  • The Lost Legacy of Ibom e-Library

    Once a symbol of innovation and enlightenment, the Ibom e-Library stood tall as a beacon of knowledge in Akwa Ibom State. Built to serve as a hub of learning for all residents, it was envisioned to foster education, research, and creativity in the community. Equipped with modern facilities, internet connectivity, and countless books and resources, the e-library became a haven for students, researchers, and anyone seeking knowledge.

    However, during the administration of Governor Udom Emmanuel, the vision for the Ibom e-Library began to waver. Slowly but surely, its doors that were once wide open to the public started closing. The bustling halls grew silent as access became increasingly restricted. Instead of nurturing the minds of Akwa Ibomites, the e-library was repurposed as a private training center. Public use was deprioritized, and its vast resources became unavailable to those it was built to serve.

    For years, students stood outside its gates, their aspirations dimmed by locked doors. Researchers who once thrived within its walls were forced to seek knowledge elsewhere. The heart of the e-library—a public treasure—was transformed into a corporate enclave, catering only to specific training programs and organizations.

    Today, the Ibom e-Library serves as a painful reminder of what could have been. Its original purpose, to educate and empower the people of Akwa Ibom, has been overshadowed by exclusivity and neglect. The promise of enlightenment has given way to disappointment, leaving the community yearning for the library’s restoration to its rightful place as a sanctuary for all.

  • The Commissioners List: What Akwa Ibom People Want to See

    The air in Akwa Ibom is thick with anticipation, as citizens eagerly await the unveiling of the long-expected list of new commissioners. The wait has been akin to a suspense thriller, where the plot thickens with every passing day. People have been asking, "When will the Governor unveil the list?" Rumour mills have churned out predictions, and many had their hopes pinned on Wednesday, January 23, 2025, during the State House of Assembly’s plenary. Yet, when Rt. Hon. Udeme Otong, Speaker of the House, inquired if there was a message from the Governor, the Clerk’s response was a simple, almost deflating, “No.” And so, the Assembly adjourned to February 4th. The suspense continues.

    As the days drag on, it’s easy for even the most patient Akwa Ibomite to feel the pinch of waiting. But if the list that finally lands is a masterpiece, surely it will be worth every second of the delay. The people of Akwa Ibom have high hopes, and what they truly desire is a well-balanced and forward-thinking Executive Council. Here’s a look at what Akwa Ibom people expect when the much-anticipated list finally arrives:

    1. A Blend of Politicians and Core Professionals

    The ideal list would feature a diverse team—a marriage of seasoned politicians with the expertise of professionals from strategic fields. Think of a Commissioner of Information who has worked in the world of journalism, someone with a keen understanding of media relations and the power of storytelling. A finance expert in the Ministry of Finance, whose knowledge and practical experience could balance the books without breaking a sweat. A Sports Commissioner who has both the administrative know-how and the passion to raise the state’s sporting profile. Of course, these professionals must also possess strong political acumen, as the corridors of power demand both expertise and influence.

    2. Youthful Introductions to the Executive Council
    While it’s easy to fall into the trap of recycling old names, Akwa Ibom needs a fresh wave of youth to step into the leadership roles. The leaders of tomorrow can only rise if given a seat at the table today. The youth are the lifeblood of any state, and offering them opportunities to serve is a step towards long-term growth and development. These young minds bring energy, creativity, and a sense of urgency to the table—qualities that the state needs in abundance.

    3. Commissioners Who Can Drive the ARISE Agenda
    Governor Umo Eno’s ARISE agenda is a vision of growth, transformation, and hope. But no agenda can succeed without the right people to execute it. Akwa Ibom’s citizens expect commissioners who don’t just sit in their offices and await directives but actively push the ARISE agenda forward in their respective ministries. Creativity, innovation, and a hands-on approach to leadership are the order of the day. We need action-oriented commissioners who are as dynamic as the vision itself.

    4. Commissioners with Grassroots Connections
    What good is a commissioner who speaks beautifully on television but has no genuine rapport with the people on the ground? Akwa Ibomites want commissioners who are close to the grassroots—leaders who engage with the people, understand their struggles, and address their needs. It's not about grand speeches but about real connections, about rolling up sleeves and getting involved in the day-to-day lives of citizens. It’s about empathy, understanding, and action on the ground.

    5. A Strong, Transparent Leadership Team
    In this day and age, transparency isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a necessity. Akwa Ibom’s citizens want commissioners who aren’t just good at their jobs but are also open, honest, and accountable. The era of secrecy and political games is fading, and people demand leaders who can build trust through transparency and integrity. After all, governance is a public trust, not a private affair.

    6. Technologically Savvy Leaders
    In an age where technology is at the heart of progress, Akwa Ibom people hope for commissioners who understand the power of digital transformation. Whether it’s improving public service delivery, boosting education, or facilitating e-governance, the state’s leaders must be forward-thinking when it comes to technology. The right blend of traditional leadership skills and modern digital tools could pave the way for a truly progressive Akwa Ibom.

    In conclusion, the people of Akwa Ibom are waiting with bated breath, not just for a list of names, but for a team that will transform their state. It’s clear that they are asking for the best hands, people with the vision and skills to propel the state into a new era of prosperity. And while the waiting game continues, one thing is certain: Governor Umo Eno knows what the people want. So, let’s allow the Governor to continue cooking up the best possible team—after all, a perfectly cooked dish takes time, and good things come to those who wait. We trust His Excellency will deliver when the time is right.

  • WISDOM FROM RICH DAD.

    From the book Rich DAD Poor DAD, by Robert Kiyosaki

    1. Don’t work for money:

    Rich don’t work for money. If you work for money, your mind will start thinking like an employee. If you start thinking differently like a rich man, you will see things differently. Rich works on their asset column, every dollar in their asset column is their hard-working employee.

    2. Don’t be controlled by emotions:

    Some people’s lives are always controlled by the two emotions of fear and greed. Fear keeps people in this trap of working hard, earning money, working hard, earning money, and hoping that it will reduce their fear. Secondly, most of us have the greed to get rich quickly. Yes, many people become rich overnight, but they have no financial education. So educate yourself and don’t be greedy or fearful.

    3. Acquire assets:

    Don’t buy liabilities on your way to financial freedom. People buy liabilities and think these are assets, but they are not. Many people buy luxuries first, like big cars, heavy bikes, or big houses to live in. But the rich buy assets and their assets buy luxuries. The rich buy houses and rent them, and they pay them for their Lamborghinis. The poor or middle class buy luxuries first, and the rich buy luxuries last.

    4. Remember the KISS principle:

    KISS stands for keeping it simple, and ******. Don’t be too overloaded your mind when you are going to start your way to financial freedom. Things are simple and keep them simple. The simple thing to remember is assets put money in pocket and liabilities take money out of pocket. Always buy assets so they put money into your pocket.

    5. Know the difference between assets and liabilities:

    Assets are anything that puts money in your pocket, like stocks, bonds, real estate, mutual funds, rental properties, etc. Liabilities are anything that pulls money out of your pocket, like your house, your car, debt, etc. People think their home is their biggest asset, but it is not. A house is an asset when it generates money like when you rent a house, it generates money, and when your life in that house becomes a liability.

    6. Don’t be a financial illiterate:

    A person can be highly educated and become successful in their profession, but financially illiterate. Financial education is very important for any individual. Our schools and colleges did not teach us financial education. Many financial problems arise as a result of a lack of financial education. Start learning financial education and I suggest you read the book "Rich Dad, Poor Dad".

    7. Increase your Wealth:

    Wealth is defined as a person's ability to survive for a certain number of days in the future, or how long they could survive if they stopped working today. Consider your wealth and whether you would survive if you stopped working today for a year.

    8. Mind your own business:

    If you have a job, keep your job and start a part-time business and work it. Use the time that you spend on your iPhone, parties, or any other activity, to build your business. Never leave your job until you build your own business. Don’t struggle all of your life for someone else. Start your own business and grow your business.

    9. Train your mind:

    Your biggest asset is your mind. Many individuals watch opportunities with their eyes, but if you train your mind, you can see opportunities with your mind. If you train your mind well, it can create enormous wealth.

    10. Learn technical skills:

    Your financial IQ will be raised by learning these four technical skills:

    Accounting is defined as the ability to read numbers. If you want to build an empire, then this is an essential skill. By learning this skill, you will be able to understand the strength and weaknesses of a business.

    Investing: It is the science of making money.
    Understanding markets: It is the science of supply and demand.

    The Law: A person who has knowledge of the law of tax advantages and corporations can get rich faster than others.

    11. Find opportunities that everyone else missed:

    "Great opportunities are not seen with your eyes. They are seen with your mind. "

    You can see many more opportunities with your mind than many people miss with their eyes. It is not rocket science, you just need to train your mind.

    12. Learn to manage risk:

    Investment is not risky, not knowing the investment is risky. If you want to reduce the risk, then increase your knowledge. This knowledge will not come by going to college, it will come by reading books or sitting with people who know the investment.

    13. Learn management:

    The main management skills are:

    Management of cash flow
    Management of system
    Management of people
    Sales and marketing are the most essential skills. The ability to sell and the ability to communicate with another human being, be it a customer, employee, fiancé, friend, or child, is a basic skill of personal success.

    14. Manage fear:

    “Failure inspires winners. Failure defeats losers.”

    Everyone has a fear of losing money. Learn and grow. I would appreciate seeing your comment.
