- By Lanre Solarin<br />
Nothing beats pushing hard to break mental boundaries in order to express yourself<br />
using your gifts and talents. This was the case with Uzoamaka Aniunoh, a creative<br />
writer and actress who, after passing up several opportunities due to self-doubt,<br />
decided to go public with her art, sharing creative stories and participating in programs.<br />
In an interview with The Spark in July 2017, Emem Isong, screenwriter and award winning<br />
movie producer, gave off a scholarship at her academy – Royal Arts Academy – for<br />
anyone interested in acting, directing or screenwriting. On seeing this empowerment<br />
opportunity, Uzoamaka gave it her all by submitting her application, amongst several<br />
other young people like her looking to achieve success.<br />
Uzoamaka emerged the best, and in November, 2017, had the opportunity to meet her<br />
benefactor, Emem Isong. A big congratulations to her, and to every youth striving to make<br />
a difference.<br />
Apply now and get empowered. See page 33 for details.<br />
