Oooh, what a little bullion can do

This is how Nigerian girl and grandma, Folorunsho Alakija became one of the 1,000 richest people and one of the 100 most powerful women in the world:

Extended interviews with Hakeem Belo-Osagie

On Electric Power: There is a fundamental difference between telecoms and power, which makes power more complicated. [For power, we have gas supply, generation, transmission, and distribution all run differently] and for the whole system to succeed all four have to succeed.

On Refineries: There are some countries that can do state institutions, and they do them well. We don't.

On Billionaires: I'm very much against [the] notion that the higher you're on the Forbes' list the more respected you should be.
