“I watched a lot of Nigeria movies back in Dublin. My mum used to buy  them. I watch movies that star Genevieve, Omotola  and others, they motivate me. I always want to be just like them. I really love acting, and I love presenting interviews on radio,” Emmanuella said.

On what would give her the leverage in the entertainment industry, she said:” It’s all about your personality and character because once you have the quality, you have it. If you don’t have it, there is nothing you can do about it. I have the talent and personality which I think will go a long way. I have done a lot of acting and stage production in Dublin, which is even one of the hardest parts of the job.”

During her reign as a beauty queen, Emmanuella embarked on a campaign against diabetes. She chose to help patients of the ailment because her father was once a victim. She partnered with the Diabetic Federation of Ireland.
