Who we are:

Know-Edge NIGERIA! is a Change Nigeria Initiative exclusively devoted to building capacity in YOUNG Nigerian entrepreneurs and professionals; to guarantee best practices, values re-orientation and peak performance.

Our Goal:

To champion the course of a ‘new Nigeria’, through the breeding of an exemplary generation of Nigerians [entrepreneurs and professionals] who are sound in morals and values, exceptional in character, passionate about impact, with high reverence for integrity and a deep consciousness of the FUTURE.

The Passion:

Know-Edge NIGERIA! could be seen as the reaction of a group of young Nigerians to certain forms of mediocrity they noticed in society. Their belief was that the most civilized way to speak against things they didn’t agree with was to recreate/rebuild and create an ALTERNATIVE. They resolved to DO something about their frustrations.

Reality is, Nigeria faces loads of developmental challenges, and as a result, this progressively frustrates the dreams and aspirations of the average Nigerian youth. The natural effect is the upsurge of various degrees of self-centredness, financial/moral bankruptcy and mediocrity; and this is allegedly spearheaded by those he/she is supposed to look up to for guidance and leadership.

These frustrated and misdirected youths are left with no options but to fall for the cheap belief that the only ‘way’ to attain success or relevance in society is to look for “shortcuts”... Without necessarily bothering about legality, values or morals!

Shamefully but truthfully, 98% of our youths do not have a compelling reason for living, neither do they have a pleasing picture of what they want to make out of life. Most of us just live to grow older. We have been forced to become victims of circumstances and made to believe we have no control over what life presents! This has made living a waste of time, it has killed our self-worth and confidence, it has made us look cheap and even made us lose value for our fellow man.

Know-Edge NIGERIA! has shown up on the horizon to put an end to mediocrity. We believe the average Nigerian youth can be outstanding, if only direction and the necessary support is made available. Especially, RIGHT DIRECTION!

History has time after time acknowledged the brilliant and fantastic performances of our youths at various sport competitions, international science and technology contest, art exhibitions and seminars. Some of our youths have time after time developed incredible computers softwares, scientific, industrial and art products and contemporary business concepts that can stand ‘head and shoulder’ with the ones from the developed world.

We don’t need any more conviction; we know for sure that the average Nigerian youth is talented, exceptional, unconquerable and full of passion. The core of what our youths have lacked is DIRECTION AND MENTORSHIP BY THE RIGHT PERSONS.

We therefore make a promise to: “equip and empower the average Nigerian youth with clear direction, a unique sense of purpose, an unquenchable passion for life and excellence by providing useful direction, preaching values and rewarding excellence, patriotism and untainted result, CELEBRATING TRULY EXEMPLARY CHARACTERS, thus creating a road map for the younger ones to follow.”

Know-Edge NIGERIA! is focused on becoming Nigeria’s foremost Business and Success Motivation Manual, for the Nigerian youth. Our goal is to become a resource of national reference for Business/Personal Development.

Every edition is loaded with choice inspirational articles on business, leadership and success motivation; alongside interviews of exemplary Nigerians who have distinguished themselves in their various fields of endeavour... these are folks we are confident to project as Role Models for others to take after.

Our desire is to catalyze, crystallize and concretize national reformation through our medium

Our Methods:

The cardinals of Know-Edge Publications are: Business, Leadership and Success Motivation. Though our METHODS are wide-ranging, the message is always the same.

Some of our methods include:

• Know-Edge Bookshelf
• Know-Edge Merit Awards
• Entrepreneurs Forum
• Teach Me A Skill
• Free Success Motivation/Business Conferences (for youth-based moral and nongovernmental organizations).

We refer to each edition of our magazines as a ‘KIT’. This is because articles and interviews in each edition address a SINGLE contemporary issue, in a very unique style.
