JARUSHUB REMARKS
While Wale Tinubu is who comes to mind when Oando is mentioned, little is known by ordinary people about his friend and number 2 man in the energy conglomerate, Oando, Mofe.
Mofe and Wale are childhood friends.
Both are law graduates, born same year (1967), and trained in United Kingdom.
They, alongside another friend, set up Ocean & Oil (O and O), the forerunner of the Oando of today at 27 years!
The highly effective (and handsome, to boot) Mofe is one of the brains behind the many strides of the Oando Group.
Take home: That friendship between you and your friend may be turned into formidable business partnership if you both think alike.
