Her career goal is to be a leading voice in the campaign for gender equality within the media industry.

Chika's humanitarian efforts extend to reporting on the plight of impoverished natives in Nigeria's Federal Capital Territory and covering the situation of internally displaced persons (IDPs) in the insurgency-affected North-Eastern part of the country. Her love for human angle stories that foster development is evident in her work, as she skillfully crafts narratives that not only inform but also inspire action and change within the society.
