Stephanie Busari Biography

Stephanie Busari born in Lagos, Nigeria on August 12, 1977 is a multi-award winning Nigerian journalist and editor at CNN Worldwide. She heads up CNN’s Nigeria bureau where she pioneered CNN’s first digital and multiplatform bureau as well as reports on-air for CNN International.

As a passionate and adept public speaker, Stephanie is regularly invited to share her insights and moderate panels; she has spoken at TEDGlobal, UN Women, Said Business School, Oxford and UNESCO among others. Stephanie oversees CNN Africa’s digital editorial and operational strategy, crafting a new narrative for Africa and reeling off the continent’s change makers and innovators.

In April 2016, she exclusively obtained the “proof of life” video that showed that the missing Chibok schoolgirls were still alive.

This video helped to kick-start negotiations with Boko Haram that later secured the release of more than 100 of the kidnapped schoolgirls. This graduate of Leeds Trinity University is a native Yoruba speaker, fluent French and is currently learning Hausa.
