100 Women Who Inspire Us In Our World Today by ijebabe: 2:09pm On Mar 08, 2013 |
The theme of this year’s International Women’s Day is a pledge to end violence and abuse against women. UN research has revealed that about 603 million women worldwide currently face the risk domestic violence. Close to 70 per cent of women face such abuses at some point in their lives. Indeed, violence against women causes more deaths and injury among the global female population (aged 15 to 44) than cancer, malaria, road traffic accidents and war. Some may have achieved wonders with their charity work, while others have simply wowed us on stage and screen but who can deny that they all are inspirational in their own way? This is to celebrate women who have driven a cause one way or the other to stop abuse, violence, abortion, rape, child trafficking, domestic violence against women etc. In no alphabetical order, here are 100 women who inspire us today. Michelle Obama (First Lady, United States of America) Hon. Abike Dabiri Tara Fela-Durotoye (CEO Orekelewa Makeup) Toyosi Akerele (Activist, Youth Educator) Kate Henshaw ( Actress) Kemi Lala-Akindoju (Actress, Activist) Zainab Ikaz (Activist) Tola Onigbanjo (Radio Presenter, Founder Women4Africa) Uche Eze (Founder, Bella Naija) Wana Udobang (Wana Wana ) Ellen Degeneres Esther Ijewere Kalejaiye (Founder, Walk Against Rape Campaign) Oprah Winfrey Tosyn Bucknor ( On Air Personality, Founder- The Genes, Writer) Yinka Davies (Singer, Song writer) Funke Bucknor Obruthe (CEO Zappahire Events) Gbemi Olateru-Olagbegi (Radio Presenter) Serena and Venus Williams Dr. Joe Okei Odumakin ( Human Rights Activist) Jerrilyn Mulbah Joan Okorodudu (CEO Isis Modelling Agency) Josephine Effah-Chukwuma (Founder Project Alert ) Mother Theresa Kathleen Ndongmo Funmi Odegbami Caroline Marsh Precious De Bruin Salha Kaitesi Ida Horner Esther Owuta Onolememen Kemi Williams Folorunsho Alakija Maya Angelou Iyanla Vanzant Onyeka Onwenu TY Bello Joyce Meyers Soneni Gwizi Noerine Kaleeba Nice Nailantei Leng’ete Beka Ntsanwisi Linda Mary Teresa Esther Madud Olufunmilayo Ransome Kuti Linda Ikeji (Blogger, Writer) Moyo Oyatogun Tochi Eze (CEO Selah inspiration) Uche OKoli (CEO Reel Radio Nigeria) Debbie Ogunjobi ( CEO Every Woman) Angela Mirkel – German Prime Minister Late Mrs. Bimbo Odukoya Tolu Oniru ( On Air Personality) Oby Ezekwesili Waje (Nigerian Artist) Conodolezza Rice Susanne Wenger Pastor Nike Adeyemi Hilary Clinton President Dilma Rousseff of Brazil Kimora Lee Simmons Asa (Musician) Toyosi Ogunseye Senator Florence Ita-Giwa Deola Sagoe Bola Shagaya Ibukun Awosika Sarah Blakely Grace Liebkein Malala Yousafzai Betty Irabo Angelina Jolie Arianna Huffington Angeliki Frangou Ory Okolloh Josie Natora Kathryn Kuhlman Ellen Johnson Sirleaf Dr. Bosede Afolabi Stella Damsus Omotola Jalade Ekeinde Joke Silva Chimamanda Ngozi Adiche Bronwell Anthony (Activist) Okonjo Iweala Dora Akinyuli Agatha Amata Funmi Iyanda Oluwayemisi Mafe Tina Fey Remi Tinubu Funke Adejumo Eleanor Roosevelt Anne Sullivan Helen Keller Maria Montessori Halima Abubakar Agnes Baden-Powell Alex Box Emmeline Pakhurst Pastor Folu Adeboye http://olorisupergal.com/happy-international-womens-day-here-are-100-women-who-inspire-us-in-our-world-today/#.UTnb_Bz-GSo 2 Likes

The list make sense! Is Funmi Odegbami on the list Funmi Iyanda? Now my own list. My mother (if she hadn't given birth to me, i wouldn't have added to the list). My Sister. Patience Jonathan- for gladly associating herself with the fellow widows. Hellen Johnson Sirleaf- first west african female president. Bianca Ojukwu- nigerian ambassador to spain. HID Awolowo- behind a successful man, there is always a wonderful woman. Annie Macauley- for gladly marrying 2face after his mass production of babies. 6 Likes |
