Eleojo Adejoh
@eleojoadejoh
I build strategic partnerships and financial inclusion programs across Nigeria’s development ecosystem.
What I'm looking for
At Wema Bank, I lead the NGOs, Donor Agencies & Embassies Desk, positioning the bank for large-scale humanitarian cash-transfer programming with partners including IRC, ICRC, Mercy Corps, UN agencies, diplomatic missions, and government institutions.
I've managed a portfolio of 40+ NGOs, grown the customer base by 7,000+ accounts, generated ₦4.5B in deposits and $1.6M in development-partner inflows, and negotiated a Katsina State Government MoU designed to empower 500,000 youth and women. I also led Wema Bank’s onboarding into the USDA GSM-102 Export Credit Guarantee Program and serve as Product Owner for a digital NGO–Donor platform focused on transparency, reporting, and funding access.
Through Vun4Free Initiative, I design and deliver multi-state empowerment programs reaching 10,000+ beneficiaries, with a focus on women-focused SMEs, livelihoods, grant delivery, donor reporting, and scalable community interventions.
