It seemed just like yesterday when the first edition of Betty Irabor’s inspired Genevieve Magazine hit the newsstands in Nigeria. Yesterday marked the 12th anniversary of this wonderful high-quality magazine that changed the face of entertainment, lifestyle and celebrity print media in the country.
Betty Irabor, the Magazine’s Founder/Editor-in-Chief and Soni Irabor’s wife took to Twitter to share some of her thoughts on her journey to the great heights the magazine has reached.
Congratulations to an inspiring woman and more grease to your elbows!
