Abiola

Abiola is a gender-neutral name of Nigerian origin. In the Yoruban language, it means “born into wealth” or “born into success.” Moshood Abiola was a Nigerian politician and philanthropist who is viewed in Nigeria as an important figure. Born into poverty, he became a successful businessman, donated money towards countless development projects, and almost became president in 1993. Unfortunately, a military dictator imprisoned him before this could happen, but he is still remembered in Nigeria as a champion of democracy. With such a name, meaning, and role model, baby Abiola is destined to be rich in spirit, a little legend with a heart of gold.
