics.</div>

<span style="box-sizing: inherit; color: navy;"><strong style="box-sizing: inherit;">How long did it take CHAMS to come up with this solution?</strong></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
This is the forte and core competence area of CHAMS. We have participated in similar projects in the past. We have been on this project for four years. The reason was because the government had more pressing project at the time before very recently it decided to take up the Identity Card Initiative.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
This novel innovation in identity capturing is not only opened to indigenes of the state but also to residents within the state.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">

<span style="box-sizing: inherit; color: navy;"><strong style="box-sizing: inherit;">What is the level of response of the people of the state to this initiative?</strong></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
The responses have been very encouraging from members of private organisations and the civil society. They believe that the initiative is very timely and custom-made for the people and government of the state.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="box-sizing: inherit; color: navy;"><strong style="box-sizing: inherit;">Does CHAMS have plans to diversify into other real sectors?</strong></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Our core focus lies in delivering intelligent business solutions. However, there are two major industries we intend to dominate in the next few months, they are – Agriculture and Health acre. For now, that is all we can reveal.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="box-sizing: inherit; color: navy;"><strong style="box-sizing: inherit;">Is it possible to have a central database for the biometric data of Nigeria to avoid proliferation and duplicity?</strong></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
This can be answered in two ways – technical and political. I have an authoritative response to the former but with little or no political explanations for the later.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Technically, one of the projects awarded for data capturing in 1976 by former President Olusegun Obasanjo would have solved it. However, the problems of awarding and re-awarding contracts have brought us to where we are today.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
The only solution is what the Federal Government is trying to do – which is harmonization. There is a need to harmonize these databases together. The process will be challenging but not impossible to do. At the moment there exists huge repository of data at the Federal Road Safety Commission ( FRSC ), sim card registration centres, Independent National Electoral Commission ( INEC ), Nigerian Communications Commission ( NCC ), states etc. There are solutions and technologies that can harmonize data effectively.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="box-sizing: inherit; color: navy;"><strong style="box-sizing: inherit;">What exactly is CHAMS as an organisation doing differently?</strong></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Every business goes through series of transformations. For CHAMS, we have evolved overtime according to the overwhelming changes in the needs, expectations and taste of consumers. We started as a Computer Hardware and Maintenance Company, to Networking and then to Smart Card Technology. It was the Smart Card Technology that led to the formation of value card; which was the first successful payment card in Nigeria.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
After a while, we moved into Identity Management because we realised that the problem(s) of this country will not disappear until we solve the processes of identity. Identity is like the Certificate of Ownership (C of O) for land. The (C of O) is an ordinary document, however, because we believe that the (C of O) represents a land somewhere, we can conveniently do a transaction with it. The same things can be done with the identity number to represent a person.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 1.625rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">

Here is announcing the signed partnership between Chams and CAPDAN – (Computer and Allied Product Dealers Association of Nigeria), which is the umbrella body of shop owners and operators at the very popular Computer Village, Otigba Market, Ikeja.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 20px; text-align: justify;">
This partnership is to deliver the following<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />products/services:</div>
<ol style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<li style="box-sizing: border-box;">A unified identity system with an Identification card and Number for all businesses in the Market.</li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box;">An identity verification platform for verifying 3rd partied-dealers who sell off-used devices to businesses in Otigba market.</li>
</ol>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 20px; text-align: justify;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;"> </em></strong>The implication of this is that anyone or business who want to sell used devices to any business or retailer in Computer village, will be verified on the ConfirmMe platform at the point of consummating such deals. With this, the identities of the transacting parties will be verified and linked to the product sold in-case of the claim of theft or related claims by supposed owners of the items.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 20px; text-align: justify;">
This is a major stride in our bid to bring identity management to bear on our everyday living and dealings</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 16.5pt;">An
annular eclipse that will be visible all over the country, with different
degrees of totality, will occur on Thursday, September 1.</span></div>
<o:p></o:p><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 16.5pt; margin-bottom: 15pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "lato" , serif; font-size: 13.0pt;">In a
press statement, the Head, Media and Corporate Communications of National Space
Research and Development Agency (NASRDA), Dr Felix Ale, said the highest degree
of obscurity in Nigeria during this natural occurence would be in the Southern
part of the country, particularly in Lagos, where it was expected to have 80
per cent obscurity, while the lowest degree of obscurity would be about 45 per
cent and this would be observed in the Northern part of the country,
particularly in Sokoto.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 16.5pt; margin-bottom: 15pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "lato" , serif; font-size: 13.0pt;">The
annular eclipse will be observed as a partial or near total eclipse across the
nation, with Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) expected to be about 60
per cent.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 16.5pt; margin-bottom: 15pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "lato" , serif; font-size: 13.0pt;">The
annular eclipse is expected to occur between 7.15 a.m. and 10.03 a.m, with
slight variations in actual timing across the country.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 16.5pt; margin-bottom: 15pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "lato" , serif; font-size: 13.0pt;">In
Lagos, the first contact will occur at about 7.15 a.m, while the maximum
eclipse will occur around 8.30 a.m. and will end by 10.03 a.m.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 16.5pt; margin-bottom: 15pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "lato" , serif; font-size: 13.0pt;">The
eclipse is expected to commence in Abuja around 7.17 a.m, with maximum eclipse
to be recorded at about 8.32 a.m. and the eclipse will end around 10.00 a.m.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 16.5pt; margin-bottom: 15pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "lato" , serif; font-size: 13.0pt;">It
should be noted that eclipse is not a spiritual issue, but a natural occurrence
that can be accurately predicted by science. Hence, the NASRDA has developed
the capacity to accurately make this prediction as part of its mandates.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 16.5pt; margin-bottom: 15pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "lato" , serif; font-size: 13.0pt;">The
Space Agency has also put in place a viewing centre at her headquarters in
Abuja, with provision of proper eclipse viewing apparatus for school children
to observe the annular eclipse as part of its continuous programmes to expose
Nigerians and students to matters concerning astronomical environment.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 16.5pt; margin-bottom: 15pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "lato" , serif; font-size: 13.0pt;">While
appealing to the general public not to panic or adduce any mystical
interpretations to this event, it is also necessary to advise that nobody
should observe eclipse with Unclad eyes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 16.5pt; margin-bottom: 15pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "lato" , serif; font-size: 13.0pt;">Looking
at the solar eclipse with Unclad eyes can lead to permanent damage to the eyes,
as the obstruction does not reduce the luminosity of the sun.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 16.5pt; margin-bottom: 15pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "lato" , serif; font-size: 13.0pt;">Therefore,
NASRDA has also concluded arrangements to provide limited number of special
solar filters to members of the public to savour the rare natural occurrence in
appreciation of science and nature.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 16.5pt; margin-bottom: 15pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "lato" , serif; font-size: 13.0pt;">An
annular eclipse occurs when the sun and moon are exactly in line, but the
apparent size of the moon is smaller than that of the sun, hence, the sun
appears as a very bright ring or annulus surrounding the dark disk of the moon.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">I was waiting in line for a ride at the airport in India. When a
cab pulled up, the first thing I noticed was that the taxi was polished to a
bright shine. Smartly dressed in a white shirt, black tie, and freshly pressed
black slacks, the cab driver jumped out and rounded the car to open the back
passenger door for me.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">He handed me a laminated card and said: 'I'm Wasu, your driver.
While I'm loading your bags in the trunk I'd like you to read my mission
statement.'<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Taken aback, I read the card. It said: Wasu's Mission Statement:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">To get my customers to their destination in the quickest, safest
and cheapest way possible in a friendly environment.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">This blew me away. Especially when I noticed that the inside of
the cab matched the outside. Spotlessly clean!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">As he slid behind the wheel, Wasu said, 'Would you like a cup of
coffee? I have a thermos of regular and one of decaf.'<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">I said jokingly, 'No, I'd prefer a soft drink.'<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Wasu smiled and said, 'No problem. I have a cooler up front with
regular and Diet Coke, lassi, water and orange juice.'<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Almost stuttering, I said, 'I'll take a Lassi.'<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Handing me my drink, Wasu said, 'If you'd like something to read,
I have The NST , Star and Sun Today.'<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">As they were pulling away, Wasu handed me another laminated card,
'These are the stations I get and the music they play, if you'd like to listen
to the radio.'<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">And as if that weren't enough, Wasu told me that he had the air
conditioning on and asked if the temperature was comfortable for me.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Then he advised me of the best route to my destination for that
time of day. He also let me know that he'd be happy to chat and tell me about
some of the sights or, if I preferred, to leave me with my own thoughts.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">'Tell me, Wasu,' I was amazed and asked him, 'have you always
served customers like this?'<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Wasu smiled into the rear view mirror. _"No, not always. In
fact, it's only been in the last two years. My first five years driving, I
spent most of my time complaining like all the rest of the cabbies do.
Then I heard about POWER OF CHOICE one day."_<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">*Power of choice is that you can be a duck or an eagle*.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">'If you get up in the morning expecting to have a bad day, you'll
rarely disappoint yourself. Stop complaining!' <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">'Don't be a duck. Be an eagle. Ducks quack and complain. Eagles
soar above the crowd.'<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">'That hit me. really hard' said Wasu. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">'It is about me. I was always quacking and complaining, so I
decided to change my attitude and become an eagle. I looked around at the other
cabs and their drivers. The cabs were dirty, the drivers were unfriendly, and
the customers were unhappy. So I decided to make some changes, slowly ... a few
at a time. When my customers responded well, I did more.'<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">'I take it that it has paid off for you,' I said.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">'It sure has,' Wasu replied. 'My first year as an eagle, I doubled
my income from the previous year. This year I'll probably quadruple it. My
customers call me for appointments on my cell phone or leave a message on it.'<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Century Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Wasu made a different choice. He decided to stop quacking like a
duck and start soaring like an eagle.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">

<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHa19mXni1L3j9KUUJl3TrXIwD9Daq5cpdZD-bZP1HuMyc68ftb0IVwE_imHmKFIzHijxD1Ova6pridzLC72w6e0Kv7AUAnf0HovtPf7Nu498CWYTY6GwoB2SXXMlvMT7vuBgSWAMJnyA/s1600/600x400.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHa19mXni1L3j9KUUJl3TrXIwD9Daq5cpdZD-bZP1HuMyc68ftb0IVwE_imHmKFIzHijxD1Ova6pridzLC72w6e0Kv7AUAnf0HovtPf7Nu498CWYTY6GwoB2SXXMlvMT7vuBgSWAMJnyA/s320/600x400.jpg" width="320" /></a><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Slavery existed in Africa, it is an indisputable fact and it
is not a good memory. Slavery is wrong from every perspective and the team and
no one should support it in any way, be it physical, emotional or otherwise.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">There are a lot of things most Nigerians do not know about slavery, and
sometimes they prefer to believe otherwise. These misconceptions could be as a
result of what we have been taught in school or as a result of what our minds
want us to believe and yet, it could be the hand work of Nollywood. Any ways we
are going to expose some unknown facts about slavery.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">10. Slavery did not start in Africa</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It might seem that when the Europeans discovered Africa, the immediately came
up with a new idea known as slavery. The truth is slavery is actually as old as
man itself. Slavery is an ancient practice. It was mentioned by Aristotle, it
is mentioned in records that date back to 1760 B.C. it is also mentioned in the
bible. So don’t even start to think that slavery started with Africans.
Surprisingly, we were already enslaving ourselves before the Europeans joined
in the trade.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">9. Europeans did not came to Africa and captured slaves by force</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">European slave traders rarely ventured beyond Africa's coastal regions. The
African interior was riddled with disease, the natives were often hostile and
the land uncharted. The Europeans preferred to stay in the coastal region and
have the natives bring the slaves to them.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The majority of those slaves were actually sold to Europeans by other African
slave traders—slave traders who had been operating on the continent for
thousands of years.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Slave traders realized that Europeans would pay for their slaves; they actively
began kidnapping people just to sell them.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">8. Africans also had European slaves</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">When the word slavery is mentioned, the first image that comes to your mind is
a white man with a long whip flogging the hell out of some black men in chains.
Well, this is an eye opener. Egyptians were using Caucasian slaves in their
armies during the thirteenth century. Over 1 million Europeans were taken as
slaves by north Africans between the years 1530 and 1780.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Slavery apart from being an ancient practice, it also a widespread practice and
it existed everywhere. What is the moral of this? Anybody can be a slave, no
one is above slavery.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">7. All whites wanted slavery to continue</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">False, not every white man wanted slavery to continue. In fact one of the
causes of the American civil war which was fought between 1861 and 1865 was
slavery. The American civil war had a death toll of about 620,000 people dead
and about a lot more wounded, all partly because of slavery.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">And did we also mention that some blacks also owned slaves? Well……..</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">6. A black man started slavery, officially.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">You would think that with all the suffering portrayed by historians a black man
would not own a slave, think again. Slavery was officially established in the
United States of America in 1654, when Anthony Johnson, a black man, convinced
a court that his servant (also black) John Casor was his for life. Johnson
himself had been brought to Virginia some years earlier as an indentured
servant (a person who must work to repay a debt, or on contract for so many
years in exchange for food and. The court ruled in Johnson’s favor, and the
very first officially state-recognized slave existed. Johnson eventually became
very wealthy and began importing his own black slaves from Africa.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">5. Christianity doesn’t disapprove slavery.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We do not like to talk about religion, politics and sports, but this is
inevitable. I hate to burst your bubble but did you remember when Jesus healed
the centurion’s servant? Jesus didn’t take the time to condemn the man for
having a slave or tell him that slavery is wrong. Saint Paul said this to slave
owners: “Do not threaten [your slaves], since you know that He who is both
their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no favoritism with Him”
(Ephesians 6:9). There was even a short period when it was allowed to own a
slave with special permission from the pope Nicholas V in 1452</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">4. Southern American are among the culprits</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Of the 10 to 16 million Africans who survived the voyage to the New World, over
one-third landed in Brazil and between 60 and 70 percent ended up in Brazil or
the sugar colonies of the Caribbean. Only 6 percent arrived in what is now the
United States.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This is probably rarely noticed because the living conditions of slaves in
Latin America was a lot harsh and thus a higher death rate compared to that of
British North America</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">3. Monrovia</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Monrovia is the capital of Liberia. We all know that the Liberia was formed by
American slaves who had been freed. What you might not know is that its
capital, Monrovia, was named after President James Monroe for his efforts.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">2. Most slaves were close to their captors</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We pointed out that slavery was in existence in Africa before the arrival of
the Europeans and that a black man officially started slavery. That is not the
end of the story, it gets worse. Most slaves were close to their captors? As a
historian recounted;</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">“During my stay on the coast of Africa, I was an eye-witness of the following
transaction: a black trader invited a Negro, who resided a little, way up the
country, to come and see him. After the entertainment was over, the trader
proposed to his guest, to treat him with a sight of one of the ships lying in
the river. The unsuspicious countryman readily consented, and accompanied the
trader in a canoe to the side of the ship, which he viewed with pleasure and
astonishment. While he was thus employed, some black traders on board, who
appeared to be in the secret, leaped into the canoe, seized the unfortunate
man, and dragging him into the ship, immediately sold him.”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">And lot more stories of that kind. It is really a pity</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">1. Slavery is not totally over</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">According to studies done by anti-slavery groups, there are currently more slaves
today than at any time in history! Three quarters are female and over half are
children. It is believed that there are around 27 million people in slavery
right now. Furthermore, this number does not include people who are not
technically slaves but are in a form of servitude tantamount to slavery.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The FOS/ILO National Child Labour Survey (2003) estimates that there are 15
million children engaged in child labour in Nigeria with 40% of them at the
risk of being trafficked both internally and externally for domestic and forced
labour, prostitution, entertainment, pornography, armed conflict, and sometimes
ritual killings.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The essence of this article is our own way of saying no to child abuse, human
trafficking and all similar crimes against humanity. Say no to child labour,
say no to human trafficking.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;"><span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">A few
years ago, I took my mentoring group on a ropes course. For one of the
challenges, we walked a long stretch of rope that wound around several trees.
We had to hold onto each other as we worked our way across the line.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">Here’s
what I remember most of all: When we were balanced, it never really felt like
we were. Our legs constantly moved and wobbled, and we strained to grip each
other and the nearest tree. But we stayed on that line a long time: making
little corrections, adjusting our weight, and trying to stay upright.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">It
didn’t feel like balance, but it was. And that’s exactly how life is, right?<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;">I’ve
written before about the </span><span style="border: 1pt none; font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt; padding: 0in;">symphonic life</span><span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;">: the idea of allowing all the parts of our
life to play at the right pace and volume. It’s a metaphor for balance.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">But
what about the people that say work-life balance is a myth, an unattainable
condition we all hope for but need to forget about? It’s only a myth if we
misunderstand what balance means.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">Here
are three vital aspects of balance we need to keep in mind, especially as we
apply the concept to our work and life:<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.25in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;">1.<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal;">
</span></span><!--[endif]--><b><span style="border: 1pt none; font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt; padding: 0in;">Balance is not the same as rest.</span></b><span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;"> If
we think that attaining balance means finally getting a much-needed break, then
we’re missing something important. It’s not about rest, </span><span style="border: 1pt none; font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt; padding: 0in;">though it does include it</span><span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;">.
Balance is about distributing demands so we can stay on track. And sometimes
that takes a lot of work. If that’s where you’re at right now, don’t be
discouraged. It’s just part of the challenge.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.25in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;">2.<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal;">
</span></span><!--[endif]--><b><span style="border: 1pt none; font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt; padding: 0in;">Balance is dynamic.</span></b><span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;"> “Life
is like riding a bicycle,” Albert Einstein said. “In order to keep your
balance, you must keep moving.” We’ve all experienced this. The slower you go,
the more trouble it is to keep your bike up. Momentum helps us stay on course.
It’s the same for all the corrections and adjustments we make along the way.
Balance requires tweaking our schedule, task lists, and more. If you have it
right one week, it still requires attention the next—which lead us to No. 3.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.25in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;">3.<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal;">
</span></span><!--[endif]--><b><span style="border: 1pt none; font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt; padding: 0in;">Balance is intentional.</span></b><span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;"> Our
bodies are programed to stay upright, but it takes a bit more focus when it
comes to the complex responsibilities and relationships that make up our lives.
We have to make purposeful decisions and actions if we want balance. It’s not
accidental. Those decisions and actions will look different for each of us, but
they’re essential for all of us just the same.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;">If
we’ve bought the </span><span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;"><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in; text-decoration: none;">myth of fun, fast, and easy</span></span><span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;">, then we might be
tempted to look at work-life balance as a sort of get-out-of-jail-free card. If
we just get the right combination of job, family, rest, and hobbies going in
our favor, then we’re home free. But that’s just magical thinking.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">Balance
isn’t easy, fast, or always fun. It requires constant movement, constant

<span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">That’s
why it can feel like we’re not truly balanced, even when we are. Sometimes when
we’re doing exactly what is required to keep our balance, we feel the most
unbalanced. That’s only because we’ve misunderstood balance; we expect it to do
something for our lives that it can’t.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit , serif; font-size: 18pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">But
once we adjust our perspective, we can see it for what it is—a difficult but
necessary way to approach our lives. Rather than be discouraged when the
challenge becomes hard, we can recognize the difficulty as just part of the
course.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Chams PLC held its 32nd Annual General meeting (AGM) at the Agip recital hall of the Muson Centre, Onikan, Lagos on the 18th of July, 2016 with over 350 shareholders in attendance. It was reported that two directors in the persons of Mr. Ben Akabueze and Alhaji Idi Farouk had retired from the board of directors.</div>

Ayo Richards pointed out that the 2015 financial year was generally affected by the economic and political instability in the country during said period. He went on to say that the falling through of the NIMC concession and the subsequent shut down of Chams City also affected the company’s financials. In addition, he promised that all hands were on deck to ensure that Chams PLC had a better 2016.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; text-align: justify;">
The Group Managing Director, Mr. Olufemi Williams highlighted some of the innovative products and projects the company had completed and are still working on to ensure that the tide of the company is turned around in 2016. He referred to the 2016 half year financial statement to substantiate his claim.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; text-align: justify;">
In the first half ended June 30, 2016, Chams grew turnover to N683.5 million as against N673.26 million recorded in comparable period of 2015. Gross profit improved from N302.70 million in first half 2015 to N393.98 million in 2016. As against pre-tax loss of N4633.96 million recorded in first half of 2015, the company returned to profit in 2016 with a pre-tax profit of N160.32 million. After taxes, net profit stood at N159.82 million by first half of 2016 compared with loss of N463.96 million recorded in the same period in 2015. Total asset has risen from N9.14 billion by June 2015 to N9.97 billion by June 2016.</div>

model for happiness. If we become CEO, then we'll be happy. If we make a
six-figure salary, then we'll be happy. There is nothing that you have to get,
do or be in order to be happy.</span></span></b><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;"></span></div>

Multitasking simply means that you do many things badly and take much more time
at it. Instead work on tasks for 20-minute intervals that you gradually
increase to two-hour spans. Turn off any electronic gadgets that can be a
distraction. With practice, you'll be able to accomplish much more and with
less effort.</span></div>

you well and allows you to do some kind of social good, work with brilliant and
likable colleagues and still be home in time for dinner. But be warned against
searching for that perfect position, or even believing that it exists. Instead,
change how you think about your current situation. For example, instead of
thinking of yourself as a product manager or (name your position), identify
yourself as someone who helps other employees in the company provide for their
families and help make a profitable return to the organization as well as
putting smiles on the shareholders face.</span></div>

is limited and there's not enough success in it for me. Instead, be happy,
because whatever happened to him will happen to you in your current job or at
another company.</span></div>

Instead, when you make an error, be aware of it without passing judgment. Do
what you have to do, but don't surrender your calmness and sense of peace.</span></div>

the hang of it.</span></div>

problems that kept you awake ten years ago have disappeared. Much of what
troubles you today will also vanish. Realising this truth will help you gain

from adversity. You spend too much time in needless, fruitless
self-recrimination and blaming others. You go on pointless guilt trips and make
excuses that you know are fatuous. If you're resilient, you recover and go on
to do great things.</span></div>

yourself up for disappointment if you focus too much on what you hope to
achieve rather than how you plan to get there.</span></div>

every man for him or herself, it’s better to inhabit an other-centered
universe. If the nice guy gets passed over for a promotion, he may still
succeed in less tangible ways. He may rise later, and stronger. Challenge the
assumption that you need to be a dog-eat-dog person to survive in a corporate
environment.</span></div>

today’s business world has grown even stiffer, making it really tough to stand
out and shine through the clutter. Results and lots of extracurricular
activities alone won’t guarantee that.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>So, one of the best ways of staying ahead of the pack in today’s
business world is to stand out, have a unique brand amongst peers. </span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 150%;">Bottom line, It’s
about bringing who you are to what you do and how you do it. It’s about making
your mark by being your-best-self. It's about what you're known for and how
people experience you. Now that is personal Branding and if you don’t know, you
already have one. </span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 150%;">How to prove it,
Ask your friend, colleague or just a neutral person what they think when they
see you or hear your name. </span></span></span></div>

somewhat ‘digital natives’. We are citizens of 2, 3 or even more digital/social
media communities - LinkedIN, facebook, twitter, Instagram, Blogs etc. All of
these are some of the composite part of your personal brand. They speak volume
about you, have shaped people opinion about you. </span></span></span></div>

wondered why some people do not take you seriously, you need to check what it
is you’re churning out physically, socially, or digitally. Good news is this,
while you may not be able to do much about what you’ve already put out there,
what is sure is that you can manage it better to make people see about you what
it is that you want them to see. </span></span></span></div>

wrong, personal branding is not only for celebrities, business men are in fact
even more into it. Aliko Dangote, Femi Otedola, Tony Elumelu, Ibukun Awosika,
Christopher Kolade, Peter Obi, Demola Aladekomo etc., are top professionals who
have also built successful personal brand, if they did it, then it speaks
volume of the importance of personal branding.</span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 150%;"> A Personal Brand
Survey enables you to gather data regarding your attributes, skills,
competencies and strengths that define your brand. The process begins with a
self-assessment and is followed by requesting feedback from others so you can
compare how you view yourself with how you are currently perceived. The results
will enable you to identify areas that you want to accentuate and areas you
want to diminish as you define your personal brand.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 150%;">When branding
yourself your job is not to be ‘famous’, but rather to be ‘selectively famous’.
In other words, identify the people who need your leadership and communicate
your brand only to them. This target audience are the only ones who need to
know you. They are the ones who will ultimately make the critical decision to
follow you. Once you know your target audience, do everything in your power to
nurture them.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 150%;">What do you want
to be known for? Having an answer to this question defines what your target audience
can expect from your leadership. Remember, this statement is NOT your title! It
is also not your personal mission or life purpose. It is a memorable 1-2
sentence statement that is solutions oriented. Here is a great template to use
when crafting your brand statement:</span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 150%;">I want to be

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 150%;">It is vital that
you truly identify with your brand statement. You need to live and breathe this
every day so take the time to make sure it best represents who you are and what
you can do.</span></span></span></div>

wheel, the hub,<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"> </span>keeps the spokes together. Likewise the center of your plan is
the core leadership message you want to communicate to your target audience.
Your communication vehicles, or spokes, radiate out of your core message and
provide the support to keep your plan together. These may include presenting at
conferences, joining professional organizations, using social media, creating a
blog, writing an article or book for publication, etc.</span></span></span></div>

vehicles that you will enjoy doing and will actually enable your personal brand
to reach your target audience. Remember, a broken spoke makes a wheel wobble
and lose its strength. Select vehicles that you are strong at, or at least ones
you are happy to make stronger. Schedule these ‘spokes’ into your calendar and
commit to executing and repeating them.</span></span></span></div>

constancy.</span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 150%;">Clarity: Always
be very clear about who you are and who you are not. By knowing your unique
promise of value you are identifying what sets your apart from others. This is
what differentiates you and allows you to attract brand loyalty among the
people who are compelled to do business with you.</span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 150%;">Consistency: Once
you are clear about your promise of value, consistently demonstrate your brand
promise everywhere. This includes your social media profiles, your website,
your business cards, your communications. Everything.</span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 150%;">Constancy: It is
not enough to be clear and consistent if you are not always visible to your
target audience. Strong brands are constant. They are always there for their
customers, prospects, and those who can help them achieve their goals. Be
visible or run the risk of being forgotten!</span></span></span></div>

check if others see your brand in the same way you have been presenting it. If

happened, and get back on-brand as quickly as possible. By being on-brand your
credibility is maintained.</span></span></span></div>
