Beyond any doubts, Sijibomi Ogundele, the Chief Executive Officer(CEO) of Sujimoto Group/ Sujimoto Construction Company, an amiable and charismatic boardroom guru remains one of Nigeria’s young billionaire business tycoons dictating the pace and setting the tunes in global construction value-chain.
A colossus in his chosen field of endeavour, Sijibomi Ogundele delved into the construction sector with the vision of revolutionizing the African luxury real estate sector. He is vehemently hellbent in transforming and revamping the continent’s real estate investment space, adhering to the norms that ‘charity begins at home’ by working assiduously to change the biographical creativity of the Nigerian homes and properties ownership.
At 43, Sijibomi has redefined the Nigerian real estate sector, conceptualizing the Gulliano By Sujimoto and Lucrezia By Sujimoto, arguably the jewel and tallest buildings on the highly octane and powerfully highbrow Banana Island. These projects, which were already sold out before completion Sujimoto’s stance on luxury and the company’s penchant for only the best. Dr. Sijibomi Ogundele’s creative and unique touch on the Nigerian construction and real estate sector can never be underrated or ignored. He single-handedly orchestrated the ideologies behind the conceptualization of Lucrezia, the ultimate convergence of art, architecture and lifestyle, the most talked-about condominium in Nigeria.
Additionally, Sujimoto Construction Company nurtured a mind-blowing project in Banana Island, a waterfront combination of ultra-luxurious townhouses. Each townhouse comes with a private elevator, with its exterior wrapped in Parian Marble, bringing ancient aristocracy into modern architecture. The project is inspired by an Italian icon who went from being the son of a wool trader to being one of the greatest bankers in the 14th century. The Giovanni di Bicci de Medici project would be one of the best terrace houses that ever existed on the face of the earth.
There is no doubt the fact that the amazing creative ingenuity of Dr. SIjibomi Ogundele is massively felt all over Nigeria and the African continent at large. He has practically transformed the Lagos geographical view with ‘jaw-dropping’ architectural masterpieces, establishing classy housing units and redefining luxury through innovative designs. Sijibomi, who has been featured by Forbes Africa as a brave young entrepreneur, an astute business strategist with powerful international network, built his strong brand through unvawering and untiring hardwork, resilience and optimum commitment to quality service delivery. He has, over the years continually built a solidified international network of business partners that have inspired his success stories and expanded his business tentacles beyond the shores of the African continent. With dint of pliability and perseverance, Dr. Sijibomi Ogundele has established his monstrous construction presence in countries like France, Ghana, Spain, the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia, having luxury apartments and offices in Paris, Accra, Madrid, Dubai and Riyadh respectively.
Call him a man with the midas touch, whatever Sijibomi touches in the construction and real estate sector turns to gold. He is a distinguished construction tycoon who also sits atop Sujimoto Group, a company blazing the trail in international business partnership such as Fortune 100 Company, the world’s wealthiest non-royal family group of companies in the Middle East. The maverick businessman was greatly inspired by Professor Sujimoto Koga, a Japanese academic who encouraged him to believe in himself and take on life as it comes. Those were the messages he adhered to and eventually turned out to be Africa’s biggest property owner today.
This young, effervescent, uniquely creative and amazingly ideological business tycoon stands tall as one of Nigeria’s most magnanimous personalities, controlling the construction and real estate sectors with distinctive and exclusive properties.
His new project on the bloc currently dominating the country’s real estate sector is the Leonardo on Banana Island.

Obviously, the Lenorado is built for the upwardly mobile business tycoons who desire quiet and peaceful abode. The project will also be the first residential building with (2) 5-Star Culinary experience, first high-rise residential building with helipad that allows HNI’s to shuttle through the sky at ease. Practically, the Leonardo competes favourably with its counterparts in Paris, New York, London and Miami.
