“The MyEU50 youth competition gave students an opportunity to think about what being an EU citizen means to them. The creativity, experience, and opinions expressed by the students showed their appreciation of Ireland’s 50-year-old membership of the EU. Ms Ochonoma, who describes herself as a young woman who was born in Ireland to immigrant parents who found a new home in the EU, won the top prize for her speech titled “From Hope to Prosperity: Celebrating the EU’s 50-Year Impact on Ireland and Beyond”.
“This little girl, now 22 years old, has had a chance to achieve her dreams, reach her potential and fill her needs. Education protections and equality are rights that the EU has so carefully worked with Ireland to protect,” said Ms Ochonma.
