Bio
Boluwatife Odufuwa
Yewande is a great leader, undoubtedly. She is brilliant and kind and visionary. She has an uncanny ability to clearly chart a roadmap to the preferred destination and carry all her team members along. She also excels at achieving excellent outputs and outcomes while facilitating a healthy work environment. It was a huge privilege to work with her and I remain confident that she would be an asset to any team.
Afolabi Akinrogunde
One of the brightest, most diligent people I’ve had the pleasure and honour of working with. Yewande joined the All On Investment Team at a critical time in its history. She was a key and critical member of the team which, using a combination of sheer grit, and excellent deal-making and portfolio governance nous, enabled our team deliver the excellent results which characterized All On’s stellar corporate performance in 2022 and 2023. Her follow-up, risk identification and management and technical skills resulted in the excellent management of over 10 portfolio companies and the direct delivery of no less than 5 solid deals within a 1-year period. Her inventiveness, attention to detail and ability to synthesize ideas and concepts to create and protect value were deeply useful and valuable. I don’t know how I could have delivered without her. Thanks for picking up the loose balls Yewande. Thanks for being who and what you are. Wishing you continued success.
