It seems igbo ladies appear to have taken the lead in the next economic revolution for the igbos, with pioneering roles in world bank, software, internet related businesses etc while this is in the overall interest and good of the igbo race ,it might lead to a social disfunctionality .

By the way igbo women pioneered the resistance that paved the way for independence now they are pioneering the next frontier for igbo economic emergence

She is Igbo so what do you expect. Igbo and smartness are like...abeg who get that Zuma meme?cheesy

I don't like her but I must give her that credit of being hard-working, smart and decisive.

Linda did put in lots of work to get to where she is today. She is indeed a beauty with a brain unlike one brainless undignified lazy female charlatan somewhere that is busy begging jimoh Ibrahim to be her sugar daddy.

Linda Ikeja is undoubtedly the richest celebrity or socialite in Nigeria. I pity wizkid when he boasted to be richer than her. Linda is planets away from their league. Wizkid/Davido has not even had such deals talk more of turning them down. When Davido had his $1m deal, the whole of Africa didn't hear word for weeks. They'd be all over social media like:

Don't flatter Seeun, he has got nothing on Linda. Nairaland doesn't grow, seun has no business strategy and doesn't even rebrand NL. Linda is everything Seeun is not. Seeun is successful though.

@ bolded, Was it Linda that publicised the news? Yall just hate on successfil females for no reason. if Seun actually rejected an offer as huge as this, it would be on the news.

Linda Ekeji represents a hardworking African lady,a woman of substance and an inspiration to younger African girls...they 'i can do it spirit',and not they ones that moves around the streets of major cities,offering their body to men.
God is your strength Linda!

Seun actually turned down $1 million some years back for naira land. But I think he got around the same amount for Nairalist.

There's nothing wrong with someone being proud of a successful person being from his place. If Linda I keep was from my village, I will advertise her everyday. You are Igbo, so be proud of her.

This guy is ignorant. Linda Ikeji is not a musician, so she has no business travelling like wizkid and David do but she way richer than these two.

in as much as I agree that Linda has more business strategy on social media,I disagree on the others.You do not know seun personally,if you do,you won't say all this,seun is weird,I mean really weird!!...his personal satisfaction comes before making money....if seun wants to make NL more profitable than it is now,he will.But you can believe anything you want though....it is your opinion!!!

But linda should know that having money is not the only prerequisite to run an online business. Due diligence e needs to be followed. She has made very wrong calls recently with LIS and Linda Ikeji Music and I wonder if she has people giving her advice.
