Governor Otti Of Abia: “The Golden Boy” Of Nigeria

In May 2023, an era of unprecedented transformation commenced in Abia State, an important region in southeastern Nigeria, as Dr. Alex Otti assumed the governorship.

His ascendancy symbolized more than a change in leadership; it heralded a new dawn of transparency, accountability, and economic development that has since begun to reshape Abia’s destiny.

NYLH Crafted On Character, Competence, And Consistency

NYLH Crafted On Character, Competence, And Consistency

The excellence of any institution of learning is based on more than just the process of instilling knowledge into students and getting them ready to thrive in the business world and the labour market. It also goes far more than just going through the process of understanding the various concepts associated with different fields of learning as well as the processes of application. It is rather, a function of the ideals associated with the entire process.

At the New York Learning Hub, emphasis is paid to ensuring that learners do not just pass through the institution picking up academic knowledge …

No Hope For Africans If The Reading Culture Is Not Embraced

According to Lord Bacon, ‘reading maketh a man whole’, If we go by this maxim, then it is safe to conclude that the indisposition of Africans to reading is one of the reasons Africans especially black people are not wholesome, lacking in many areas of human endeavour.

The truth is that there is no single area in life where Africans are not lagging behind. Even in sports and entertainment, where they appear to excel, it is because of the infrastructure and managerial skills the white folks have made available in various parts of the world.

A careful study of this …

NLYH Spring Symposium Empowering African Students To Soar

NLYH Spring Symposium: Empowering African Students To Soar

If there is something common amongst African undergraduate and postgraduate students, it is that they are most times limited by the ideology of their origins and where they come from. Due to a lack of proper exposure, they often fail to maximise their potential. 

A good majority of them have bought into the mindset of mediocrity and settling for the little, which is usually neglected or disposed off as crumbs that must have fallen from the table of greater people who had once dared to dream and had pursued those dreams. In some cases, they just settle for the much …

Nigeria Must Get Her Educational System Right

Nigeria Must Get Her Educational System Right

There are no right words to describe Nigeria’s educational sector, but abysmally and terribly deteriorated might be a good place to start. Rather than asking what is wrong with Nigeria’s educational sector, the question would be, ‘What isn’t?’

Education in Nigeria is riddled with issues like outdated educational curricula, poor funding, lack of infrastructure, nonexistent libraries, poor access to quality education at all levels, and incessant strikes at the tertiary level. Get rid of incompetent teachers and unqualified teachers, and we might be getting somewhere with identifying the problems.

However, the problems of the educational sector in Nigeria are …

NYSC: Another Conduit For Looting Nigeria's Treasury

NYSC: Another Conduit For Looting Nigeria’s Treasury

Welcome to Nigeria where virtually every notable government ministry, agency, or Parastatal has remained a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) for the raping of Nigeria’s resources. Many of these institutions which were created with lofty goals in mind have surrendered themselves to the whims and caprices of the thieving Nigerian political elite class. Rather than serve the purpose for which they were instituted for Nigerians, they have all merely served the purpose of their corrupt masters who think nothing good about the country whose resources they have continually plundered.

The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has over the years effectively …

Apsley And NYLH’s Life-Time Opportunity For Nigerians
