Communication

WOULD YOU SUE CRISTIANO RONALDO IF…?

Some years ago, I was a facilitator on Coca-Cola’s Youth Empowered programme. It was a programme of the Nigerian Bottling Company (NBC) that ran in several cities for many years. On one of the days, a participant came into the hall with a product of Pepsi. You only need to see how the entire NBC reacted to that. It was like a TABOO had entered the room. I was stunned. That was my first lesson in Branding and Brand Loyalty. WoW!!!

BEFORE YOU HOST YOUR NEXT EVENT…

From 2015, I have hosted 4 grand events so far. My first ever large event was BCP Conference that held at Unilag (University of Lagos) in November 2015. BCP stands for Behavioural Change Practitioners. The intention was to hold forte for professionals who practice any form of behavioural change work; from social workers to counsellors to therapists to psychologists, etc. The event was free. We spent around 3Million Naira to host the event and had a deficit of more than a million Naira afterwards. After that event, several speakers who attended BCP Conference created their own platforms and that broke the momentum I had for the conference. I threw in the towel immediately.

YOU ARE BLOCKED!!!!!!!!!

The face-off between MTN and ALL Nigerian Banks is like the Banks saying “YOU ARE BLOCKED ON WHATSAPP”. 🤣🤣😂😂😂

If you have been following the news, you would have heard that the Banks have blocked MTN from all their USSD and Bank App solutions. YOU CANNOT BUY MTN AIRTIME VIA ANY BANK CHANNEL (for now) because MTN is PROTESTING Bank charges.

SCIENCE COMMUNICATOR.

In 2014, Dr Bala Muhammad, the CEO of BlueBlood Vet (in FCT Abuja Nigeria) had explained a challenge with vet doctors. He said many vet doctors may find it difficult to make money; not because they don’t know their skills but because they lack the tools of communicating animal problems to pet owners in the language pet owners understand. He said most vet doctors understand the challenges of pets but if the owner does not understand what the pet wants, how can the vet doctor get paid? Hmmmmn.
