The city of ABUJA and in fact Nigerians in the entrepreneurship and small business space felt the great positive impact of the omalivingshow on the 18th of November 2023 as the 6th edition of the OMALIVINGSHOW UNSUNG HEROES AWARD AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP CONFERENCE 2023 took place.
The theme of this 6th edition was PROCESS, building to last.
Omalivingshow limited since inception in 2015 has been undaunted in preaching and trying to instill positive values in the youths and everyone in the society.
The theme of the brand is THE YOUTHS, OUR VALUES AND THE SOCIETY!
Everything the brand does revolves around this and encouraging people to pass through the right processes in order to build to lost is a way of inculcating the right values in them.
OMALIVINGSHOW was founded and has been led by phenomenal and outstanding young Nigerian woman, MARILYN OMA ANONA-USOBUNANDU and for years, she has remained resilient, consistent and tenacious in ensuring that the dream of the brand is kept alive and that the yearly goals are met.
This year’s edition according to guests and participants is the best so far.
Attendance was rich, the venue was filled with no space left.
Yearly, due to the enthusiasm to make authentic and tangible positive and transformational impact in the society… Marilyn Oma Anona- Usobunandu strives to upgrade the event by adding something of great value as one of its contents.
OMALIVINGSHOW is a unique social and media brand and its focus is on human capacity development and Human Resources.
Since 2019, the brand actively began soft skills trainings, human capacity development sessions and holistic well being classes in a bid to enhance capacity, performance and also ensure that young people are well all round.
Because OMALIVINGSHOW genuinely cares, Marilyn thought of a way to ensure that the participants of the capacity development sessions are not just abandoned after the sessions but that there is followup to ensure accountability and results.
For this reason, the OMALIVINGSHOW COMMUNITY was birthed in June 2023 and launched in August 2023.
This community is made up of participants/alumni of the OMALIVINGSHOW HUMAN CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT CENTRE.
So an addition to this year’s edition of the OMALIVINGSHOW UNSUNG HEROES AWARD AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP CONFERENCE is empowering community members through a contest that will produce the face of omalivingshow. The winner is empowered to enhance and build their dream.
In this maiden edition of FACE OF OMALIVINGSHOW 2023, the winner Pharm. Nsikan SUNDAY, won the sum of 900,000 Naira with a pledge of 5 million Naira interest free loan from Mr. Olajide Abiola CEO of smart residence ABUJA.

And she has a slot for paid internship with smart residences ABUJA if and when she is interested.
