Some
Nigerian influential Media personalities also shared their thoughts on the
book. Some of the “Words on Marble”
include:
· The
best attitude for an OAP in a new location is to imagine that you are going to
war to conquer a new city – Olisa Adibua
· Media work is all about
creativity, you can’t sleep your way to the top, if you don’t have it in you,
you do not have it! If you are not proactive and dedicated to the profession,
you will fizzle out, but if you are focused and you are driven, you will get
there without dirt. - Toke Makinwa
· Radio
has changed, then, it was about your voice but today, people focus more on your
appearance and they are looking out for you on the red carpet. So you have to
be able to balance your voice and skills with your looks. – Gbemi Olagbegi
·
It is backward thinking to say or
think that women in the media are not wife materials. If a woman have a good
job, makes her own money, carries herself in a respectful way, I don’t see
anything wrong with that. Toolz O Demuren
