Honestly, his gallantry is priceless!! Like the proverbial titan who walks across his century and leaves the marks of his feet all over it, FO rips out the entanglements on his galoshes as he traverses.
It takes courage to be Femi Otedola. You have to travel aeons back perhaps to encounter a charitable heart like his. His bank of love is never bankrupt. When he gives out money, he spends himself with it.
If FO had his way, he would banish extreme poverty from the world. For him, to give is interred in his innate nature, thus a single act of kindness is like a drop of oil on a patch of dry skin—seeping, spreading, and affecting more than the original need.
Much of his gestures stem from his ability to feel, visualise, and appreciate the miseries of society’s underprivileged and build livable lives for them from the ground up. He defies stereotypical projections of the billionaire as the shark next door, the deal-maker or the calculating prospector.
While his name may send chills down the spine of a bitter rival, he is truly warm and kind, and amiable even to his most virulent competition. There’s something about the feeling he imparts in all his acquaintances, that triggers a change in their circumstances.
From his humane approach to business to his selfless philanthropy, FO brilliantly humanises the intricate and savage world, upholding piercing truths about the infinite bounds of compassion.
If FO were crowned the richest man in the world today, it wouldn’t matter to him. He had never been a sucker for worldly and ephemeral titles. He knows them to be worthless and transient. Thus he’d keep doling out his fortune to nourish dreams and flesh the hopes of the starving.
If you ask him, he would tell you that he has not lived in a day, until he has done something for someone who can never repay him. His footprints are prevalent in the humanitarian sector. An army of donees and devotees hang on to his beneficence. Unassuming yet indomitable, he redefines philanthropy and affluence.
At the tweak of his vision and the flick of his finger, the stock market soars or swoons hence he redesigns the paradigm of industry too. Contrary to pervasive notions of affluence that hold most billionaires as glassy, shallow creatures, furloughed from reality all the time, He is unmistakably different. FO is compassionate in a beneficent, unrelenting sort of context. 🎉🎉🎉
