Hi everyone,

I have been in Africa for the month of November and have reconnected with my history and my roots. I am continually inspired by what Africans are achieving in all walks of life and Folorunsho Alakija is one of those who has not only been a success, but is making a difference in her native Nigeria.

This article from the African Culture site at BellaOnline.com is merely an introduction to this remarkable woman.

Folorunsho Alakija - the wealthiest black woman
Folorunsho Alakija is an inspiration to women around the world. A business woman and philanthropist, she is believed to be worth an estimated $7.3bn (2014), surpassing Oprah Winfrey’s wealth in 2013.
