Remi Adeleke joins One54 Africa for one of the most unbelievable stories ever told on the podcast.

Born into wealth in Nigeria, Remi reflects on growing up as the son of a powerful businessman whose vision and engineering plans helped create the land that became Banana Island in Lagos. He opens up about his father’s fight against government corruption, the mysterious circumstances surrounding his death, and how his family lost everything overnight.

Forced to move from luxury in Nigeria to poverty in the Bronx, Remi shares how he was pulled toward the streets before ultimately transforming his life — becoming a Navy SEAL, bestselling author, actor, filmmaker, and motivational speaker.

The conversation dives into Nigerian politics, corruption, identity, resilience, and the untold story behind one of the most valuable pieces of land in Africa.

This is a powerful story about legacy, survival, and refusing to let tragedy define your future.
