Comment: This article has been undergoing review since 2022, as such, there are things that need clarity. For example, it looks like he's no longer the "group chairman" per https://oduainvestment.com.ng/board-of-directors/dr-segun-aina-ofr/The entire "Career" section is still unsourced and this article is about a living person and as such, must follow the necessary policy. The "Early life and education" section is also under-sourced. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 15:40, 8 March 2024 (UTC)
