Adebayo Ogunlesi Own London Gatwick And Edinburgh Airport. by ObiORBiafra: 6:22pm On May 14, 2023
If we talk now, mods will ban us... why is it that the people of SE hate to see a successful Yoruba man?

I've been trying to post the screenshots of his wikipedia page but been unable to do so... Nairaland has been picture shitty lately..

Well here's an excerpt from his wikipedia page below.

July 2006, Ogunlesi started the private equity firm, Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP), a joint venture whose initial investors included Credit Suisse and General Electric. He currently serves as Chairman and Managing Partner.[10]

In 2006, GIP bought London City Airport.[11] In 2009, GIP acquired the majority in London Gatwick Airport in a deal worth £1.455 billion.[12] The Nigerian press has given him the nickname, "The Man Who Bought Gatwick Airport."[6] GIP also owns Edinburgh Airport, which they bought in 2012,[13] and Nuovo Trasporto Viaggiatori, which they bought in February 2018.[14]

From the picture you posted there's vinci and there's GIP... GIP is Ogunlesi's company..

In July 2006, Ogunlesi started the private equity firm, Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP), a joint venture whose initial investors included Credit Suisse and General Electric. He currently serves as Chairman and Managing Partner.[10]

I'm having problem posting pictures.
What are you going to do with so much hate? Do you want to buy the airport? You may never visit any of the 3 airports in your life time. Why are you so bothered about the ownership?

Yoruba no be your mate get that into your skull... It doesn't end or begin with Ogunlesi, we've had Fela, Harry Akande, Sikiru Ayinde Barrister, we have Mike Adenuga, Femi Otedola, Wizkid, Davido, Olamide, Oshoola, Israel Adesanya, I can give you a thousand names you guys don't have a equal for. You don't even have an equivalent for Funke Akindele or bob risky. You can't hate your way out of it or even into it. Life doesn't work that way. You are the only people in Nigeria that hate Dangote and claim his money is federal government's money. Why? You claim you own the world. You don't come close to the Hausas or Fulanis wealth. You are the least in Nigeria in every ramifications, accept that and look for a way to help yourselves.

You people will never change. So, after busted the lies about Yoruba man owning Gatwick airport, you've run to open another thread? Just to continue deceiving gullible people?

Why not return to the main thread your asses are being whooped instead of opening another one?

Sorry to bust your bubble, he doesn't even own one.

Gatwick is owned by a different company that has 51% majority equity. The remaining 49% minority equity is controlled by another group that has ogunlesi in it.

You people should stop all these childish bragging and lies, it doesn't portray yorubas as honest people.
