Ex-First Lady of the United States Michelle Obama paid a visit to Njideka Akunyili Crosby at her studio.
US-based Njideka, one of the daughters of the late NAFDAC boss Dora Akunyili, made headlines when her 2017 botanical painting, titled “Bush Babies,” sold for $3.4 million USD.
Her sister, Chidiogo, shared the photo with the caption: So this just happened! Casual Saturday in the Akunyili Crosby family. When Michelle Obama pays a visit to your studio!? Me to my sister, “if it could come up, make sure to tell her about the book.”
