Verod Capital Management

Daniel Adeoye serves as Managing Partner and leads investment decisions, alongside partners Adekunle A. Oshin and Tomi Oshin. The firm operates with a hands-on partnership model, with principals taking board seats in portfolio companies.

Verod relies on its long-standing network in Nigeria and Ghana, built over two decades. The firm sources deals through direct relationships with founders, industry executives, and advisory board members, leveraging its local presence rather than a purely intermediary-driven model.

Verod targets growth equity and buyout investments, typically committing $10–$30 million per deal. It prefers majority or significant minority stakes, with board representation and active operational support.

Verod does not typically invest in real estate development, natural resources extraction, or early-stage seed-stage companies. The firm focuses on established businesses with proven cash flows and scalable models.

Yes, Verod Capital Management Foundation focuses on education and economic development in Nigeria. The foundation operates separately from the investment fund, with its own board and funding from the firm's principals.

The firm maintains an office in Accra, Ghana, and has made investments in both Nigeria and Ghana. While the West Africa corridor is core, the firm has selectively participated in portfolio companies with regional operations in other African markets.

Verod focuses exclusively on West Africa, specifically Nigeria and Ghana, rather than spreading across the entire continent. It takes concentrated positions in its portfolio companies, often holding majority or significant minority stakes, with a longer hold period typical of local growth equity.
