The first son of Senator Hosea Ehinlawo Mr. Soji Ehinlanwo has declared that he is also interested in the race to the 2011 House of Representatives race under the Labour Party.

Mr. Soji Ehinlanwo stated this in Arogbo, the traditional headquarters of Arogbo Ijaws in Ese-Odo local government of Ondo State where he went to represent his father, a serving Senator in the National Assembly under the PDP as Chairman of  a Movie Album launch .

According to Soji Ehinlanwo, though he has come to represent his father as Chairman of the occasion, he is pleased to announce that he has indicated his interest to contest the House of Representatives election.

Sometime last year, Mr. Soji Ehinlanwo, defected to the Labour Party and this raised a lot of furore as his father is a serving Senator with a PDP ticket.

The relevance of the theme of the seminar “RETHINKING THE ILAJE ENTERPRISES” Which is the first of its kind cannot be over emphasized in the contemporary Ilaje Nation.

It is therefore my belief that every one present here today would not remain the same at the end of the seminar having listened to different professionals.

Let make it clear that every man is born with one talent or the other and for the fact that you are made in the image of God; it shows that you are specially created; you are unique and highly talented. This is the basis of which to anchor a trust on the Lord to build a successful career.

However, there are some key points that serve as catalysts to help you to be significant and successful in your career or profession. I know that our resource persons here would talk extensively on this, but let me just highlight some features that would enhance your preparedness for a successful career or profession in life.

I.    Self-Discovering: Every human being has talent, potentials and limitless capabilities, but you can only discover these through such means as education. Through education you are exposed to the world of a possibilities and a rare opportunity to decide your faith. Education leads to choosing a worthwhile career.

II.    Course of Study: Choosing a career is a direct result of the course of study undertaken at a certain level of your education. Your chosen course of study is either informed by your interest for some subjects at your secondary education level or based on your understanding of the comparative advantage you in a particular discipline. The bottom line, however, is that no course of.

III.    Study is irrelevant or insignificant: it depends on what you make out of it. Note that, one key characteristic of successful individuals is that they know what they want and are quick to take action to realize it. Modern trend, however, point to a course of study that ensure self-reliance and a profession that is action- oriented. Any career that is bias along this premix is bound to be productive and successful.

IV.    Creative: For one to be exceptional in his chosen career he needs to be creative and carve a niche for himself in that career. This will make him a special person to be looked for always. The secret of most exceptional professionals is the fact that they take the pain and time to study the past, compare the present practice among competitors and come out with some uncommon strategies that place them ahead in terms of productivity.

V.    Set a Tall Target & Goals: Productivity in a chosen career always obey the law of cause and effect. Something must first be planted before a harvest. Always think and act big, never underestimate the level you can attain in your career, therefore put in all that can enhance bumper harvest your time, energy, technical know-how and most importantly let people know the high standard you set yourself as this will form the reason for their relationship with you.

VI.    Patriotism & Honesty: Be honest with people and associates, and never underestimate the virtue of patriotism, as these play vital roles in your being productive and successful. Remember that you are a product of your society, your success and achievement in your chosen career should have positive impact on the society, as this will be the measure by which people will assess you.
