The example of her life was a teaching tool because she showed that she could stand as a woman on her own…be a contributing member of the community. - Onyeka Onwenu

NTA used 'Iyi Ogogo' to open and close their station for eight years, but they didn't pay me a kobo. They didn't even ask my permission. When I asked, they barred me from being shown on NTA and I went on hunger strike. They felt they were doing me a favour by using my music. Ben Bruce said 'Don't touch that lady. I don't want to see her face, I don't want to hear her music on my station'. And I said no, it wasn't his station, that NTA belonged to the nation. This was in 2000.

I am just an ordinary human being, a woman trying to live her life in the best way possible; dealing with the issues of life, making contributions to the society and to leave this place better than I met it. Hopefully, I can achieve that even at a personal level, because if you look at the country as a whole, the country has deteriorated. So I probably will not leave it better than I met it, unfortunately.

Small minds, narrow minds can't comprehend a great spirit when they see it. When they insist in stereotyping you, even when the evidence is there, look at them carefully, they are lacking some sort of professionalism.
