Business magnate, Femi Otedola still uses old phones

Femi-Otedola-DJ-CuppyBy Patricia Uyeh

The competition is real for those who desire to drive the latest cars, live in the biggest mansions and even have the latest gadgets.

This is not the case for super billionaire, Femi Otedola. The business guru is very much comfortable with his old phones. According to those close to him, he is very attached to his old Nokia phones, that in local slangs are called ”palasa”.

Even one of his daughters, Temi had posted a photo of him  displaying the phones on snap chat with the caption ”old school”.

Apparently, he is not concerned with the latest models of phones released daily.

Otedola is the founder and Chief Executive Officer of Forte Oil Plc and Zenon Petroleum and Gas Limited, FO Transport and Seaforce Shipping Company Ltd.

In 2014, he was acknowledged as the 29th richest man in Africa by Forbes.
