Encomiums as Oyin Adeyemi  Celebrates Birthday

There is a way someone like Oyindamola Lami Adeyemi is celebrated. The air would be thick as business leaders, policymakers, and close associates gather around her, fully committed to enjoying with her an evening of refined elegance, marked by heartfelt tributes, fine dining, and animated conversations about this woman whose influence transcends industries.

The guest list would read like a who-is-who of Nigeria’s elite, including living legends from construction magnates to financial tycoons. And these individuals would all share in common an unmistakable sense of admiration for Adeyemi.

For those who may not know, Adeyemi’s ability to thrive in traditionally male-dominated sectors has earned her a rare kind of respect. Unlike many who inherit influence, she carved her own path—first in banking, then in real estate, before establishing Still Earth Holdings. Even now, every venture she touches takes on her peculiar charm and blazes across the horizon. But it was not always like that.

In the early years, Adeyemi stepped into many waters and juggled many roles. Then she moved sideways, sliding into the construction sector. Since then, her career has taken on a sharper, glinted edge.

She is best known today for Still Earth Holdings. With landmark projects spanning infrastructure, finance, and real estate, the company has become synonymous with integrity and innovation. This is all because Adeyemi cultivated a corporate culture where professionalism meets purpose, all so her legacy would not just be in structures but in opportunities created for others.

It is why, beyond boardrooms and business deals, Adeyemi is a firm believer in empowering women. She has been vocal about gender equity, pushing for policies that bring women into leadership positions. At Still Earth, inclusivity is more than a corporate principle—it is a lived reality, where women are encouraged to lead and excel.

All of these reasons are responsible for Adeyemi’s halo. They are why, every March 19, super individuals gather around to toast to a woman who is defying norms, redefining leadership, and inspiring a generation in her own unique way.
