See the top blogger, Sister Linda Ikeji when she was still a ‘Shango ode’ babe (Many Photos)

Truly, a Nigerian top blogger, sister Linda Ikeji has a story to tell. It is a long journey to success. There is no way she would not have made it in blogging because she was already well known before delving into blogging. Even then, it took sometime for her to become a blogging celebrity. She has identified Bella Naija as her mentor in the blogging business. They raked all campaign adverts funds from top political parties and politicians for the just concluded tumultuous Nigerian general elections but we should not negatively envy them. The stories and pictures below which she put together in 2007 say it all. And for some of us who started blogging recently, we should just be patient and hard-working. We will get there too.
