February 21, (THEWILL) – Last week, Otunba Niyi Adewunmi waltzed into the 70s club without any fanfare. The Octogenarian who is a close pal of Globacom chairman, Otunba Mike Adenuga preferred to usher in his new age with prayers and a breakfast thanksgiving session at his Lekki phase one home. In attendance were very close friends and family members as well as pastors from the Redeemed Christian Church of God, City of David parish, led by the senior pastor in charge, Idowu Iluyomade. It was a small and solemn gathering, which was very unlike how he shut the city of Lagos down with fanfare, years ago when he gave out his daughter, Shola Adewunmi in marriage. Conspicuosluy absent was his close friend, Adenuga who is hardly ever seen attending events put together by his close circle of friends. A graduate of London City Polytechnic where he obtained a Higher National Diploma in Business Administration in 1978, Otunba Niyi for many years was a non-Executive Director of the former Equitorial Trust Bank Limited. He is currently the Managing Director of Worldspan Holdings Limited as well as a director Globacom both companies owned by Adenuga.
