For Jubril Adewale Tinubu, the head honcho of leading Oil and Gas company, Oando Plc, getting positive result that will position Oando as a world class brand to reckon with remains his top priority. He is proving to the world that; he knows the Oil and Gas business like the back of his hands.

 

The very brilliant businessman is proving to the world that he is definitely a master in the art of making money.

To say that the Lagos State-born is a big player in the oil and gas industry is stating the obvious, in fact, he has emerged a glittering star in the business firmament.

The trained lawyer plies his trade in such a way that makes many of his competitors green with envy. Indeed, he enjoys uncommon grace so much that he now sits atop a multi-billion naira conglomerate with various subsidiaries in oil & gas, properties and so many other businesses scattered around the world.

 

It’s no longer a hidden fact that the Oando boss, had always displayed his unrivalled wizardry and Midas touch with his wealth of experience in business. This has helped him weathered all typhoon storm surfacing.

Wale Tinubu is still standing tall like the proverbial iroko tree.

 

The czar and his team had yet again proved their worth by keeping Oando afloat and also put smiles on the face of investors by positioning the oil firm among the best in the world.

 

With this growth as revealed , the man has been described as a champion extraordinaire whose magic wand is forever potent even when least expected.

 

Wale Tinubu’s success may not come as a surprise to those close to him
because he has over the years, shown evidence that he’s well versed in
oil and gas business; and like a business cognoscenti, he knows when to
throw the dice and even reinvent in a shaky business environment.

The words of a former British Prime Minister, Winston Churchill; “The
empires of the future are empires of the mind” gives credence to Tinubu’s evident ability to successfully overcome challenges.

The story started almost 31 years ago, precisely December 1994, from a relatively small company, Ocean and Oil Services Limited with his friends, Omamofe Boyo and Onajite Okoloko to supply diesel and Low Pour Fuel Oil (LPFO) to various industries, shipping firms and exploration.

 

Tinubu has grown into perhaps one of the biggest players in world oil business. To those with discerning minds, his success, which ranks him as not one of your run-off-the-mill businessmen, is rooted in his uncommon brilliance and business acumen.

 

Interestingly, more than three decades aher sowed in pains, the investment has grown, before his very eyes, to become a multinational conglomerate worth millions of dollars spread across five West Africancountries. At the outset, they bought their first vessel, MT Carolina, in the mid-90s to supply diesel to off-shore companies from the Port-Harcourt Refinery.

 

Tinubu’s continued success is worthy of emulation by entrepreneurs and prospects especially in Nigeria’s inclement business environment.

 

In philanthropy, Tinubu takes seriously the Islamic teaching that enjoins the faithful to be generous. Today, in Nigeria, his name ranks among those most synonymous with the altruism. Blessed with a deep – pocket, a large heart and even deeper passion for humanity, the philanthropist has over the years proved to be a pacesetter in terms of humanitarian gestures.

In this, he deserves a resounding thumbs up. He has lifted countless souls with his magnanimity; he has been an angel of hope for the heavy-hearted around him; he has also lavished his favours on millions around the globe; and he has provided a torch that lights the dark path of the hopeless in the society.

As an entrepreneur of repute, he has provided employment opportunities for several, in and outside the country, thereby enabling them to live their dreams.

Though he does not court publicity for his humanitarian gestures, he is nonetheless an unsung hero. His worthy deeds have not gone unnoticed, as he has been honoured, both at home and abroad for making his world a better place to live in.

Aisha Achimugu: From Business Powerhouse to Paris Style Icon

Published

on

By

Paris has always had a way of making fashion feel less like clothing and more like theatre. And when the world’s style aristocracy gathered for the Spring/Summer 2027 season, Nigerian high flying businesswoman, Aisha Achimugu, arrived with the kind of polished glamour that commands attention without demanding it.

Against the timeless backdrop of the French capital, Achimugu stepped into the world of Paris Fashion Week in a look that married sophistication with modern femininity. Her ensemble was defined by a refined silhouette, impeccable tailoring and the kind of carefully considered styling in which every detail appeared deliberate. The proportions were elegant, the finish luxurious, while her accessories added just the right measure of sparkle and personality.

Her beauty look complemented rather than competed with the outfit. Immaculately styled hair, luminous makeup and a poised, confident bearing completed the picture, allowing the clothes to retain their quiet authority. It was a lesson in restraint: nothing appeared excessive, yet every element, from the jewellery to the finishing touches, contributed to the overall effect.

The real strength of Achimugu’s Paris appearance, however, was in the details. The interplay of texture and silhouette gave the look dimension, while the accessories provided those subtle flashes of glamour associated with the best society dressing. There was an understanding of proportion, balance and occasion, a recognition that at Paris Fashion Week, being noticed is not necessarily about wearing the loudest look in the room.

For Achimugu, fashion has never seemed like an afterthought. It is part of the persona, the jewellery, the sculpted silhouettes, the luxurious textures, the immaculate finishing and that unmistakable confidence of a woman comfortable in her own skin.

Her Paris appearance offered yet another glimpse into the glamorous lifestyle of the Felak Concept Group boss, whose public persona has over the years straddled business, philanthropy, high society and fashion.

In the city, amid the fashion houses and international style elite, Achimugu appeared more than as a spectator but as a Nigerian woman confidently occupying a global fashion space. Her look spoke in the sophisticated language of Parisian dressing, polished, assured and intentionally glamorous, while retaining the unmistakable confidence of a woman bringing her own sense of style to the occasion.

And as the lights of Paris dimmed on another fashionable season, her appearance left behind the unmistakable impression of a woman who understands that fashion, at its most powerful, is as much about presence as it is about clothes.

How I manage Davido’s finances, spending habits — Sharon Adeleke

Published

Sharon Ademefun Adeleke, the elder sister of Afrobeats superstar, Davido, has revealed how she manages her brother’s finances and her unconventional approach to marriage.

Sharon disclosed this while appearing on the Morayo Show, adding that she regularly discusses Davido’s finances with him, particularly his spending on cars and jewellery.

“One of the major things I’m always getting on my brother is jewellery and cars. My God!” she said.

“Me and him will sit down. We will have a finance meeting every week because I think it is important for him to know how his money is being spent.

“And I will now say, ‘David, please, no more cars, no more jewellery.’ Twenty-four hours later, you will start seeing it on the blogs that he bought another car.”

Sharon, a mother of three, also spoke about her marriage, saying she made it clear to her husband from the outset that she did not intend to follow a traditional approach.

“When I met my husband, I explained to him that there isn’t going to be a traditional kind of marriage,” she said.

“I remember, I think in the first few months of us dating, I cooked and all the things. When he was eating, I was like, ‘Oh babe, are you enjoying the food?’ He said yes.

“And I said, ‘Good. Now you know I know how to cook, but I don’t like cooking, and I hope that’s not going to be a problem.”

The entrepreneur revealed how she built her wig-making business. She said she learnt to make wigs out of frustration with the difficulty of securing skilled hairstylists and wig makers, who were often fully booked.

“I learnt how to make wigs because I was frustrated because really good hairstylists and wig makers are always busy. Even if you drop your things with them, every week they will still be busy,” she said.

“So, one day I said, ‘What is this wig making? Let me just try.’ At that time, there was maybe one video or two compared to now, when if you go on YouTube, you can find thousands of videos about wig making.

“I was heavily pregnant and very bored, so my husband took me to the beauty shop, and I bought all the pieces. I just started trying, and then I started doing it more and more. Then my friends started asking me to make wigs for them.”

Sharon said she believes people sometimes discover their businesses unexpectedly rather than through careful planning.

“I’m a big believer that when God gives you a business, you kind of fall into it sometimes. It is not something that you planned,’ she said.

“When I started going into it, I started going for training all over the world.”
