What about that toy maker in London?

There’s a Nigerian version of the Barbie doll, and it’s currently poised to take the United States by storm.

Created by Nigerian entrepreneur Taofick Okoya in 2007, the toy line features African dolls with different hair textures and skin tones ranging from light to dark. And the best part? They’re all rocking the latest in contemporary African fashions, with vibrant wax print patterned dresses and pants.

The “Queens of Africa” doll line is already popular in Nigeria and throughout the African continent — in 2014 the dolls outsold Mattel in the Nigerian market. Now, Okyoya has announced that in addition to meeting with potential American distributors, he will be taking the dolls on a “Coming to America” tour throughout the United States between May and July, with stops in Atlanta, New York, and Chicago scheduled.


According to Forbes, Okoya said he entered the world of doll-making after his young daughter expressed to him the desire to be white. The conception of the dolls, therefore, is to celebrate African beauty with the following motto: “Empowering the African girl child.”

And the Queens of Africa line isn’t stopping just at dolls. Okoya and his team have also added an educational book series under the brand that teaches self-confidence and cultural pride.

Hopefully, the dolls will be on toy store shelves in America and across the world soon. Until then, they can be purchased via Amazon.

Watch a video of Taofick Okoya discussing the “Queens of Africa” dolls below.

Please show us where the engine block is being machined.
Shown us the windscreen manufacturing section and process.
Show us the moulds that produces the different body parts.
Tire and wheel manufacture too.

Can you explain to us how many parts are manufactured in Innoson's factory and what parts are imported? And who does the actual manufacturing, Igbo technicians or Chinese technicians embedded in the factory?

If not, they are just as good as PAN or Elizade's JAC.

Enough of all these welding of frame metals and then you jump to a finished vehicle.

Dumbass, just answer the simple question.

kn23h:



Innoson is an assemble plant....... manufacture kini? They put together imported foreign parts. Ibos don't have the brain to manufacture anything.

hilroy:


Do you mean their brains need this?

kn23h:


Go back and read my previous post. Stop asking foolish question.

aragonchuks:

hey why you sounding like quarreling or something ?

Realman87:
Guys, until I see yolobas post something significant WHOLLY MANUFACTURED in YOLOBALAND by YOLOBARS, I will continue to assert that yolobars produce NOTHING. So all these your antics wont work for me. Better understand that.

Give me something REAL, TECHNICAL, showing SKILLS and INGENUITY, then I will BOW. Or else, continue FOOLING yourself.

Fineman87:
Afonjas show me your product.

Realman87:


At the last valuation, it was worth N80. But why are yolobars arguing. Firstbank, GTB are NOT yoloba owned banks. I dont care who founded it, once the banks went Public, they became NIGERIAN owned. The management could go anytime but the bank remains. Give us yoloba owned technological manufacturing outfits

kn23h:




Brilliant!!! I expect envious Ibos who can never achieve 10% of what this woman has achieved to come here and say nonsense.

aragonchuks:
