Be careful of what you live for posterity. If you can't give your best, don't step out because what you recorded is always going to be there for long… - Onyeka Onwenu

I probably would have been somewhere buying and selling like every other woman who is trying to survive. If I didn't have education, it would still have been the same thing. I can buy and sell at all levels, considerably.

I have learnt to keep my privacy out of the public purview especially in discussions with journalists. But there is nothing hidden in my life. I live a very open life. But I decided from day one not to discuss my family on the pages of newspapers, because it is not fair to them. They do not have the opportunity to present themselves the way they would have liked to. And that is not fair.

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.
