Suave billionaire mogul, Femi Otedola, is a smart man. Those who know the amiable businessman from his youthful days on the streets of Surulere and Ikeja in Lagos would tell you that he looks out for yawning gap and moves to fill it. Or what would one say of a minor (aged 6) already cutting deals and issuing receipts as a nail groomer? That’s the trait Otedola pushed to become a mega businessman today. When in 2003, Otedola saw an opportunity he could grab in the oil business, he dumped the family printing business he was superintending and set up Zenon Oil to invest in the downstream infrastructure development and within few years, he became the market leader in the niche diesel market. With increased income from his oil business, Otedola grew his investments and even strayed into banking with substantial shares in Zenith Bank Plc and UBA Plc. However, as the trouble in the global oil business became predictable, the Epe-born magnate started to divest and look for new opportunities. T

It wouldn’t be hyperbolic to say that Dr. Tunde Ayeni has a patriot’s heart and the soul of a revolutionary. This is to assert the fidelity and stoic perseverance of the genius within the footholds of power and a troubled oil sector. Yes, despite his exit from Skye Bank, where he served as chairman, the cascade of blows against the successful lawyer turned business magnate has neither softened nor ceased. At the moment, Ayeni is battling tooth and nail to save his most audacious investment, Ntel, from some powerful forces decidedly hell-bent on taking over the telecom company and probably messing him up.

Within a year of operations, Ntel has emerged a force to be reckoned with in the very competitive telecommunications sector, introducing the most sophisticated 4G service to Niger
