A new project called Extraordinary Woman (EW) has been launched by KEA Enterprise. The platform was set up to inform, communicate with and educate women from different spheres of the society while also celebrating women doing extraordinary things in their little ways.
At the unveiling on August 1, 2019, in Bodija, Ibadan, Oyo State, the Project Coordinator, Mrs Kemi Irinoye, explained that, “Extraordinary Woman was created for women. The women in Nigeria today are under immense pressure to measure up to many expectations. Being an extraordinary woman for me means being yourself without altering who you are to fit society’s standards.”
“We have created an avenue for all women that encourages them to be themselves, chase their dreams and live their lives how they desire without seeking society’s approval,” added Mrs Irinoye.
During the event, she also announced that over the next couple of months, the Extraordinary Woman crew would be traveling on to different parts of Nigeria looking for and showcasing women who within their own little spaces have been extraordinary.
The organisation is also asking that members of the public should recommend any woman they think is doing something extraordinary so that Extraordinary Woman Enterprise can tell their story.
Furthermore, KEA Enterprise is inviting women and the general public to join the community of women who will be positive change-makers by following the activities of Extraordinary Woman on social Media Platforms using @extraordinarywomanng on Instagram, Facebook and YouTube.
Mrs Kemi Irinoye is the General Manager for Libra Multimedia LTD, a movie producing and promotion company. She is also the Managing Director of KEA Corporate Hospitality Services, an enterprise that is vast in food catering and event logistics for different types of occasions.
