@thecommaeffect: A masterclass in visionary leadership and succession planning. Most businesses struggle to survive their first decade, but Dr. Solomon Kayode Onafowokan built Coleman Wires and Cables to outlive him. By shifting from importing to local manufacturing and executing a strategic 24-year succession plan with his sons, George and Michael, he built West Africa’s largest cable manufacturing empire. Success isn’t just about building a great company, it’s about ensuring it thrives for generations.

That is great! The company produces quality products. Unlike, the self acclaimed developers who specialize in fake and adulterated products.

This is great. Succession is one of the problems African founders must be educated on. Many African founders loose their company at their death. Whereas in developed countries, we have companies running long through more than four generations and still waxing stronger. Ekene Dili Chukwu was a renowned transportation power house in Nigeria, but it died when its founder died. Same with Concord Airlines and many other great Nigerian companies. We need help in this area.
