No Woman Made The Forbes 40 Richest People In Africa List! by Shalomdee(f): 10:33am On Nov 30, 2011
It pains me so much that among the 40 people in Africa who made the Forbes list this year, a woman wasn't among them.

Does this mean our African women are not doing any significant thing? Women counterparts in foreign countries are making significant strides in their areas of expertise. African women really need to wake up from their slumber. We are now in a different age. African women need to stop thinking only of their families and start undertaking challenging ventures. Enough of this mediocrity, African women, please arise.

Women in Africa often combine their wealth with their husband, so they may not be so pronounced like in the west.

My prayers are that they would rise like their counterparts in the west.

Am yet to meet or see an African woman (most especially a Nigerian) that would combine her wealth with her husband

Apparently there's a limit to how rich one can become with 'bottom power'. That pretty much explains everything.
