For those of us who don't know who Linda Ikeji is, she is Nigeria's top celebrity blogger.
She it is who has redefined blogging as far as this side of the heavens is concerned. Linda has remained a pace-setter of sorts and trailblazer in her line. You can immediately infer how powerful her blog has become because oft times people copy her works verbatim - literally word for word! Word has it that are readers [viewers] are in the 7-digit range [choi, again].
Today she turns 33 and i anticipate a lot of media mentions for her later in the day.
There are few reasons i am excited about this personality [trust me na, i ain't 'famzing'] which i will share briefly - with the hope that it inspires you of course!
One. Linda Ikeji is a female. That for me is something every female out there should remember. Needless to say, society has been found culpable of projecting females in a lower light than they deserve. It seems that a distorted and unenlightened view exist about women in this society of ours. They are relegated to the background, assumed to be good enough to be married, excellent only in housekeeping and assigned trivial roles. As such, a female dominating in her chosen field is something worth celebrating and emulating. Definitely, not all females will become bloggers but her success should be able to spur others of her gender into their own success stories. I believe there is more to a woman than just "lips, hips and fingertips" - a woman is an Amazing Amazon. Thus she must be treated as one. We should help in maximizing their potentials not seeing them as 'objects' to be 'devoured'..
