Many journalists have gone through such grand experiences in their life for the sake of an honest, real, and unique story. Chika Oduah is one of them. She was able to arrive at the scene of the 2014 kidnapping276 Chibok schoolgirls by Boko Haram. It was such an experience for her to be able to discuss the event with the schoolgirls and their families. It touched many people and created an emotional environment for the public. Oduah focused her work on the people’s stories and the awareness they need, “Her compelling stories focus mainly on the plight of women, children, and orphans.”
