He later gained admission to study for his master's at Cleveland State University, USA, and he has been shinning since then.

While in the USA, Emmanuel has won multiple awards and recognitions, dwarfing his initial WAEC failures. He posted some of the awards on his Instagram page, attributing his growth in life to the grace of God.

He said:

"I have been honoured as a Professional Doctoral Fellow by The Across Global Institute of Foreign Languages (AGIFL) for my impactful use of English as a foreign language to create positive changes across the world. My remarkable journey from overcoming significant educational and personal challenges to making significant global impacts in mental health advocacy has earned me these prestigious honours.”
