Without A University Degree, I Became A Billionaire - Mrs Folorunsho Alakija Reveals

Folorunso Alakija is one of Africa's richest woman and richest Nigerian woman. She is an Entrepreneur, a business tycoon per excellence. Recently she made a startling revelation many of us does not know.

The woman Billionaire disclosed that she was able to achieve greatness in life even without a University degree.

The beautiful Folorunso Alakija decided to share this information via her Instagram and also disclosed that she is the 8th child in her family of about 52 children.

See what she shared:

"I would like to encourage you on my encounter with the Glory of God. 

It happened almost 27 years ago when I gave my life to Christ at the age of 40 and my life has not been the same ever since, I pray your life too, will experience a total turn around. 

I was born almost 67 years ago, into a large and illustrious polygamous Muslim family as number 8 out of 52 children through a father who had 8 wives.

Back then large families were common, but what was unusual was that I was one of the very first few Nigerian children who left it's shores to go and study abroad at such a tender age of 7. 

Even at that age, I knew I could not afford to let my family down cause I was seen as an ambassador.

My desire was to study law but my Daddy did not believe in investing in girls at that time.

Today, I have no university degree, but God's glory lifted me up and I have received numerous Honorary Doctorate Degrees at home and abroad.

All of what you now see today has taken almost two and a half decades, so I am not an overnight success. On the contrary. Through God's grace, I am a blood bought totally forgiven, absolutely redeemed, heaven bound child of God.

I have had to make sacrifices like everyone else, faced challenges but never given up.

I have not compromised myself, my values or my faith.

GLORY BE TO GOD."
