Nigerian Real estate mogul, Udo Maryanne Okonjo has revealed that her 25-year-old daughter, Chidi, is building her first investment property in Bali, Indonesia.
Chidi is an entrepreneur who worked for a tech company in New York as a business analyst before she ventured into entrepreneurship. According to her, she is traveling the world while building global businesses.
The 25 year old was born in Canada and raised in Nigeria and South Africa.
She had a question and answer session on her Instagram page recently and an inquisitive asked if she took out a loan to finance the housing project. She responded in the negative and said she paid it out of her own pocket.
Her proud mother, Mrs Okonjo, took to Facebook to share a glimpse of the house which is still under construction and challenged women to create the right income streams and start investing in Real Estate.
She wrote,
“I couldn’t be more proud! Daughter 1 is building her first investment property. Who says women can’t command wealth? And who says it can’t start as early as you decide to take charge of your life.
Choosing to challenge more women to create the right income streams and get onto the property ladder.
PS. Please note that gender biases are still in place all over the world. Women tend to spend more especially on property and construction because they aren’t considered as knowledgeable. So be sure to have knowledgeable advocates/advisors on your side if needed.”
