@SekiRaji commented, “She looks so tiny. Congratulations Ogechi. Keep flying high.”

 @themomlife7 said, “Congratulations to her! She did great! To think I took first in a mathematics competition organised by the Enugu council in 1989 and got only 50 naira which my mother appropriated after all my efforts.”

@ebena107 said, ‘I love what you are doing with this handle. Society needs to know that excellence pays. Enough of wealth without enterprise trending. Enough of celebrating rewards for frivolities. Our younger generation needs to hear what you’re preaching.”

@onyinyenympha said, Oge dear. You deserve even more. You have been consistent in your academic performance. I thank the management of Evergreen schools Enugu for this great move.”
