Prof. Ibe Calls For A Finishing School For Engineers …As NSE Visits

From TCNEWS

To achieve the best engineering practices, an acclaimed investor and employer of skilled and unskilled labour in Abia State, Prof. Gregory Ibe has called for a finishing school for engineers as obtainable in other professional bodies.

Speaking when the Nigerian Society of Engineers, NSE Umuahia branch paid a courtesy visit to him at Uturu, Prof. Ibe who is also the founder and Chancellor of Gregory University Uturu, GUU maintained that the school will help perfect the jobs, skills and other critical elements, as it affects the engineering profession.

He decried that the engineers have lost lots of opportunities to artisans as a result of lack of entry behaviour as most engineers are not practically oriented.

Prof. Ibe who is also a governorship aspirant under the platform of the All Progressive Grand Alliance, APGA assured the engineers a befitting NSE Secretariat, if duly elected as the governor of Abia State.

Earlier in his address, the Chairman NSE Umuahia branch, Engr. Nnamdi Nwasuka represented by the NSE National Interviewer and Chief Examiner, Engr. Victor Ihediwa stated that the body came to felicitate with Prof. Ibe and Gregory University, Uturu for the enviable strides and contributions recorded in providing quality education especially in engineering education and development.

The Chairman who described Prof. Ibe as “Engineering centric, Engineering friendly and Engineering experienced following his affinity with the profession, maintained that Nigeria will be well placed when engineering practice is gotten right with the government and society’s involvement with full understanding.

He therefore solicited for partnership between NSE and GUU to proffer solution to the present problems bedevilling the nation.

While expressing their readiness to partner with NSE, the Dean, College of Engineering GUU, Engr. Prof. Soki Okolie reiterated that Engineers remained solution providers, as they are properly equipped to propel socioeconomic development of any region, if adequately carried along.

Hello. And Bye.

Remember that.
Picture of Benjamin Franklin and a caption that says “Aphorist Extraordinaire”
It’s easier to do it yourself rather than try to explain it to someone else.
Finally, All things come to those who wait is a good aphorism we’re all familiar with.
But there’s no certain magic to sprinkling aphorisms into your writing.
But not today.
Proverbs, on the other hand, can be much longer than aphorisms and adages.
Fall seven times, stand up eight.

So my advice.
Don’t judge a book by its cover.
Proverbs, on the other hand, can be much longer than aphorisms and adages.

The meaning.
The part in Star Wars where Yoda says, There is do, or do not.

That’s not what you expected, was it.
This quote came from Wales, first appearing in an 1866 publication.
Pick an aphorism that relates to your message and use it to stay focused on your overarching theme.
But one key difference is that for a phrase to be truly aphoristic, it needs to be a short statement.
We see this in literature all the time.
It originally read, Count not they chickens that unhatched be…

The meaning.
The idea is simple.
Napoleon Bonaparte could relate.
Interestingly enough, this saying was initially intended as a compliment.
Why is this stuff important.
Then use it as a guideline to stay focused on your general theme.
That’s why aphorisms, adages, and proverbs are synonyms for each other.
The early bird gets the worm.
This famous motto highlights the truism that life is full of ups and downs.
He played the villain in the movie that famously stated.
Sandys said, Honestie the best policie, which in modern English is…
One of his most notable is, An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
The original saying was, Eat an apple on going to bed, and you’ll keep the doctor from earning his bread.
