While some may advocate for leaving the past behind, Olele emphasized that certain initiatives from 2024 have laid the groundwork for her plans to make a significant impact this year, particularly in empowering women and fostering meaningful collaborations.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Some may suggest we completely shut the door to last year. For me, some activities last year serve as the foundation that will shape the critical part of my 2025 plans. One is involvement with purposeful women-led activities,&#8221; Olele stated.<\/p>\n<p>Her efforts included a week in December dedicated to initiatives aligned with her vision. Among them was her collaboration with Olori Atuwatse III, Queen Consort of the Warri Kingdom, on the <em>Weelevate Africa<\/em> project. This initiative hosted a dinner themed &#8220;Women Allying Women: Strengthening Bonds for a Brighter Future,&#8221; moderated by renowned journalist Stephanie Busari. The event explored strategies for empowering women constructively across Africa.<img decoding=\"async\" id=\"ember632\" class=\"ivm-view-attr__img--centered ivm-view-attr__img--aspect-fill feed-shared-image-viewer__image evi-image lazy-image ember-view\" src=\"https:\/\/media.licdn.com\/dms\/image\/v2\/D4D22AQFqe86XV1MgFg\/feedshare-shrink_1280\/B4DZQuEB9.HMAo-\/0\/1735939599123?e=1740009600&amp;v=beta&amp;t=8TGijhBKv8NUowp5nZQNydgXuA9aAlz3MoXbu_X5xOQ\" alt=\"No alt text provided for this image\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Olele also contributed as a panelist at the 13th <em>Inspiring Woman<\/em> series event, convened by Kemi Ajumobi.
