He started his career at credit suisse, a low key Rothschild bank.

Yea. Very obvious since the Rothschild family controls the world's financial system, including investment bankers. But BlackRock (Vanguard) with its devious ideologies is different from Credit Suisse. They do not just seek financial control. There is more fo sure.

Burna Boy mentioning his name in a song is a very weak argument. These singers can mention anybody’s name in their song. Were they not singing about Hushpuppy?

He is a founding partner. He therefore must have shares in the company.

Even a 10% stake should enable him attain the billionaire status.

There 6 founding partners, but there is NO CHANCE the firm became this big without institutional investors' money.

I doubt the 6 founders own up to 10% of the business. Even the founders of BlackRock that is buying them do not own more than 1% of BlackRock combined. Institutional investors own about 80% of BlackRock and all employees are given shares.

The founders of BlackRock actually have only like 0.10% to 0.30% (the highest share percentage owned by any of the founders).

So the likelihood Ogunlesi owns more than 5% of GIP is very slim to none.

You mean the likes of Emoney, that fat one from Owerri and the one that sells hot drinks in the night club, and one that's always displaying an awkward peace sign on social media. Those are your so called billionaires. grin

Otedola is worth $1.1Billion dollars as at yesterday. Tony is around $700m. cool

BlackRock Inc. agreed to buy Adebayo Ogunlesi’s Global Infrastructure Partners for about $12.5 billion, vaulting the world’s biggest money manager into the top ranks of investors that make long-term bets on energy, transportation and digital infrastructure..

This is phenomenally huge! Congrats sir. You're truly peerless.
Sagamu is trying o. Haba! From Anthony Joshua now to Chief Adebayo Ogunlesi! Wow!! I am so proud of Sagamu joor. Proud of these great Nigerian exports to the world.

Chief Adebayo Ogunlesi goes for very audacious goals and gets it done. He is just too phenomenal and I nominate him to be conferred with a GCON national honour. He is following in the footsteps of late Lagos Island-born Chief Dehinde Fernandez.
God bless Nigeria for ever! Check my signature for free stuffs!
Is he related to mama Ogunlesi that founded Children's Home School in Ìbàdàn?

Congrats.
How much shares does he or his company have in Blackrock now or is it total takeover?
If it were me I wouldn't sell but I know the Whites will fight him with everything.
He is a gem to have stirred the GIP he started in 2006 or so to control finance portfolio of more than $100 billion.
Nigerians are doing great things.

Which "Whites" will fight him with everything?

This victim mentality is why many of you will never achieve anything in life and will die in poverty.

The usual stuuupid "they hate us, they are jealous of us, they want to destroy us" victim and loser mentality.

Global Infrastructure Partners was established in May 2006. Two founding investors in its first fund, GIP I, were Credit Suisse and General Electric. Both committed approximately 9% of the US$5.64 billion of GIP I's committed capital.

My God!

A Investment Fund is different from Corporate Equity.

Those that own capital in the fund are just interest-seeking investors and own no share in the company.

Those that own the equities of the corporation own the company.
