Here's How To Start Branding Yourself As A Student. Many students are walking around campus with vibes, exam stress and indomie energy, but zero personal brand. Meanwhile, your future employer is somewhere scrolling through LinkedIn like, “Who can I trust with this opportunity?” And you? You’re posting ‘outside tonight’ and shouting “God when”. 😭 Or are you saying: "I'll cross that bridge when I reach there😒" Toor. Let’s fix it now. Here are simple ways to start branding yourself, even as a student: no pressure, no ring light, no tripod, nothing. 1️⃣ Pick ONE thing you want to be known for. Not five. Not seven. Just one. 📌 “Future Pharmacist Pen” (already taken sha 😌) 📌 “Public Health storyteller” 📌 “Campus tech guy” 📌 “Makeup artist who saves students’ pockets” Your brand starts when people can say: “That’s the person that does…” If they can’t complete that sentence, your branding hasn’t started. 2️⃣ Start sharing the SMALL things you already know. People think branding is dropping TED Talks. No. It’s simply showing what you’re learning. Examples: “What I learned today in Biopharmaceutics…” “A study tip that helped me survive this week…” “A funny mistake I made during practicals…” “How I improved my makeup game this semester…” Consistency beats perfection, every time. 3️⃣ Clean your social media like someone expecting visitors. Your bio should not look like: “📍ABSU | ❤️Jesus baby | 🤪 Born to be wild | ✨Small girl big God.” Ah ah! My dear, what should people follow you for? Fix it: ✔ Pharmacy student | Future clinical pharmacist ✔ Public health advocate ✔ Content creator sharing study, career & lifestyle tips That’s a brand. Simple and clean. 4️⃣ Your DP matters. You can't be shouting “personal brand!” But your profile picture looks like someone hiding from EFCC. Pick a clear, friendly, confident photo, that’s your first impression, and that's what people trust. 5️⃣ Start showing your growth journey, not perfection. People don’t fall in love with “experts.” They fall in love with students becoming experts. Post things like: ✅Your struggles ✅Your small wins ✅What you learned ✅What you failed at and corrected ✅Behind-the-scenes of your daily grind That's what builds connection, and connection builds brand loyalty. 6️⃣ Network like someone that wants to leave Nigeria eventually. Reply comments. Talk to seniors. Engage other creators. Connect with lecturers with sense. Build your circle before you need your circle. 7️⃣ Be consistent even if your procrastination spirit is fighting you. You don’t need to post daily. Just show up enough for people to trust your presence. Remember: You are your biggest project. And people are watching you more than you think. If you start today, you won’t recognize yourself in 6 months. Branding isn’t just for influencers. It’s for students who want to stand out. Students who want opportunities. Students who want visibility. Students who want to matter. And that student can be YOU.

Uniport Alumni Spotlight: Meet Dr. Alex Chioma Otti, Governor of Abia State. From the lecture halls of the University of Port Harcourt to the commanding heights of banking, economic policy, and public leadership — Dr. Alex Chioma Otti has built a career that proves excellence is not an act, but a lifelong commitment. Studying Economics at the University of Port Harcourt, Dr Otti distinguished himself early, graduating with a First Class Honours degree in 1988. His years at Uniport were marked by an uncommon blend of academic brilliance and leadership: he served first as Treasurer, then President of the Nigerian Economics Students Association (NESA), and even took on the role of News Editor of the Uniport Mirror campus publication. His devotion to academics earned him recognition as the Best Graduating Student in the Department of Economics, the best in the Faculty of Social Sciences, and the Overall Best Graduating Student of his year. Yet, instead of walking the predictable path of academia, Otti envisioned a future shaped by financial intelligence, reforms, and nation-building. This vision propelled him into Nigeria’s banking sector, where he rose steadily through institutions such as Nigerian International Bank (Citibank), UBA, and subsequently became the Group Managing Director/CEO of Diamond Bank Plc. Under his leadership, Diamond Bank strengthened its global footprint, expanded its customer reach, and implemented modern digital banking systems that contributed to making the institution one of Nigeria’s most innovative banks of its era. His academic journey didn’t end at Uniport. Otti obtained an MBA from the University of Lagos, followed by executive programs at Columbia Business School, Stanford Business School, Wharton (University of Pennsylvania), and INSEAD, France — training that sharpened his competence and broadened his worldview. In recognition of his outstanding contributions to finance and national development, the University of Port Harcourt awarded him an honorary Doctor of Science degree in 2012. But Dr Otti’s greatest pivot came when he stepped into the political arena — choosing service over comfort. Guided by a desire to rebuild institutions and restore the dignity of governance, he contested and won the office of Governor of Abia State in 2023, where he continues to champion reforms grounded in transparency, fiscal discipline, and people-centered development. His leadership today bears the imprint of his Uniport years: intellectual curiosity, discipline, courage, and a commitment to excellence. Beyond public office, Dr. Otti is known for his mentorship, philanthropy, and investment in human capital. His work continues to inspire young Nigerians to believe that with integrity, competence, and resilience, they too can shape the future. Today, Dr. Alex Chioma Otti stands tall as one of Uniport’s most distinguished alumni — a reminder that education is not just a qualification, but a launchpad for nation-building, innovation, and transformational leadership. Your degree isn’t just a certificate. It’s a platform to lead, to innovate, and to impact generations. 📌 If you know any Uniport Alumni doing exploits, do well to mention them in the comment section and we might just shine the spotlight on them. _____________________________________________ We have a WhatsApp channel.

DID YOU KNOW it’s illegal to feed pigeons on the sidewalks and streets in San Francisco? Sure, a sprinkle of breadcrumbs to feed hungry birds may seem harmless but in the popular Californian city, you could get into trouble. San Francisco’s Public Works Department explains this law is in place because there “are dozens of reasons why” you shouldn’t feed your new pigeon friends, “but mainly: feeding pigeons harm our neighborhoods and also harms the birds.” #DidYouKnow

UNIPORT Lecturer Exposes Deception Behind ‘Sign-Out’ Jamborees A lecturer at the University of Port Harcourt (UNIPORT), Dr. Ovunda Ihunwo, has raised alarm over what he describes as the “deceptive culture” of sign-out jamborees, warning parents to be more vigilant about their children’s true academic standing before celebrating. In recent years, it has become common to see graduating students marking the end of examinations with “sign-out” ceremonies, often characterized by elaborate parties, designer outfits, loud music, spraying of money, and in some cases, the active participation of parents. However, Dr. Ihunwo noted that a growing number of these celebrations are misleading, as some students who participate may not have actually met their graduation requirements. “Parents must be careful. Some of the students you see signing out are not even cleared academically,” Ihunwo cautioned. “They are deceiving themselves, their parents, and the public.” The lecturer stressed that many students engage in sign-out events as a show of status and social pressure, even while still battling carryovers, outstanding fees, or other issues that could delay their graduation. According to him, such displays create false impressions and put parents in an awkward position when the truth eventually surfaces. Observers say the culture of sign-out jamborees, once a simple farewell gesture among classmates, has ballooned into a social trend fueled by peer influence, social media clout, and the desire for public validation. For many families, it has become a symbol of pride, with parents sometimes funding the extravagant outings without verifying if their children are genuinely through with school. Dr. Ihunwo urged parents to demand academic confirmation before supporting such ceremonies, while also encouraging students to focus on completing their studies with integrity rather than chasing fleeting moments of celebration. “Graduation is a milestone that should be backed by proof of academic achievement, not just customized shirts and noise,” he emphasized. His remarks have sparked conversations on campus and online, with some students agreeing that the sign-out craze has become excessive, while others argue that it remains an important rite of passage regardless of academic hurdles. #Copied #portHarcourtSpecials #uniport

Uniport Final Year Students of Public Administration Made to Rewrite GES 101.2 Due To GES Unit Misplacing Their Results. Final year students of Public Administration had to rewrite a year one course, GES 101.2 (Computer Appreciation and Application) examination this month because their results got lost. A whole department's result got lost and some people in GES still have their jobs. They've been following up this issue over the years and it ended with them having to rewrite the exam. This not only burdened the students academically but also financially even though they had to pay #3,000 for registering the course instead of #6,000. This is not the first time such is happening. Uniport General Studies (GES) Unit need to do better and until the School Management start disciplining members of Staff, things like this will keep happening. Where's Uniport Servicom when you need them?! We hope, very big hope, this won't reoccur. _____________________________________________ We have a WhatsApp channel.
