Joy is the Founder of the Miss Nigeria USA Organization, which was established to raise the profile of the Nigerian-American woman and to expand her opportunities by creating a platform for her to share her vision with the world.She is also the Founder of “Empower 4 Change Inc.,’ a Non-Profit organization with a mission to supplement the educational needs of children in rural Nigeria by implementing a modern Learning and Computer Center in schools in those regions.
Joy has been able to push past her comfort zone to realize these accomplishments because she stands on the shoulders of the giants who have paved the way for her. She aspires to- just like them- pave the way for the young girls coming behind.
Good for her.

ReplyDeleteGood for you Joy.
ReplyDeleteHow do you stylishly not allow people touch your belly? I'm very old fashioned and don't appreciate everybody placing focuz on my stomach (in Falz' voice)
Good job.
ReplyDeleteThanks Stella for even posting about her, I know she's not the type going around granting interviews as the Founder of Miss Nigeria USA thats why most people don't about her. but its funny how People always want to tear this girl down, i wonder when Nigerians will start appreciating people who are doing great things in the community. Anonymous 02.05 she wasnt arrested for theft or anything, it was immigration reasons which has been dissolved and that friend you speak about is Mary Ebele who happens to be jealous of her accomplishments thats why she released her mug shot. Again this was 3 years ago before you people even found out about it she was living her life and her case was over with immigration.
ReplyDeleteI had to ask her myself what happened when i saw the mugshot and i used to be friends with mary ebele before we fell out as well. How about we appreciate her for doing what you aren't doing, instead of bringing up the case of her mugshot.
who mugshot don epp?
Respect. She's doing good. We love her for it.
