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.
