Seun Olatunji Expands Brookfield Group Holdings Across Africa with Multi-Billion-Dollar Ventures
Nigerian business mogul, Oluwaseun Yusuf Adebola Olatunji, popularly known as Seun Olatunji, is scaling his company, Brookfield Group Holdings (Africa), into new frontiers across the continent, with investments cutting across mining, real estate, aviation, hospitality, oil and gas, and agriculture.
Founded and solely owned by Olatunji, Brookfield Group has grown from a modest real estate venture into a multinational conglomerate with interests stretching from Nigeria to the Gulf and Asia. The company is currently facilitating multi-billion-dollar gold trading operations and pursuing public-private partnerships in infrastructure and property development across Africa.
Olatunji, born on July 15, 1982, in Ile-Ife, Osun State, began his entrepreneurial journey after earning a Diploma in Computer Science from Obafemi Awolowo University. Following a stint in the United Kingdom, he returned to Nigeria in 2006 to establish Soltun Development Ltd, a real estate company that laid the foundation for his current success.
His personal fortune, estimated at US$310 million in 2025, has been built largely on gold trading, real estate, and construction. Olatunji now divides his time between Lagos and Abuja, while also expanding operations into Ghana and other African markets.
Beyond business, Olatunji is known for his philanthropic efforts in education, youth empowerment, and community development. Married to lawyer Bamidele Olatunji, with whom he has six children, the 43-year-old entrepreneur continues to attract foreign partnerships aimed at strengthening Nigeria and Ghana’s positions in the mining and real estate sectors.
With his growing influence across industries, Seun Olatunji is being positioned as part of a new wave of Nigerian entrepreneurs shaping Africa’s global business presence.
