NIGERIA chapter of the China Europe International Business School (CEIBS) Alumni Association has inducted 47 new members into the group.
The inductees from different parts of the country who undertook various programmes at the school were inducted at the annual general meeting of the group in Lagos, recently.
Speaking at the event, the president of the association, Mr. Sunday Agboola, enjoined the new members to use their good positions to support the course of the less privileged members of the society.
He explained that the charity dinner also held at the event was to raise money to support the less privileged people in the society and continue the social intervention programme the association is known for.

While noting that the association had carried out many school rehabilitation programmes as a cardinal intervention in the country’s education, Agboola added that the group would be more visible in partnership, trade collaboration, networking and charity activities in 2020.
He, however, urged individuals to imbibe the culture of proper documentation of their life stories and milestones for the purpose of inspiring young entrepreneurs.
He said: “The culture of business schools is to have successful entrepreneurs tell their stories, highlight their experiences, challenges and what they have done differently that have made them successful. This is what happens in most countries of the world.
“But in Nigeria, we cannot even tell the stories of successful entrepreneurs. A lot of them do not have track records. There are no much records about the majority of those who really worked hard to attain success.
“People know that they are successful, but when you research into their life’s stories, you really do not see much. We should begin to document our journey all the way. We do not have to wait to achieve success to do this. This is the only way we can break this jinx.”
