Below is the profile of the newly appointed General Manager of Lagos State Signage & Advertisement Agency(LASAA), Prince Fatiu Akiolu.



Gatekeepers News reports that Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State, Southwest Nigeria appointed Prince Akiolu as LASAA’s helmsman after considering his contribution to the advertising industry over the years.


Prince Akiolu is not assuming the position because he is the son of the reigning Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu but more because of his background of professional commitment, relationship humility and corporate hard work cum accomplishment.


He founded Regno Media (an outdoor media company) based in Lagos. The success of Regno Media is a consequence of Fatiu Akiolu’s dynamism and result-oriented focus as an entrepreneur with experience in sales, marketing, strategic planning, wealth/clients/projects management and ideas implementation.


The bonafide Prince of Lagos has a knack for driving growth and excellence, building team spirit coupled with his resource management abilities.


Prince Akiolu holds a BSc in Business and Finance and an MSc in International Business and Management from De Montfort University, Leicester in the United Kingdom. He is also an Associate Member of the Advertising Practitioner Council of Nigeria (APCON).

In February 2015, the Lagos Prince attended the University College London Leadership and Management Course.


The new LASAA Helmsman has over 10 years of experience in out-of-home advertising. Since establishing Regno Media Limited, Akiolu has successfully stayed ahead of the competition by developing innovative strategies to improve service delivery and consistency. He also sits on the board of various blue-chip companies.


The Lagos Prince has also built successful foreign strategic partnerships with outdoor media business partners in China and other parts of the world.


Prince Akiolu is well accustomed to the dynamics and challenges of the outdoor media sector in Lagos. Being a member of outdoor media bodies, he has been able to proffer solutions to some of these challenges. One of the articles he wrote in October 2020 in the Business Year magazine was a testament to his in-depth knowledge of the outdoor media in Lagos and Nigeria as a whole.


He equally has an intense passion for community service and has over the years given back to the community through different schemes and orphanage donations through his company.


Prince Akiolu has proven corporate track records in companies including Creston Incorporated Ltd, United Kingdom where he was a Design Associate Intern from September 2005 to April 2008: He returned home and served in Ibile Holdings as Marketing Executive between May to August 2008.
