LC MEETING FOR JUNE 4TH

HEY AIESEC!!

How are we feeling?? Great and popping I hope?.

 So its 9pm Sunday evening in the beautiful city of Lagos and here i am once again creating the weekly blog post, but this time with a lot of fulfillment in my heart. For the first time in a while I feel like I can see the effect of my efforts. Calm down, calm down I know you are wondering what I am on about, but if you were at the last LC meeting you are a part of the reason for this joy. So after the eyesore of an ‘LM’ that happened last week, I came here and made a rally call to you the comrades of AIESEC LAGOS and you guys answered and showed me the stuff y’all are made of. The turn out for the last LC meeting was amazing to say the least.

Great stuff people. AIESEC LAGOS EHHHH!!!.

Lets make it even better next week.

Now down to the business for today….

HOW DID THE MEETING GO?

Meeting started at about a few minutes past the hour of 3 with Ibrahim and Samuel handling the meeting for this week. They started off with the normal ritual: tell us your name, Functional Area and what you did for AIESEC in the last week. Yeah yeah we are used to all that by now.

 After that then came our first FACI of the day: Bolaji Ogunaike and he took us on a session of financial knowledge.

1st FACI Ogunaike Omobolaji

 It was a really enlightening session as we learnt how to make good financial decisions even with the little income we make, the benefits of saving and investments and steps we could take to become financially stable even as youths. All in all kudos to Bolaji from FLA for a very informative session.

Then came our second FACI for the day: Abah Anthony and it was time for the ICE BREAKER!!!!. 

2nd FACI Abah Anthony

So we played one of our regular games where a group of people drop a person belonging and another group goes out to pick these belongings one by one and from there we help people get to know each other. At the end we had about 4 ‘couples’ come out to tell us what they had found out about each other and we had a couple of interesting things like someone liking ‘LONG’ tennis, okro soup and anything including bread!, and a couple of other stuffs that got the whole room rolling. Trust AIESECers to love smashing secrets…

participants for the game

Next up was LCP Hassan Nurudeen and he came up to make a few announcements. First Recruitment is on people. It would be a shame if we all enjoy the benefits AIESEC gives to us and do not preach the gospel to others. 2 sign ups so far is a big slap on our face as the giant LC of Nigeria. We can do better people, about time we start pushing out those links. Also big shoutout to the WECARE and Y4GG teams. Taking AIESEC and the SDGs to the next level. We see all your efforts and AIESEC LAGOS appreciates you all. Also we had visitors from LAUTECH come in to visit us.

how do i make these people come again next week?

BENEFITS OF JOINING AIESEC

 So most times when people are asked their reason for joining AIESEC majority give this simple but often over used answer: “to develop my leadership potentials”. Now lets be honest guys most of us don’t join for this reason and it takes the most honest of persons to admit that they joined AIESEC in search of fine ‘babes’ and ‘guys’. But do you know this is also a benefit of joining AIESEC  and it is no crime if this is your reason for joining as long as it isn’t your only reason. Where am I going with this?, we had an AIESEC Lagos alumnus in our midst at the last meeting: Mr Shola Kayode who is getting married next month(July 1^st to be precise) to another AIESECer. Oh yeah you heard me right!. An AIESEC wedding!, made in AIESEC! for AIESEC!. My ‘owambe’ people where you at? This one is for you.

He also gave out some job opportunities to  some AIESECers present at the meeting as well as sharing his AIESEC story with us also.

What is an LC Meeting without the joker himself

when hassan hears smash!...just look at bolaji also..smh

Meeting ended at past 5 with VP FLA reminding people to pay up their AIESEC dues before July 1^st.

Once again big shoutout to everyone who made the meeting. AIESEC Lagos appreciates all of your contributions to the LC no matter how little.

Thank you and God bless.

More life.
