Afe Babalola commends outgoing Odu’a Investment GMD

Founder,  ABUA University, Aare Afe Babalola, SAN, has commended the achievements of the outgoing Group Managing Director of Odu’a Investment Company Limited, Mr Adewale Raji.

The legal luminary made this commendation during the Odu’a team’s working visit to Afe Babalola University in Ado Ekiti on Wednesday, May 22, 2024.

The Odu’a team facility tour took them around the state-of-the-art hospital complex, industrial park, ABUAD farm and the gas-powered Independent Power Project of the university.

Aare Babalola, however, lauded Mr Raji’s doggedness and forthrightness in shaping the company’s new board governance structure, which has helped ensure the continuity and stability of its businesses.

While aligning with the eight sectors, which include Real Estate, Hospitality, Financial Services, Agriculture, Energy/Power, ICT/Digital, Healthcare/Pharmaceuticals and Logistics/e-Commerce, the founder of ABUAD University charged the incoming GMD to ensure continued contact with Mr Raji even after retirement and make Odu’s presence more visible in all the south-western states of Oyo, Ondo, Ogun, Osun, Ekiti and Lagos.

He encouraged Odu’a to be a big player in the agriculture, industry, and education sectors, which were the main cardinal focus areas of the founding fathers of the company.

Raji thanked Aare Babalola for being a pillar of support in his 10-year journey, including advisory services for his law firm that have helped in laying a solid foundation for future growth under the able leadership of Mr Abdulrahman Yinusa as the GMD.
