We don’t have to wonder what the men are doing at Ikoyi Club, Lagos Country Club and all the other top clubs in Nigeria. Everyone knows they wind down, network, seal business deals and the like. Aaah…the life.
The good news is that women can indulge themselves too. There are hangouts for the women to build long-lasting friendships, chit-chat, grow business, get great ideas, endorse partnerships and a whole lot more! What better time to start when you are young and ready to build a life for yourself?
Check out these 5 clubs for the Nigerian woman:
1. GAIA Women’s Club
The clubhouse is located in the heart of Victoria Island, Lagos. It caters to business owners, executives, professionals and creatives who are looking for a place to mingle, network, chill and come up with great business ideas. It was founded by Olatowun Candide-Johnson. It is supported by the likes of Peace Hyde, Tara Fela-Durotoye. According to Bella Naija, GAIA is hoping to bring women from different industries together to connect, socialize, and empower one another in their own comfortable third space fitted out with modern facilities. Now, women can gather and do business together. All you have to do is become a member.
2. Diary of a Naija Girl (DANG)
This right here is quite easy and online. What started as a place for a young girl to express herself and get opinions from others, became a safe haven for women to share their life experiences unashamedly. DANG has gone beyond Instagram posts and now hosts DANG Network on YouTube, where women are encouraged to speak their truth on delicate issues ranging from domestic violence to mental health challenges and surrogacy. It is run by Ifedayo Agoro.
