An exclusive interview with Slami Onah Ifeanyi the Mr. Anambra Universe winner,
First of all congratulation on winning the Mr. Anambra Universe, so what’s your name? Am Slami Onah Ifeanyi
So how does it feel winning the contest? To be honest it feels great being the winner of Mr. Anambra Universe 2014
Did the thought of winning it ever cross your mind? Yeah sure, I had the thought because I never settle for less and I was giving it my best…
That’s really nice to know, what actually inspired you to contest for the title? Well before now I have been in a national pageant, though I didn’t win but I came up to top10, I still felt like a winner because of the experience and exposure that I got.
So what actually inspired me to contest is the passion that I have for modeling and my dreams of becoming a world class model someday, so wen I got to had about Mr. Anambra Universe 2014, I said to myself despite the fact that I have been to a national pageant, sometimes one needs a lower step to achieve a greater height, so I saw Mr. Anambra Universe as a platform to become whatever I have ever dreamt to be.
Well said, if you had lost the contest, how would you have taking it? It wouldn’t have stopped me from pushing my dreams, it’s not about how many times u failed but how many times tried
That’s good to hear from you, now that you have won the contest, what next? Getting ready to make my state proud at the National level (Mr. Universe Nigeria 2015) While getting ready for it am still working on my pet project.
What do you mean by pet project? It’s what I want to do for the state as Mr. Anambra Universe.
First is educational project (room to read). Aimed at providing sound and basic education for the public schools system in Anambra State by building and refurbishment of liberies in public schools across the state, which would be a Catalyst for our pupils to imbibe the reading culture.
Secondly is talent project (Anambra got talent). The sole aim of this project is to promote Entrepreneurship and to lay a platform for the upcoming arts (youths) to exploit their talents and to erase the negative thoughts about Anamberians (citizens of Anambra state) not being talented and creative…
That’s really very touching, you really dream big and that’s good to know, so what’s your social life like? I just have normal social life, not too loud but always fun
Good to know, defiantly a guy like you must have girlfriend right? Lol yeah I do
Was she in support of your contest? Yeah sure… She gave maximum support
She must be a sweet lady right? Finally…indeed she is.
Now that you have won the Mr. Anambra universe title, ladies would defiantly flock around you allot, how do you plan to control that? Lol well it takes a man to be faithful
Very funny, talking about faithful, are you faithful? Laughs out loud* Yeah sure am doing my best to be
