Kunle, son of Chief Michael Ade-Ojo, Chairman of Toyota Nigeria Limited (TNL), is set for a new hurdle. In recent years, Kunle, who is currently the Managing Director of TNL, has had a predictable schedule. However, with his father announcing that he would soon be stepping down from the day-to-day running of the company, there is indeed a gap to be filled. And by who else than Kunle?

But despite his father’s endorsement that Kunle would be a good replacement, there are still those who question his ability to conveniently step into his father’s big shoes when the man retires in less than two months.

Several scions of billionaire businessmen have failed to live up to expectations when faced with the responsibility of managing their father’s businesses. Will the young man join the list or prove his skeptics and critics wrong?

Kunle trained in the United Kingdom (UK) and worked in the United States (US) before joining TNL. He is a graduate of Mechanical Engineering from the University of Reading, UK and holds an M.Sc. in Automotive Product Engineering from Cranfield University, also in the UK.
