Video: Watch Toolz interview Linda Ikeji on Ndani TV “The Juice”



Linda Ikeji reveals how she started blogging, the stories that made her blog popular, her recent face-off with Richard Mofe Damijo (RMD) and lots more.

Highlights
  • Linda Ikeji‘s blog is a multi-million Naira business.
  • She started off as a career model from about 1998-2006 but stopped because she felt she was too old for the business.
  • Her first encounter of a blog was on Bella Naija when an article about her was a feature; she quickly became a regular reader after that and fell in love with the interactive nature of the platform.
  • She started her blog in 2006 but didn’t start making money until 2010.
  • A few controversial stories really got her a lot of media attention, with run-ins with the likes of Richard Mofe-Damijo (RMD) and Toke Makinwa.
  • Using her blog as a platform, she was able to get a girl, Blessing Effiong, who was in Kiri Kiri Prison for four years without trial for allegedly stealing a phone, out of prison.
  • She doesn’t have any staff and handles her blog solely by herself.
Enjoy and share.
