Babafemi Akinsete

Principal Partner

Babafemi Akinsete, an experienced and versatile legal practitioner who exudes incredible brilliance, rare innovative abilities and unusual leadership competence is an alumnus of University of Lagos and Chartered Arbitrator. Akinsete has not only led an enviable professional life in law practice but has successfully presented himself as an astute Negotiator. Akinsete’s cutting edge expertise in courtroom’s advocacy is as enthralling as his drafting skills that are often brought to the fore in bill-drafting and speech-writing.

Akinsete who spent a considerable part of the early years of his career with the law firm of Wemimo Ogunde & Co acquired many of his fascinating skills in that firm. A unique Leader by every sense of the word emerged into a figure of a leading counsel, brand-builder and team leader. Akinsete successfully supervised Brand Development for the law firm of Wemimo Ogunde & Co. The task that involved Content Development, Clients-Management, Public Relations and Virtual projection (Through website and social network sites) took the law firm from his Lagos office to clients all around the world. Quite notable in the significance of this Brand Projection is the appointment of the Principal Counsel of that law firm, Mr. Wemimo Ogunde SAN as the Attorney-General of Ogun State.

Away from ‘Wig and Gown Experience” Akinsete has remarkably acted as a “social engineer” through his behind the scene participation in socio-political and political terrains. Akinsete’s innate ability to exceed goals and beat deadlines has made him to perfectly pass for a professional whose career moves at the speed of light! Perhaps the most fascinating part of this goal-getter who lives by the cliché “It’s not about the role but about the goal” is his rare ability to successfully lead a crop of equally brilliant, vibrant and dynamic professionals to a given goal at any point in time.
