Candidate background
Public record & biography
Adewole Ebenezer Adebayo is a Nigerian lawyer, entrepreneur and founder of KAFTAN TV. Born on 8 January 1972, he comes from the Ondo Kingdom. His official biography describes a legal career focused on international investment matters, with work involving clients and proceedings in several countries. It also records his fellowship of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators and his chairmanship of the Africa Dialogue Mission.
Adebayo’s business interests span broadcasting, farming and pharmaceuticals. His published profile identifies roles with Agbede Agric Projects, SAI Phytochemical and Blueprint Global Group. It dates the relocation of some of his businesses to Nigeria to 2016 and describes KAFTAN TV operations in Ondo, Lagos, Abuja and Washington, DC, including Yoruba- and Hausa-language broadcasting.
His political involvement predates his presidential campaigns: his biography records that he joined the Social Democratic Party in 1991, aged 19. He contested the presidency on the SDP platform in 2023. The same source describes education sponsorship and broadcast training through his businesses as part of his activities outside legal practice.
