Bodex Hungbo Celebrates Career Day At Princeton College, Urges Students To Be Resilient

Multiple award-winning Nigerian digital media practitioner and CEO of Bodex International, a company that prides itself in digital strategy, public relations consultancy, brand and event management, Bodex Hungbo, has noted that opportunities come with preparedness.

She stated this during a Career Day event organised by Princeton College.

Speaking on the theme of the programme, “Maximizing Opportunities and Succeeding in a World of Challenges”, Bodex specifically reflected on her experiences in the media industry as a blogger and a PR consultant.


 


She also recounted her experiences and the hurdles she needed to cross when it was imperative that her PR business needed a breakthrough
which eventually happened when she had the opportunity to work for the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria a few years ago.

She charged the students and gave them the needed tips for recognizing opportunities when it comes calling, adding that opportunities most timescome with responsibilities and therefore must be met with preparedness.

In his opening speech, the school principal, Steve Obiakor, urged the students to pay more attention to self-development which is currently very critical, irrespective of a chosen course of study.

He added that self-development is achieved by acquiring 21st century career skills which serves as a credible catalyst for maximizing opportunities and meeting challenges. The principal asked the students to pay attention to such skills as: communication, critical thinking, networking, digital literacy and cultural appreciation through reading, participating in online/offline training programs and making good use of their study times.

Other speakers at the event were the national coordinator/founder of Positive Values Initiative International and the CEO of Oraks Konsult Ltd, Lady Franca Orakwue, and Kelechi Anyalechi, a prolific author and founder of the Young High Flyer Coaching Academy, as well as Revamp Africa Foundation.

The speakers took turn to relay their life experiences and how they have persevered in the face of daunting challenges to come thus far.

They also encouraged the students to pursue their careers and also develop their talents at the same time.

In her speech, Kelechi Anyalechi urged the students not to abandon talents and skills such as music and sports which he readily noticed amongst the students.

The highlights of the event were award presentations to the speakers and musical performance by the school’s orchestra group.

Princeton College is a prestigious school reputed for nurturing students to meet the 21st century academic and non-academic needs.
