Alabi stated: “He was in excess of an Ibadan industrialist. He was a Nigerian and global man. He isn’t in the class of a regular representative. Boss Bode Akindele’s level is past commonplace agent. He was into land business. He was into account. What’s more, he isn’t restricted to Nigeria. He had plants in Africa, Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States of America. He had effects in enterprises he played in. He offered work in thousands. Akindele built up the economies where the organizations are found. … ”
However, he added magnanimity to his own. In the event that an individual could spread his hands to such limbs, and made an immense achievement, there is no reason for government or corporate bodies not to succeed.”
