What’s so special about women being an MD

Modified: first to comment, yay!😀

If you ask 80 million Nigerian Girls to name At least 2 female MD/CEO in Nigeria.

98.9 % of them will fail woefully

But ask them to name 1 Korean movie actor.
They will name 12 Korean actors for you

Ok na

Nice

I love brainy women

Nice one

No surprised here. I know the list will be dominated by Yoruba women. What else would anyone expect from the most educated people from black Africa?

Just like they dominated the banking and financial sector, same way with insurance, manufacturing, fashion, entertainment, ICT & tech start ups, to mention but a few.

West side, best side. A ju ara wa lọ, ijakadi kọ.

Ykc2:
most educated people that can't produce power bank or battery powered fan ,the most educated people in world yet dey follow other nigeria rush go India wheen they are sick,you have any electric or electronic devise your using invented by yoruba person?

You might want to goggle these two names for a start. Silas Adekunle and Oluyinka Olutoye.

Bytheway, my comment is to appreciate the Yorubas, why does that upset you? What has it got to do with you? A case of inferiority complex or baseless obsession with the Yorubas.

Good one
Congratulations to Adaora Umeoji.

We equally need more Nigerian Female billionaires

I have been observing this tribal superiority war on this forum.

It is totally counter-productive and divisive.

Imagine a Scottish man claiming superiority over a Welsh... "nonsensical" to say the least.

More worrisome is that this baseless narrow-minded fight for superiority is always between two great ethnic groups in Nigeria...It is a big shame.

The big question is "can Africans see beyond their limitations, be their brother's keeper, talk progressively and compete economically with the rest of the world?". Instead we are fighting for which ethnic group has the most female CEOs or which country has the best jollof rice.

Some people say our biggest challenge is our diversity...nah, that's easily our greatest strength.

Tell me...who thinks of tribe or ethnic differences when it comes to football or sport generally?.

Africa has leadership crisis ...that's all.

Haven't you noticed that the elite and greedy politicians do not consider ethnicity when it comes to amassing generational wealth or looting the country dry. They easily come together silently and intentionally to steal our common wealth. While for an average african, his/her best hope for a brighter future is to japa.

Be wise and break the chains of mental slavery and deceitful conditioning.

Shalom!.

This is the benefits of Awolowo Education, Yoruba women have the best education and empowerment in Nigeria

Check ICT na Yoruba women full there.

Check the entertainment industry na Yoruba women full there.

Check any brothel close to you in Nigeria, you know the people that full there

Just say Yoruba women shattering banking

There’s something about Yoruba ladies. They are so smart, beautiful, hardworking and will still make the best wives. They can their men!
Yorubas can sponsor their daughters to any level of education, and the ladies are equally very very hardworking.

Pls I’m not trying to set up a tribal case here. It’s just an iration we have to it. And we have to thank the culture for that, the culture values women and remains among the few cultures in Africa that allowed women to hold leadership positions in the palace.

APC ers will not like this

Hope this set ain't wicked , because e dey their blood.

Make I call their house help to confirm
