Can somebody tell me how to beat riven as akali? I build Seeker's armguard but I'm still not strong enough.

Riven is hard.
-Let her push and farm under tower, she won't be willing to attack you under tower, so you don't have to be scared of getting killed in lane. It's better to lose CS and EXP than to feed a lot. -Try to muster enough gold for a revolver's/arm guard. (I always rush revolvers, but that's me). -Wait until you're 6 and have all three charges. -Wittle Riven down using rotations. Expend 2 charges for 1 rotation (Q > R > AA > Q > AA, R back to a minion to disengage) -Sustain back with your revolvers/pots. -When you are certain you can burst Riven and kill her, do it.
Sometimes you can bait out a Riven ult. Use this to your advantage. When you harass, make sure that enemy minions are far away so that when you dash, Riven can't catch up.
Pots help a lot.
