APFFLON was created to serve as an advocate of Ease of Doing Business in AFRICA – Otunba Ogunojemite.

Otunba Frank Ogunojemite is the President, Africa Association of Professional Freight Forwarders and Logistics of Nigeria (APFFLON).

A reputable freight forwarder with Customs background. He is a friendly man with superfluous intelligence.

An illustration of handsomeness. He dresses well too to complement his look. As a typical Ekiti man, he did not disappoint when he said he loved pounded yam and vegetable soup.
