Uzoebo Rachael Uchechi

 

Project participant in Nigeria

 

Uzoebo Rachael Uchechi was born in Lagos Island Maternity on the 26th of June 1977, a native of Imo state, in the eastern part of Nigeria, also the third child in a family of six. 
My writing career started, as far back as childhood days. I had my primary and secondary education in Lagos Nigeria. I read every available book ranging from novels, magazines to African literature. I can still remember one African literature by Obi Egbuna the Madness of Didi I read while in primary six.  I started listening to a programme (Straight from the heart) on Ray power radio; I was so excited and encouraged the day my first story was read. 
I had my National and Higher diploma education from the University of Ibadan and Federal University of technology Akure respectively. I longed to see my writing career move to the next level. I never relented on my writing career over the years.
