ECLIPSE LIVE INTRODUCES YOUTH EMPLOYMENT INITIATIVE, THE DREAMS PROJECT

Eclipse Live has announced that ‘The Dreams Project’, its youth driven employment initiative will take effect from today. The project, which was borne out of the passion to empower the youth of Nigeria, with the primary aim of connecting them through the universal language of music.

The project will open up career opportunities within the entertainment industry, placing a strong focus on ancillary roles as apposed to just artistry.

The Dreams Project activity kicked off last month with a school visit to The Apostolic Grammar School where the team spoke to future ‘Dreamers’ about the importance of education.
‘Education is a powerful tool in terms of youth empowerment. The ability to articulate and voice out your opinion goes a long way in being heard’ said Chin Okeke, Eclipse Live founder.

The Dreams Project will commence with an open application process, which aims to attract top quality job seekers with a hunger and passion to succeed in the entertainment industry. Prospective candidates will be able to register online, after which a total of 150 candidates will be shortlisted to attend The Dreams work shop.

The Dreams workshop is a one day seminar which provides attendees with the rare opportunity to gain insight and knowledge from renowned industry professionals who will be at hand to provide top tips and pointers on how to succeed in the industry. Break-out sessions will encourage participation in multiple sessions for candidates who are interested in more than one sector.

Based on performance and career interest, candidates who are interested in gaining industry experience will be given the opportunity to transition unto the volunteer scheme with the much anticipated Gidi Culture Festival; where a team of young and fun creatives will be at hand to serve as mentors.

The Dreams Project promises to be a truly rewarding experience. Following a successful volunteer placement, top performers will be recommended for a three month internship with one of our institutional partners in the entertainment sector with the potential of a permanent role.

So if you have always dreamt of working in the entertainment industry, this is just the opportunity to get involved. The opportunity to kickstart your career starts with a click, so visit www.dreamproject.org to take the step towards a flourishing career!

LYRICS

You will never need another lover
Woo! Cause you a milf and I’m a motherfucker
Told you give the drummer some, now the drummer cummin’
I’m pa rum pa pum pumin’ all on your stomach
Yeah, tonight I see some super freaky hoes
That could go from bein’ strippers to a super C.E.O
I don’t know the way you do it, but you do it to me though
And you always told your girlfriends you need you a TV show
Now you got your own money, you don’t need nobody else
But far as hell with all that ass, I think you gon’ need some help
Let me remind you, you got a, you got a great future behind you
You gotta tell me what we tryna do
I ain’t no pastor, don’t do missionary
I know good (OH!) when I see it, I’m a visionary
I know them haters talkin’ always had us very weary
Yup! On the 35th of Neverwary
Yup! You love the way I’m turnt
After all the money you earned, still show daddy what you learned
That cowgirl, you reverse that cowgirl
You reverse, you reverse, and I pregnated your mouth, girl, ooooh
That’s when I knew you could be my spouse, girl
Fuckin’ all over the house, girl, we just messed up a brand new couch, girl
You ain’t on site then you on Skype
I put you on that bike, you bound, girl
We too wild, won’t turn down
We drunk in love, fuck that.

NIGERIAN BREWERIES REVEALS NEW STAR LITE

Nigerian Breweries has scored another first with the introduction, of a new beer brand named STAR LITE.

Marketing Director Walter Drenth said “STAR LITE is a product of a very innovative and unique brewing technique, brewed with 100% natural ingredients; the finest Malted Barley, high quality Hops, and the best quality water. The new offering is a clean, crisp and Ice Cold refreshing lager beer. Star LITE is Extra Cold Brewed and Ice Cold Filtered”.

STAR LITE debuts with Nigeria’s first beer temperature indicator, which changes colour when the beer is at the best cold temperature for drinking.

It’s a smart beer, which advises consumers, through the temperature sensitive Ice Cold icon, when it’s best to drink STAR LITE.

‘When the icon turns blue, the beer is cold enough for you’, Drenth said, adding: ‘STAR LITE is a product of ice cold brewing, with the filter set below zero degrees Celsius which is very unique. This makes it crisp and very clear. It is also kept under ice cold conditions.’

The new beer brand, a line extension of STAR Lager, is brewed with 100% natural ingredients; the finest Malted Barley, high quality Hops, and the best quality water; as such, has fewer calories compared to other standard lager beers.

‘Lite implies fewer calories’, says Drenth. This beer is for modern and social gentlemen who like to stand out and lead an active lifestyle’.  It’s a cool innovation we at Nigerian Breweries are quite proud of, and confident our consumers will appreciate.

Think Before You Tweet, Lessons From Justine Sacco’s Saga

Who could’ve ever predicted that 140 characters could screw up so many people’s lives?

But that’s exactly what has happened to politicians, executives, government staff and others because of their comments on Twitter. This social media platform has morphed from a fun place to an information hub to a career killer.

And astoundingly, even people who work in PR — you know, the folks who are supposed to advise clients on how to avoid social media disasters — can tweet out statements that cause a media uproar. We saw that this weekend when Justine Sacco — who at that time was a PR executive — tweeted shortly before her 12-hour flight to South Africa on Friday: “Going to Africa. Hope I don’t get AIDS. Just kidding. I’m white!”

'Saudi Plane That Over-Ran Abuja Airport Runway Was Carrying Bullet-Proof Cars'

It has been confirmed that the contents of the Saudi Arabian Airline that ran into some construction equipment at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport on Wednesday, December 04, 2013, were security hardware.

The plane landed at about 9:19pm that day and blocked the only major runway at the airport, delaying takeoff and landing of flights in the airport for over 20 hours.

LEADERSHIP had exclusively reported that the Saudi cargo plane was carrying 15 Armoured Personnel Carriers (APCs) made in Russia, which compounded its immediate evacuation from the runway. In a reaction to LEADERSHIP story, the Embassy of Saudi Arabia agreed that the plane originated from Saudi Arabia and was carrying bullet-proof cars made in South Africa.

In a letter, dated December 20 to LEADERSHIP, the Saudi Embassy clarified that the Boeing 747 plane marked K 74798 "was chartered by Saudi Arabia Airline, carrying bullet-proof cars and its final destination is Murtala Muhammad Airport, Lagos, Nigeria.

The detailed description of the content of the plane is as follows: a set of bullet-proof cars weighing 58 tonnes. Another set of five bullet-proof cars weighing 42 tonnes. "The goods were a portion of a supply contract for 10 bullet-proof cars to a government agency in Nigeria, which were to be conveyed from Sharjah (UAE) via Abuja, through Fast Forward Cargo US UAC, to Defence Industries of Nigeria (DICON), 45 Ahmadu Bello Way, Kaduna, through the company's contact person: Mr Nwajpudu Livinston/CCC. The goods were manufactured in South Africa."

The Saudis wanted the impression that the cargo plane was carrying weapons be corrected since the goods aboard the plane "were neither those considered as dangerous nor prohibited."

The Nigerian aviation and military authorities had kept mum over the contents of the Saudi cargo plane despite reports of security hardware aboard it.
