Seagle Homes Boss, Yemi Lawal Honoured
“Seest thou a man who is diligent in his works, he shall stand before kings and not stutter.
“When a man is steadfast in what he has been called and ordained through providence and destiny to do, then the sky will be his starting point and not even his limit.”
These time-tested words aptly describe the essential Oyinba Yemi Lawal, boss of Seagle Homes, who was last Saturday honoured by the Governing Council of the Chartered Institute of Taxation of Nigeria, CITN, at the Institute’s 2018 Annual Dinner that held at the Event Centre Limited Alausa, Ikeja, Lagos.
Yemi, a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria, ICAN, has over 18 years commercial banking experience in Audit, Treasury, Branch Management, Regional Management and Corporate banking, majoring in Corporate & Project Finance.
Prior to floating Seagle Property Development Company Limited in 2007, he had left the banking industry in 2005 as a Regional Manager to set up Eagleways Investment Group, which is now the umbrella body of all his subsidiary companies.
This new addition is an indication that Otunba Lawal is not one to rest on his oars, even when there are indications that he has broken enough grounds in his many concerns.
The CITN Fellowship is an attestation to his resilience and uncommon approach to issues that have to do with business, commerce and enterprise.
More importantly, is his knack for philanthropy, community development and rare generosity.
