Peter Mbah Appoints Destiny Etiko SSA on Youth Engagement, Creative Economy

Nollywood actress Destiny Etiko has been appointed Senior Special Assistant (SSA) on Youth Engagement and Creative Economy to Enugu State Governor, Peter Mbah.

The actress announced her new role on social media, with fellow Nollywood star Sarah Martins among the first to congratulate her.

Martins, in an Instagram post, described the appointment as well deserved, writing: “Congratulations my boo. Appointment well deserved. @destinyetikoofficial super happy for you.”

Etiko acknowledged the congratulatory message in the comment section, replying: “My loveeeeee, I appreciate you.”

According to reports, other entertainment personalities, including Ikpechukwu Nweke and Evan Okoro, also congratulated the actress on her appointment.

Etiko, who hails from Udi Local Government Area of Enugu State, rose to prominence after featuring in the 2014 Nollywood film Idemili. She has since appeared in several Nigerian movies and established herself as an actress and filmmaker.

Veteran actress Eucharia Anunobi was also appointed Senior Special Assistant on Women Mobilisation for Enugu North Zone.

The appointments reflect the Enugu State Government’s growing involvement of entertainment personalities in roles connected to the state’s creative industry and public engagement.

Details of Etiko’s specific responsibilities and planned activities in her new role have not yet been publicly outlined.
