Minna Amadi is a mature woman, of Eastern Nigerian region, Imo State to be precise.  She has worked within the administrative framework for many decades and is currently a Senior Administrative staff member with one of the UK’s National Health Service Trust. She has undertaken many administrative roles with different organisations but her skill does not only end with administration–she is conversant with financial administration – she has also trained and gained a Level 3 in Personal Counselling Skills, which has given her the skills of showing empathy and understanding towards others as well as the ability to focus on other people’s needs in order to help them move forward positively. Currently Minna Amadi is undertaking a Business Administrative Diploma course to further enhance her skills and knowledge…Always eager to expand her brain cells.

After being approached by the CEO and Founder of UNEOIF, Ugoeze Ngozi Emekobum, who shared her vision and mission with Minna Amadi, who having been highly impressed by the foundations vision had no choice but to become a full fletched member. Minna thought of how she could fully support the UNEOIF cause, so she chose to volunteer her administrative skills and services to the foundation, to help it achieve and reach its heights in supporting the less privileged in the communities.
