Before he ascended the throne of his forefathers, His Imperial Majesty, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, Ojaja II, The Ooni of Ife was a very successful businessman. And he still is. As the Founder and Chairman of Grand Imperio Group, his holding company has extensive business interests in Real Estate and Construction, Manufacturing, Facilities Management, Leisure and Tourism companies within Nigeria. Oba Ogunwusi has been involved in Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) locally and abroad for over 13 years. He has been actively involved in the development of over 2,500 housing units with various consortia of developers/promoters, over the last 9 years in Nigeria. He played a key part in the facilitation of trade between the United Arab Emirates UAE (Jebel Ali Free Trade Zone development) and Federal Government of Nigeria, through Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission (NIPC). He was also involved in the facilitation and development of Sparkwest Steel Galvanizing Plant (the only Steel Galvanizing Plant in Nigeria), National Iron Ore Mining Company Limited and Jakura Mines resuscitation projects, which has eventually become the major limestone feed stock to Obajana Cement Plant in Kogi State, Nigeria. Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi is a Director, Imperial Homes Mortgage Bank Limited, (formerly GTHomes), a leading National Mortgage Bank and former subsidiary of one of the biggest banks in Africa, GTBank. He holds a Higher National Diploma in Accountancy from the Polytechnic Ibadan. He is also a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria (ICAN), an Associate Accounting Technician and a certified member of the Institute of Directors (IoD) Nigeria. He is also an active member of Global Real Estate Institute (GRI). His company Grand Imperio Group has been actively involved in the development of over 13 housing estates, within Lagos and the rest of the Southwest region. These include Essential Homes Estate in Lagos, which comprises 1 bedroom, 2 bedroom, 3 bedroom, 4 bedroom terraced bungalows, 3 bedroom town houses + bq and Ante room, 3 bedroom apartments and 5 bedroom standalone duplexes . Others are Southpointe Estate I & II in Lekki area which consists of over 296 units of exquisitely finished bungalows with recreational facilities; Northpointe Estate (Phase I & II) located on Northern Foreshore road off Chevron drive, Lekki Peninsula, Lagos which has 101 units of 4 bedroom luxury duplexes on land measuring 30,000sqm. Another of the estates established by the Grand Imperio Group is Jacob Mews, a $23.3 million project, which features over 120 units of premium residential flats, maisonettes and town houses located in Yaba, Lagos. Lakeview Park Estate (Phase I & II) is also one of Oba Ogunwusi's projects. It is a world class residential community with best-in-class design, construction, amenities, site services and security, not far from the renowned Victoria Garden City (VGC) Estate in Lagos. Its' 202 residential plots of 600 sqm and 800 sqm were sold out in record time. Inagbe Grand Resorts and Leisure is a tourism complex that is being developed by Oba Ogunwusi's firm, Grand Imperio Limited. The resort is located within a friendly community rich in culture and history of ancient Lagos Monarchy; home to the Esinmikan Royal Family. Situated between the Lagos lagoon and the magnificent Atlantic Ocean, Inagbe Grand Resorts & Leisure provides exquisite scenic views of both abundant water bodies. Inagbe Grand Resort stretches over 3 million square meter land, within a 100 kilometer stretch island along the Atlantic Ocean, just a few minutes away from Victoria Island. The site is only accessible by ferry and speedboats. Other projects include Midland Court, Ruby Court Estates, The Lord's Estate, Golden Leaf Estate, Grand Lake etc., which are currently in various stages of completion both within and outside Lagos State. Oba Ogunwusi's firm, Grand Imperio Limited has also undertaken the construction of the 5 - 8 kilometre access way, known as the Lafiaji-Orchid Estate Road off the Lekki-Epe Expressway, in Lagos. They also executed an electrification project along the same road, along with installation of electric poles for electricity distribution. Within his domain in Ile-Ife, the Ooni has also embarked on various construction works and infrastructure projects designed to uplift the town. http://granimperiogroup.com/projects/ As at then, Nigeria was a commodity-trading nation. Then, we realised that the demand for iron rods and cement was so high, and I became very interested. 3 Likes

HEBRON LIMITED http://hebronltd.com/about-us/ ADEYINKA ASEKUN CEO Hebron Limited is a full service training and consulting company based in Lagos, Nigeria. We are experts in the development and implementation of retail banking strategy with a focus on retail banking sales, performance management, retail credit and infrastructure. The other key area of focus is management soft skills training and strategy consulting with public and private sector organisations. The Retail Banking space is an area in which we have observed considerable gaps in the skill profile and experience of many banking officers in Nigerian banks. We have observed a situation in which the approaches used in managing corporate relationships are being applied to retail banking situations, often with suboptimal results. We therefore offer a number of solutions, targeted at various roles in the retail banking space to ensure we fill the gap in a manner that results in significant contribution to the bottom line. As trainers we build capacity within organisations by imparting the skills, specialisations, structures and processes required by the staff of companies in the private and public sectors that would serve to make each employee we train more effective in the work place, improve the chances of their actualizing their potential and finding fulfillment in the work. In working with our private and public sector clientele we try to ensure that whatever support we provide fits into the overall business strategy of the organisation. The partners that make up Hebron Limited have over half a century of combined experience in a number of rather diverse yet very relevant disciplines such as; strategic planning, retail banking strategy, credit risk management, marketing and sales of fast moving consumer goods, brand management, mortgage banking, real estate investment trust, organisational integration and credit systems implementation among others in Nigeria and abroad. All the partners have held board and or executive level appointments in fairly large organisations. .: .: 2 Likes

Bifwoli:Continue telling yourself those lies if they make you feel better. You want people to believe there are no touts, area boys or yam sellers in major towns in the Southeast? As if it is not the same Ala Igbo that we all know. While I was doing youth corps, I know how many towns I visited in the South East, especially during their market days. Several people have shared their encounters with area boys in Onitsha, Aba, Awaka etc on this same NL. I can pull up quite a number of such posts from different threads to enlighten you, since you want to keep living in denial. 7 Likes |
