Weeks back, Media entrepreneur Linda Ikeji penned a powerful piece of advice to women on becoming self-dependent without falling victim to the wrong men. The single mother of one advises young ladies to live a successful life rather than relying on the benevolence of a man.
She spoke about how women can dominate and thrive with fearlessness, strength, determination, and grace, as she referenced how she has reached a point in herself where she chose to live according to her terms and have a man with whom she could reciprocate the same luxury.
Actress and filmmaker Funke Akindele had, in a recent interview, lectured Nigerian baddies on the importance of having morals and intelligence. She educated them on showcasing their talents and putting them forth to the world rather than trying to emulate a fake lifestyle on social media.
