Over the last sixteen years, the widely experienced Wole Ogundare has led projects in the power, solid minerals, telecoms, financial services, health, agriculture, public sector and retail, with expertise in systems strengthening, revenue assurance, strategic planning, process reviews, monitoring and evaluation, knowledge management and corporate finance.

A Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria and Certified Financial Auditor, Wole Ogundare has benefitted from several relevant trainings both within and outside the shores of the country including the London Business School, UK as well as Witts Business School and Thomas International, South Africa, among others.

In his new role, Wole Ogundare is expected to spear-head the strategic growth plans and profitability of Yudala – a revolutionary composite e-commerce company, whose bold expansionary model and futuristic fusion of online and offline platforms has effectively positioned as a potential sector leader in Nigeria.

Mr. Wole Ogundare took over from Dave Ibelegbu, the pioneer Managing Director and renowned Third World corporate start-up strategist who has moved on to Research and Business Development interests in other fields.
