Dr. Bolanle Olawale Babalakin (SAN), is first & foremost - a businessman; and secondly, a lawyer. Or is it the other way round? He combines his love for the law, with his thriving construction firms. He is the son of a highly respected and distinguished jurist, Justice Bolarinwa Oyegoke Babalakin, a former Justice of the Supreme Court. Wale studied law at the university of Lagos, before proceeding to Cambridge University for his Masters' degree and Ph.D. Wale Babalakin is also the founder of a prestigious law firm called Wale Babalakin and Co., where he holds sway as the Principal Partner. He owns construction firms such as Bi-Courtney Limited, Stabilini Visinoni Limited and Resort International Limited. After making big returns in the real estate market, from his ownership of a few high rise buildings in Abuja and Lagos, Babalakin applied for the concessioning of the Lagos Domestic Airport, (now known as the Murtala Mohammed Airport 2), after the airport was razed by fire. The application was made through his company, Bi-Courtney Limited. It was the first time such an edifice would be contracted out to a private firm, under a PPP arrangement. Nobody gave the project a chance, as it was considered too cumbersome for the capacity of a private company. In a country with an acknowledged huge infrastructure deficit, the company is a frontline player in Infrastructure Development and Maintenance, with a record of delivering the first major Private-Public Partnership (PPP)-financed infrastructure in the Aviation Industry. Within three years of the concessioning however, and in the face of serious hostility and inconsistency on the part of the government, Bi-Courtney Limited completed the new domestic airport, now famously known as MMA2, which has been variously described as the best airport in Nigeria today, and definitely the first airport terminal to be built in Africa with private funds without any support from the government. Babalakin has decided to concentrate on his other companies such as Homan Engineering Limited, Bi-Courtney Highway Services Limited, Bi-Courtney Aviation Services Limited, Resort International Limited and Amalgamated Estates Limited, in order to keep playing in the big league. Dr. Babalakin’s law firm also engages in the publishing of Law Reports. In 2009, the owners of Nigeria’s first privately published Law Report, Optimum Law Publishers, assigned their rights and interest in the Law Report to Babalakin and Co. 7 Likes 1 Share

And probably get superstar artists like Wizkid, Davido, and Dbanj with star power - to help him with branding. Anyway, you lot are doing a marvelous job.

MyMusic The journey of MyMusic all started with 3 Babcock University students — Damola Taiwo, Dolapo Taiwo and Tolu Ogunsola. Despite their strong tech background — they all studied Computer Science — the three co-founders in the waiting were bound by a common interest for music. Apparently, Damola is good with the bass guitar while Dolapo has a penchant for the keyboard. With this in mind, all that remained was to institute a system that would transform this interest into something that could generate money. A couple of years after graduation, with years of hands-on experiences to booth, the friends formally launched the MyMusic brand; which has since gained a lot of attention. 1 Like |
