Breakfast Connect

The current landscape has necessitated the adoption of technology across different sectors. The new reality also exposes the different areas of opportunity in terms of the job of the Era of Industrial Revolution.

Olori Boye-Ajayi sat down with Breakfast Connect to talk about seeing an opportunity, taking advantage of it and putting in the work to see it through. Olori, who founded the Katie Wang Company over a decade ago, talks about the difference between knowing how to multiply money and knowing how to run a business. She urged small businesses to put as much effort into service delivery as they do into making or acquiring the physical product.
"I remember going to banks on Kofo Abayomi, (Victoria Island, Lagos). I'll put my truck out there and the (female staff) will come around during their lunch break. I will drive the truck by the way. I didn't have a driver. So, I was really hands-on", she says.
She continues, "There's something about bending your back in the beginning. (Making sales) is not all by skill. Sometimes it's just doing the work and you'll get the reward later."
Olori is also the co-founder of the Ark Coaching Company which began as a need for people who are stuck-in-a-rut in their business. She clarifies, "It's not a mentoring programme, because unlike a mentor, a coach gets the job done." According to her, participants are admitted on a referral basis. The reason is because she says "not everbody can go through the process of unlearning."

Dr. Renner tells Breakfast Connect that the rise is inevitable due to an increase in awareness which has led to an increase in testing and contact tracing. 
He also suggests that the number of confirmed cases may continue to rise because social distancing is not something Nigerians are good at. According to him, "People in Nigeria wear their masks everywhere except on their noses and mouths..and I think that is why these test results are increasing...."

Government of the people, for the people, and by the people. That's the definition of democracy, which is the form of government under which Nigeria and Nigerians have been governed for the past 21 years. Another description says Democracy is the type of political power where the government is considered the servant of the people. 
Dr. Ozoemene describes Nigeria's federal structure as a leech that is sucking the life-blood out of the system of the entire country. According to him, "if states are allowed to make decision on their own, we will begin to see oasis of excellence around the country." 
He continues, "Nigeria's cost of governance is like a Level-17 civil servant who has four wives and twenty-five children and he's spending money like his colleauge who is also a Level-17 but a bachelor. Both men have the same income. The bachelor says he's rich and the man with four wives also says he is rich."
