Australian writer, Nikki Rowe, once wrote that: “No one knows what you have been through or what your pretty little eyes have seen, but I can reassure you; whatever you have conquered, it shines through your mind.”
Courage is not a candidate of colour or gender. It is a fan of a heart that is ready to dare anything. History has proved that, and shown it is only kind to those who harbour no fear, conquered territories and rose above fear, regardless of gender.
Anie ifeoma Amalonye is founder of Ify Autos, a global company that deals in importation of vehicles into Nigeria. The CEO, who is married with children, failed to jump on the bandwagon of the female folks who chose an easy way out of life.
Though she grew up to see her industrious mother demonstrate resourcefulness, the Ify Autos boss took the entrepreneurial spirit she inherited from her mother to an unimaginable level; running a cross-border business, with presence in Canada and Nigeria.

“I do a lot of research to be abreast with what is happening in the world of automobile and with frequent feedbacks from my customers I know what is trending in the automobile world,” stated the amazon running Ify Autos.
Speaking further, Anie Ifeoma Amalonye said, “being an entrepreneur has helped me to identify so many opportunities in the world today as regards wealth creation .As an Entrepreneur I identify opportunities in every situation because when there is a need there is an opportunity.
“One of the biggest lessons I have learnt as an entrepreneur is that the buisness environment is very dynamic so it requires courage hence those who are afraid to make mistakes do not venture into business,” added the Ify Autos boss.
On how she was able to overcome the usual difficult beginnings that characterises young businesses, the Ify Autos’ visioner replied: “the day I got order for a full container of cars (4 cars) in my early beginning of ifyautos. I screamed and wept in joy when I got credit notification.”
