In 2005 I had a friend that worked in Oando and she did mention to me that she has a colleague. And she called Akin and we spoke.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI set up my training company in London Fine Shade Energy, I was looking for a trader and I couldn\u2019t find any good trader. I called Dimeji Edwards who was Akin\u2019s boss. Akin picked up the phone to come and see me.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo he came, and I said to him, \u2018listen I want to give you a job\u2019. Come and work for me. Then of course he went back to Wale and Mofe who were his bosses then (at Oando). And they said you want to go and work for that man? That has sacked 6 CEOs in 6 years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow when I say destiny prevails, the business collapsed. I built a massive empire. I had 93% of diesel at my fingertips. I was a bit playful, and the business collapsed. The option I had then was to commit suicide. Then, of course, I thought of Nana and the kids. And I said no, I won\u2019t commit suicide.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI will face reality and sack myself and the business. So, I sacked myself. I made Akin the CEO of the London office, and I was so impressed by the way he turned around the business. I gave him 1% of the business. I now later, made him the CEO of Zenon Oil, and then the CEO of African Petroleum.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I sacked myself after my diesel business collapsed \u2013 Otedola Otedola said the thought of his wife and children stopped him from committing suicide He said Akin Akinfemiwa helped him to survive in his darkest moments Nigerian billionaire, Femi Otedola says he contemplated suicide after a business he invested heavily in crashed.
