Ain't surprise, just like her virtuous mother. May God bless her and family for the great work her mother did for our country. Dora Akunyili and Chief Gani Fawehimi are my eternal role models. 13 Likes 2 Shares |

Who are these anonymous buyers that keep snapping up her works? I hope looted funds are not being laundered? My take o. If it's too good to be true, it probably is. An unknown artist breaking all permutations? 5 Likes 2 Shares |

Not a big deal, she's just lucky. Let her bring that work to Nigeria and watch people price it for less than 100k… Btw, you make it look like it is the most expensive in the history of art it just an evening sale Nobody should quote me… |

Nukualofa:Stupid Bigot. Just one person from the Igbo race achieved a great feat, you now generalize... But when one person pushes drugs you will accuse people of generalizing. You are Igbo, what have you achieved? Why are you pulling this country backward? 13 Likes 1 Share |
