He was a pioneer staff of Guaranty Trust Bank. During his 8-year stint, he served and headed various positions in the bank, such as Corporate Banking, Retail Banking, Corporate Services and Banking Operations.
He is the President/CEO of Superflux International Limited, the foremost security printing firm in Nigeria, providing specialist secure print solutions to dub-Saharan Africa.

A publisher, notable knowledge contributor and philanthropist, Talabi will bring his wealth of experience and versatile business acumen to bear on steering VDT Communications, at the board level, to a soaring height.”
