Voices from 4th History Series

4th Edition ACSPN History Series

December 8, 2017

Venue: Lagos State Polytechnic, Ikorodu.

I think the association is doing great! They are doing great!  Honestly, I didn’t even know there was a platform like this where one could talk to the young ones.  Although when I heard that Vincent Maduka, Segun Osoba and Odukomaiya (another big boy) have been on this platform to talk to the students, I thought definitely I needed to come. It’s very good. I hope the students learn little by little from the series, ask more questions as they go along and they will get there.  You know nothing comes on a platter of gold anymore…”

Sir Steve Omojafor – Chairman, STB McCann.

The programme was an eye-opener to me. It was exciting to see the brain behind one of the great advertising agencies.”

“The ACSPN History Series which seeks to fill a critical gap in the fundamentally eroded space of history in Nigeria’s educational system through sharing the experiences of the select team of those who have played key roles in communication, media and journalism in Nigeria is a novel and laudable development which should be commended by all… One must commend the initiators of the History Series for their Strategic vision at rekindling our memories of the “platinum set” of professionals whose exploits in the filed of communication, media and journalism in Nigeria have become the defining point for which the profession is known.”
Mr. Samuel Oluyinka Sogunro – Rector, Lagos State Polytechnic 

This programme is the best of all the programmes I have attended this year.  It has changed my mentality about partnership and affiliation.  I must say that I am privileged to be here.  The guest speaker is awesome and he did justice to the topic.  I wish this kind of event occurs often in order to educate and empower students.

“Based on what I have seen and heard, I am highly happy and opportune to be here.  I really enjoyed the session with Sir Steve Bamidele Omojafor especially his style of presentation and approach to sharing the knowledge he has gained over the years. I see the attributes of a role model in him.  I say thank you to him and the other speakers who made short comments. Thank you

Onyugba Elizabeth Ugochukwu – ND III Student, Department of Mass Communication, Lagos State Polytechnic, Ikorodu.

“The 4th edition of the Association of Communication Scholars & Professionals of Nigeria (ACSPN) was an educative one.  The lecture touched on not just the education and skills but touched on moral issues.  The lecture by Sir Steve Omojafor, which covered the issue of advertising, partnership and also human relationships, has surely changed the orientation of students about the field of advertising.  I am sure that going forward students will make use of the knowledge from the experience shared in their various fields in life. Thank you. ”

“The teaching was wonderful and educative.  It really shed light on what advertising is and how to make advertising agencies work.  The area of partnership was well taught and his point on what to do in partnership – “having a good root” makes me understand the importance of choosing the right partner.”

Isaac Oluwasegun O. – HND I Student, Department of Mass Communication, Lagos State Polytechnic, Ikorodu.

I am glad and happy that the School of Communication and Liberal Studies, Lagos State Polytechnic hosted the 4th edition of the Association of Communication Scholars and Professionals of Nigeria History Series.  The programme gives students the necessary knowledge so they know where to focus in life.  And the guest speaker – Sir Steve Bamidele Omojafor was very candid as he shared his experiences on how he started an advertising business with his friends and this has made me willing to have such an experience in the future.  I hope the department gets another opportunity to host this programme.

Ologinju Khadijat Abimbola – HND II Student, Department of Mass Communication, Lagos State Polytechnic, Ikorodu.

It is a privilege to speak to professionals in the field especially Sir Steve Omojafor.  I observed that he is very calm and explanatory and he gave sound advice to the students on how to choose great partners that would last for a long time. I learnt a lot from his presentation especially how to choose good partners and neglect any distraction to my carrier.  This edition is really a great gathering for students.”

Oladele Esther Toyin – HND I Student, Department of Mass Communication, Lagos State Polytechnic, Ikorodu

It was amazing.”
