The book has received positive feedback from some of the biggest names across sectors from Business, Finance, Media and Entertainment. Alhaji Aliko Dangote, The Dangote Group Chairman and CEO said that The Smart Money Woman is “an entertaining way to learn about money. Ushering a new narrative of Africa, specifically of the African woman in the 21st century; her perspective, her ambitions, her journey, her flaws and all, but wholly hers”.
Uche Pedro of BellaNaija, Betty Irabor of Genevieve Magazine and Tara Fela-Durotoye of House of Tara all commended her ability to tell a great, hilarious story while driving home the strong message about the changes to be made in the relationship African women have with money.
“A journey through personal finance written from a truly African context by a gifted young woman who seeks to reposition and redefine the way we think about the subject”, was the review given by the President of the Nigerian Stock Exchange, Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede.
