Had to rep to celebrate my baby sister's magical wedding🇳🇬 ❤️❤️ #Modi26
Thank you so much, our dear Chair and my big sister @aoteh.
What a privilege to have served under your leadership at @royafrisoc🙏🏽❤️ #Governance #Africa #Leadership – at Camberwell, London
@obijamesuk My sincere appreciation As I shared at the @royafrisoc Winter drinks, and at our Board meeting last week, you are an exemplary Board member worthy of emulation. You were sacrificial, professional, and hard working. You are indeed a perfect example of a 4C leader - a leader with #character, #compassion, #competence and #courage.
Last night at the @royafrisoc Winter Party - closing a chapter as Trustee after 6 years on its Board.
Grateful beyond words for this leader beside me: @aoteh - our Chair, my big sister for life, greatest mentor, guide & champion🧡
Not goodbye. Always love. Always #Africa🙏🏼🌍❤️
Met my favourite author, @ChimamandaReal at the @CNN Global Perspectives on Africa event!
As a fellow Igbo girl, we gisted in Igbo (of course 😄), laughed, and she had me break down my full name - Obinne Ezewuzie! 🇳🇬
Ezigbo nwanne m, what a joy! ✨🙌🏽❤️

Now is the time to connect & do business in Africa/ 🌍Booming youth population, 30% world’s mineral resources, 67% of arable land. We must invest in infrastructure, skills & connectivity to unlock full potential- @NOIweala @amanpour @CNN

#CNNGlobalPerspectives on Africa 🇳🇬🌍
A powerful conversation b/w Dr @NOIweala, DG of the @wto & @amanpour on innovation, growth and why #Africa is a central player in the century ahead. @NOIweala ended by saying how proud she is to be Nigerian & African! 👊🏼#Leadership #Nigeria – at London, England
Inspired by time with our new Interim Director & CEO at @royafrisoc, Stella Okuzu, whose passion for Africa & commitment to impact is already shaping bold conversations - and more to come with the incredible Society team. 🌍

Happy Nigerian Independence Day! 🇳🇬❤️
I haven't spent much time on here in recent months, but had to share my LinkedIn video post and wish my fellow Nigerian brothers, sisters and everyone a very Happy Nigerian Independence Day!🇳🇬❤️
I even threw in a bit of my Naija language!
...and then our Adora surprised her mama by secretly escaping to capture a video of our Naija brothers at @Gothia_Cup!
All the teams did so well and made us SO PROUD!💪🏽⚽️💚🤍💚 #football #Nigeria
Oh, the joy of being part of this unforgettable @Gothia_Cup Opening Ceremony with our @hillyfieldersfc U-14 Ospreys football team! #womensfootball #football #Lionesses #SuperFalcons – at Camberwell, London

What joy to chaperone and witness our goalkeeper daughter, Adora, and her U-14 @hillyfieldersfc team as they took part in this year’s @Gothia_Cup competition in Sweden. #ProudMama #womensfootball

We just had Ash Wednesday, the start of #Lent, a 40-day period of reflection, sacrifice & renewal observed by many #Christians. It mirrors Jesus’ time in the wilderness where he fasted, faced challenges & deepened his purpose.
Wishing all who observe a meaningful Lenten season. – at London, England
