MO ABUDU – REWRITING THE AFRICAN MEDIA STORY

When you talk about African women changing the global narrative, Mo Abudu is a name that instantly comes to mind. Media mogul, entrepreneur, and culture shaper, Mo has consistently proven that African stories are not just valuable but world-class.

As the driving force behind EbonyLife Media, Mo has built one of Africa’s most influential media brands, producing content that resonates globally. Her vision has now expanded beyond Africa, with the launch of a UK branch of EbonyLife, positioning African storytelling at the heart of international conversations.

Mo’s influence isn’t just in television and film; it’s in creating platforms that celebrate African creativity. At the 3rd edition of Lagos Canvas, EbonyLife’s flagship cultural event, Mo hosted the Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, for an unforgettable evening at The Afrobeat Lagos.

The event brought together Lagos’ brightest creative talents in music, film, fashion, and art—proof that the city is a cultural powerhouse. With conversations, performances, and networking, the night highlighted exactly what Mo stands for: building bridges between Africa and the world through creativity.

Whether she’s developing global partnerships or hosting world leaders, Mo Abudu continues to set the bar for what is possible when African women lead boldly.

For us at Blanck, she’s not just our Woman Crush Wednesday—she’s the woman redefining African excellence.
