EDMARK NIGERIA is filled with joy as one of of dear family member “babygirl” (as what we call her) celebrates her birthday.
At exactly 12:00 a.m. of Novemeber 10, we already greeted her with a cake and surprised her with two gifts that she never expected. As we know how simple Joanne is and the only way that will make her birthday complete is to be sorrounded by her beloved family and friends which is kinda hard because they are in Phils,. but thanks to the help of our bestfriend Maylyn Guillermo and Joanne’s sister Jenny,we managed to bring them here as they sent a greeting card signed by Joanne’s friends including Sir Jimmy Dinio and Sir Yap Wai Yen who sent his own greetings from Malaysia! And also a picture collection of her whole biological family back in the Phils.She was really surprised & overjoyed but the celebration didn’t simply end there…

Even though it’s the first day of Top-up and everyone is so busy we still had a nice gathering after work,Renz decorated the venue and after that around 9 pm the party started with a cheerful b-day song and a prayer for the b-day girl.After blowing the candle, we started to share delicious meal prepared by Me,Vanissa,TJ & Head Chef Romeo.

              
All of us had a wonderful time eating,laughing and singing. Most importantly,the Celebrant really had a great time.Even though she misses her family so much, we made sure to give her the best birthday party as possible.

Happy Birthday BabyGirl!!! Wishing you all the great things in life, hope in our own sincere ways, we did a share in making you happy this day.

May the love you have shown to others return to you abundantly.

Your best years are still ahead of you!

The 6th of November 2009 was marked as a learning day to all Nigerians as we held the 2nd MLT/TNT in the Adebola House, just opposite Edmark office at early 9:00 a.m. with the registration of the attendees before going inside the Presidential Hall for the seminar.

The event started with the Christian & Muslim prayer and followed immediately by the Dance Energizer. The emcee of the day, Emerald Manager Mary Daniyan Yakubu formally welcomed everyone and  proudly called  the speakers namely Senior Crown Kenneth Lumapas and Senior Crown Julie Awulor.

The audience was so motivated in hearing the speech of the two outstanding speakers where Ms. Awulor shared her experience along with emphasizing the benefits of the distributors and let them know that Edmark is for “Real”.
Dr. Kenneth as well, gave a big impact to the attendees as they were all carried along while he was presenting the modules. He encouraged participants to do their best in their business and they should at least copy from Senior Crown julie Awulor on how she achieved success in this business.

At the end of the day, the seminar was very outstanding,there were transformations in their mentality and many were motivated towards the steps and the right way of doing Edmark business. Truly, the Edmark Education System is a very powerful and effective tool for all the distributors to reach the top.

It was almost dark when preparations were complete for the night and there were some anticipating Edmarker around waiting to see it start off.  Most were just anxioius to see what there is going to be on the agenda.   (T.I.A) This Is Africa…. as it is not part of the culture of Ghanaians to celebrate Halloween annually; the marketing staff;  Edmark Accra did bring into the scene a “Masquerade  Party”. You can also call it a “dress up” party.  

The very first early bird;  Richard Kwame  who dressed like Ghana’s popular comedian ‘Bob Okala’.  It got dark already at about 7pm when most Edmarkers were changing up and making-up in their funniest, weirdest dresses.    Now party starts,  Ms.  Penny Agbevenu (DM) gave her Welcome Remarks  as you will notice her excitement about this party and also mentioned that Edmark makes all the Ghanaian happy for we have a lot of surprises and events happening   and of course she did invite and encourage all  Edmarker  to really join the  LTBC and to sign up ….
As the house got full we started off with an outstanding dance steps from the famous Micheal Jackson’s track “Thriller” that captivated ‘all and sundry’ to join on the floor following the dance steps and then the parade of custumes.  You sure can not tell who were behind the dresses and masks.  The marketing staff were all well dressed, Ms. Michelle dela Cruz (the cute vampire), Marvin (sophisticated lady), Lawal (Indigenous Indian), Anas (Contemporary Taliban) and Yusif (pregnant man).  Next on programme was the game “mummy wrapping”; the first game was so interesting, fun to watch whiles the participants were turning and twisting like crazy to finish up perfectly even as in their wildest costumes.  There was a winner with a perfect wrap and prize was awarded. The second game was “apple eating” with four pair of contestants; male and female aggressively biting the apples. Prize was awarded to the winner instantly.

Now  a surprise guest from the outside “ The Acrobatic Show ”  were most Ghanaian are shocked of the performance and talent showed by them…we can’t really explain the excitement just see all the action from  picture taken,  were CM Zeny Tulio invited to dance with them,  not knowing that the acrobatic will lift her up and participated the Acrobatic Show. REALLY WOW!! SUPER OUTSTANDING!!

The best costume dress up was awarded after a very brief contest of costumes.  It was co-incidentally the early bird with “Bob Okala’s” dress up.  It was an open dance floor after then, with drinking and some bites for all to enjoy. The programme ended successfully and some were around mingling and socializing.

We would like to give our gratitude to our Leaders  who went there to support the event,  CM John Lawer, DCM Redeemer Demordzie, DM Mohammed Abubakar,  Newly CM Ramatu Issahaku (oh Yes!) DM Penny Agbevenu (our lovely Host) and CM John Addo. It is truly fun to be a part of the Edmark family.

It  is only getting better with our regular LTBC Rally and today’s 4th LTBC Rally is as good as it can be and the very objective is gradually being achieved.

It started as usual with our opening prayers, both Christian and Islamic prayer; then it followed with our dance energizer as all joined us. It was lively, energetic and fun. One outstanding observation is that almost all attendees were new faces to this Rally and guests as well.  Our opening remarks were given by CM John Addo whose always present and supportive to Edmark activities.

SCM Julie Awulor came on to give the very first LTBC testimony.  Wow! That was very encouraging and mind twisting as she gave the benefits after joining the LTBC and cited herself as an example given all the development in her business and changes in her life. It was then followed with the “longest scream” game; where the person to be able to scream LTBC longer at the top of his/her voice will win.  There was a tie between a lady and a gentleman for 10 seconds  then it was broken with 11.87 seconds by the lady.

The second LTBC testimony was given by DM Christian Tetteh with lots of inspiring and motivating words. There was the enchanting and sexy performance by the P4 leader SM Beatrice Bothchway. She caught the whole crowd and did her thing whiles some audience joined her to dance. The second game was the “dance chairs”. It was much participated and that brought us to the end of the Rally after collecting all the LTBC signed up forms.  Then  we have again the closing prayer and then the Edmark City song dance energizer.

Edmark International! OH! YES!!!!
