Having a family that supports you after a divorce, having access to money/stable job, having a support system, having an education all of these are privileges that many women don’t have in case of divorce. Even in Dakar so imagine in some of the more remote villages in Senegal

“My name is Leslie Ikwere and I’m a 2023 beneficiary of the Tony Elumelu Foundation grant. With the support of the Tony Elumelu Foundation, I resigned from my job to fully focus on my business and last week I was at a bootcamp where I gave a presentation about using banana stem fibers to make paper bags; which is what I got the grant for. Right now, I have about 7 full-time employees.” - Leslie Ikwere, 2023 #TEFAlumni from Nigeria. It is always such a wholesome moment when our Founder Tony O. Elumelu (@TonyOElumelu) bumps into a Tony Elumelu entrepreneur in any part of the world. Well done, Leslie. Keep flying the #TEF flag high! #EmpoweredByTEF #TEFImpact #TEF2025

Today the King of Qatar, his Royal Highness Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Al Thani conferred me with the International Anti-Corruption Excellence Award. Growing up, injustice taught me that corruption is systemic & must be confronted for our societies to be progressive.

A dog was diagnosed with depression after suffering a miscarriage, and vets decided that working with kids at a local school would be good for her. She has never been happier.
