How did modelling start??
Onyemaechi:
Modelling started for me professionally in 2011. A friend of my brother won elite model look 2012. My brother also went for arise fashion week and was picked. Then i said to myself, if this two people can do it then i can do better. He started teaching me how to walk, I started working out to keep fit. In 2013, he found out about Nigeria's next super model. The day he found out was the day the casting was to hold. He called me and told me 2 start coming for d casting, i got ready and told my mum about it. She refused to let me go, she said i should stay back home and babysit my nephew. I was so angry, I cried the whole day and i was like is it that she does not want me to be somebody. Then she called me and told me God's time is the best. She asked me to wait till next year. But to the glory of God, here i am, the winner of Nigeria's Next Super Model 2014. That was how it started for me.

Fabfairies:
When you finally got picked, did you face any challenge in the boot camp??
Onyemaechi:
Yes, a lot, especially from the girls. There was no bootcamp. I was fought by some of the girls, I was laughed at, was made fun of, I even had an accident when going for the final casting. Lots of them, but i believe every thing happened for a reason.

Who was your greatest threat amongst the contestants??
