“Now, back to my class” Mrs. Ayodele, dragged a plastic armchair to the front of the class.Some students grumbled.“Let me hear from you Aisha, you’ve been mute. What’s on?”“good afternoon class. I wanna talk about The Ballad of Rocky Rontal. This was a publication made in 2016 by my uncle.”“ pretty astonishing hmmm. Class put a round of applause for Aisha. She’s got a great uncle.”The class did, a bit grudgingly..“THE FIRST TIME I met Rocky Rontal, I asked him to describe his childhood. I watched him stiffen, like someone preparing for the sharp poke of a needle. He rubbed a palm over his close-cropped black hair. It was a long moment before he spoke. “I didn’t have one,” he said finally.It was late autumn in the Bay Area, and he’d come in from Stockton to meet me. The gloomy skies had cleared, and outside everything was slick and shiny and glowing in the bright sunshine. Rocky, by contrast, was all darkness. He’s in his early 50s, wiry, compact, and reserved. He wore all black,

Now, the boldest boy in the class; Samson rose and walked to the front of the class. No greetings, no informalities. He went straight to the point.“Today, I’m going to be talking about HUMAN RIGHTS; IN INDIA AND DIASPORA.”Everyone stared.“A right is described as an entitlement or justified claim to a certain kind of positive and negative treatment from others, to support from others or non-interference from others. In other words, a right is something to which every individual in the community is morally permitted, and for which that community is entitled to disrespect or compulsorily remove anything that stands in the way of even a single individual getting it.

“Good afternoon class” Juwa saluted.“Hmmm,” the class buzzed, gradually smiles changed to bursts of laughter. They knew he loved football, and anything he’s got to say today has to be related to it.“class, today id be speaking on the topic HOOLIGANISM IN FOOTBALL.”Everyone clapped for him, “quite an astonishing intro” Mrs. Ayodele said. They all knew there’s a high prob Juwa’s speech would be very interesting.

“I’m so sorry this essay presentation class is taking so long. I really want to listen to all essays you guys got there so you could improve. Keinde, what do you have for us?”“I want to talk on WHAT MOTIVATES YOU?Have you ever wondered what drives you, to want to become a better person? That feeling you get when you want to accomplish something that seems out of reach, that feeling that makes you do dumb things that you know you should not do, but do it anyway so a certain someone would like you better. That feeling that made you want to work harder in class to get that gold star up by your name, or that fear of being punished if you did not work harder. Well each one of those feelings is a different type of motivation. What is motivation? “Motivation is internal and external factors that stimulate desire and energy in people to be continually interested in and committed to a job, role, or subject, and to exert persistent effort in attaining a goal.

Good afternoon ma.” Tayo greeted.“Good afternoon darling. God bless you, you are well cultured enough.”“Thanks ma. Can I proceed with my essay ma?” tayo asked.“Kindly,” Mrs. ayodele replied.The class cast a close gaze.“Okay, this afternoon, class, I’m gonna talk about SPECIAL REWARDS THAT CAN MOTIVATE YOUR EMPLOYEES.“You have to get rewarded in the soul and the wallet.

Motivation-the willingness to exert oneself, consequent of the afore-implied intrinsic and extrinsic incentives, is fundamental to the prosperity of individuals, groups, organizations and society; for absent of this, there exists a lack of satisfaction, productivity and willpower that ultimately leads to inefficiency, dissatisfaction and management constraints. It is the aim of this paper to contest traditional views, by asserting that pay is of equal importance as job-design in achieving motivation-which will in turn provide an appreciation that both job-d
