Prof. Rita Orji, PhD

I am honoured to have been appointed to the United Nations, @UN International Independent Scientific Panel on AI. I look forward to working alongside global experts to advance scientific understanding and support evidence-informed international deliberations on AI.

Happy Sunday, my people!!!

We go from the known to the unknown.

My first motivation to work hard was to run away from poverty. It was that simple. We didn’t start out wanting to change the world. Happy weekend, my people!

May you find the wisdom and enough money to fulfill your purpose!

The power of self-understanding and awareness is underrated I pray for the discernment to understand who you truly are It holds the answers to many things you seek So, who really are you?

Man, know thyself This statement is short, but it forms the basis of many struggles & much progress in life Many are excelling today bc they took the time to understand who they truly are & what their unique selling point is Others are struggling because they missed the mark..

It shall be well with you!

Here’s something we don't talk about enough: The road to success often feels boring. Consistency isn’t exciting either. But both work! Keep going!

Confidence isn’t loud. It’s quiet consistency. I wish you that kind of confidence.

Not every closed door is a rejection. Sometimes it’s protection. I wish you the patience to trust that.

Learn to walk away from gossip! The same mouths talking about others today will talk about you tomorrow. Since breaking news dey sweet you You go soon become the breaking news!!! #PidginEnglish‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

One of the hardest life lessons: Some people only support you when you are struggling. Not when you are succeeding. You almost become their enemy when you start to succeed. Succeed anyway!

@Cocmez We are not in the same field.

@ritapurity Please Prof, could you grant permission that I forward my CV via your mailbox for guidance

Learn to fast. It’s good for both your spiritual growth and your health. Your body needs a break sometimes. Start today and thank me later.

@Cocmez I wish I had the power to make that happen for you.

@ritapurity My dear Prof, on the 23rd of this month I shall be clocking 40. My personal vision as written in 2004 that at 32 I must have earned my PhD but here I am today still struggling to get that. Please remember me in your fervent prayers

@lanrey_yahya It could be a mentor-mentee relationship; however, it doesn't have to be. You can understudy someone who doesn't even know you. Read about them, their journey, their mistake, successes, way of life, life philosophy, lessons shared etc.

@ritapurity How does this “understudying” work in practice? Is it more of mentor-mentee relationship, or was it sort of an apprenticeship?

I spent a major part of last year understudying a few people! Success can be imitated!

I am my ancestors’ wildest dreams!
