Linda
Ikeji recently started a tour round secondary schools in Lagos State. This is
an offshoot of her “I’d Rather Be Self-made-man Project”. The project is
basically to share her message which she has defined as “telling girls to
believe more in themselves, work hard and never be discouraged no matter how
hard it gets.” She further says that she hopes that in the next 5,10,15 years,
there will be many more female entrepreneurs and self-made billionaire business
women.
She
started her tour with Yinkyem Schools and Bosworth College located in the
Mafoluku area of Lagos to share her message to the SS 2 and 3 girls of the
schools. Linda said she believes this is the age when girls of this age need to
be guided as they navigate through their various paths in life. She said the
feeling of been an inspiration to 15,16 years old girls is indescribable and
that the reception from the girls have been amazing.
Below
are pictures from her tour.
We at Under40Achiever sincerely wish to congratulate Linda Ikeji on the launch of this project and wish her many more accomplishments.
