The Billionaire Who Sees Tomorrow … Why Femi Otedola’s Friends Call Him ‘Prophet’

All right-thinking human beings can indeed appraise the past, picking through it to determine the various ups and downs of everyday life. However, the future is left to the fated and the skillful, even though it holds all the treasures that time has to offer. For Femi Otedola, a man acknowledged for having the keys to this treasury, one can only throw a humble salute in his direction.

Things are getting weirder among the critics determined to show Otedola as a businessman with ordinary investment instincts. From standing in a position to oppose his apparent genius, many of these critics and public commentators have been converted. It seems that even they have been converted to become his fans, sitting on the edges of their chairs to see him make predictions of the corporate world and rake in the profits.

Despite his apparent grasp of all things business, past, present, or future, people have never been able to put his talent to words until his 60th birthday. The felicitations at that time were accompanied by the recognition of his apparent capacity to read the future. Thus, he was described as a spiritual man, a lover of God, and a prophet.

Granted, Otedola may not be able to predict the future and tell you that an earthquake is bound to happen somewhere at one period or another. However, if you are interested in determining where you pitch your investment tent, Otedola is just the man for you. He has proved time and again, leaving his peers to imitate his investments.

There is no arguing that Otedola is brilliant. His generosity puts self-acclaimed charity giants to shame. Nevertheless, this ‘prophetic’ mantle of his is something worth pondering and researching. Should it be determined that the fond title of ‘business prophet’ that his friends call him is something they believe in, one might have to stand behind Otedola to learn about the future of business.
