Engr. Dr. Funmi Ayinke Waheed – Adekojo is a woman of many parts. A woman who is an exceptional achiever at such a young age, yet she never stops from giving of herself and her resources to the poor and needy.

Funmi Ayinke spends hundreds of millions of Naira to help the vulnerable in the Nigerian community.

The young industrialist has paid 10,000 students tuition fees; some are placed on scholarship by the Funmi Ayinke Humanity Foundation and they are spread across the nation. She travels as far as the hinterlands of the crises ridden north adopting children, especially the girl child for her scholarship programmes and the cranny of the Creeks of the Niger Delta to help guarantee more poor children good education.

Funmi Ayinke empowers widows and has brought smiles to the faces of many through her Funmi Ayinke Humanity Foundation (FHF). She never forgets how difficult life was for her mother after her father died.

She has so far empowered over three thousand widows through her Funmi Ayinke Humanity Foundation, (FHF).

Beautiful Funmi is always found of saying: “I was not born with a silver spoon, I wasn’t born with even a wooden spoon. We were poor and that is why I can never forget my past. I am led to help by the circumstances and obstacles I had to overcome. I will continue to help and give as much as I am blessed”.

Engr. Funmi Ayinke’s energy level is almost super human, if she is not on one of her numerous engineering projects, Mama, as she is fondly called by her numerous constituencies, which include youths, widows, young women displaced by crises, the under privileged, the needy and about anyone in need, this woman with a heart of Gold, is in the studio, waxing master pieces, songs targeted at social engineering, capturing societal ills and changing the value system.

This living super hero also finds time to reach out through her social media pages, specifically Instagram where she has a hoard of followers. She has one of the most popular Instagram TV shows where she gives motivational talks.

She is such an enigma, a woman who treats Superstars who support her and the common man on the streets with equal respect and dignity.

Her industrious nature has endeared Engr. Funmi Ayinke to her Engineering profession that she keeps bagging awards. Besides her Doctorate degrees, Fellowships in her field and her professional body, Funmi Ayinke has been crowned Africa Best Rated Engineer of the Year, 2021 by Classic Africa Merit Award, CAMA.

Africa’s Best Rated Engineer, Funmi Ayinke Waheed Adekojo, AA Billionaire at 38:
A graduate of Mechanical Engineering from the Ladoke Akintola University, Ogbomoso, Funmi Ayinke is a young Billionaire silently making waves but the rippling effects are felt all over the ocean.

Would it surprise you that she is the Patron of the National Union of Nigerian Students (NASS)?

She is indeed the formidable woman to whose credit is the fact that her authority and wisdom is so respected that the NASS is now focussed on worthy activities and there are less violence in campuses across the nation.

Her love for the sciences has seen her actively involved in the STEM project. STEM simply means Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) being embraced by many Nigerian educational institutions to prepare students for the new world of technology and science.

Born on May 27, 1983, Funmi is married to the humble and amiable, cerebral Professor Waheed Mufutau Adekojo and they are blessed with children.

… as FG endorses consolidated guidelines

Sahara Weekly Reports That Today, in a move to further revitalise the oil and gas industry’s contribution to the Nigerian Economy, Wale Edun, OFR, Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, presided over a signing ceremony at the Federal Ministry of Finance headquarters in Abuja endorsing the Consolidated Guidelines for the implementation of Fiscal Incentives for the Oil & Gas Sector – a cornerstone of the Presidential Directive aimed at enhancing the Nigerian oil & gas sector’s global competitiveness whilst stimulating economic growth.

As disclosed during the signing, the Presidential Directives were developed and coordinated by the Special Adviser to the President on Energy, Mrs. Olu Verheijen to ensure a competitive framework for the Nigerian oil & gas industry. These Consolidated guidelines for the fiscal incentives are based on extensive collaboration across Finance and Petroleum Ministries and involved several key regulatory bodies including the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS), the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC), and the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA).

According to Mrs. Verheijen, these new measures have been designed to deliver a competitive Internal Rate of Return (IRR) for Oil & Gas Projects and attract over $10 billion in new investments within the next 12-18 months. They also underscore Nigeria’s commitment to reaching its long term oil production target of 4 million barrels per day whilst enhancing the reliability of gas supply for to boost export earnings and fuel Nigeria’s industrialization.

Mrs. Verheijen disclosed that among the guidelines signed were the NUPRC Guideline on Hydrocarbon Liquids Content in a Non-Associated Gas (NAG) Field, essential for accurately categorising and quantifying the hydrocarbon liquid content in these fields. Additional guidelines focused on the applicability of tax credits and allowances for Non-Associated Gas Greenfield Development and the Midstream Capital and Gas Utilization Allowance, providing taxpayers with clarity on the computation of these benefits.

HM Edun, in his remarks, thanked President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for signing the directive in February 2024 to engender growth in the Nigerian oil and gas sector, which had stagnated for over the last decade. He also emphasised the potential of the guidelines, saying, “The idea is to create an atmosphere conducive to international competitiveness such that investment comes in. And in this case, we know it’s foreign direct investment”.

The signing ceremony was attended by various stakeholders, including NNPC Limited, Oil Producers Trade Section (OPTS) and the Independent Petroleum Producers Group (IPPG), further highlighting Nigeria’s unified approach toward reinvigorating its oil and gas sector.
