AFRICA'S YOUNGEST BILLIONAIRE ASHISH THAKKAR SET TO VISIT UYO, NIGERIA IN JUNE FOR THE FIRST EVER NIGER DELTA YOUNG PROFESSIONALS ECONOMIC SUMMIT


What’s really good people?

Hope the father’s were celebrated the right way this past week by their family and loved ones. CONGRATS to two of my family members with their respective MASSIVE feats accomplished both personally and professionally this week. My SUPA Eagles have proven to not be SUPER thus far in the Confederation Cup tournament but it sure would make big statement in world football if Nigeria were to pull the upset and beat Spain on Sunday. I believe do you believe? Anyways I will continue to stay Naija for life. UP Super Eagles & UP Naija!

Ok people; Let me get focused…

Last week I had mentioned that I was going to start highlighting and profiling several personalities, companies and initiatives that have reached out to the MY OMO NAIJA blogspot for increased support in messaging their causes to the rest of the masses. This week the focus and spotlight turns to the Niger Delta Young Professionals who have organized the 1st Niger Delta Professionals Economic Summit/Exhibition. The theme: “Building Sustainable Entrepreneurship in the Niger Delta”. The scheduled event is set to take place June 28, 2013 at the prestigious Le’ Meridian Hotel & Golf Resort, Uyo, Akwa Ibom state from (9am-5pm).

The Niger Delta Young Professionals is a non-governmental organization made up of a group of young enterprising individuals who have achieved great success in their various careers and endeavors and desire to utilize their expertise and experiences in our drive towards sustainable economic and social development in the Niger Delta Region of Nigeria.
This summit has been designed to encourage young people and young professionals from diverse fields of endeavor ranging from Oil and Gas, Information Communication Technology (ICT), Agriculture, Environment  and the Creative Economy in order to create a platform for exchanging ideas and design networks where professionals of the Niger Delta Region will learn by engaging successful entrepreneurs like Ashish J. Thakkar( Africa’s Youngest Billionaire), CEO of Mara Group, Dr. Michael Arumemi-Ikhide, Group CEO ARIK AIR, Dr. Alex Otti, GMD Diamond Bank, Tunde Kehinde, MD and Co - founder JUMIA and other relevant stakeholders as mentors working to increase and optimize economic opportunities for the young people within the region.
The summit is hosted by the Executive Governor of Akwa Ibom State, His Excellency, Sir Godswill Obot Akpabio, while the President and Commander-in-chief of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, His Excellency, President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan (GCFR) is expected to be the Special Guest of Honour.
Prospectively, it is an avenue to share some insights, build capacities, obtain ideas, get well framed views and inputs, present practical options and strategies that would be beneficial in maximizing the investment and development opportunities in the Niger Delta Region.

Na Wa O (NWO)!

Na Wa O! - is slang or a pidgin term used back home in Nigeria and other parts of Africa that simply illustrates something unbelievable, makes you speechless or leaves you flabbergasted.
