Blogger Linda Ikeji is celebrated in the August edition of Forbes Magazine

Nigeria’s super blogger, Linda Ikeji, is profiled in the August edition of Forbes Africa magazine. The businesswoman, who is a former model, in the article titled ‘Beauty, Brains and the Business of Blogging’, was adjudged ‘Nigeria’s highest paid blogger’.

“It has been a long struggle for women in business, which is far from over. History even records the first woman to work in an office in Johannesburg. It was in 1894, screens were put up around her because it was not appropriate for her to be seen – more on this in the cover story of the August issue,” Chris Bishop, the Managing Editor for Forbes Africa said.

“This edition also includes the Forbes list of Africa’s most prominent women as well as interviews and inspirational stories of some of the continent’s most powerful woman to date.”
