Our Team

The Great Team at GetfundedAfrica

Debo Omololu

CEO/Co-founder

What would you do if you knew you would succeed?

When he’s not enabling African start-ups, Debo can be found swimming, cycling, playing football and watching the action on Formula One tracks. He considers himself clairvoyant too.

Tunji Oke

Co-founder

Always be ahead of your game!

A goal getter and always paying attention to details. Tunji likes hanging out with friends and sky diving, he make a formidable leader at GFA.

Philip Uwumarogie

CTO

It is far easier to act your way into feeling than to feel your way into acting. Don't simply think, act!

Philips’s passions lie in reading, gaming and sports. His analytical mind makes him exceptional.

Grace Oluwalola

COO

Global Talent Recruiter, Business Strategy Leader, People Advocate, Content Creator, MC/Event Host

Grace is passionate with what we does and does it really good, her unparalle connection to the team makes her stand out.

Diana Teoh

Head, Investor Relations

Rejection is the beginning of a journey.

Diane enjoys all kinds of outdoor activities, sports, food and wine tasting events as well as coffee. Her extreme leg power puts her somewhere between the Incredible Hulk and Superman.

Nichole Letween Manhire

Head, Media & Brand Manager

The sky is too close to be the limit.

She loves swimming, watching documentaries and movies, and is enthusiastic about start-ups. Nichole’s chatting skill is as rare as it is essential.

Efe Ogundowole

Head, Learning, Skills & Development

We have control over OUR choice of thoughts, attitude, beliefs, values and behaviour…we can’t control others, but we can control how we react to them.

Efe relaxes through any one or all of her hobbies – reading, dancing and travelling. Her communication skills and kindness quotient stands this shero out.

Modupe Odesanmi

Head, Events

Treat others as you would have them treat you.

Distraction for Modupe comes in the form of designing spaces. An intuitive mind and the gift to dream about events before they occur confirms her other-worldly status. Her middle name might very well be Josephine.

Felix Madago

Head, Venture Building & Partnership

Ideas are like musted seed

You need to make sure you give yourself all the time because you only get one shot to convince anyone.

Adeboeyejo Seun

Full Stack Engineer

A great mind with gifted hands, Nothing is Impossible

Seun comes with a minders touch of proficiency with a committment to play his little role to change the world in his lifetime, this is part of the reason he is with GFA.

Morakinyo David-Olurinde

Admin

We move!

Watching football, driving and hanging out with friends count as his favourite past times. Morakinyo would also make a formidable counsellor with his encouraging and listening skills.

Ugochi Silas

Staff writer/Content creator

Learn, evolve and stay ready

Outside of work, reading books, listening to music and making music through DJ duties are activities she indulges in. And Mr. Fantastic will envy Ugochi because she has the ability to stre-e-t-t-ch herself past her limits.

Mark E. Yabrifa

Media Associate

Coke? Do you know what he means by this? Is it the slogan ‘Taste the feeling’?

In his spare time, Mark finds pleasure in jogging and praying. Cool gospel music is his superpower? Does he listen to, write or produce it? Could he please clarify?

Akinlabi Omolara

Graphic Designer

The impossible is the untried.

Omolara’s diversions begin with her designation – designing – before veering off to cooking (especially new recipes), meeting people, going on adventures and cycling. Her relentless quest for knowledge makes her a certifiable wonder woman.

Adeyemi Adetokunbo

Digital Marketer

It can only get better when you give it a trial.

Away from work, Adeyemi creates content, blogs and engages in community service. Her creative thinking skill marks her invincibility.
