Real Estate Czar, Sijibomi Ogundele’s Clear Vision

-

Take a cursory look at his profile, and you will not agree less that (Dr.) Sijibomi Ogundele, the Chairman Sujimoto Group is a businessma­n blessed with a clear vision.

For him, the journey on the boulevard of fame and mega success began some years ago. It only grew higher at the time having tasted success after launching his never-seen-before luxury real estate. At that time, he was prodded by the desire to leave his imprints on the sands of time.

He would later conceptual­ise Sujimoto’s constructi­on. When the company was birthed, little did he know that in no time it would redefine the real estate industry. Before his eyes, the company has grown to become one of the most successful real estate companies inAfrica.

Neverthele­ss, he has refused to relax in his comfort zone. Rather, he is hitting for the sky and ready to conquer his world.

The man, full of innovation, has since been involved in other businesses for the growth of Nigeria’s economy.

Recently, Ogundele is set to partner with the

Enugu State Government with his Sujimoto Rice Farm to ensure food security in the Coal City state.

As hinted, the company expressed joy at the prospect of playing its own part towards making Enugu a food-sustainabl­e state, describing the people as very welcoming and accommodat­ing while arriving at the former East Central State capital.

Ogundele had a successful meeting with the state governor, Peter Mbah, who welcomed his team with unparallel­ed hospitalit­y and provided them with reasons why Enugu was the best choice for future audacious projects.

With an ambitious project set to span over 30,000 hectares of rice farm and a mill producing approximat­ely 800,000 tonnes of rice annually, Sujimoto Farm Estate will be built on an advanced farming system that incorporat­es housing, farm hospitals, hotels, and markets within an ecosystem, driving agro-tourism, employment opportunit­ies, and affordable housing for Enugu, we gathered.
