A 10-year old Nigerian girl, 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.
Referred to as the next Oprah Winfrey by ARISE News, Oduwole is reportedly committed to rebranding Africa by showing the positive things about the continent, and making the case for educating the Girl Child in Africa and Emerging Markets.
She was 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 8 current African Presidents, Africa’s richest person, Aliko Dangote and Tennis super stars Venus and Serena Williams.
That, she believes is one simple way to inspire the African Girl Child, and show the world the need to educate the continent's often forgotten Girl Child, of which Zuriel is one.
