There have been news reports naming another Nigerian, Dipo Awojide (Ogbeni Dipo), as being the first top voice on LinkedIn. Press houses would have discovered this slight error if there was a little more research done or by asking LinkedIn directly.

The real gist is that there's a business and Africa champion on LinkedIn, John-Paul Iwuoha who is actually the first Nigerian to get on the top voice.

John-Paul Iwuoha research on Africa's potential is one of the most widely read online and offline. He's a published author too.
