Excellencies, Ladies and Gentlemen, Greetings!
Mma, MmaNu o! Ndummiri, NduAzu!
This is the kind of occasion that can make a person end his speech at the very beginning. Speechless, they call it!
Without questions, I Stand on behalf of  All Africa Media Networks & Arise Afrika to welcome you all and express  our delight for  honouring our invitation to the Unveiling of Arise Afrika Magazine.
With high sense of gratitude, I thank the Almighty God who has made the publication of this volume a huge success.
We might have come across lots of publications with different objectives: however Arise Afrika Magazine- an international magazine that seeks to increase awareness of bordering issues within our country Nigeria and around the world.
We make a commitment to serve you with timely information on events around the globe. This Magazine features a lot of educative, informative and entertaining articles. This publication seeks to convey valuable information on the life and culture of our people. 

The contents I know will interest you as it ranges from Interviews with Opera David- a young lady with a craze and passion for singing and reaching the world, Ugoeze Shirley Okwudinma as she encourages the youths to Strive to be the best, Hon Engr Chidi Ibeh Commissioner of Commerce and Industry – eulogizing the works of Executive Governor of Imo State and promising to leave lasting legacies .
Arise Afrika center of attention is on News, Politics, Fashion, Health, Events, Advertorials and real life issues.  Business News , Art & Life, Country Focus –  World Struggle for a Just World, Recreating Igbo Ethical and Cultural Values, Save the Country, Gotni Celebrates Nigeria @ 56 host leadership summit in Owerri, Imo @ 40 commemorative Lecture, Community Development Awards and Frontline: Nigerians to stop supporting non performing Office Holders.
 If you ask me, you are up for the best time of information acquisition.
By reading Arise Afrika Magazine you are sure to learn something new , different and make you ahead of others.
To everyone that has assisted us from the beginning making direct and noticeable contributions, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
We are humbled by your kind gestures and cannot help but appreciate it for what it truly means to us.
Most of you seated here with us at Rockview Hotels were not part of this journey when It began some years back but its important to note that  most people whom we began with and impacted with this vision are all over the world making impacts today.  And so will you after getting to have a good understanding of this vision. A vision you don’t understand, you can not actualize.
With utmost consideration of our experience in the past, we gather all of you here in a celebrative mood to share our visions with you so as to get your collaborative support to take our message from Africa to the rest of the world. 
 I must confess that regardless of the accolades we are receiving in our own evaluation of our performances and challenges so far, what you have read and have seen before you today is not the best of us. We are not celebrating success, but rather our struggle and strengthening our courage to forge on. No matter how daunting the task is. We have always stood despite our challenges.  Our challenge is enormous and the very challenge of all Africans.   A close look at the comment of Mr Simple Ugorji revealed the following:
 “When they move from Europe to Africa = Voyages of discovery
When we move from Africa to Europe =Illegal immigrants
A group f Africans in Europe = Refugees.
A group of Europeans in Africa = Tourists
A group of Africans in the bush = Poachers
A group of Europeans in bush = Safari
Black people working in a foreign country = Foreigners
White people working in a foreign country =expatriates
In conclusion he remarked  “ This world has failed  Africa or we have failed ourselves.  ”
We at Arise Afrika believe that we shouldn’t let anyone define and label us.
OUR VISION
Redefining Africa to the world
OUR  MISSION
Raising the beautiful continent of Africa, one information at a time
WHO WE ARE
Arise Afrika   is the media arm of  Global Circle of Friends Network (GCFN) a community based organization founded by Anyanwu Ikechukwu.
GCFN  started from Obowu. I am proud to look back at the Iconic 40th Anniversary of Imo and see the following on the honour list:  Late Sam Mbakwe of blessed memory – as Imo Legend of the year. Prof Chidi Osuagwu – Icon of Intergrity.  Prof BEB Nwoke – Educationist of the year, Hon Dcn Chike Okafor –Proactive Lawmaker of the year (Federal) & Hon (Barr ) Kennedy Ibeh of Obowu constituency IMSHA (total of 5).
Obowoians are great people and has continued to leave indelible marks and trail braziers in their various fields of endeavors. Let us give a round of applause for another nma sin a Imo puta (beauty of Imo from Obowu, okigwe)
With Arise Afrika  we are on a movement geared towards re-engineering the mind set of Africans about sustaining themselves in their immediate communities. We hope to help our youths to discover and develop their talents so as utilize them and make a positive impact in the society.
The online news platform www.ariseafrika.comis used In the promotion of social democratic values of Justice, freedom and democracy. Create a reawakening of our strong and sustainable ethical and cultural values.
The future lies with the youths and they need to be steered away from negative influences.  Our nation needs to arise from the deep slumber that we have fallen into and our youths must take our own destinies in our own hands.  Nigerians must cooperate with each other to build better functioning communities through small scale industrial vocations. We must become advocates for better governance and implementation of policies that affect the society.
Arise Afrika seeks to develop and encourage youths to embrace their full potentials in all spheres of human endeavour and not to feel alienated by the present severe socio-economic conditions. The youths must be challenged to recover lost values through the same cooperative dedication and strength that must pull them out of the fangs of poverty.

I appreciate my mentors for being here today .
Big thanks to my friends and brethren who have supported this vision sacrificially.
We have come to the realization that this project we have been using to reach people on a global level needs to take a journey back home.

A BIG thanks to all our resource persons who has sacrificed their time at no cost to educate, inform and help shape our minds towards the realization of better Imo , Southeastern Nigeria and Africa.  So you can understand why our story centered much on Imo . Ndi igbo si na ana esi na ulo mara nma puo na Ama.
Once again, thanks for honouring this invitation, to witness the unveiling of Arise Afrika.  This is another nma si na imo puta. I must end with this clarion call for us all to awaken our people from the deep slumber that we are falling into. Afrika must rise up to take its place in the pride of place in the world . We have the resources both human and materials. We should not be limited in anyway.
In conclusion, Nigeria should not be decaying and disintegrating when the rest of the world are integrating and globalizing for synergy and mutual welfare. We as a people must, therefore, come together to design a modem African State informed by the African  ancestors left for us as inheritance and benchmark. A just pan-africanist society where \’every blackman can stand proud\’

VISION
In today\’s world, there is a quest among most young Christians to explore their talents and be identified as celebrities; but due to the non availability of a gospel music platform in Africa for self discovery, young Christians have become susceptible to the clarion call of alcoholic, sacrilegious, and lewd sexuality driven reality TV shows which leads to lots of social irresponsibility among young people in Nigeria, and Africa at Large.
It is for these reasons and many more that MFI Xquisite Koncepts Ltd., (a total production outfit specialized in public relations planning and execution, events planning/management) have come up with the Gospel Music Africa (GMA) reality TV competition.
GMA is the first of its kind and the biggest music reality competition in Africa. It is not a denominational spur, but an act towards inspiring and nurturing young, talented gospel singers in the spirit of true praise and worship, as we seek to celebrate Jesus the more.
It is a priestly obligation to herald the time for gospel singers and worshipers to be heard. We believe that through this; \”..The Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations\” of Africa. (Isaiah 61:11b)
For 8 weeks, 30 contestants from across Africa will come together in Nigeria to battle for the crown, (The KING or QUEEN of Gospel music in Africa).
Our Goal
Gospel Music Africa will present a unique contemporary innovation that will give hope, sooth hearts, and uplift God\’s royal banner in these days of uneven stress.
Gospel Music Africa will raise a generation of young people accustomed to godly values; integrity, honesty, self esteem, unity and passion for God.
Gospel Music Africa will encourage young Gospel music singers to stay in Gospel music and not abandon it for the so-called \”greener pastures\” in secular music.
Gospel Music Africa will cloud the music celebrity industry echelon with young gospel musicians that would serve as role models for the younger generation.
Gospel Music Africa would ignite the passion for a closer relationship with God, that will enable young people acquire the needed inspiration for the emancipation of African continent.
This laudable musical novelty will birth-in some level of ethical and social implications for true worshipers in Africa, because this is not just another singing competition, but also a spontaneous move to lead a re-consecration of all minds to God.
The great future calls. Don\’t miss!!!

5 DAYS COUNTDOWN TO UNVEILING OF ARISE AFRIKA: WHY DO YOU EXIST? … IT\’S MORE THAN A MAG.. IT\’S A REVOLUTION

Ikechukwu Anyanwu

Today I was privileged to share with Team Arise Afrika prelude to Unveiling proper which is 5 days from today,.
Lots of questions were thrown up and answered as we countdown to the this great event . The most important one is \”WHY DO YOU EXIST?\” amongst others.
As we count down to the unveiling it\’s important to note that this is more than a just a Mag, it\’s a revolution. Its a movement. It\’s definitely going to be out of this world. We will raise the beautiful continents of Africa one information at a time.
The pride and center of Heartland has never known anything like  this. Do well to witness it fist hand. Epoch making, paradigm shifting and trail blazing event like this is better experienced than told.

Below  was shared with Team Arise Afrika. Join us for a robust intellectual experience at Rockview Hotels on Sat 26th November 2016. Time 12 noon prompt.

WHY DO YOU EXIST

\”It\’s not death that most people are scared of. It is getting to the end of life. Only to discover that you never truly lived. According to a motivational speaker \” There was a study done of 130 elderly people on their sick bed. Facing death, close to their last breath. They were asked to reflect about their life\’s biggest regret. Nearly all of them said, they regretted not the things they did but the things they didn\’t do. The risks they never took. The dreams they didn\’t pursue. I ask you would your last words be \” If only I had…\”
Hey you …\”WAKE UP\” why do you exist. Life is not meant to simply work wait for the weekend and pay rent. I don\’t know much but I know this, everybody in this world has a gift. And I apologize to the black community. But I can no longer pretend. Martin Luther King? That man never had a dream. THAT DREAM HAD HIM. People dont choose dreams. Dreams chose them. So the question am getting to is do you have the courage to grab the dream that picked you. That befits you that grips you r will you let it get away and slip through.


You know I learnt a fact about airplane the other day. Now this was so surprising. I was talking to a pilot and he told me many of his passengers think planes are dangerous to fly in but he said it is more dangerous for plane to stay on the ground. I said, \”What? Like, how does that sound?\’ well he said because on the ground the plane starts to RUST, MALFUNCTION and WEAR out more faster that it ever would if it was in the air. As I walked away, I thought \”yeah makes total sense\” because Planes were built to stay in the skies. And every person was built to live out the dream they have inside. So it is, perhaps the saddest loss to live the life on the ground without ever taking off.
See must of us are afraid of the thief that comes in the night to steal our things. But there is a thief in your mind who is after your dreams his name is doubt. If you see him call the cops and keep him away from the kids. Because he is wanted for murder. For he has killed more dreams than failure ever did. He wears many disguises and like a virus, will leave you blinded, divided and turn you into a \”kinda\”. See Kinda is lethal, You know what a kinda is , there is a lot of kinda people. You kinda want a career change. You kinda want to get straight As. You kinda want to get in shape. It\’s a simple match no numbers to crunch. If you kinda want something.then you will kinda get the results you want. What is your dream? What ignites that spark? You can\’t kinda want that. You gotta want it with every part of your whole heart. Will you struggle? Yeah, yeah. You will struggle. No way around it. You will fall many times but who is counting. Just remember there is no such thing as a smooth mountain. If you want to make it to the top then there are sharp ridges that must be stepped over. There will be times you get stressed and things you get depressed over but let me tell you something. Steven Speilberg was rejected from film school three times. Three times, but he kept going. The television executives fired Oprah Winfred that she wasn\’t fit for TV but she kept going. critics told Beyonce that she couldn\’t sing. She went through depression but she kept going. STRUGGLE & CRITICISM are prerequisites for greatness. That is the law of this universe and no one escapes it. Because pain is life. But you can choose what type. Either the pain on the road to success or the pain of being haunted with regret.
Do you want my advice, don\’t think twice. We have all been give a gift and that is called life so don\’t blow it. You are not defined by your past. Instead, you are born anew in each moment. So own it NOW. Sometimes you got to leap and grow your wings on the way down. You better get the shot off before the clock runs out. Because ain\’t no overtime in life. No do over and I know I sound like I\’m preaching or speaking with force But if you dont use your gift you sell not only yourself but the whole world. So what invention do you have buried in your mind. What idea, what cure, what skill do you have inside to bring out to this universe? Uni = One Verse= Song. You have a part to play in this song. So grasp that microphone and be brave. Sing your heat out on life\’s stage. You can not go back and make a brand new beginning.  But you can start now and make a brand new ending.

Business Sense and Thinking Beyond You

Business Sense and Thinking Beyond You.
It\’s ok to be seek for personal gains and fame of your firm but it\’s of utmost importance that every entrepreneur or would-be entrepreneur  should think about his chosen business or initiative more as a gift to the entire world which he or she has been made a custodian of rather than just an idea for personal aggrandizement.
This is a mindset of big-time business people and inventors.  It\’s far better to start in time to think of how the world can benefit from what you have to offer rather than centering your thoughts on what the world has to offer to benefit from what you have.
When your business sense primarily focuses on adding value before taking value from society,  then you will make decisions that will stand the test of time and test of greed.

Secondly you must have to think beyond your time.  What will become of the firm you are building in the next 20 year,  then the next 50 years,  then the next 100 years.
Is your business just to exist as long as you live or will it continue for generations to come?
Thinking in this perspective will enable you frame your firm around certain core values and objectives that will stand firm in winds and in storms.
For a business or brand to last for decades  or centuries after the founder is gone,  one major value it must be built on us integrity.
Integrity is forged in the fire of truthfulness and consistency.  Truth can be buried, attacked,  libelled, slandered against,  kicked and ridiculed but at the end of all these,  truth will still survive and will become stronger and shine brighter each time.
By consistency,  I don\’t mean remaining stagnant on outdated ways of doing things.  I mean,  if you are known for making the best bread is town,  don\’t ever make good bread.
Another major value a business that will thrive beyond you must have is Satisfaction of all clients (as much as possible).  One fully satisfied client is better than 10 unsatisfied clients… In the long run.
This is very important to take note of especially for young entrepreneurs who might be lucky to get overwhelmed by rush of clients at the beginning of their business.
They might rush the job or deliver goods that are not satisfactorily done all in the bid to attend to all the customers in a short time and seemingly prove your speed.
In as much as speed of completion is complimented,  it is better you take your time to deliver a satisfactory or even excellent service or good than to rush and deliver something the client will frown at.
Recap:
Make sure your business is built to serve the masses first before serving your bank account.  But remember your bank account also.
Map out value system that can ensure your business will last beyond you.  That\’s if you deem it necessary.  You can start with building the business around integrity.

The Jamb registrar regretted that despite the developments, Imo State has only three universities while Ogun and Osun states had 14 and eight,
Oluyede said the state did not have sufficient number of universities to accommodate its multitudes of candidates.
The JAMB chief said the state’s free education programme might be the reason for its unbeatable record in JAMB applications in the last five years.
HE urged Okorocha to encourage the establishment of private universities in the state. Okorocha assured that the state would sustain its free education programme  at all cost. Adding that more resources would be provided for the sector.
