Top Oil Magnate, Funsho Lawal, Glides Gracefully into 69

As the clock strikes midnight this Thursday, July 11, 2024, it marks the beginning of a new chapter in Otunba Funsho Lawal’s life.  The day will not be just another day in the life of the billionaire oil magnate,  he will be 69 on that day. No doubt, he will be celebrated to the high heavens by his family, friends, business associates, employees and beneficiaries of his benevolent gestures, at home and abroad. Many would also pen down sweet and heartfelt messages for the man who has impacted the lives of many

While the tales of his childhood, which have yet to be documented in black and white, may only be knitted by his parents who witnessed his vagitus on July 11, 1955, his inspiring journeys from the University of Wisconsin Madison, US, has, however, exposed him as a potentially successful man and pride to his family and his society.

Society Watch gathered that the Chairman of Sogenal Oil & Gas will be throwing open his doors for this once-in-a-year purpose.

For Lawal, who is also the Maaye of Ogbomoso, rising to the pinnacle of his career was definitely no small feat. There was no shortcut to his success. He climbed the ladder one step at a time until he attained his well-deserved affluence.

Indeed, his birthday is worth celebrating. His Creator has been good to him. Providence has granted his heart’s desires, he has been blessed with money in abundance, a thriving business that competes favourably with others around the world, and he is blessed with a good family of whom he is proud.
