Uche Ann Encourages Young Nigerians to Embrace Skills

Nigeria’s entrepreneurial landscape is blessed with trailblazers who are reshaping industries and inspiring the next generation. One of such outstanding figures is Ms. Uche Ann, a dynamic serial entrepreneur who has successfully founded and nurtured three thriving brands across diverse sectors.

She is the visionary behind Avyo Food & Drink, a fast-rising food brand; Belzkim World, a fashion powerhouse redefining style and elegance; and Velstand Global, a real estate and facility management company dedicated to providing premium housing and property solutions.

Through these ventures, Ann has proven that with passion, creativity, and discipline, Nigerians can thrive in multiple industries and build lasting legacies.

But beyond her impressive entrepreneurial achievements, Ann is on a mission to impact lives. In her recent message to Nigerian youths, she emphasised the urgent need to embrace self-development and skills acquisition.

“Every young Nigerian must look within, discover their inner strength, and harness it. The reality is that paid jobs are limited, but opportunities through skills are unlimited. A skill today can open doors to financial independence tomorrow. If you want to stand out, invest in yourself by learning a skill,” says Ann

Her message is not just a call to action—it is a movement. In a time where unemployment challenges loom large, she believes that skill acquisition is the surest pathway to empowerment, financial freedom, and nation-building.

As an inspiring role model, she continues to use her story to encourage young Nigerians to take bold steps, become innovative, and turn their talents into thriving businesses.

Ann’s life and work embody resilience, creativity, and the belief that every young person has what it takes to succeed. With her passion for growth and empowerment, she remains a beacon of hope and a voice of encouragement for Nigeria’s future leaders.
