Mr Olagunju was one of the architect and drivers of BoI’s outstanding turnaround and transformation into one of Africa’s best Development Finance Institution (DFI). He was also actively involved with the reconstruction of NIDB into BoI (2000-2001) and the consolidation of the mandates of NIDB and NERFUND into that of BoI and worked closely with the Federal Ministry of Industry and Messrs. He coordinated the diagnostic study of the Bank that was undertaken between 2004 and 2005 by the Swedish Consultants (Messrs. Swedish Development Advisers) who were appointed by the African Development Bank and furthermore, played a pivotal role in the implementation of their recommendations that formed a vital input into BoI’s paradigm shift that triggered the bank’s rapid transformation in 2006.
