2000 Students | 3 Stories | 1 Day. Babcock University set to come alive this November with the 'Invincible 2'.

Invincible 2 – a motivational event designed for public and private university students is set to hold in Babcock University this November. Spearheaded by Iheanyi Ejiogu, Peak Performance Coach, Conference Speaker, Author, Radio Host, and Pastor, the event w‎ill take place at the BBS Auditorium, Babcock University‎ on November 16th 2014 at 3pm. 
To be invincible is not to “not be seen” alone. It actually refers to becoming an Enigma such that every one around you can sense that there’s is a seed of greatness finding expression within and around your life, starting from school, hence the focus of the event which is Universities.
There is power in story telling and that’s why INVINCIBLE doesn’t come to teach or preach at the students, but rather to tell them stories of normal human beings who have excelled against all odds and are still quite relatively young too. This current event will feature along side Iheanyi EJIOGU,
Steve Harris – Speaker, Life Strategist, Author, UN Ambassador, Mgt.Consultant, etc.
Bankole Williams – Life Coach, Author, Consultant, Convene “Live Your Dreams Africa” Benji The Joke – Comedian 16 Oniru – Comedian, ex-student of Babcock University And an amazing Graphics and Media team streaming live globally, and putting up graphic multimedia – Desihost Solutions and Lewa Media.
 NOTE: Admission is absolutely FREE! The ultimate goal of INVINCIBLE is that after every event, the student walk out of that auditorium saying “I am truly INVINCIBLE” and go back to take full responsibility for their lives.
2015 hopes to see an INVINCBLE National tour where Universities all over the country will also have the INVINCIBLE Experience, right on their own campuses, and with many more of their favorite celebrities from all works of life. We hope to have corporate sponsorships for these events.
 Don’t miss INVINCIBLE, either physically or electronically. Tell young people everywhere.
 INVINCIBLE – Inspire. Motivate. Educate. Empower.
