Having conquered the oil and gas industry as well as the public service, Ronke Sokefun, perhaps for want of a new adventure, has found a way to plug into the boom the real estate business is currently experiencing.

The cerebral socialite has been tapped by Olawale Ayilara’s Landwey Investment Limited, a real estate company, to be the chairman of its board of directors. Ronke must have been convinced beyond reasonable doubts before agreeing to chair the board of Landwey Investments. Only last year, 34-year-old Ayilara was in the news over allegations of his company’s inability to deliver homes to individuals who already made down payments.

He however denied the allegations, insisting that his company was simply going through some challenges he referred to as the burden of construction in Nigeria. Recently, the company announced its latest project called Isimi Lagos, the first wellness technology-powered eco city which offers a serene space for both living and working, to its long- and short-term citizens and visitors. A humongous project no doubt, it will be a testament to Ronke’s acumen garnered over the years when the project is finally completed.
