Saving Hand Development Initiative (SHADE-IN) on this special day,  wish to felicitate with workers as they celebrate this day set aside to focus on workers' role in nation building. From the left: Richard Eruotor, David Rotimi, Roland Ojeruse The theme of the 2018 International Workers' Day is: “Uniting Workers for Social and Economic Advancement”. We seize this opportunity to call on all Nigerian workers from the top of the hierarchy to the base to resolve in contributing meaningfully to their work better than before, so as to generate greater profit for their organisation, hence, advancing the socio-economic aspects of the nation. We especially call on public servants to add diligence, innovation, creativity, selflessness, accountability, transparency and integrity to their work as they collaborate with trade unions to enhance social and economic development. Particularly, we shout out to all teachers who are the builders of foundations and nations, who are the ...

TEENAGERS CHOICE CONFERENCE (TCC)

TCC is a conference of emerging leaders in our nation and beyond. It is a conference designed to challenge the minds of our teenagers in the area of leadership, capacity and character. This year we are working on a theme titled “ THE FOCUS” . We are quite aware of the danger of this information age where information is easily accessible by young people, thereby distracting them from having good relationship with their parents, peers and most especially their maker and creating redundancy in their development and performance. Having known from studies that natural play is essential for students growth and development, it is therefore pertinent that we teach these children on how to concentrate on one thing at a time and as well have good time for natural play and family union. It is with this understanding we are having the conference this year. Our annual Teenagers Choice Conference (champion teens), the very first of its kind will commence this year with the details ...

SHADE-IN Team @ Government Secondary School, Okporowo Ogbakiri, Rivers State, Nigeria on 7th May, 2013

 SHADE-IN TEAM with Teachers and Students We were all so excited knowing we would soon be in Ogbakiri. The reason for the joy is what I can’t explain myself, perhaps, it is the joy to reaching out to the great people of Okporowo. We were eager to be a blessing, and to give the lives of these little ones a meaning. We had a mental picture of what we thought the place was like but believe you me, we saw more than what we imagined. W hen we saw the driver pack, we were hoping we would go down to where the school was but   did not know that where we were was the school we sought.   It is really not a wonderful sight to behold such that we found it very necessary to appreciate the teachers who work there. Should we say the school is suffering from the greed and selfishness of our fathers who had no clear picture for their children’s future or those were times of ignorance? Whatever the case, suf...
