CSR: GOV ENO APPLAUDS AMITEC OVER 10 WATER PROJECTS IN ORUK ANAM, 50,000 EXERCISE BOOKS

…calls on other contractors, companies to emulate same

Akwa Ibom State Governor, Pastor Umo Eno has commended Amitec Construction and Development limited for initiating a corporate Social responsibility project mainly targeted at rural development, youth empowerment and educational advancement.

The Governor made the commendations on Saturday, while inaugurating the 23km Ikot Ekaide- Ikot Okoro- Ikot Ibritam road handled by the construction giants.

“Let me thank the MD of Amitec for taking the lead in sponsoring 5 Trainees to the Dakkada skills acquisition center and donating 10 water projects to communities in Oruk Anam as well as 50,000 copies of branded exercise books to the ministry of education.

“Earlier today, I was at DASAC for the convocation of pioneer Trainees of that institution where I called on contractors to support by sponsoring trainees for the next batch. I am very happy that our brother in Amitec has taken the lead.

“This of the kind of thing we want to see. So, I am calling on other contractors to also sponsor students to the skills training institute. When they finish, you give them starter-packs to start up something on their own” Gov Eno Stressed.

He however, directed the commissioner for education to ensure that 25,000 copies of those exercise books are distributed to schools in Oruk Anam while the other 25,000 can be shared to other schools across the state.

Speaking on the road project, Pastor Eno who was also full of praises to Amitec for quality delivery, expressed satisfaction that a project inherited from his predecessor at 50 percent has been completed. He promised to complete all other economically- viable inherited projects across the state while directing that solar street lights be fixed on the whole stretch of the 23km road.

Speaking earlier, the Managing Director of Amitec, Chief Aiman Saimua who was grateful to Governor Eno for his developmental strides and passion for rural development, said the company’s donation was simply to complement the Government’s visible effort in making life better for the citizens. His speech reads in parts:

“I feel honoured to have been chosen to handle this transformative project which represents a testimony that government in Akwa Ibom State is a continuum.

“The entire stretch of this road traverses 15 villages, out of which 10 of those villages belong to the 12.5km that was handled by Amitec.

“Therefore, to complement the developmental strides of the state government, we will donate 10 water projects for the 10 villages within our section, donate 50,000 copies of branded exercise books to the education ministry and also sponsor initially, 5 persons to DASAC.

As part of my commitment to encouraging a conducive learning environment and quality education of our people, I commissioned and handed over an academic block, which I built, to Maurid College of Nursing Science, Mbiaso, Nsit Ibom local government area, during its maiden matriculation ceremony of 300 students, where I served as chairman on the occasion, yesterday.

I also promised to install solar-powered lightings around the institution's premises to ensure security of the students and property at night.

I used the opportunity to charge the prospective healthcare professionals to focus on their studies, so that upon graduation, they will fill the manpower gap created in the health sector by migration of other professionals for greener pastures.

Part of my address to them reads; "Your journey to becoming healthcare professionals is a call to service and humanity. This is further buttressed in the popular maxim that "health is wealth." This is in line with Harvey S. Firestone's philosophy that "the growth and development of people is the highest calling of leadership."

"This quote has consistently guided my life and activities both in private and public service. It is the propelling force behind my mega empowerment, scholarship, bursary, skill acquisition, facilitation of jobs in strategic Federal Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) and foreign trainings to Akwa Ibom people."

"Also, the newly completed edifice, which shall be commissioned and donated to the institution today, is my modest effort to encourage this massive investment and, most especially, to ensure you get a conducive learning environment."

"These efforts are aimed at raising Akwa Ibom men and women who are stable enough to compete favourably with their counterparts globally."

Worthy of commendation is the Chairman of Maurid Group of Schools, Dr. Godwin Umontuen, for his foresight and investment in education, and for being a true patriot who cares about the development of the state and country.

His massive investment is interwoven with love and patriotism for the country at the centre. It is selfless, with clear intention to train and equip health professionals needed to provide healthcare services for mankind.

Don't miss Sunday School

I sent the kids to get snacks for a game we wanted to play. They got back with this as one of the things they bought.

I was troubled and asked them to go trash the milk/chocolate stuff inside, and told them not to ever buy it ever again! I gave them valid reasons which they understood and even asked I showed other parents.

I may be old school but this feels weird. Crazy shots chocolate/ milk thingy for kids? Of all pack you chose Injection syringe? What are you promoting?

When we say a shot is crazy inside a syringe does it mean well? Can a malaria injection be termed crazy shot? What about c0dine? Isn't that a crazy shot?

Are kids being pushed to get used to taking crazy shots in forms of sweets so they don't feel strange when they see the main crazy shots in future?

Funnily this isn't a Nigeria product from the label! What exactly do this people take us for? Malo?

Does anyone feel same or I am just an over thinking parent

We all grew up

Life has a way of changing how we connect with others. Once, it was as simple as, 'Come to school tomorrow, and I'll tell you everything!' Now, it's become, 'If you have time, maybe we can meet someday and talk.' We all grew up, our lives got busier, and our carefree conversations turned into rare moments of catching up.
Growing up is beautiful, but it also reminds us to cherish the bonds we once
took for granted.

A divorced friend remarried 2 months ago, I heard from her younger sister that her ex husband was very vexed about it. That why wasn't he informed before she remarried...he even threw small drama at the family.

Thank God, she was wise enough to leave his son with her mother, despite her new husband's pleas to bring him, she refused. The ex husband would had used the son to create bigger drama.

Her ex husband swore no one will ever marry her again, he destroyed her name and she had some challenges remarrying, once he knew she's dating, he'll find a way to manipulate the suitors mind, she had lost two suitors because of him. But this one came as a surprise to him, because she kept the relationship hidden even from some family and friends.

What pissed him more was when he learnt she married as a first wife, her present husband was never married,he married her like a New bride not bazawara(divorced woman)and all the things her ex husband denied her, she's enjoying it in her present marriage. Her present husband enrolled her in a school and also established a small business for her. That support she didn't have in her first marriage, she's getting it in her second.

I learnt from her story that
*When it's your time, nothing can stop it. What is meant for you will always be for you.
*To keep a low profile with relationships especially when you have enemies around you, waiting to shame you.
*A failed marriage is never the end, being a single mum won't stop you from finding love again.
*No matter the lies and rumors about you, stay true to yourself, God see's your heart, someone befitting of you will see you for who you truly are.
*If that man won't value you, another man will.
* Not all men are same, some may break you, some will build you. There are good men out there too.

Life is unpredictable.

Best Memory of School Life..
