Omongole R Anguria. Listening to Prof. Ogwang Patrick Engeu on the Capital Fm Radio Program, Desert Island, left me nearly in tears. While the COVIDEX story was both sad and exciting at the same time, it didn’t catch much of my attention, maybe because I was fairly an insider as a legal adviser and behind the scenes’ connector ‘with some political heavyweights, giving contacts here and there! However keenly listening to Professor Ogwang this evening, one simple thing caught my attention that hadn’t come to my knowledge despite being somewhat an insider from an outside perspective of some inside workings.…
Develop your mindset and you will see the difference
