My name is Aniegbo Onyedikachi, a native of Nomeh in Enugu
and a graduate of Enugu State University of Science and Technology. Currently crowned and serving “ADA OHANEZE ENUGU STATE”
I thank God for the wonderful privilege and blessings he bestowed on me and
my special thanks goes to the President General of OhanaezeNdi Igbo ( Chief
Gary Enwo-Igariwe), The project team, the organizers and Ohanaezein general for
this opportunity and wonderful platform which was set to motivate the youths
and to promote Igbo culture and the need to always embrace and represent our
culture everywhere we go and never to let Igbo heritage and legacies be swept
under the carpet.
Being a model has been fun and challenging experience for
me. I have been in the industry for over four years and the road is full of
challenges. But have come to realize that the ability to overcome those challenges
has made me stronger and to become who I am today. i have worked very hard and
determined in the past years and by the grace of God, today I am privileged to
be crowned “ADA OHANEZE ENUGU STATE”, the title and crown which I clinched last
year through hard work and determination.
Though one crown down, but I have
never lost focus because my dreams is still big and I shall never rest until I
reach my goals.
My advice to the upcoming models is to bear inmind that the
road to success never comes easy, because there are loads and lots of
challenges along the line which could tend to bring you down.
Lately, so many young girls have lost their dignity and
prestige out of desperation of being a model, celebrity and superstar. While
some are being sexually harassed or abused on many occasions because of what
they call “payback”, others call it “scratch my back and I scratch yours”,
because someone feels he has the power (politically or monetarily) to elevate
you or place you where you desire.
The industry has turned to money hunting and money fetching
affairs, whereby countless number of girls would be demanded to pay huge sum
just to be featured in musical video, magazines or movies out of desperation of
being a superstar or get noticed.
