Adedeji Adeleke, Davido’s father, is indeed a powerhouse in Nigeria’s business scene. As the CEO of Pacific Holdings Limited, he’s been making waves in various industries.
Now David’s father is taking on the energy sector with an impressive project – building the largest thermal power plant in Nigeria, valued at $2 billion and set to launch in January 2025.
Ekwutosblog gathered that his new venture will reportedly generate about 15% of the electricity used in Nigeria, significantly contributing to the country’s power needs.
Given Adedeji Adeleke’s track record as a successful entrepreneur, it’s no surprise he’s taking on this ambitious project.
