Ajegunle.org is an initiative of Paradigm Initiative Nigeria (PIN), which connects young people with ICT enabled opportunities to create better livelihoods through its ICT, Entrepreneurship and Life skill training.
The project now reaches more young people in the community running morning and evening classes – about 40 students every cycle. The ICT classes for the 2014 C session focused on Microsoft Office Packages, design tools & the internet. An highlight of the ICT Training was the research the students had to carry out for their PowerPoint presentation class. Many of them admitted that it was the most challenging educational assignment they had ever done because they had to research, write creatively, work within a team and make presentations to their classmates, trainers and PIN staff.
The Entrepreneurship classes commenced with the Introduction to Entrepreneurship, and it was facilitated by industry experts. The students were trained on Marketing, Finance, Managing Risks, Staffing, Social Impact, Customer relations and Writing Business Plans.
Ademola Adeoye, MD Worldclassimpact, Ronald Nzimora, MD Profit Marketing Systems Limited (PMSL), David Ekugum of SESEWA support services and Bola Akeju of Wecyclers were among the facilitators for the 2014 C session . Life skill sessions were taken by Mrs. Oluwaseyifunmi Walter and Rev. Yomi Olufiade.
“Before I came in for Ajegunle.org Capacity Building Program, I had big dreams but I was not inspired on my own,” says John-beloved Agwanzenini of his experience at the Ajegunle Innovation Centre (AJIC).
Preparations are ongoing for the 2014 Class C session which commences on the 11th August – 26th September 2014. We look forward to touching the lives of 40 more young Nigerians.

Doctors have many challenges to face as they are perennially surrounded by patients, diseases, hospital duties and over-extended or odd shift timings. Universally, doctor is considered to be a noble profession and respectable one at that, but a doctor also has to work under immense pressures, emotional strains and other physical challenges.
A regular physician like most of us at some point face will have to deal with personal situations such as important family affairs, family holidays, sickness or pregnancy that may force them to abandon medical duties. At the same time, a hospital or a healthcare facility is also constantly faced with emergency situations that demand all hands on deck round-the-clock. Therefore, every hospital, clinic or nursing home is compelled to hire locum tenens or substitute doctor in order to keep the staffing under control at all times.
In fact, locum doctors are the most valuable asset for the medical community because they provide quality medical care and act as a helping-hand in emergency situations when the medical facilities need them the most.
Unlike regular or permanent doctors, locum doctor jobs are also ideal career options for medical interns and graduates because they offer a wide array of medical exposure in varied medical specialties, work cultures and healthcare systems. Locum jobs are challenging and flexible, thus an increasing number of medical professionals have benefitted from these jobs, so whether one is looking for a family physicians position or in a hospital or in a clinic, locum jobs for doctors are available at all levels and in different healthcare systems.
In addition, being a locum doctor gives a medical professional the control over their working hours, location of work and choice of area of specialisation. Technically, locum positions are not restricted to general physicians but they are also extended to other fields of medical specialisations such as cardiology, neurology and many more.
Travelling can be an integral part of locum jobs, and these distinctive features are a boon for many dedicated medical professionals who are eager to expand their medical careers with loads of multi-cultural medical experiences. The fact that locum agencies in the UK recruit tens of thousands of locums from across the globe in various NHS hospitals, private clinics, nursing homes and other public hospitals speaks volume of the popularity of locum jobs.
Locating or getting a locum tenens job is a simple task as long as you are registered with one of the many reputable locum agencies. These agencies act as the middle man between locum tenens and medical facilities, and they also look after all the details pertaining to travel for locum tenens, accommodation and the nature of locum work.
Thus, maintaining a healthy locum doctor-agency relationship benefits both the parties, and it also increases the probability of getting recommendable employment opportunities and businesses or vice-versa.
