Episode 48 - Margaret Ekpo : An African Amazon

Excuse My African

In This Episode:

I am going to introduce to you, a woman who made a remarkable impact in Nigeria. Many of you may have heard of her in passing, but unfortunately, you may not be aware of all the amazing things she did and how she shaped Nigeria as we know it today. She stood for what she believed in and became a hero of our time.

Her name is Margaret Ekpo, and I am honoring her as our African Amazon of the month.
