To say Oando Group Chief Executive Officer, Adewale Tinubu is not a stranger to success is stating the obvious. He is the proverbial man with the Midas touch of gold.
Wake him from his sleep and ask him any question on business- most especially oil and gas – and you will get a spontaneous answer.
The intelligent business mogul with a series of achievements started from a humble beginning before becoming a reference point in the oil and gas sector.
So, it is not unexpected with the success of Oando Plc, Nigeria’s leading indigenous energy group, under his watch since it berthed 25-years ago.
Recently, the firm under the watch of Wale Tinubu has scored yet another first as it has become the first Nigerian company in the sector to receive the prestigious ISO 27001 Certification from Certification Partner Global FZ LLC.
ISO 27001 is the international standard outlining best practices for information security management systems.
According to sources; “The certification also means that the company can provide its stakeholders with a higher degree of confidence in the quality and stability of data security and further validating the company’s commitment to the highest standards of information security.
The honour comes as a commitment by the management towards managing business compliance and operational risks associated with the use of information systems and digital assets.”
The source further added, “The investment in ISO 27001 enterprise security framework has allowed us to structure and implement modern security controls completely and cohesively thereby strengthening our data and information system governance.
Essentially, the certification aims to establish and put in place good information security practices across the Oando Group.
The certification is proof that the Company’s systems and processes have been audited against international best practice, positioning Oando as operating to global standards.”
