CNN International’s African Voices Changemakers will this weekend revisit immediate past episodes of the series, a monthly highlight of the 30 minute-magazine programme.
This month’s compilation edition features three outstanding Africans who serve as inspiration to different people on the continent and beyond. The guests include Nigerian-born media mogul, Mo Abudu, a Ghanaian chef and food stylist, Elijah Amoo Addo, and multi-award-winning Illustrator, Karabo Poppy Molestane from South Africa.

After working as Human Resources consultant in London and later in Nigeria, 56-year-old Mosunmola Abudu, popularly called Mo Abudu, hit the limelight with her talk show, Moments with Mo, on which she brought many issues to lime light through interviews.
Abudu consolidated her position in the media industry in 2006 when she inaugurated her own TV channel, EbonyLife Television. The Television channel became instant success and is received by Pan – African viewers in over 49 countries across Africa, UK and the Caribbean.
The second guest, Addo, is the founder of Food for All Africa, a non-profit social enterprise that operates West Africa’s first community food support centre. He successfully feeds thousands of vulnerable children in Ghana through food recovery and redistribution.
The third guest, Molestane is renowned as a Nike shoe designer and basketball court murals artist. She is also a multi-award-winning Illustrator, graphic designer and street artist wholly committed to preservation of her cultural heritage. On the international level, she has worked with the Wall Street and on Netflix’s Strong Black Lead season.
