(2. Entrepreneurial female icon) Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti I’m Nigerian and this phenomenal woman is one of my heroes, Although she is more known for her activism and being the mother of Fela, it all started in the market place where she helped women entrepreneurs with their businesses. Her feminism lead to the creation of The Abeokuta women’s union (AWU) a movement that aided Kuti to promote women’s rights to education, employment and to political participation. #modcloth #makeitwork
