Oil Top Player, Abayomi Awobokun, Celebrates at 43
Abayomi Awobokun, CEO, Enyo Retail and Supply Limited, has succeeded in etching his name in the minds of active players in the oil and gas sector in the country. Call it luck or grace, his story is one that many would find very interesting anytime.
Even now, many talk about him in glowing terms, especially because of his expansion drive, since he ventured into the oil and gas business. He is being celebrated by all because he has been able to grow the company, despite the retail arm of the value chain being almost saturated when he started Enyo. Since he ventured into the business, his strategies, which have given him fame, have endeared him to a lot of people in the sector.
Last Monday, the debonair oil top player clocked 43, and he was joined in the celebration by family members, friends and associates, who took turns to eulogise him.
Awobokun, who holds a Master ’s degree in International Business from the University of Surrey, United Kingdom, is a 2016 recipient of the Young Global Leader award from the World Economic Forum (WEF). He was also nominated by the Choiseul Institute in Paris as one of the top 100 under 40 business leaders in Africa. Until he started Enyo, he had been the Chief Operating Officer of Oando Plc and later the company’s Chief Executive Officer of the downstream business in Nigeria, West Africa, Europe and the Middle East.
