Business › Re: The Nigerian Billionaire Who Lost Everything by GENUINEFILMS: 9:46pm On Nov 18, 2020 |
Speak2klein: Life was rosy for Femi Otedola until it took a sudden turn leaving him billions in the red. He had to start all over again. In 2008, a shipment containing one million tons of diesel set sail, heading for the shores of Nigeria. The owner of the vessel, Femi Otedola, Chairman of Forte Oil, a petroleum and power generation company, had grown the company to one of the largest in Nigeria, with over 500 filling stations, according to Forbes. The growth had been rapid, and profits were at an all-time high. Then disaster struck.
“I had about 93 percent of the diesel market on my fingertips. All of a sudden, oil prices collapsed, and I had over one million tons of diesel on the high seas, and the price dropped from $146 to $34” — Femi Otedola.
That was only the beginning of his problems. The naira was subsequently devalued, and interest began to skyrocket. When the dust settled, Otedola had lost over $480 million due to the plunge in oil prices, $258 million through the devaluation of the naira, a further $320 million due to accruing interest, and then finally $160 million when the stocks crashed.
“I had two options, either to commit suicide or to weather the storm. I decided to weather the storm. I just knew it was a phase I had to go through.
You see, God prepares you for more incredible things and, of course, the Experience is the best teacher, so I had to learn my lessons. I took the bitter pill”. — Femi Otedola
Otedola was now $1.2 billion in debt. He sought solace in the only thing that had set him on the path to discovering oil, destiny.
“You cannot compete with destiny, so it was my destiny to make billions every month and lose billions as well. I said to myself, ‘I was not going to have friends and enemies, I was only going to have competitors.” At the age of six, Otedola had already discovered his knack for business. He would provide manicure and pedicure services to his father and his friends and write them a receipt for payment.
On his birthday, while all his friends wanted toys, Femi Otedola would ask his father for a briefcase instead. His father, Sir. Michael Otedola, as a former Governor of Lagos State, was a well-respected man. But now, his son’s public fall threatened to destroy that name.
“After I lost the money, something that struck me was that my father had always been my role model in life, and the first thing I had to do was to protect his name. He had a policy; honesty was the best policy, so I had to protect that name and his integrity.”
Just after the global banking crisis had struck, the Nigerian government established the Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria (AMCON) to buy up distressed loans. Otedola’s loan was sold to AMCON, by the bank he blamed for his challenges.
“Experience is the best teacher. I didn’t have a proper structure, and I also blamed the banks for not advising me. All they were interested in was the profits. They were not interested in the sustainability of the business, they were short-sighted, and all they were interested in was throwing money at me. So they never advised me,” — Femi Otedola.
The banks had to shave off about $400 million from the debt leaving Otedola $800 million in the red. AMCON offered him a restructuring deal, which Otedola declined. He opted instead to repay what he owed and start all over again.
“So we got a reputable firm to value my assets. I had about 184 flats, which I gave up. I was the largest investor in the Nigerian banking sector, which I gave up, I was also a major shareholder of Africa Finance Corporation, and I was the Chairman of Transcorp Hilton. I was a shareholder in Mobil Oil Nigeria Limited, the second-largest shareholder in Chevron Texaco, Visafone, and several companies which they valued, and I had to give up to repay the debt.”
Femi Itedola now had only two properties, his office space and a 34-percent stake in African Petroleum, which he rebranded to Forte Oil in 2010. In 2014, Otedola bounced back to reclaim his place on the FORBES rich list and currently has a net worth of $1.8 billion, according to the FORBES wealth unit.
These days, he is much wiser; there are systems in place to prevent a similar collapse of his mammoth business empire. According to the mogul, the day he lost everything was the day he learned his biggest lesson. It taught him that he could overcome anything.
