Adeniyi was born into an average family. The early years was not filled with the luxuries of childhood. Father was an average income earner while mother was supposed to be taking care of the kids at home until we all started school. Meanwhile Mum engaged in petty trade.
One story that mum would never stop telling, was her last day of trade at the popular mile 12 market. Everything was going well with her trade until she noticed her son, Adeniyi, was missing. Her fellow market women/men went into disarray. The market gates were monitored, everywhere was searched, until they noticed a woman who had covered the barely 3yo with her hijab trying to sneak him out of the market square.
We grew up in an extremely queit neighborhood which had, close-by, a major road with high traffic. Mum bought some deep freezer, stock with different bottled drinks. Street hawkers did business with us. At an early age, the 2 grown children, Adeniyi & Adejoke helped mum out with the trade. When the 5 children had started primary education and mum started teaching in a nearby Primary school, the 2 children handled the business once they came back from school, with the help of Margaret, the help.
Adeniyi's passion for business had developed from an early age. Little wonder he dived straight into business when he finished his Tertiary Education. Adeniyi joined Glo Nigeria to learn the tricks of the telecom business. Upon equipping himself with the needed wisdom to excel in the trade, he branched out and started trading in telecommunications.
Hephzibah Communication, the company he founded became recognized as one of the major dealers in Nigeria right from the second year of business. They traded in all telecommunications collaterals and with all telecom operators in Nigeria. He, as the owner, was highly acknowledged by the operators. He was involved in several strategy meetings, across the globe, on how to move the telecommunications business to the next level. Adeniyi was an entrepreneur par excellence.
In 2016, Adeniyi started a Large scale industrial farming. He wanted to be involved in feeding the nation. He had a poultry farm, which before his death, boasted of over 30,000 birds. The piggery had no other match in the whole west of Nigeria. The farmland which was on a 100hectare boasted of varieties of foodcrop and cashcrops.
Adeniyi had passion for business and excellence, such that at a single meeting, any body would always want to meet him again.
He was also a core Humanitarian. He believed in the Human race and would render help to anyone even without them asking. In all, he had 4 blood siblings, 3 sisters and 1 brother, but several other acquired brothers and sisters across the globe. Adeniyi, did everything to gain Heaven.
