Meet Damola Adamolekun, the CEO of P.F. Chang’s China Bistro, a popular Asian casual-dining restaurant chain based in the U.S. Since 2020, he has been leading the company to ensure its continued growth and success. Damola, who is now 33-years old, has been essential in the evolution of P.F. Chang’s, one of the largest and most famous restaurant chains across the globe. Even though the brand is still strong, he believed that it is necessary to embrace change to adapt to the uncertain future. As P.F. Chang’s CEO, Damola worked on revamping the dining rooms and revising the menu items. He also initiated the inclusion of delivery and to-go orders which was viewed as unfitting to the brand before. Now the chain operates a number of small fast-casual-type of locations around the country. True enough, the business survived even when the pandemic hit. What’s more, he led the company to a 31.7% increase in sales in 2021 compared to the year before, according to Top 500 chain data from Restaurant Business sister firm, Technomic. Moreover, Damola is a partner at Paulson & Co., which became one of the principal owners of P.F. Chang’s which was bought for $700 million in 2019. He was also on the board of directors at the International Tower Hill Mines LLC. Adamolekun earned his bachelor’s degree in Economics from Brown University and his Master of Business Administration from Harvard Business School. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/33-old-making-history-first-140452557.html mynd44 lalasticlala

MrMaestro: Not to mention Yorubas dominate the tech sector with Paystack, flutterwave both being Yoruba founded. And many many more that are receiving funding and about to be unicorn companies are nearly all Yoruba founded. Even Yorubas in the United States are starting to become self made billionaires there as well, Tope Awotona as an example joining the Forbes list this year as the wealthiest self made Nigerian American immigrant ever. Not to mention Yorubas in the UK like Ogunlesi that led the acquisition of the UKs Gatwick airport.
Yorubas are great, if we want to start dick measuring now that other tribe will see reality and have a heart attack. They’re lucky we are humble. Let’s not adopt their mentality, it’s not a good look. It’s funny, they call themselves Jews but it’s the Yorubas that emulate the Jews in their actions not mouth more than them. Silently dominating business and gaining influence without chest thumping. Let’s keep it that way.
I no fit laugh ooh, when i talk say these brainle** yeebow s*bh*mans are the most stup*d people on this planet earth, people no gree.

adebayo987: This is a very stupid assessment driven by greed and sentiments. Our people and the north has benefitted more in the leadership of this country since 1999 both as vice and president than the south south and south east. We all know that the south east has been marginalised. They deserve to lead this country as president in as much as zoning is practised. Now that it's supposed to be theirs, all others want to claim it from them (a big show of hatred, not fear). If they want to leave the country, you still won't let them go, then why the hell are we treating them like slaves? Hope we all know the kind of beings we're creating by these attitudes. Whether we like it or not, if this continues, the nation will divide one day in the future probably in the hands of the next two generations (two decades). Let's change, people.
A group, Yoruba Youth Socio-cultural Association (YYSA) Worldwide, yesterday, berated persons agitating that the South-East must produce Nigeria’s president in 2023. It argued that the South-East could not reap where it didn’t sow. And if it would produce the next president, it should make the attempt on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), not the All Progressives Congress (APC).
In a statement by YYSA National President, Olalekan Hammed, in Ibadan, Oyo State, the group said the South West has invested so much in APC; hence the region should produce the party’s flag bearer.
It argued: “Unlike the South West, from 1999 till today, South East and South-South have been PDP- biased regions. And a lot of benefits were allotted to them, most especially during former President Goodluck Jonathan’s regime, as rewards for their loyalty to PDP. “Besides, we could remember in 2015, they (South East and South-South) almost put President Muhammadu Buhari to shame when they couldn’t give him 25 per cent of their entire votes.
“If at all they think now is the time for their region to produce the next president, they should do so through PDP. That is where they have invested heavily.
Indeed, it is the South West region that has paid its dues adequately that will have it.” AS PDP plans to hold its National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting tomorrow, a founding member of APC, Osita Okechukwu, has said the major opposition party should be held responsible if the presidency does not go to the South in 2023.
He said: “I appeal passionately to the PDP NEC to zone the presidency to the South during their Wednesday meeting for the collective interest of our dear country. They should not disappoint their Southern supporters. Equity, natural justice and good conscience are on the table.”
Okechukwu, who is also the Director-General of Voice of Nigeria (DG, VON), remarked that APC has been watching with studied interest PDP’s desperation to prey on Buhari’s 12 million-man vote bank.
Expressing the possibility that APC might be forced to review its strategies for the forthcoming general elections after the PDP meeting, he faulted the Middle Belt Forum, Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF), Afenifere and Ohanaeze Ndigbo over their condemnation of APC’s indecision to zone the presidency to the South.
“We know it is doubtful that any politician in PDP could sweep Buhari’s 12 million votes away, PDP’s desperation to break into Buhari’s bank explains APC’s indecision. But, although, one is not holding brief for our distinguished national chairman, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, one’s little understanding is that the leadership of our great party is watching closely the desperation and antics of our elder sister political party, the PDP.
“They want to capture power by all means, indeed using Machiavellian tactics. We all know that PDP is famished, thirsty and desperate to win the presidency in 2023. They loathe the loss of their slogan, ‘Share the Money’, through their absence from power at the centre for seven (going to) eight years.” Insisting PDP should be blamed, Okechukwu said: “It was unconscionable and despicable that the opposition party should breach the zoning convention, which helped in no small measure to unite and harmonise the country. “PDP is aware that President Buhari will not be on the ballot in 2023, therefore, for them, there is a void to fill. They must have reasoned that the Buhari vote bank would be up for grabs if they go North.
“Methinks PDP’s calculation is a desperate one, and selfish to the extent that they breached their own constitution and their age-long die-hard supporters in the South, especially the South East.
“As a corollary, APC seems to have adopted the cat and mouse game, because if the PDP adopts the terra firma or doctrine of realpolitik, which places electoral victory above their constitution, the moral high ground and ethics of their members and supporters in the South; APC wants to do the pragmatic thing. That is going back to the drawing board.” THE Asiwaju Musulumi of Yorubaland, Edo and Delta, Dr. Khamis Olatunde-Badmus, yesterday, urged Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and other Yoruba presidential aspirants to consider the roles Asiwaju Bola Tinubu played in their success stories and desist from contesting the APC ticket with him.
Olatunde Badmus, while addressing journalists in Osogbo, asked Osinbajo, former Governor Ayodele Fayose, and others to allow Tinubu, being the oldest and first among them, to clinch the ticket, stressing that failure to do this would divide the over 12 million votes that could come from the South West.
He said: “Tell me any state in the South West where Tinubu does not have contributions as to who becomes governor. Will Fayemi say Tinubu didn’t contribute to his being a governor? Will Osinbajo say he was not an Attorney General under Tinubu? You should give respect to elders. Will Aregbesola say he didn’t benefit from him? They may have their own differences but I believe there is a need for wisdom to prevail.”
ALSO, a socio-political group, Tinubu Hope of Nigeria Vanguard, has urged Nigerians to disregard rumour about Tinubu’s ill health. The group said the rumour was targeted at ruining the political ambition of the presidential aspirant.
Its leader, Mr. Bode Famose, at a press conference in Akure, yesterday, declared unflinching support for the bid of the former governor.
He said those who are peddling malicious campaigns about the health of the aspirant do not mean well for the nation, adding that Tinubu has the wherewithal to solve Nigeria’s socio-economic and political challenges. MEANWHILE, traders, under the aegis of South-East Amalgamated Traders Association (SEAMATA), have backed the call for a president of South-East extraction in 2023, urging political parties to give aspirants from the zone a chance.
This was contained in a statement in Enugu, signed by SEAMATA President-General, Chief Gozie Akudolu and Secretary-General, Mr. Alex Okwudili.
The statement called on all political parties, “in the interest of equity, justice, fairness and balance of power”, to zone the 2023 presidential candidacy to the South East.
The highly reliable and trusted Times Higher Education Impact Rankings has ranked the 12-year old Afe Babalola University, Ado-Ekiti, ABUAD, as the Best University in Nigeria and one of the best 400 in the world.
The Times Higher Education World University Rankings, respected worldwide by students, teachers, governments and industry experts, focuses on “helping the world’s universities to achieve excellence” by looking at performance indicators that measure an institution’s performance across four key areas of teaching, research, knowledge transfer and international outlook.
The International Ranking Body is also the definitive source of data, insight and expertise on higher education worldwide while its business is built on 10 million data points from 2,500 institutions in 93 countries, on unrivalled news, insight and intelligence; and on a relationship of trust with universities spanning 50 years.
The Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2022 included more than 1,600 universities across 99 countries and territories, making them the largest and most diverse university rankings to date.
This year’s ranking analysed more than 108 million citations across over 14.4 million research publications and included survey responses from almost 22,000 scholars globally. Overall, we collected over 430,000 data points from more than 2,100 institutions that submitted data.
The global ranking for ABUAD is coming 10 months after the Alper-Doger Scientific Index, ranked the same university as the “Best Research University” among the 99 Private Universities in Nigeria and No. 10 out of 197 Public and Private Universities in Nigeria in July 2021.
The cheering news was published on the website of The Times Higher Education World University Rankings’ website.
This was later followed by a letter dated Wednesday, April 27, 2022, and titled “2022 THE Impact Rankings” by the highly celebrated former NUC Executive Secretary, Prof. Peter Okebukola, a renowned crusader for quality and functional education.
In his letter to Vice-Chancellors of Nigerian Universities, Okebukola said: “The 2022 Times Higher Education Impact Rankings (measured against the SDGs) were released today. The top three universities are 1st – Afe Babalola University, 2nd – Covenant University and 3rd – University of Ibadan.
He added: “The others are University of Oxford, United Kingdom, California Institute of Technology, United States of America, Harvard University, United States, Stanford University, United States, University of Cambridge, United Kingdom, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, United States, Princeton University, United States, University of California, Berkeley, United States, Yale University, United States, and The University of Chicago, United States.
“Yet others are Columbia University, United States, Imperial College, London, United Kingdom, Johns Hopkins University, United States, University of Pennsylvania, United States, ETH Zurich, Switzerland, Peking University, China, Tsinghua University, China, University of Toronto, Canada, UCL, United Kingdom, University of California, Los Angeles, United States, National University of Singapore, Singapore, Cornell University, University, United States, Duke University, the United States and the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor, United States as well as Northwestern University, United States among others.
“Our (NUC) Executive Secretary, H.A.E. Prof. Abubakar Adamu Rasheed, min, MFR, FNAL, HLF, congratulates the universities and entreats that we should strive to get many more Nigerian universities in the top 200 in the next few years.
“By our strategic plan 2022-2030, the Nigeria Universities Ranking Advisory Committee (NURAC) will work with all universities in the system to ensure that we are no pushover on the global league tables from 2023”.
Reacting to the cheering news, the obviously elated Ag. Vice-Chancellor of the University, Prof. E. Smaranda Olarinde, who received it with utmost gladness, attributed the uncommon feat to the cooperation that the University has consistently received from all stakeholders such as the National Universities Commission, NUC, the Medical & Dental Council of Nigeria, MDCN, Council for Legal Education and the Nigerian Society of Engineers, NSE, among others, the parents, the ever-committed teachers and the teeming student population of the University. Olarinde was particularly happy that people and organizations outside Nigeria are following ABUAD’s achievements with keen interest since it commenced Academic works on Monday, January 4, 2010, whereby it has institutionalized qualitative and functional education, raised a new generation of Nigerians and ensured that Nigeria regains its lost glory in education.
The university boss thanked the parents and other well-wishers who have inundated her and the University with congratulatory messages on this monumental achievement. With all these, Olarinde said that the Founder & Chancellor of the University, Aare Afe Babalola’s goal of seeing ABUAD becoming one of the best 100 universities in the world is imminent.
