WOMEN I ADMIRE

Hi all,

As a woman, i am blithe when i see other women succeed in their endeavours. Be it as wives, mothers, professionals etc. It just makes me so proud to be a woman. Most people have people they look up to like mentors or role models. For me i have neither. I just admire the following women and they inspire me in different ways.

JADA PINKETT SMITH
Now this is one fine sister. She is an embodiment of beauty,talent, charisma and strength. I admire her so much for her ability to joggle it all. A thriving career and one of the most successful marriages in Hollywood. Jada Has managed to keep her marriage of ten years steamier than ever. It is no secret that this woman is the rock of her marriage and Hollywood's greatest step mum.



DR. DORA AKUNYILI
Dr. Akunyili is the revered Director General of National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) in Nigeria. Her assertive and astute character has finally brought some sanity to NAFDAC. Despite numerous threats and even assassination attempts, this amazon has refused to be perturbed and continues to implement policies that eradicates bogus drugs from the Nigerian market. Now this is one force to be reckoned with in Nigeria today and for years to come.



MO'NIQUE
Now whats not to admire? This is one sister that has refused to budge to the battle of the bulge. Mo'nique is a woman who knows what she wants. In spite of being in a profession where thin is in , she has refused to conform to those standards. She has carved a niche for herself in the entertainment industry and has proved that big is beautiful. Mo'nique continues to inspire plus size women all over the world.






JOKE SILVA
Joke Silva is a household name in Nigeria. She is one of the the most talented and eloquent women Nigeria has produced. I admire her carriage and the respect she commands as an actress. She is also a devoted wife and mother who has managed to have a balance in her life.





OPRAH WINFREY
Do I really need to say anything? I love this woman so much. She makes me dream big dreams and know for sure they could come true. From humble beginnings, Miss Winfrey has become the biggest name in talk show. Sitting atop a multi-billion conglomerate, her benevolence is beyond words. She is one of the most selfless and humble people i know.
