Zainab Shinkafi-Bagudu: Grateful to Leading Ladies Africa for the recognition

Zainab Shinkafi-Bagudu shared a post on LinkedIn:

”A few weeks ago, I was delighted to be named one of the ‘Top 40 Women From Northern Nigeria Redefining Leadership’ and ‘5 Medical Specialists from Northern Nigeria Revolutionizing Global Healthcare’. I am grateful to Leading Ladies Africa for the recognition.

The acknowledgment underscores the importance of female representation and the incredible impact women of different cultural backgrounds can bring to leadership.

I extend my heartfelt congratulations to all the remarkable women on this list. Your dedication and achievements are truly inspiring, and together we are changing the narrative for Northern women. We must work on mentoring and supporting our younger generations. Thank you for championing the progress and empowerment of women globally.
