History
BellaNaija was founded in 2006 by Uche Eze as a time-filling hobby. She started blogging shortly after her graduation from Richard Ivey School of Business, University of Western Ontario, Canada by posting scanned magazine articles, pictures and interviews of Nigeria fashion personalities. She continued this under a disguised identity until she began to have over a million hits every month before she decided to unveil herself to the public.
