Another WONDERFUL story, BWC: Nigerian billionaire unseats Oprah as the richest black woman (511 hits)

Good Morning, Ladies,
I wanted to share another wonderful story of black women empowerment. This is Mrs. Folorunsho Alakija, aka The RICHEST BLACK WOMAN IN THE WORLD. (WOW!)

I really love listening to this woman's story. This isn't ALL of it but just a snippet on how she began her career working as a secretary at the bank and rose to prominent success as a banker. This woman is fantastic and I hope you guys will listen to her story. Not a whole lot of hits on YouTube (She should have at least 500K but that's just me >)) This was posted in 2013 so she is probably worth more today as far as Net asset.
For more information on Ms. Alakija, please go to:

HERE'S TO YOUR SUCCESS,

La Tasha

"Move over, Oprah! Nigerian billionaire unseats TV queen as the richest black woman in the world with $7.3b oil fortune
Mother-of-four, Folorunsho Alakija, 62, started her career as a secretary in a bank then studied fashion and launched a label but her big break was oil
In 1993, her company, Famfa Oil, was awarded an oil prospecting license, which later became OML 127, one of Nigeria's most prolific oil blocks
The company owns a 60 per cent stake in the block, valued at around $7.3 billion, Ventures Africa reports
According to Forbes, Oprah Winfrey is worth $2.9 billion"
