PROTOCOLS

It affords me great privilege and honour to welcome you to this occasion in honour of Mr. Joseph Obah on his retirement from the services of the Institute after 25 years of selfless and meritorious service.

Permit me to say that Mr. Joseph Obah is unarguably one of the pillars of the secretariat of our great Institute. We acknowledge, in particular, the roles you played along with your contemporaries in laying the solid foundations upon which the Institute’s secretariat stands today. We appreciate your immense contributions to the actualization of the objectives for establishing the Institute.

It will interest you all to know that, tomorrow 25th April, 2015, Mr. Obah will mark his 60th Birthday, even though his young looks belies his age. It will also interest you to know that Mr. Obah’s sorjourn in the Institute began at a period when the Institute was in the process of attaining its Charter status which was finally gotten in 1993.

The Mr. Obah we are celebrating today is what we can refer to as a firebrand, a man of many talents; which has been harnessed over the years to the benefit and growth of the Institute. An astute Events Manager, an Orator, a Speech Writer per excellence, A Public Relations Expert, A Publisher and Editor with superb Crisis Management skills, an Astute Administratorand most notably, a genius MC and Compere

Distinguished ladies and gentlemen, I wish to state that Mr Obahis leaving the Institute in a much stronger position than he met it and I believe that is the goal of every human being.

We acknowledge that this day for him will signal mixed feelings; Happy because the day-to-day grind, alarm clock arousals and fighting rush hour traffic is over and sad because the daily routine and schedules of everyday adult life are bygone.

Let me conclude by saying; yes, there will be more time for music, travel and new challenges. I therefore wish you; Mr. Obah a wonderful retirement and a prosperous new beginning in your life.

Thank you for your attention.

Casino and Gaming Insurance

Anyone who operates or is considering opening up a casino or gaming establishment, requires insurance. As an online gambler, it is important that you play at a gambling establishment that follows reputable business practices. The best casinos are those that do not just protect their customers, but also protects themselves.

If you’re going to gamble online, you need to make sure that you choose a high-quality site like PlayMillion.com. Leading virtual casinos in the online gambling industry provide players with a secure and fair gaming environment. At PlayMillion, Players can enjoy 24/7 customer support, a multi-lingual platform, a VIP Lounge, a variety of promotions, and a truly generous signup bonus.

Customers of this internet casino brand can also enjoy great games like Caribbean Poker. This is an exciting card game and an interesting poker variant. Unlike other variants of this popular card game, while this version is similar to five-card stud, your opponent is the house, not the other players. Online Caribbean Stud is an exciting way to experience poker quickly and conveniently, whenever you want.

What else do you need to know about casinos and insurance? Unless you are a casino operator, there really isn’t anything else you need to think about. Essentially, when you are a player you need to concentrate on creating your own personal insurance to yourself. In other words, you need to make sure that you create a gambling budget and that you stick to it. Once you create a bankroll, your goal should never be to deplete it. This makes certain that you will always have money with which you can play. Equally, you should set yourself winning and losing limits, so you know when to call it a day.
