Hygeia Nigeria Limited is a healthcare group, which has been active in Nigeria for over 27 years. It was founded by Prof. Adeyemo Elebute and Prof. Mrs. Oyinade Elebute, in 1984. Hygeia is the largest healthcare provider in Nigeria, and provides medical care through 4 distinct world-class organizations: Lagoon Hospitals, Hygeia HMO, Hygeia Community Health Care and Hygeia Foundation.





Hygeia is currently involved in the management of hospitals and work site clinics, through the Lagoon Hospitals Group. Hygeia expanded to provide health insurance, through Hygeia HMO (a wholly owned subsidiary of Hygeia Nigeria Limited), and Hygeia Community Health Care, a donor-funded initiative that aims to improve access to quality healthcare to low income groups in Nigeria. Through the Hygeia Nigeria Limited Foundation, the company builds capacity for the medical personnel in and beyond its provider network.



Through these four companies, Hygeia is able to deliver primary, secondary and tertiary healthcare to the Nigerian population. In 2016, the founders of Hygeia Group, Prof. Adeyemo Elebute and Prof. Mrs. Oyinade Elebute, sold part of its shares, in the Lagoon Hospital Group to CIEL Healthcare Africa Limited, a foreign pan-African healthcare company. This led to a change in the board structure. The International Finance Corporation (IFC), the private sector arm of the World Bank Group, has led a group of investors to make a $66.8 million (N13.3 billion) investment in Hygeia Nigeria Limited, Nigeria’s leading private healthcare provider.



Lagoon Hospitals Group is the 1st Hospital in Sub-Saharan Africa, to earn accreditation from Joint Commission International (JCI), a US based international endorser for excellence in clinical practices in patient care and safety. Hygeia HMO one of its subsidiaries, is run by Mrs. Fola Laoye the daughter of the founders, Prof & Prof (Mrs.) Elebute.



They acquired another leading healthcare centre recently, the prestigious Goldcross Hospital located in the highbrow Ikoyi area of Lagos. The acquisition also includes Gold Cross MRI Diagnostics located in Ikeja, a fully operational diagnostic centre with MRI, CT Scan and other diagnostics facilities. Established in 1989, Gold Cross Hospital over the last 25 years has risen to become one of the leading private medical facilities in Nigeria. It was established by Dr Ladi Okuboyejo.

VATEBRA, a new technology company positioned as the backbone of major industries in Nigeria and beyond has unveiled its new corporate identity. Formerly known as Fleet Technologies Limited, VATEBRA was recently launched at the Grand Ball Room of the Eko Hotel & Suites, Victoria Island, Lagos amidst pomp and pageantry.

Speaking as the guest speaker of the event, Dr. Doyin Salami of the Lagos Business School who delivered a lecture titled: Beyond Now-Nigeria without Oil, Prospect for Technology and Innovation said Nigeria need Information Communication Technology (ICT) to drive the much desired national development we all crave.

According to Dr. Salami, “Technology has become arguably, the fastest growing sector in Nigeria. In 2016 alone, ICT accounted for 10% of the total Nigerian Revenue, the highest in a decade and half.”

The erudite scholar added that recently, Nigeria ranked 121 out of 148 in the Global Innovation Index. With this in mind, he said Nigeria needs to create necessary infrastructures to accelerate technological innovations if truly the country is serious about matching up with the pace of growth and development around the world. He also, noted that the launch of VATEBRA is a great step towards achieving technological innovation in Africa.

The high point of the event was the transition of the old Fleet Technologies corporate logo to a new, dynamic and futuristic global brand identity called VATEBRA, which means backbone. With the emergence of VATEBRA therefore, the economy of Sub Saharan Africa now has a backbone upon which it can ride.

Mr. Kunle Akinniran, Managing Director of the company, in his welcome speech stated that, “as a company, we have seen the evolution of thoughts and ideas. Ideas that simplify the way we conduct business to how our students register for examinations and check their results, we have seen how the mobile device has become the first and last touch point for virtually every young person in Nigeria today.”

He also explained that as one of Nigeria’s most innovative ICT companies, VATEBRA has been at the forefront of championing innovative ICT solutions that have helped automate many manual processes both in government and private organizations.

On the part of the Deputy Managing Director of company, Mr. Mike Aigbe, the organization is just getting started. “It is a common knowledge that we as a nation depend on a mono source of revenue. The current plummeting oil prices and the high level of volatility in that sector continue to strain our economic prosperity. We must begin to explore means of converting our social-capital, creative- capital and human-capital for economic prosperity. Above all, seek ways to convert the opportunities available in technology and innovation to solutions that benefit our people, he said.

The event attracted influential personalities from federal government Agencies, multinational bodies and regulatory institutions like Registrar/CEO, NABTEB, Dr. Olatunde Aworanti; Registrar, West African Examination Council (WAEC), Dr Iyi Uwadiae, The Chief Executive of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Mr. Boboye Oyeyemi, Chairman of Chams Group, Demola Aladekomo, Founder and Chairman Phillips Consulting, Mr. Folusho Phillips, Dr. Peju Adenusi (MD, Hygeia HMO Limited) and Mr. Niyi Yusuf (Country Manager, Accenture Nigeria) amongst other notable figures.

This sums up the stvpidity I suspected about you guys all along. You should first comprehend the truth that Igbos employ and provide foods on the table of more yorubas than yorubas do for themselves first before you think of even making such an obnoxious claim as yours and if are honest enough you would admit openely not just in your heart and then come here to deny(what you do best). Thank God you mentioned Fidelity&Diamond bank(Igbo owned) as having less Igbo employees according to you, which means there is integration of other ethnicities which yorubas are one of and should be thankful for, all we need is a simple 'thank you my masters' not ungratefulness.

Meet 22-year-old Christopher ‘King’ Bowofade the OAU dropout who built million-dollar hedge fund
naij.com Aug 16, 2017 10:06 AM
A hedge fund company is an organisation that pools capital from investors and invest it in a several assets. It is hard to get people to put their money in anything that does not guarantee profit and it is even harder for young man who is a school dropout.

However, young Nigerian man identified as Christopher King Bowofade has surprised the world after he built a N600 million hedge fund company.

The 22-year-old who is a dropout of Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) built his company in less than two years.

Bowofade’s hedge fund company Better Days Investment (BTD) buys and sells futures and options on behalf of 7,902 individual investors.

Like every other businessman, Bowofade has had his share of challenges. He was rejected to study Economics twice, first as a secondary school leaver and as an Ordinary Diploma Holder.

In 2012, the young man graduated as the second best in his Conservation Science and Tourism class with a 4.41 Grade Point Average (GPA).

After his direct-entry admission into OAU to study Economics, Bowofade quickly fell in love with financial marketing, forex, futures, options and binary options.

A friend of his from Conservation Science and Tourism class, Johnson Alabi urged him to start a company and became one of the earliest investors in BTD.

With his knowledge in website designing and graphics he built the company website and they started the company. The first investors were mainly students willing to earn extra money.

In 2015, Bowofade and Alabi started out with N1 million from twenty investors and as word spread more investors joined the company.

They were so focused on the company in their 200 level that they neglected school work and ended up with low grades. Alabi had a GPA of 2.6 while Bowofade had a 1.9.

In 2016, investors started to lose interest in the company after the challenges of the Mavrodi Mundial Moneybox (MMM) affected many Nigerians.

Bowofade said: “This was depleting our capital so much that it challenged the company’s sustainability.”

More troubles came for the young entrepreneur after he parted ways with his COO Alabi due to misunderstandings. Some of his best student-staff also left him and he was forced to sack some.

The genius decided to freeze the fund and meet up with some of his investors based in Lagos state. He organised an Investor Conference in February of this year to ask investors who had exposure of up to N30 million in BTD to trust him.

Although, Bowofade did not graduate from Obafemi Awolowo University, he would join up with the school’s Enterperneurship Hall of Fame alongside other entrepreneurs who graduated from the school like Femi Otedola and Opeyemi Awoyemi of Jobberman.

Igbo companies spread all across Nigerian states and beyond, even stretching all the way to Togo, Benin, Ghana and so on. We have employed not just more yorubas but like I stated clearly even other tribes in large numbers and ofcourse it has been proved time and time again even from the statements of Hausa elites who are more honest than yorubas but you lots will seal your mouths and claim its a lie, scam, 2x2 etc, you will even doubt Christ if he confirms it to you so who are we? just mere mortals who are most enterprising, not our fault biko
