Four Nigerians will son embark on an all-expenses-paid trip to Dubai after winning the 2021 Vision and Success Opportunity Challenge. They are Ms. Soruchi Nwanodi, Mr. Samuel Onyeocha, Mr. Melford Ekene, and Ms. Deborah Ibaningo – all Rivers State students who scaled all the hurdles to success. The competition gave an opportunity for 10 winners, but only four met the required standards.

The winners are to be rewarded with a group trip to Dubai comprising an Economy Roundtrip Flight Ticket (origination Port Harcourt), Hotel Accommodation for six nights (includes breakfast/lunch/dinner), Entry Permit (Visa), Covid tests, Ground Transportation in Dubai, Airport Transfer in Dubai and Operational/Leisure Tours. The projected travel date is in September 2021.

The Vision and Success Opportunity Challenge is a forum created by Princewill Trust, where ambitious young leaders pitch ideas and strategies for furthering their vision and success in life. The challenge is designed to help current Nigerian university undergraduates and postgraduates imagine realistic career models and investigate how to shift from concept to reality while still pursuing their studies.

Prince Tonye Princewill, founder and initiator of Princewills Trust, had this to say: “It took a huge effort by Stella Fubara-Obinwa and her team in Dubai Tourism and Nneka Oduah and her team at CLR to pull this off. For that, I am truly grateful. We would have loved to have more people go, but the standards are high and this aspect will never be compromised. What the team at Princewills Trust will do is continue to support initiatives like this, with a view to further promoting the next generation of our Rivers youths.

“Thank you Dubai Tourism, thank you CLR, thank you to my team and big congratulations to the winners. I know that they will make us all, very, very proud.”

News Express reports that the exercise is in partnership with Dubai Tourism Corporation for Commerce Marketing under its Education Tourism Initiative and CLR Education Consulting.
