ROLE MODEL OF THE WEEK, VIVIAN OGUCHE OF SILVERBIRD TELEVISION, LAGOS, NIGERIA

My name is Vivian Oguche, a Christian from Kogi State, Nigeria and I work for Silverbird TV, Lagos.

I studied Biochemistry in school but six months after my national youth service corp, NYSC (it’s mandatory in Nigeria, except if you apply for an exemption), I was at home (Kogi), listening to the radio when I heard about an audition for presenters in Joy FM, Otukpo, Benue State.

It was a station owned by the then President of the Senate, David Mark and was very popular in the north central region where I lived.

I applied for the job and out of about one hundred and twenty applicants, myself and two others were chosen.

That was the beginning of my journey as a broadcaster and I practically learnt on the job.

Not too long after, I was nominated by the station for a training by the then BBC trust and that was how I met one of my great teachers, Aro Leonard.

From Joy FM,  I went on to serve at Cosmo FM, to Vision FM, to Loveworldplus TV, to Galaxy TV, to Rose FM and then to Silverbird TV where I currently work as a news anchor/environment correspondent.

It has been a most adventurous career.

ROLE MODEL OF THE WEEK, DIENABA LAMPTEY – FOUNDER OF ESSENTIALS BY ESME

I am Dienaba, the founder of Essentials by Esmé.

Essentials by Esmé is an online retailer specialising in the supply of experience and gift boxes made up with products from small wellness and homeware businesses, responsible and environmentally engaged suppliers and producers.

Essentials by Esmé cashes in on the concept of “treat yourself” by creating a distinctive “experience” to the client through ready-made boxes. The client also has the option of creating her/his own experience by creating a box.

This project was born during the first lockdown period.

Before the Coronavirus crisis I was living life at full speed, working crazy hours and spending an unbelievable amount of time commuting into central London. So being able to have a break and go through a deep reflection about my life and what I really wanted to do were life changing for me.

I could also spend more time with my family.

I started to make some themed boxes to send to my family and friends and it was so heartening to see how happy they were to receive them. My whole experience during the lockdown sowed the seeds for Essentials by Esmé!

Essentials by Esmé’s values are responsible commitment, quality, environment protection, sustainability and ethics.
