While Femi Otedola is seen as a successful oil czar, his admirers do not realise that success did not just fall into his laps, but it took a lot of hard work and challenges, for him to make a headway in business.

Several years back, Otedola was the second largest shareholder in the downstream oil firm, Texaco. But his plans to buy the company was cut short, when MRS Oil beat him to it and took over the oil company's assets. He retreated and focused more on the diesel market by setting up his own company, Zenon Petroleum and Gas Limited. It turned out to be a great business decision. He also set up a logistics arm with a fleet of trucks and named it F.O Transport. With just one stroke, he took control of the entire chain. He later went further to diversify into property and a number of other large companies. It all paid off.

He now has a downstream oil firm in Ghana, known as AP Oil & Gas Ghana Limited (APOG) and also owns Forte Upstream Services Limited (formerly African Petroleum Oilfield Services -APOS) which operates in the upstream petroleum services sector.

At one time he was listed as owing over millions of US dollars to Nigerian banks. The shares of his company's stock plummeted, and he fell off the list of Africa's richest businessmen. Otedola reshuffled his finances and paid off every cent, according to the Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria (AMCON). The rise in net worth was helped by a spike in the share price of his company, Forte Oil where he owns an 80% shareholding. In 2015, he sold a 17 per cent stake in Forte Oil Plc to Mercuria Energy Group, a Swiss privately held international commodity trading company active over a wide spectrum of global energy markets for about $200 million USD.

Today, Femi Otedola, owns a $53.5-million home in the heart of the exclusive Knightsbridge district in London. He also has a fleet of custom Roll Royce cars in London, and Mercedes fleet in Nigeria, together worth $7.7 million. In the offshore waters of Lagos, his sleek, custom-made, $19.5 million yacht berths within the Victoria Island lagoon. Otedola was the second Nigerian to make the FORBES billionaires list in 2009.

Aje House, Ibadan, Nigeria


https://cdn.archinect.net/images/1200x/3y/3y3mp4bhe29e83uy.jpg


Competition winning entry for the redevelopment of Aje House - an iconic modernist tower at the heart of Ibadan’s Central Business District - and adjoining parcels to create SMART offices and a mix of supporting facilities.

As part of an invited design competition, a Master Plan has been prepared for the redevelopment of a core area of Downtown Ibadan in Oyo State, Nigeria. This includes the rennovation of Aje House - a 14 storey tower, podium and cluster of smaller buildings and structures amounting to 2,560 m2 of prime commercial space.

Within the resultant proposal, the core of the existing structure is retained while the podium is extended to provide a range of supporting retail, commercial and hospitality activities and present a ‘front door’ to Lebanon Road; one of Ibadan’s commercial spines. A separate structure seeks to accommodate parking requirements while a roof top restaurant, bar and lounge frames a view to Mokola Hill and Agobi Gardens.

My brother you know these people finish. They made exactly the same mouth when we were in Camp at Awgu in Enugu about 9th mile. The way they portrayed Ninth mile in Enugu, you will think it is the most industrialized town in the whole of Africa. To my utmost surprise after camp, I realized the so called industrial 9th mile doesn't have more than one Coca-cola company, one brewery and few small enterprises. You cannot even compare it to Iffo talkless of Otta, Agbara, Sagamu and all other industrial estates in Southwest

I have said it times without number that after the war ravaged Northeast of Nigeria, the 2nd most impoverished region is southeast. Because there are few news coming from the region doesn't stop the reality on ground especially for some of us that have been to that region. Can you imagine this is their popular commercial city of Aba? Now imagine the eyesore and disgusting images of their remote towns and villages. If you go to places like Nkalagu, Igbo-etiti, Akpakume-Nze, Ezeagwu, Ishiagu etc, you will cry for humanity.

Doublecheck:
Afonjas are so rich that they scratch their bank balance on their face and that of their children grin

It is common to see them write in Roman figure, Binary and numbers some Afonja balance are;

111, 111,111 (One hundred and one million, one hundred and one thousand, one hundred and one, only)
111, 111,111,111 (One hundred and one billion, One hundred and one million, one hundred and one thousand, one hundred and one, only) etc.

I bet if they had enough space on their face they would write it in words grin so my Igbo brothers this is why Afonjas think they can compete with Ndigbo, because of the bank balance their fathers scratch on their faces. tongue

See pictorial evidence below. (So my Igbo brothers take it easy with them they were mislead by their fathers)

Why do these "am I Yoruba by the way" clowns enjoy disgracing their ancestors? They're always on threads where Yorubas are bashing those miscreants. You'll never see them discussing Yoruba progress, you'll never see them on threads where those miscreants are posting afonja, brown roof nonsense all over the place.

And why is that some Yorubas never respond to idiotic posts on FP threads especially on the first page. I think some people have no idea the number of people that visit this forum. Okay let's even say you don't want to be a tribalist. What about posts that are in accurate especially when it relates to Yoruba. You see clowns throwing figures all over the place. No one would respond until 3rd page. Wtfook!

If some names aren't online, it becomes a birthday party for potor miscreants

Omo, e weak me oh
Bro, I will tell you the truth. 98% of the idiots saying "I'm Yoruba by the way" are Olori pelebe claiming to be Yoruba. The remaining 2 out of 100 that are truly Yorubas are the omo ales that have sold their senses and dignity because of Shinyere and Shidima puna they are enjoying at the moment. I don't pay attention to these foolish "I'm Yoruba by the way" flatt.ies anymore. They are on a mission to pacify Yorubas while their brothers and sisters continue writing lies and propaganda about Yoruba.
