UPFRONT WITH MUNACHI: Guests At The Book Launch And Website Unveiling

BY DANIELLE ANENE

MMunachi Mbonu, arguably one of Nigeria's youngest authors, hosted a book launch event at the Raddison Hotel on July 14th. Her website was also launched on this special occasion. The event began at 10 a.m., with distinguished guests from a variety of reputable organizations in attendance. Among the many distinguished guests in attendance were Joke Silva, Noble Igwe, and Mr. Nonso Okplala. This would be Munachi's fourth book, following her previous release in 2019. In "Pearl," Munachi expertly tells the story of a young girl and her school experiences. This book is intended for readers aged 13 and up. Munachi's mission is to raise mental health awareness and advocate for those who need it.

Munachi's mother could be seen bustling around the event, ensuring that the guests were well taken care of. A radiant glow radiated from her, a clear reflection of her satisfaction and pride as a mother. This was especially evident when she took the stage to deliver her speech, thanking her daughter for making her so proud and for being the best daughter anyone could ask for. When asked how she managed to balance school and writing, Munachi acknowledged her mother, who instilled discipline in her and taught her the value of prioritizing tasks.

Some well-known people took the stage to read excerpts from the book. Olive Emodi, a media personality, hosted the event, which was attended by students from Munachi's school, who were able to interact with the anchor through games and interactive question sessions.

Following the reading, an official website dedicated to providing free access to literature was launched.

The event concluded with photo opportunities, interaction with the young author, and refreshments. It is truly amazing to see the brilliant minds of the younger generation, and Munachi is a prime example of this.
