Remember Funke Abimbola-Akindolie, the British-Nigerian lawyer whose 22-23 paged CV got people talking?

Well, she joined the likes of Ed Sheeran to be conferred the MBE (Member of the Order of the British Empire) by the future king of England, Prince Charles at the Buckingham Palace yesterday.

The multiple award-winning Nigerian, who is also the founder of the International Women Leader in Life Sciences Network, was honoured because of her numerous contribution to “help diversify the legal profession”.

In 2015 alone, Abimbola-Akindolie was a finalist and a recipient of 10 awards. Some of which includes the Outstanding Woman In Professional Services, Precious Awards; Inspiring Member of the Year, Inclusive Networks Awards and Certificate of Merit, British Citizen Awards, Guardian said.

For years Olufunke Abimbola-Akindolie has worked to help diversify the legal profession. She regularly goes into schools & universities to help inspire the next generation.
