The organization, which emphasizes collaboration and innovation, is setting the stage for African creatives to thrive on a global scale through its innovative programs and unique community-driven model.

Central to Nbari’s mission are its flagship initiatives: the Incubator Program and the Campus Creativity Program.

With a curriculum spanning Brand and Strategy Experience, Product Design, and Brand and Information Design, the program is helping participants develop groundbreaking apps and projects that promise to influence entrepreneurship across Africa. The Campus Creativity Program, launched at Nigeria's Obafemi Awolowo University, offers undergraduates a hands-on opportunity to fast-track their creative journeys. Participants engage in projects that not only build their skills but also prepare them for future career opportunities through robust portfolio development.



"Our mission at Nbari is to unlock Africa's creative potential by empowering innovators, collaborators, and leaders who will shape the future of the global creative industry," says Tunde Ogunkunle, Founder of Nbari. "We provide a supportive platform where creatives can not only learn and grow but also connect with industry leaders and collaborate on groundbreaking projects."

Nbari is also positioning itself as a Creativity-as-a-Service (CaaS) provider, offering financial investment, consultations, and creative research to support both emerging talents and established professionals. This approach is designed to empower individuals and organizations to make meaningful impacts through creative endeavors. At the heart of Nbari's strategy is the creation of a supportive community where creatives can share experiences and collaborate. The Nbari Amphitheatre serves as a key venue for discussions that address the challenges and opportunities within the creative industry, helping to forge stronger connections between education and the broader creative world.

Following a successful launch event in Lagos on August 10th, Nbari is set to take its community-building efforts international, with an upcoming event in Kenya on August 31st. In a move to expand its reach, Nbari is introducing online courses designed to offer immersive, storydriven learning experiences. These courses aim to provide creatives with the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in a fast-evolving industry.

Founded by Tunde Ogunkunle, also known as Ferricool, Nbari draws on his extensive experience across various creative disciplines, from architecture and design to marketing and growth strategy.

Nairaland / General / Asue Ighodalo, Edo Elections And The Media - Duke Of Shomolu by Jamisilatest: 11:09am On Jul 09
Responsible media is a key ingredient for healthy democracy.This statement is a truism that cannot be refuted by any logical mind.

The media plays a very vital role of not only disseminating information but also that of guiding thought processes and providing decison taking inputs as we drive towards the very incisive element in the democratic process of making choices while still helping to maintain a healthy engagement within the process.

We are expected to choose our candidates based on our clinical assesments of his capacity, his programmes amongst other such variables and it is the media that provides the vehicle with which the very important ingredient - information is delivered to the electorate.

So you can imagine my deep worry when certain elements of the media ran with the obviously wrong interpretation of the recent judgement of a Federal High Court on the 378 delegates in the February 22 PDP primary elections in Edo State.

The headlines were bold and daring. They screamed in their vacousness the alleged disqualification of Mr Ighodalo who was and is still the bona fide candidate of the PDP in Edo State.

With the way the media has evolved in the last 20years, standards have really dropped leading to irresponsible reporting driven in some cases by citizen journalism.

Today, everybody with N100 data is reporting, analysing and disseminating News usually with dire consequences as a result of the inpurity that is being pushed out.

But sadly, what was really alarming in this particular case, was the involvement of what I would want to call responsible media outlets in this fraud

A TV station who prides itself as a 16 time award winning station despite their open Channels also joined in this charade.

It led its reporting of the issue with the banal - Asue Ighodalo is disqualified dirge.

This was quite disappointing and disgraceful to say the least cos the CTC of the ruling is there for all to see.

The CTC did not in any way allude to the disqualification of Mr Ighodalo who I must say is the front runner in the campaigns but instead stated very clearly that the delegates were lawfully elected and as such must participate as Ad Hoc ward delegates emphasizing asherence to the PDP constitution and the electoral act of 2022.

How this translates to his disqualification even in my unlettered eye continues to beat my imagination.

This deliberate attempt at falsifying an obviously well researched judgement by certain sections of the media could if not well engaged go a long way to reorder the inevitable flow of support towards Mr Ighodalo's candidacy

But luckily, the campaign has come out with a strongly worded statement which has particularly and forcefully re affirmed his candidacy while also taking its time to put the judgement in its proper context.

Furthermore, in my discussions with top members of the campaign, it was very clear that the leadership of the campaign is not loosing sleep over this but instead has remained very focused in pursuing its assured agenda of winning the elections.

For me as a concerned observer, my prayer remains that the media would remain responsible to its ethics and push very professionally the very strong ethos of balance and accurate reporting as we head towards the very critical parts of this journey.

This prayer I dare say is for both mainstream media outlets and the myriad of citizen driven media outlets nestled very comfortably within the ambits of a very wild and oft ireoressible Social Media enclave.

Thanks

Nairaland / General / ‘n20m And I Open My Legs’: The Battle Of The Podcasts by Jamisilatest: 4:08pm On May 29
‘N20m And I Open My Legs’: The Battle Of The Podcasts – A Perspective By The Duke Of Shomolu On The Muvmnt Studio

It has been a heated session this morning behind the scene of my podcast – Duke Rants on the Muvmnt Studio. On the back of that explosive interview granted by another podcast by a young apparently misguided youth, my back up team had expressed the desire for us to jump on that train to entertain conversations with her ilk or at worst get a guest that will counter.


But Tosh, the hardworking head honcho and visioneer who brought together the Dukes Rants would have none of that. For her, The Muvmnt Studios, the umbrella platform for the Dukes rants and the other podcast which deals with life issues were designed to uphold certain values, tendencies and ethos none of which would align with that train wreck of a conversation.

For those of you who have not seen the interview, let me rehash. She alluded to the fact that money was everything and that ‘as you talk to me, u must have N500k to spend, you must pay for my skin, cos skin care is very expensive’.

In response to another question, she goes – with N20m, i will open my legs for you, at least one time.

She now goes on and on about money being the essence of her puny life, bombing her listeners with a homily on money, money, money as the main driving force of her life.

You must give me a reason to leave my man and that reason is money. If you credit my account with money, that will give me an excuse to leave my man.

She continued.. you must pay for my beauty. Yes, you must, cos beauty is not cheap. If i want to get married today, i will, she shouts in a boast. Can i open my DM, she dares, so you see the number of men begging for my hand in marriage.

Now this interview has gone haywire, it has now become the talk of the town eliciting all sort of reactions up to this morning and up at our podcast back end meeting.

I, for one, do not believe this reality. I think it’s a script written to garner attention and drive traffic. To me, that was a brilliant performance carried with the confidence of a well trained actress.

But tarry awhile, what if for a second she is danm serious. I know there are a lot of women with those kinds of tendencies, and i have met some. Women who believe money can do anything, including opening their legs for jobs, contracts, lifestyle, and everything.

These women abound and are very audacious about their outlook towards life. But for me, today, it throws up a different kind of debate – the debate of the podcasts.

Now, how many of u remember Jerry Springer, the trashy, very popular talkshow that took the world by storm. All sorts of people came out of the woodworks to display all sort of depravity and even beat themselves up on stage and trash talked themselves all to the glee of the producers and audience with their eye on ratings.

Now juxtapose this with the Oprah Winfery show. Oprah was sexy and classy. It was artsy and very influential. Appealed to the clean mainstream audience who were aspirational and literary in approach.

The Oprah Book club pushed a lot of books to the best seller list and didnt rely on sex or any of those gutter tactics to maintain relevance and this is where we are at the Muvmnt Studios with The Dukes Rant.

In designing the podcast, Tosh and i looked at the plethora of podcasts that now litter social media. There are so many to even contemplate, most targeting the same demographic and the sex and scandal driven madness that is the digital market.

We knew we would not want to compete in that space, so we designed something looking more towards Oprah but more edgy. Something more punchy than Oprah with those – where did that come from questions, that shocks the audience but pulls the mischief from the otherwise serious guests.

In choosing the guests , we looked for sophistication, class, and much more importantly, influence and depth. From Pastor Itua thru Timi Dakolo and Tonye Cole and the very influentially brilliant Dele Momodu care has been taken to pull in a very strict but sweet coterie of guests that will push our goal of delivering a very impactful message.

Now see the Ruth Osime interview and juxtapose it with this little girl who is trending as we speak.

Ruth is an iconic figure in media and fashion. At 60, she has garnered enough weight in society, that her engagenents can only be one of the most profound experiences ever.

That interview, sweetly touched on some very critical issues from adult sex towards the evolution of media, style, and relationships to mention a few

Now, we will not fool ourselves to think that such topics as discussed with Ruth, or the ever so brillinat experiences between the last days of immortal MKO, or the beautiful renditions of yoruba folk tales delving into mythical poetry or Ituahs reflection on the day he lost his wife or Timi Dakolo’s almost spiritual odyssey in making those songs and lastly Laide’s mad exposition on the role of DNA in illicit affairs would resonate with the fickle demographics who just want to run with sex, scandal and drugs as fuel for engagement.

So, for us at Muvmnt Studio we are are looking for more sustainable impact, pushing through a more serious demographic and engaging with very engaged guests as we carve out a distinct positioning in an otherwise very mad creative space.


Watch out for my talks with Seun Kuti and Kehinde Bankole.

Thanks

Duke of Shomolu

Together, they're reshaping lottery programs, offering not just prizes but also pathways to a brighter future for countless Nigerians.

At a recent press briefing at Radisson Blu Hotel in Ikeja Lagos, Princess Adesuwa Obaseki emphasized the partnership’s mission as a catalyst for positive change, aiming to empower individuals and foster financial stability despite economic hurdles.

"In a country abundant with talent and potential, economic obstacles often hinder opportunities," remarked Princess Adesua, expressing concern over rising costs of living and the struggle for low to middle-income earners to make ends meet, as rising living costs and limited opportunities. She envisioned the comprehensive lottery platform as a means to address economic challenges by giving individuals control over their financial destinies and a transformative tool, stating, "From the moment you hold the ticket, the world around you transforms into where you want to be tomorrow."

The lottery targets Nigeria’s vast population, offering grand prizes like luxurious homes, cars, vocational/business tools, and new small-trade/business setups. ESV Patrick Ogunjobi, Principal Partner of Patrick Ogunjobi & Co, echoed this sentiment, emphasizing equal opportunities for all Nigerians to pursue their dreams.

Nairaland / General / Seyi Makinde's Dance Of Shame by Jamisilatest: 9:21am On Feb 04
It is very curious that Governor Seyi Makinde referenced the petition signed and dated 3rd of February on a letter that he signed on the 2nd of February. Abeg, who is fooling who?

This whole thing is being orchestrated by the inglorious G5 governors who sabotaged PDP at national who want to again sabotage PDP in Edo state. They have never wished the party well and this is another example. Recall that they recently pledged to deliver Jagaban back to power.
As usual, they will continue to FAIL.

We call on all law-abiding members of our party to turn out enmasse and vote for delegates of their choice today, 4th February 2024. Let's take our destiny into ou. .mr hands and take our party back from a handful of self-seeking people who have shown time and time again that they have no interest in helping ordinary people.

Nairaland / General / Opay Has Never Opened Any Account Without Individual/customer's Consent by Jamisilatest: 7:47am On Oct 06, 2023
Some 48 hours ago, we got information that there were active accounts/wallets on our OPay app, which the owners alleged had been created without their knowledge and/or consent. We had then immediately commenced an investigation to determine the authenticity of these claims as all OPay wallets are adequately registered in line with regulatory requirements.

Based on our investigation, we discovered that these accounts were indeed opened by the owners at different times, but generally between 2019/2020. When contacted by our team, some of the individuals have, however, claimed not to remember whether/when they opened the account. At least four of the complaints received via social media have been checked, and all four of them have been contacted to resolve the concerns raised.

It is imperative to note that some of these accounts have had no balance in them since they were opened. As a law abiding, strictly regulated entity, we have unquivocally inquired of these individuals if they would like to retain the accounts, and we obliged based on their responses.

I would like to say that the OPay wallet can only be opened through the CBN-established registration process which requires the input of an OTP authentication (one-time password) and ID authentication from the user’s phone to proceed. It is also important to note that OPay has never created (nor does it operate) any account on behalf of any individual.

On a final note, we would like to encourage any individual with similar concerns to contact us via any of our official channels, and the issues will be resolved promptly. As a brand, we place utmost priority on our customers' needs and pride ourselves as a regulatory-compliant organization.

Nairaland / General / To Mark Its 5-year Anniversary, Opay Unveils New Logo by Jamisilatest: 1:06pm On Jul 27, 2023

Nairaland / General / Monsurat Temidayo Awodein in Alleged Certificates of Sponsorship (COS) Scam by Jamisilatest: 3:17am On Jul 15, 2023
In a shocking revelation, an illicit scheme involving the issuance of fraudulent healthcare worker Certificates of Sponsorship (CoS) has come to light, with over 40 unsuspecting applicants falling victim to the scam. Monsurat Temidayo Awodein, a student who arrived in the UK last year to pursue a master's degree at the University of Dundee, Scotland, is allegedly at the center of this deceitful operation.

Awodein, who recently applied for a two-year post-study visa, is suspected of collaborating with an illegitimate firm to defraud applicants by providing them with counterfeit CoS documents. These documents were purportedly issued in the name of reputable UK-based domiciliary care providers, such as Amazing Angels Care Limited, located in Dartford.

Investigations reveal that Awodein, in conjunction with the illegal firm, used various channels to recruit unsuspecting applicants. She utilized her WhatsApp contact number, +234 809 944 9596, as well as a UK phone number, 07405484819, to lure victims into the scheme. A forensic examination of her phone is expected to reveal evidence of her involvement, including a list of the fake CoS documents she forwarded to applicants.

The victims, seeking legitimate opportunities in the healthcare sector, were intentionally deceived by Awodein and the fraudulent scheme. It is believed that her pending post-study visa application with the Home Office may have served as a cover for her illegal activities.

Authorities are urging anyone who may have been approached by Awodein or fallen prey to this scam to come forward and provide any pertinent information that could aid in the investigation. The Home Office and law enforcement agencies are actively collaborating to dismantle the operation and bring those responsible to justice.

The UK immigration authorities have also issued a warning to all individuals applying for visas or seeking employment opportunities to exercise caution and ensure the legitimacy of the entities involved. Vigilance and thorough verification processes are essential in protecting oneself from such fraudulent activities.

As the investigation unfolds, the impact of this scam on the victims and the broader healthcare industry will undoubtedly be significant. It serves as a stark reminder of the need for stringent measures to combat fraudulent practices and safeguard the integrity of the UK's immigration system.

•Commences sampling today



The National Agency for Food, Drug Administration and Control, NAFDAC, said it will commence random sampling of Indomie noodles, including the seasoning, from the production facilities.

This is coming on the heels of the recalling of indomie noodles by Taiwan and Malaysian authorities, following the discovery of ethylene oxide, a cancer-causing agent.


Announcing this in a statement, the Director-General of the agency, Prof. Mojisola Adeyeye, who explained that the compound of interest was ethylene oxide said, already, the Director of the Food Lab Services Directorate has been engaged and has started working on the methodology for the analysis.

Adeyeye said: “Indomie noodles have been banned from being imported into the country for many years. It is one of the foods on the government prohibition list. It is not allowed in Nigeria, and therefore not registered by NAFDAC.

“What we are doing is an extra caution to ensure that the product is not smuggled in, and if so, our post-marketing surveillance would detect it. We also want to be sure that the spices used for the Indomie and other noodles in Nigeria are tested.

“That is what NAFDAC Food Safety and Applied Nutrition, FSAN, and Post Marketing Surveillance, PMS, are doing this week at the production facilities and in the market, respectively.”

She, however, promised that Nigerians will be duly updated with the outcomes of the investigation.
According to the World Health Organisation, WHO, ethylene oxide is a colourless, highly reactive and flammable gas widely used as an intermediate in the production of various chemicals.

WHO, in a report, noted that findings from animal investigations, test systems, and epidemiological findings suggested an increase in the incidence of human cancer.

It also added that the report concludes that ethylene oxide should be considered a probable human carcinogen and that its levels in the environment should be kept as low as feasible.

In today’s fast-paced world, convenience is king. People want everything at their fingertips, including healthcare services. That’s where an e-health platform like CloudClinic comes in.

From virtual consultations with doctors to medication reminders, the CloudClinic app offers a wide range of convenient specialist and general practice healthcare services that can be accessed with just a few taps on a smartphone or tablet.

According to the National Primary Healthcare Development Agency (NPHCDA), about six out of ten Nigerians lack access to quality primary healthcare services, a situation that is worsening disease outbreaks and healthcare delivery. CloudClinic bridges the gap by providing a platform that

healthcare through its native language feature which matches patients with doctors based on their preferred native languages, ensuring effective communication. The app offers
