Though a simple woman, but highly regarded as being classy in her appearance and conduct, while also exhibiting finesse, humility, dignity and integrity.

She is known to be a very strong pillar, and a vibrant, modern woman, who has taken active participation in a variety of significant and meaningful contributions to humanity with her career and talents, and whose encompassing influence has reached numerous milestones with high moral rectitude and excellent christian and family virtues.

This exemplary woman will on Monday, August 12, 2024 be with her adorable husband to host friends, mentees, family members, business associates, protégés etc as the globally recognized energy and insurance guru will be commemorating his 60th birthday anniversary to the glory of God Almighty.
The iconic Dr Adesina, is a rare breed, a higly productive entrepreneur, who sees resilience in the face of failure and never sees failure as the final word. He believes it is just an event that can be changed when one learns from previous pitfalls.
He has had a highly diversified professional background. At Sahara Group, he directed many initiatives, including nation-wide strategic management of the supply chain of fuel to the Emergency Power Plant of the defunct National Electricity Power Authority, led the Majestic Oil delegation on the acquisition of the Sierra Leone Refinery, managed the crude oil contract of the Group in Cote D’Ivoire, became the Director of Infrastructure, responsible for the acquisition of strategic assets in Africa.
As one with experience that traverses various fields of human endeavours, it excites him to flow with the trend and to promote national interest, socio-economically, most recently, precisely on Wednesday, March 27, 2024, President Bola Tinubu GCFR made him a key member of the Presidential Economic Coordination Council comprising himself (President), the Vice President, Senate President and the Chairman of the Nigerian Governors Forum among over 25 others.
Dr Adesina also served as a member of the Presidential Committee on the Accelerated Expansion of the Electricity Infrastructure in Nigeria, which culminated in the unbundling of PHCN successor companies. He combines his years of management and business diplomacy experience into creating and executing innovative strategies for governments across sub Saharan Africa in the energy sector. This man is a sought after resource person on energy-related issues, especially the power sector in Africa and a frontline speaker at conferences across the globe.
He is passionate about empowering young people and takes great pride in mentoring youths to seek creative ways of galvanising their energies for sustained excellence and productivity. He is a pan-Africanist and avowed promoter of the Pan African dream of regional integration and trade.
More impressive is that this awesome family has been a great inspiration to many homes, locally and internationally; it is the prayer of us all that God will continue to bless the Adesinas and make them succeed and flourish in their endeavors, in good health with abiding fulfillment.
