ilugunboy:

Get outta here Tell me the truth according to you. Why do you like waving aside things that you don't know ..simply because you are not knowledgeable of it?

@afam4eva, if you dont know something dont argue about it, okay! there is FATGBEMS in Berger immediately after BRT pack and there is one in Ibadan too at SANYO bus stop along Lagos Ibadan expressway, so if you dont know something you shout up or ask for more fact about it, thats how to learn more. okay! may Allah grant him Aljanah fdridaos

RIP

Fatgbems is popular in Lagos and some other yoruba areas I can say. Ojota, Dopemu/Pako, Maryland etc. Are few among locations where his filling stations are situated.

expertman: Yes Is True Fatgbem Died This Morning. FATAI GBEMISOLA came to Lime Light in 1992 When He Start campaining For Cheif Mko Abiola. He was Poor until Abiola Used him as a Campaign Manager in The South West. Today he owns Fatgbems Oil, he is also into Michellin Trye Sales. He is a Major Distributor in South west. He also Have Filling Stations in Cotonu. Many across lagos and Ibadan Old Roads. He is a nice Man who spend his money on islamic Movement. May Allah Grant him Fidau Aljanah. Sorry am a christain if i made mistake in the Muslim Things

pls stop this. He wasn't poor. If u don't knw him, he imports tyres from abroad. Infact, he's one of the few you can get any brand of tyre u desire. And he sells originals too. He has some buildings popularly called 'tyre house' in like three states with the abeokuta being the headoffice. So stop saying what u don't knw. I'm not disputing the fact dt being a campaign manager to MKO helped him the more.
What really happened was dt when MKO cheated and riots broke, some people used the opportunity to torch his tyre houses which nearly get him bankrupted. But he was duly compensated by the late MKO and got some other connections.
I knw ds cos i knw him.

For those who close their eyes (sleep) while traveling in & out of Lagos, FATGBEMS is d very 1st petrol station U are bound to come across (2 your right hand side) as U safely drive into Lagos, by Ojodu Berger. RIP, Mr. FATGBEMS!

klax: Can someone tell us more about him because I never heard of him before despite living in Lagos. Whos is this man? Anyway RIP.

he owns over 100 filling stations and businesses.his filling stations adorn most express roads in the country.if you stay in lagos,one of his station is situated along apapa oshodi express way.jakande express to be precise.may his soul rest in peace,amin

idupaul: Never heard of FatGbem petroleum... OP u seem to have overestimated the popularity of the oil firm .. All the same RIP

Fatgbem is easily one of the most popular independent filling stations in the Southwest, if not the most popular sef.
