Will Rwanda Be Next in Line for a “Pele” Stadium? — Making the case for Huye “Edson”? Stadium*

0
As Cape Verde takes the first stab at renaming its 15,000-seater Estadio Nacional de Cabo Verde, located just outside the capital Praia (in Santiago South Zone), the Pele Stadium, there may well be other African contenders such as Rwanda.
The news comes after Fifa’s president Gianna Infantino proposed — while speaking at Pele’s memorial service in Brazil — that every country should name a stadium after the footballing legend who died on 29 December, aged 82.

“As a tribute and recognition to this figure that makes us all great, I manifest the intention of naming our national stadium as ‘Pele Stadium’, in an initiative that, I believe, will be followed by several countries around the world […] With the physical disappearance of Edson Arantes de Nascimento, King Pele, who soon became a planetary figure, an icon of the masses showing that sport has the power to unite the world, it is now our wish to pay tribute to him,” […] in a statement that stressed the importance of Pele to Portuguese-speaking countries like Cape Verde.

Against the backdrop of this first mover by Cape Verde, a Portuguese African country (note the affinity with Brazil), I reflect upon three others including francophone Cameroon, Rwanda (debateable) and Senegal, as well as Anglophone South Africa, host of the 2010 World Cup. The least likely of these is evidently Rwanda with the less established global footballing presence (just like Cape Verde).

As for the more established Cameroon and Senegal, the former having only recently hosted the TotalEnergies Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) between 9 January and 6 February 2022 -availing the nation an opportunity to showcase its stadia across five main cities, namely Japoma Stadium (Douala), Ahmadou Ahidjo and Olembé Stadiums (Yaoundé), Kouekong Stadium (Bafoussam), Roumdé-Adjia Stadium (Garoua) and the Limbe Omnisport Stadium (Limbe-Buea).

In the case of the latter, Senegal, thanks to Turkish investment in stadiums and sports infrastructure in Africa, Istanbul-based “Summa” built the US$260 million Diamniadio Olympic Stadium. As reported in a recent article, it wasn’t long ago that Turkish President Erdogan:

oversaw the unveiling of his country’s latest high-profile construction project in Africa — a 50,000-seat stadium on the outskirts of Senegalese capital Dakar”.

Rwanda is implicated in conversations about Senegal and Turkish investments in Africa, as reported in the media, “the venue (Huye stadium) was initially the only option that Rwanda had if it was to host home matches but following delays in renovating both the Amahoro stadium and Kigali stadium, the tie against Senegal was moved to Dakar”.

 

The same firm is reportedly replicating that development with Amahoro, the national stadium of Rwanda located in Kigali City, and the now 20,000-capacity Huye Stadium, which is located in Huye District in the Southern Province of football loving Rwanda.

It is noteworthy that neither the national team, Amavubi, nor local clubs were able to host their continental competitive matches prior to now, as both were rejected from hosting the Rwanda-Senegal match following a supervision team visit from CAF which deemed them unready-thus forcing “Amavubi” to play their AFCON qualifiers against Senegal in the more ready Senegalese capital of Dakar.

Alas Huye stadium is now ready!! According to Sports Minister, Aurore Munyangaju Mimosa:

It is a pride for our country, it is a pride for Rwandans that Huye stadium is now ready to host international games…”

Perhaps another Turkish exploit is on the cards as the Turkish foreign minister Mevlut Cavusoglu is set to visit Rwanda on Thursday, January 12, as part of a 5-nation Africa tour that starts today Sunday, January 8.

So why not consolidate on that pride with Huye Edson Stadium? Be on the lookout for our forthcoming book chapter “Public Sector Marketing Communications: Insights from/for the Primus National Football League Rwanda,” as published In: Public Sector Marketing Communications, Volume IIPalgrave Studies of Public Sector Management in Africa.

Do not Underestimate the Power of Culture As You Pick New Jobs

You have known him for years, and he has been unable to demonstrate the capacity to set goals and accomplish them. Yet, you believe that after marriage that you will change him. Too bad, after the marriage, instead of you changing him, he influenced and changed you. Now, “clock” has been removed from that home, and no one has any plan for anything.

The same happens when we’re looking for jobs or moving into new cities. You looked at that team as you toured that company. You reviewed Glassdoor as you did your research on the firm. You asked questions from people. And the conclusion was clear: the culture was yoyo. Yes, anything goes.

Even though you did not like the culture, you went ahead, being sure that you would change the culture. I have a line for you: ensure your defense is great because they could also influence you through a fast pace acculturation that will change you. 

An organizational culture is difficult to characterize, yet it’s woven into everything an organization does. It’s the reason workers love or loathe their employments, or clients can feel esteemed or overlooked. Like notoriety, it takes a very long time to assemble a decent culture, yet just a couple of stumbles to destroy everything. That’s why smart founders focus on developing company culture from day one, and work like mad to protect it for the duration.

Start-up founders typically focus on improving their hard metrics that they think little of the organizational culture. They have outsourced that responsibility to someone in the firm. Yet, organizational culture isn’t just about office game rooms, free titbits or easy-going Friday. It’s about how your group cooperates. It’s what your group has confidence in, and what they esteem the most. For the staff to work together, a solid organizational culture is important.

Here are some pointers to build an authentic and engaging culture irrespective of the size of your firm – stat-up, ramp-up  or an established organization.

People, unless you are a culture transformation expert, do not underestimate how a corporate culture you think you could overcome will swallow you. Remember small data.

The Rise Of Stablecoin Dai And Meme Token Big Eyes Coin Is Intrinsically Related

0

Two coins, Dai and Big Eyes Coin (BIG) couldn’t seem more different, and yet one unique aspect has kept both tokens steady in troubled waters.

While stablecoin and meme coin may have different qualities, both are dedicated to improving the image of crypto and encouraging mass adoption, which is why these two opposites are more alike than you think.

What Is A Stablecoin?

Many may ask if cryptocurrencies can be stable, especially considering their volatility. Stablecoins are an answer to that question and the concerns of many crypto traders. The currency is fixed to a reserved asset such as a fiat currency or gold. This is done to reduce the volatility cryptos are famous for.

What Is A Meme Coin?

Seemingly the opposite of a stablecoin, a meme coin is often a highly unstable (more unstable than normal currencies) digital asset. Often originating around a meme or animal character, meme tokens are known for their strong communities and extremely fluctuating values.

Stablecoin DAI: Providing Calm

Based on Ethereum, DAI is the fourth largest stablecoin by market capitalization on CoinMarketCap. With over $5 billion in market cap, DAI has been highly sought after.

Managed by Maker Protocol and MakerDAO, which claims to be an ‘unbiased Global Finacial System’. Dai is marketed as an ‘unbiased currency’, and any business or individual may use it.

Its popularity largely stems from its being pegged to the U.S. dollar, its decentralized nature, and its increased stability, which many crypto enthusiasts find comforting considering how volatile the market is.

Despite algorithmic stablecoins experiencing a crash, DAI has managed to stay strong (even after losing $2 billion). This is why it is likely DAI will remain in the long run.

Big Eyes Coin: Providing Cuteness

While Dai has committed to improving the image of crypto by introducing a stable coin, Big Eyes Coin has resorted to various techniques that achieve the same united goal of improving the image of cryptocurrencies.

From having its contract audited by Solidity Finance and proven to be 100% secure, BIG’s team has also been verified by CoinSniper to ensure anti-rug measures are in place and that the project is safe.

The initial liquidity pool will be locked for two years, ensuring that funds are unable to be moved outside of the pool. Furthermore, Big Eyes Coin offers a fresh ecosystem with an NFT market, merch shop, and competitions.

But perhaps the biggest attraction of Big Eyes Coin, which is bringing in crypto beginners, is its emphasis on the environment and charity. With the sole purpose of raising money to save the world’s oceans, Big Eyes Coin is keeping 5% of its total token supply upon release for ocean sanctuaries. Furthermore, it commits to recurring charity donations, including The Fruit Tree Planting Foundation and Sea Shepard.

The Bottom Line

Big Eyes Coin and DAI are different species of cryptocurrencies focused on very different things. Still, they both share the same goal of improving the accessibility of crypto to the wider public.

As the New Year takes its course and people ponder how best to use their money during a global recession, many could turn to these two currencies thanks to their appealing natures.

Tether, USD Coin And Big Eyes Coin: Three Cost-Effective Investments For 2023

0

Tether (USDT), USD Coin (USDC), and Big Eyes Coin (BIG) are three cryptocurrencies worth investing in this year.

To say the cryptocurrency industry has seen better days is a huge understatement. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is priced at $16,830.63, Ethereum is at a mediocre $1,250.68 and Binance is at a modest $256.78.

And considering how much these crypto top dogs were worth back in November 2021, this does not paint a pretty picture for the future of the crypto universe.

However, all hope is not lost. Just because the so-called lucrative coins are going through a tough patch, doesn’t mean investors cannot capitalise on cheaper and more affordable cryptocurrencies on the market.

This includes stablecoins, that naturally do not fluctuate in value and their values are pegged to the US dollar. Besides, exciting and innovative meme coins that are still in presale and promising to give you a lot more bang for your buck.

In such a risky and volatile space, sometimes it is worth investing in coins that are not the most profitable at the start but have the potential to give you a healthy return in the future due to their cost-effective properties.

Tether: The Leading Stablecoin On The Market

Tether is a cryptocurrency with a market cap of over 66 billion, making it the third most popular coin on the planet.

Therefore, wherever you are in the world you can easily purchase Tether and begin your crypto journey. Tether is not going to make you a millionaire on its own but you can use it to invest in other coins like Ripple (XRP), Polkadot (DOT), and Polygon (MATIC).

USD Coin: Another Reputable Stablecoin

USD Coin is the second most popular stablecoin in the world with a market cap of over 44 billion. Like Tether, it maintains a value close to $1 so you are not going to become rich for USD coin alone.

Nevertheless, USD Coin is a great investment for the beginner who wants to get a taste of the crypto industry without flushing all their savings down the toilet.

USD Coin is accepted by a variety of established companies such as Microsoft, Jomashop, and Pacsun so there is no doubting its legitimacy.

Plus, due to being based on the Ethereum blockchain, USD Coin is another cryptocurrency using a proof-of-stake protocol and is less damaging to the environment.

Big Eyes Coin: A Meme Coin With Ambition

Big Eyes Coin is only in stage 7 of presale and yet it has generated over 12 million dollars, appeared on a 3D billboard in Times Square, and secured a Tier 1 CEX Launch for its official release.

And when you consider what Big Eyes Coin is proposing, this is not a surprise. The meme coin is set to transcend the crypto industry by donating to ocean-saving charities, releasing top ten NFTs, and creating a fun-filled community of cat lovers.

Furthermore, Big Eyes Coin is kindly offering the discount code BIGsave322 so investors can start their investment on the front foot.

Final Thoughts

Tether, USD Coin, and Big Eyes Coin are the ideal investments for those who want to get their foot in the door while minimizing risk.

Tether and USD Coin are two renowned stablecoins that are guaranteed to maintain the same value. Meanwhile, Big Eyes Coin is a meme coin with massive potential that is currently very affordable.
