A Nigerian girl, 10-year old Zuriel Oduwole
has made history as the youngest person ever
to be interviewed on popular magazine Forbes.
The interview with the award winning
documentary film maker, conference speaker
and writer is featured in the August 2013
edition of Forbes Africa.
Touted by some as the next Larry King, and
ARISE News as the next Oprah Winfrey,
Oduwole is reportedly committed to rebrand
Africa by showing the positive things in about
the continent, and making the case for
education the Girl Child in Africa and Emerging
Markets.
As an invited guest to the recent African Union
50th anniversary celebrations in Ethiopia, she
has in her quest of pursuing her goal
interviewed leading African business, political,
and sports personalities, including eight
current African Presidents, Africa’s richest
person, Aliko Dangote and Tennis super stars
Venus and Serena Williams.
Zuriel (which is Hebrew for God is my Rock)
believes if she can walk a mile, then there are
girls who on seeing her work and progress
made, would walk a mile and half.
That, she believes is one simple way to inspire
the African Girl Child, and show the world the
need to educate the continents often forgotten
Girl Child, of which Zuriel is one.
