  • Why Nigerian Public Affairs Analyst and Consultants Should Consider a Master of Public Administration (MPA)

    A Master of Public Administration (MPA) has proven to be a very valuable asset for professionals in the private and public sectors globally. Although the degree may have some speciality, the application of the viable skills acquired during the course-work for the degree may find application in several arms of local and global industries. Professionals in the private and public sectors can readily benefit from this degree as it opens a pathway of great opportunities in career development, enhancement, and growth in business.
    Business Executives interested in the interplay between business and government entities, delving deeply into the inner workings of products and services that impact communities socially greatly favour a Master of Public Administration as a foot in the doorway for new business requirements.
    They may expect to become a specialist in analysing and developing policies in healthcare, education, human rights, and urban planning. In Master of Public Administration programmes, concentrations like non-profit management and public policy can be found. In fact, MPA degree holders can find work in fields where every public sector work is done.
    For example, the oil/gas, energy, finance can benefit from an MPA’s knowledge of how to navigate through government requirements. And of course, lobbyists often have MPA degrees themselves.

    What does an MPA degree programme cover?
    Compliance analysts, public affairs specialists, NGO’s (non-government organisations like UNICEF, the WHO, and more) and other fields can be valuable sources of jobs for MPA graduates. And of course, the MPA/MPP is a type of semi-terminal professional degree. Much like the MBA for Business and the MFA for the Fine Arts, many colleges and universities may allow you to teach with an MPA, particularly teaching public affairs, public administration or political science.
    Students can typically complete a Master’s degree programme in public administration by studying in a brick and mortar institution. However, with the proliferation of online schooling, busy business people and professionals have an opportunity to take advantage of an online learning opportunity. This gives them the opportunity to work and learn on a self-paced basis.

    Furthermore, MPA students may be permitted to concentrate on one specific type of policy. This could be policies like urban planning, education, human rights, the environment, or healthcare.
    For professionals seeking to study an MPA degree, admission criteria typically require incoming students to hold a Bachelor’s degree. This should also be from an accredited institution. In addition, a presentation of other eligibility requirements, like personal statements, recommendations, CVs and others, is required.
    The programme coursework involves the exploration of the laws and regulations affecting the issues in political leadership and government relations. Also, it includes subjects such as financing of public programmes, among others. Students who have studied for a Master of Public Administration (MPA) will develop organisational, decision making, and rhetoric skills.

    What are the career opportunities for an MPA graduate?
    MPA graduates can seek career opportunities with non-profit organisations, as well as with the government at all levels. The programme will prepare them to become sound policymakers and leaders. During their programme, they will be vested with research responsibilities on the effects of policy on governments and organisations. This includes exploration and development of theories, procurement of opportunities. In addition to possibly working jointly with university scholars and academia, or be contracted as government consultants. Their research work and findings can be useful in shaping government policies, among others.
    Another important thing is to not just think about government jobs but to also consider wide ranges in the private sector. This could be jobs like “public affairs, compliance, regulation, government relations” that acquiring an MPA provides.
    Master of Public Administration (MPA) holder may be contracted to teach political science at the university level. Such MPA holder may also use the same qualification to advance as a policy analyst in the legislative arena. The opportunity for consultants and educators is almost limitless.

    Your stepping stone to the corporate world

    Job opportunities abound in international relations, non-profit management, public finance, consulting, HR, arts management, or policy analysis. Both job titles and salaries vary with the degree and can prove to be very well worth it.

    If you’re looking for certifications to advance your career in almost any sector, an MPA provides a springboard for professional progress for you.

    Some of my close relatives with a background in “private sector” roles in finance investment banking, who have found a great use for an MPA, testified of its importance in helping them advance in their career. Therefore, coming from a purely private sector background is definitely not a mark against you. Also, if you have your background in military, education, healthcare, and even public office, an MPA helps position you as a key player in the decisions that shape how the world should look like.

  • HUAWEI Y9 prime 2019: Everything you need to know

    You want to try something new? HUAWEI Y9 Prime 2019 is the answer. This phone can take your selfies with a cool auto pop-up selfie camera and offers you a truly all-screen display with no notch or hole. It has an immersive and massive screen for a panoramic viewing experience, be it watching videos, or simply scrolling through the web or chatting with friends. This phone will take your overall experience with a smartphone to the next level and will be available from July 22nd at retailers nationwide.

    A phone that is all screen

    The HUAWEI Y9 Prime 2019 is a big phone. Not only does it have a HUAWEI Ultra Fullview display that is 6.59 inches, but it is also free of notches, holes or sliders. The FHD+ screen has a resolution of 2,340 x 1,080 and 1500:1 contrast ratio. The display has an aspect ratio of 19.5:9 and exhibits photos in authentic colors and even shows intricate and unseen details. It is perfect for watching your TV series or watching movies and immerse yourself in video games. HUAWEI Y9 Prime 2019 is also safe to use; it is certified by TUV Rheinland for low blue light. The screen filters harmful blue light emissions, and intelligently adjusts the color temperature and brightness, to protect your eyes against strain.

    HUAWEI Y9 Prime 2019 back cover is divided into thirds. The upper third houses the camera and fingerprint scanner. The bottom two-thirds are minimalistic, with a darker hued backdrop. The back cover is also composed of 3D composite material that glimmers like glass, but unlike glass, is durable and shatter-resistant, providing both practical and aesthetic value.

    A cool auto pop-up selfie camera

    With a large bezel-less display, Huawei had to find a way to add a front-facing camera. The result? A 16-megapixel camera with F2.2 aperture that raises out of the phone’s top edge when needed and then closes after you’ve finished snapping selfies. Huawei also designed an intelligent fall protection detector to retract the camera when it detects any free falls.

    The front camera can also identify instantly and accurately eight scenarios of different objects and scenes thanks to artificial intelligence. The latter also implements diverse photographic effects, such as butterfly lighting, by reconstructing the light source to provide 3D portrait lighting for selfies and portraits.

    Three cameras in the back

    On the rear of the phone is a vertical line of three different lenses: 16MP+8MP+2MP. These lenses provide pictures that are clear with top quality and high contrast. The 16MP lens lets more light into the sensor to capture vivid and full-of-colors night pictures in low-light places.

    Thanks to artificial intelligence stabilization, you even get a support of 6 seconds at nighttime for handheld long exposure shots. And for lovers of slow motion videos, HUAWEI Y9 Prime 2019 records videos at 480 frames per second and plays them back at 1/16th of the normal speed.

    Premium power

    Huawei added a massive 4,000mAh battery to HUAWEI Y9 Prime 2019. At the core of this device, is Kirin 710F chipset, and the operating system is EMUI 9. In addition, this phone comes with 4GB RAM and 128GB ROM good enough storage for all your pictures, videos and files.

    Unleash the joy of gaming*

    In order to provide a more enhanced gaming experience, the HUAWEI Y9 Prime 2019 utilizes artificial intelligence to identify gaming scenarios and match them with real-life sensations.

    However, a display like this can result in extensive usage. Huawei has taken care of this as well, thanks to the TÜV Rheinland’s certified Low Blue Light Eye Protection. The screen filters out harmful blue light emissions and intelligently adjusts color temperature and brightness to protect against eye strain. Additionally, when in low light situations, the screen brightness can also be brought down to 2 nits for a more comfortable viewing experience.

     

    Distinctive Design

     

    The HUAWEI Y9 Prime 2019 boasts a design style that is divided in thirds. The upper third houses the Triple camera and fingerprint sensor, while the bottom two-thirds has a minimalistic look with a darker hue.

    Even with its massive 6.59 inch bezel-less display, the HUAWEI Y9 Prime 2019 is still comfortable to hold and is complemented by the overall 3D Arc Design that shines like glass, while still being durable and shatter-resistant, making it both visually appealing and functional.

     

    Auto Pop-up Selfie Camera

     

    While most phones use the bezels and notches to house the front camera and various other sensors, the HUAWEI Y9 Prime 2019 uses clever and innovative design to hide these sensors, but the front camera position is a sign of Huawei’s innovative technologies. Seemingly invisible, the front camera is tucked away and will only appear when needed. Once the camera is turned on and selfie mode is selected, the front camera will pop-up automatically out of the top of the phone. Additionally, it also includes an intelligent protective feature that detects free falls and automatically retracts the lens as much as possible.

Both the 16MP primary and 8MP secondary sensors feature a 6P (six-lens plastic array) design that reproduces minute details within an image and captures more photons. As a result, the phone empowers users to recreate scenes in their full complexity, with enhanced image clarity, contrast, and overall quality.

    The 16MP primary camera’s F/1.8 aperture is a top performer, receiving 50% more light than the F/2.2 aperture that is more commonly seen on the market, as well as focusing more quickly and controlling noise more effectively. The 8MP sensor offers a 120° field of view that fits more within the frame and increases visual tension, creating a three-dimensional effect that is even more mesmerizing due to the bezel-less display. The 2MP sensor assists the primary camera in generating a lifelike depth of field in the photo, enabling SLR-quality images on a palm-sized handset. The powerful cameras also house a stunning Night Mode with AI Stabilization for low light photos and videos. The AI Stabilization also helps in shooting Super Slow-Motion videos at a stunning 480fps.

     

    Powerful Performance

    Under the hood, the HUAWEI Y9 Prime 2019 houses an Ultra Large 4000 mAh battery for extended periods of intensive use. The HUAWEI Y9 Prime 2019 uses a Type-C port, which is smaller, faster and reversible. Additionally, you can still find the 3.5mm headphone jack as well.

    Powered by the Kirin 710F chipset, the phone promises super smooth performance. The chipset is 30% more efficient than its predecessor and manages phone heating during complex resource allocation, saving battery life. The HUAWEI Y9 Prime 2019 runs Android 9.0 with the EMUI 9.0, which learns and analyzes user behavior which enables a more optimized user experience and has a 12.9% higher performance.

  • Busola Dakolo Vs COZA Pastor: 5 Reasons Why Busola Didn’t Speak Up Earlier

    Sexual assault has dependably been an issue, as of late, the conduits have created an avenue for more ladies to recount to their ordeals. This got to show you that every teenager has a story to tell.

    (ATTACHED BELOW ARE SCREENSHOTS OF DIFFERENT STORIES OF OTHERS WHO SHARED THEIR CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES INCLUDING ADESUA)
    This group of people(young ones) are really defenceless at that age which makes them more vulnerable to their predators.

    On certain occasions, these supposed r*pe incidences happened years and even decades ago, just like the viral stories of Mrs Busola Dakolo versus Abiodun Fatoyinbo – the COSA Pastor accused of assault by the former.The incident brought up a lot of reactions from different people. Some people where busy asking “why she didn’t speak up earlier”, “why now after almost two decades?

    I would love to say this, ” just because an unfortunate victim doesn’t voice out immediately about an assault doesn’t mean the allegations are false”, the way she expressed herself might seem untrue but the fact is that there is a r*pe case here, so it will be better to be aware of such incidence to avoid future occurrence than to make some excuses.

    Without a doubt, there are numerous reasons why victims of r*pe may dither to stand up following such occurrence:

    1. Society will, in general, accuse the unfortunate victim predominantly the female folks, for what befalls them.
    Some will say that it’s the ladies who throw themselves on the man especially if he’s a good looking man.  The others will even give excuses that the Guy is human and can be tempted backing it up with an opinion that “body no be wood”, without considering the fact that consent is really important in such act. In some recent cases of r*pe the unfortunate victim was accused of trying to bring down the man. This is very insensitive due to the fact that the action itself has already caused a damage to the victim, why not consider the pain and the agony he/she is passing through as a result of the assault.2 There’s an obsolete social conviction that decent ladies don’t get assaulted. Such convictions can make the victim to believe that the r*pe may have been their own fault. Individuals ask unfortunate victims questions for example, “Why were you in that place at that time?,” ” why did you wear seductive dress at the time” and “Why did you go to that person’s room?”  Such inquiries can move the fault to the victim instead of the culprit however such hypothesis can’t stand in the assault case  between Busola Dakolo Vs COZA Pastor – Abiodun Fatoyinbo as the unfortunate victim affirmed that the Pastor strolled into their family house when her parents were absent and assaulted her.3 Due to the way people will react, speaking up about a r*pe incident can be agonizing and can cause the victim humiliation, shame and segregation in the society. Sometimes the society view this victims as if they are some sort of evil spirit and will always use the r*pe incident to describe the person anytime any day.4 It’s especially troublesome if a victim is accusing a powerful individual in the public arena or somebody who has control over them. They hardly speak up due to the fear of being attacked or killed by this powerful people and so for some reasons, the victims may feel that it could be simpler to attempt to proceed onward from the assault without speaking up with the hope of healing on their own but in most cases you find out that it becomes very difficult for them to heal totally unless they open up, reasons why some cases are been reported after several years. The psychological effects of r*pe is very difficult to handle alone.

    5. Last but not the least, most of these r*pe victims usually get victimized by somebody they know very well, which can make it harder for them to speak up. This is the reason every parent should be involved in the growth of their children, don’t be to busy not to teach them about sex education, how to be bold enough to express themselves and strong enough to fight for their lives, ensuring them of their safety in your hands. Watch out for those pervert uncles, cousin, relations, close family friends, neighbours, mates, lesson teachers etc, nah them. The predators are also within.

  • Encourage One Another And Pray For Pst Adeboye, Kumuyi, Ohanebo, Oyedepo, Olukoya, And Others, Pst Muoka Urges….

    The Sunday live message (9/6/2019) of The Lord’s Chosen Charismatic Revival Movement held at the church’s corporate headquarters at Ijesha, delivered by the General Overseer of the ministry Pastor Lazarus Muoka, can best be described as heavenly.

    This is in view of the fact that the message has reactivated the faith of believers in Christ with regard to honouring the Lord’s commandment to love one another and eschew hatred.

    In the sermon, Pastor Lazarus Muoka urged believers in Christ to pray for servants of God all over the world, whom he dubbed, “Generals in the Lord’s army.”

    This tag of God’s generals is obviously in recognition of their contributions towards the growth of the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ at different times all over the world. He noted that these men of God have labored all through their entire lives to ensure the growth of the gospel and as such deserve our prayers.

    He specifically requested believers to pray for servants of God like Enoch Adeboye, W. F. Kumuyi, Ohanebo, David Oyedepo, D. K. Olukoya among many others.

    He drew his message from the book of 2 Timothy 3:1-6 as he preached on the topic, “The Time is fulfilled,” through which he drew attention to the heavenly time table. Through the message, he admonished believers in Christ to engage in massive evangelism to herald the second coming of Christ instead of engaging in trivialities such as in-fighting in the house of God and use of words capable of destroying one another.

    He cited such instances as general overseers fighting among themselves and workers and leaders doing the same thing. He advised believers to shun greed, avarice and vain glory, pride, boasting, arrogance, love of money and so on. He admonished them to obey the Master’s injunction bearing in mind that the time is already fulfilled.

    In the message, Pastor Lazarus Muoka emphasized on the need to preach the truth since that is the only chance of every converted and professed believer to make heaven at the end of this life.

    He assured that believers who call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved as long as they are genuinely repented. (Romans 10:13) In his exact words, he said, “As believers in Christ, we must preach the word of God not minding the season at hand.” (Romans 5:17)

    Pastor Lazarus Muoka who is the founder and general overseer of The Lord’s Chosen whose unwavering message of righteousness has culminated into rapid growth for the ministry, urged all pastors to always preach Jesus Christ and pointing on the cross where the Messiah died for our sins and resurrected for the atonement of our sins.

    He divided his message into two sub-headings which he discussed as follows:
    1. Evidence and warning there is no more time
    2. Believers’ end-time responsibility and the dangers of neglect.

    Referring to available evidences, he cited the examples of nations rising against nations, churches against churches, preachers against preachers, workers against workers, and so on, according to Biblical prophecies. These unarguably, are happening right before our very eyes. Furthermore, the world is going through unprecedented economic recession coupled with the emergence of dangerous sicknesses and diseases such as Ebola, HIV/Aids, and Cancer in addition to pestilences and natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, cyclones, volcanoes, etc.

    Pastor Muoka proffered the reason that all these calamities are happening because the time is fulfilled and the signs are everywhere as prophesied in the word of God. Under these prevailing circumstances, he counseled on the need to love one another, pray for one another and generally encourage one another in line with the teachings of Christ. He said, “We should be encouragement to all the general overseers noting that no general overseer is better than those of other ministries. He therefore warned believers in Christ to refrain from speaking against pastors, brethren, workers, leaders and even members of the congregation.

    The crux of Pastor Muoka’s message is that now is a dangerous time for believers and whoever wants to make heaven at last apart from living holy and righteous, must, as a matter of fact, pray and encourage one another.

    Today, iniquities abound, unrighteousness abounds, compromisers of the gospel abound, and men have become lovers of themselves and of a particular church instead of lovers of God.

    He laid emphasis on the bible scripture which says that many shall be hated for God’s name, while terrible persecution shall befall many because of God and then shall the end come.

    He urged Christians to go to every nook and cranny preaching the gospel no matter the persecution because very shortly, the trumpet will sound since the rapture of the saints is at hand. (Mark 1:15) He cited that only those who are washed in the blood of the Lamb shall ascend into heaven with the Lord, while others will try to plead for mercy. But then, salvation and mercy will be far from them. (Matthew 24:7-8).

  • Managerial Psychology and Its Benefit for HR Professionals in Nigeria

    Managerial psychology is a sub-division of organisational psychology which deals mainly on the effectiveness of persons, groups and organisations. For human resource professionals who desire some specialisation in their profession, an MSc Managerial Psychology is a degree worth considering. In addition, not only that the discipline helps in ensuring that the leadership of workplaces are able to have a better knowledge on the behaviour in the work environment, it also helps to install and nurture a desired thought-flow and behavioural pattern within a workplace.

    For HR professionals seeking specialisation in the area of industrial relations and personnel management, managerial psychology is gradually becoming the most sought-after area of specialisation. This includes non-HR professionals with an interest in understanding the thought flow of individuals within a work environment and the general organisational culture.

    Nigeria has one of the world’s highest number of certified HR professionals. This is according to a report published on Guardian News. A large number of HR professionals in the country make the profession highly competitive. HR professionals who intend to distinguish themselves should consider more specialised areas. And for many, managerial psychology is becoming a more preferred choice.

    Those who have taken the course on managerial psychology will be able to better assist in the development of a lifestyle within organisations. Most especially, they will play significant roles in screening and selection processes, including the orientation process. Their roles will help to determine how staff within the workplace is able to adapt to the organisational culture.

     

    How does managerial psychology influence people?

    The psychological pattern in every workplace heavily depends on organisational behaviour and culture. Effective HR managers with good managerial psychological skills can help determine a particular pattern of behaviour in the workplace. Therefore, such HR managers can help in ensuring that general harmful behaviour in workplace is detected and prevented from escalating. The HR managerial psychologist joins the organisation’s leadership in building a culture for the organisation. Certainly, this will eventually be passed down to the staff within the organisation.

    A managerial psychologist could also decide to concentrate on personnel psychology or organisational psychology, or equally on both. Those who have focused on personnel psychology will be more concerned in understanding the ideologies and behavioural pattern of staff within a workplace. While those concentrating on organisational psychology will focus on building organisational culture, ideologies and other thought flows. This will eventually be transferred to the personnel within the workplace. The HR managerial psychologist ensures to protect the interest of the organisation and the staff. For instance, the reaction of personnel on a particular organisational policy could lead to the organisation adjusting its policies. The HR managerial psychologist sometimes acts as a negotiator for the personnel and the organisation.

    Human resources management is unarguably the responsibility of all those managing people within the workplace. Furthermore, its responsibility extends to planning for human resource needs, planning for recruitment and selection, welfare, safety, training and development. Similarly, the fundamentals of HRM also extend to collective bargaining – negotiating for employers and employees. The connection between human resource management and managerial psychology is the key factor in HRM theory and practice.

     

    How does this translate into a career?

    In the process of personnel management, recruitment and selection are part of the core activities of HR managers. To which interpersonal relations are part of the elements involved in the process. Therefore, HR managers who have studied managerial psychology will be able to ensure better interpersonal relationships in the workplace.

    There are various local and international institution offering programmes on managerial psychology.

  • HOW I TREATED/CURED DIABETES OF 15 YEARS

    I suffered from diabetes for over 15 years, I even travelled to India twice for surgery and was basically living my life on insulin. I had high sugar level complication which resulted in sores in one of my toes that refused to heal for over 3 years. Life was miserable for me having to stay away from virtually all the good foods I like.

    One fateful day an old friend of mine called me from the United Kingdom to inform me about a diabetes drug he came across online. I was skeptical at first due to the popular belief that diabetes can only be managed but not treated. However, after much persuasion coupled with unbearable pains, I summoned the courage to call the number I was given.

    A man named Mr Sam picked the call and inquired about my health history which I explained to him and he told me categorically that I would need 4 months therapy to properly treat and cure my diabetes. I didn’t believe him at all but out of curiosity and due to excruciating pain I was going through I bought a bottle, and to my greatest surprise after weeks of taking the drug, my sore started healing up, which convinced me to complete the dosage. Within months I realized I could go without using insulin and my sore healed up. To my greatest surprise, after months of undergoing treatment with Ekwensi herbal therapy, I visited my family doctor and he was surprised when he observed my progress.

    After 4 months of completing the dosages, I am free from diabetes and no longer suffering from the pains of diabetes. My sugar level has been stabilized, no more frequent urination at night and I feel renewed. I can eat whatever I want without restriction and I have become an ambassador of Ekwensi herbal drug. I now encourage anybody suffering from diabetes to try Ekwensi as I did. Regards,

  • Olymp Trade: How to make Forex and options work for you

    The Forex market, trading currencies against one another is the largest market in the world. There are Trillions of dollars moving throughout this market on a daily basis. Options trading is a method of trading based on forecasting the price of a stock, commodity, index, or Forex pair and is one of the simplest forms of trading available to today.

    In today’s economic climate having one steady source of income is good, but two is better. Forex and Options trading are great ways to create a second source of personal revenue. Olymp Trade is an award-winning Financial Commission member operating since 2014, which allows you to take advantage of both markets, but also teaches you how to make your money work for you.

     

    How do I start trading? 

    First, you must register with Olymp Trade. To open your account, provide your name, a phone number and email address. Once registration is complete, a trading account and demo account with $10,000 Demo dollars are opened automatically.

     

    After the accounts have been established take time to understand the markets. Olymp Trade has a large educational suite to help new investors become acclimated to the markets, tools, and strategies that make a successful trader.

    Options are predictions a trader makes about whether the price of an asset will rise or fall after a period of time. Forex is the practice of trading pairs to either profit from the price increase or decrease. With 72 assets (currency pairs, stocks, indices, commodities, and cryptocurrencies) to trade, understanding the markets and how to best operate within them is essential.

    How to make a deposit

    There are approximately 20 ways to fill up your account: from credit and debit cards to e-wallets and cryptocurrencies. Deposits are made instantly and easily through the method most convenient for you.

    Traders can make a minimum deposit and withdrawal of $10 through the same payment methods. Withdrawals are sent to the same account a trader deposits, 90% are instant, though they can take 1-4 days depending upon the type of account.

    Risk-Free Trading: Demo Account

    Learning to invest and trade can be daunting. The fear of losing your own money is enough to stop many traders before they begin. The best way to practice is by using your free demo account.

    While using your demo account trades can be executed the same way you would with real money. Up to date quotes, accurate calculation of the trade results, and the ability to trade different assets make this trading experience realistic.

    Traders can replenish their Demo Dollars, making it possible to practice different trading strategies to find the one that best suits them.

    There is no set amount of time before a new trader is ready. It is commonly recommended that new traders spend three weeks practicing with their strategy before beginning to trade with real money.

    The Olymp Trade platform was built for traders to flow seamlessly from one type of trading to another. Transitioning from making demo Options trades to the live Forex market is a two click process. Made to be intuitive the platform is easy to navigate. The account’s mode can be switched from the drop-down menu where your account balance is displayed at the top of the window on the right next to the “Make a deposit” button.
