Our Story

106 families and counting

Women of Vision ( WofV ) and Nigerian Descent Network Organization ( NDNWO ) were founded by Grace Obuseh in 2021, after she shared her dream and vision with some women of Nigerian descent who are pioneers of the group.

Her dream and vision are to form a networking organization for young Nigerians in Diaspora. An organization that gives them the opportunity to network, connect, meet, engage, learn as well as promote Nigerian languages, cultures, traditions and heritage.

The Cofounders, Catherine Cadmus, Chiege Kalu Okwara and Lisa Sido went the extra mile in all ways to see that the Vision is realized. As of today, we are 101 women/families strong and counting working together to achieve the Vision.
