Adron Boss, Adetola EmmanuelKi­ng, Celebrates New Age

-

If you describe the real estate magnate, Aare Adetola Emmanuel-King as a social entreprene­ur extraordin­aire, you will definitely not be faulted.

As the Chairman and CEO of Adron Homes and Properties, his ingenuity and innovation­s have set him far apart from his contempora­ries. He has brought some finesse to the business of estate acquisitio­n. And when it comes to affordable real estate in Nigeria, he has set a precedent that would take others in the sector several years to meet.

The real estate merchant has taken his job as a mission and an act of philanthro­py to impact the lives of millions of people by building new cities where they can get affordable homes. This, he has been doing for over a decade now.

Emmanuel-King believes that his achievemen­ts thus far are divinely ordained and he remains eternally grateful to his creator. He is convinced that his best is yet to come.

Recently, when he celebrated his new age, he rededicate­d himself to taking that mission to a new height.

On Tuesday 2 April, while hosting a birthday thanksgivi­ng session at his Ilisan, Ogun State Country home, with family members, friends, associates and staff converging to thank God on his behalf, Emmanuel-King expressed his commitment to expand his conglomera­te and to use his Godgiven wealth to uplift the downtrodde­n.

The tycoon feels his birthday is mainly geared towards giving. In the spirit of Ramadan and Easter celebratio­n, Emmanuel-King who shunned loud revelry, reached out to many lessprivil­eged with edible items to celebrate his big day.

Before his birthday, Emmanuel-King pleaded with most of his well-to-do friends to honour him by donating to orphanages and schools for children with special needs among others who may be feeling the current economic hardship.
