She holds a Master’s degree in early childhood education and began her professional journey with a background in journalism after earning a degree in Mass Communication.

Nkechi Katherine Ezeka (Kate Obodo) shares, “'School Drives Me'... is an incredible true story of a six-year-old smart girl who loves school so much and would always want to talk about every bit of her experiences at school. But she doesn’t like getting ready for school every morning. Routine chores like brushing her teeth, bathing, and dressing up are obstacles. But the memories of the good times she had at school made her look forward to returning there. Many kids like her have a passion for school, but they get quickly weary of going to the four walls of learning to face similar situations.

“As parents, it is essential to encourage the kids facing this dilemma to embrace getting ready for school and more challenging things in life.”
