About


Ba wo ni (“Hello”). I'm Ajisekanla, a Wikipedian since October 2007. Ajisekanla is a yoruba name which means "Arise and do great things!" I'm from Ijebu Igbo, Nigeria and have lived in Lagos, Nigeria since 1998. I was born in Islington, London and have lived in England and Nebraska.

I am pretty smart - entering University at 16 and earning my BSc in Business Administration and Management Information Systems in two and half years. I went on to study law - Juris Doctor and earn an MBA in International Business before my 21st birthday.

I have worked as an investment banker for over 25 years and currently run an investment bank that I founded which helps bring capital to businesses and opportunities in Africa. I have an avid love of the outdoors - I particularly enjoy exploring Lagos and have an almost encylopaedic knowledge of the state and the state's history.

I consider myself a global citizen and I'm fluent in English but can speak a bit of Yoruba, French, German, Spanish and Afrikaans. I am a committed christian and enjoy living a triumphant and saved life!

I mostly edit Africa and Nigeria-related articles. If you have a question about one of my actions, please ask me (politely) on my talk page.
