Adewale Ajala Nominated for the Prestigious Clevenard Media Award 2025

Palma de Mallorca, Spain — For the first time, the vibrant Mediterranean city of Palma de Mallorca will host the Clevenard Media Award 2025, spotlighting excellence in entertainment, entrepreneurship, fashion, innovation, and community empowerment.

This landmark event will bring together visionary entrepreneurs, creatives, government figures, NGOs, and community leaders from around the world to honor those who transform society through leadership, courage, and dedication.

Among this year’s outstanding nominees is Adewale Ajala, one of Africa’s most accomplished media visionaries.

As founder, publisher, and chief executive of Opium International Magazine (Africa), Ajala has built a publication that sets benchmarks for quality and style in entertainment journalism. The magazine’s blend of sophisticated design and narrative depth has earned it a respected voice across Africa and beyond. Its broadcast extension, Opium Op Africa TV, carries the same hallmark of distinction, reinforcing his reputation as a leader who consistently delivers excellence across multiple platforms.

Ajala has redefined the way media is conceived and presented. For him, every publication is more than information — it is a crafted identity. By uniting compelling content with visual sophistication, he has demonstrated that storytelling achieves greater impact when paired with elegance and precision. This approach has elevated Opium International Magazine into a brand of authority and aspiration, admired for both its substance and its style.

Born in Lagos and raised in Nigeria, Ajala pursued advanced studies in communication, marketing, broadcasting, commercial advertising, and digital marketing at the University of Texas at Austin. This academic foundation, shaped across two continents, equipped him with the global perspective that now defines his work. He combines African roots with international reach, positioning himself as a cultural bridge between regions.

Through Atlantic Media & Investment Consulting, he extends his leadership into reputation management, event organisation, and investment advisory. The firm reflects his ability to guide not only media enterprises but also institutions and individuals seeking to enhance their image and influence. His work in human capacity development has earned him recognition as a strategist who builds both people and platforms.

Ajala has also been the driving force behind landmark forums and conferences that bring entrepreneurs, executives, and cultural figures together. His record includes:

• International Business Women Conference (London)
• Nigeria–Dubai Business Women Forum
• Yoruba International Convention (Dubai)
• Africa Women Entrepreneurship Forum
• Gender-Friendly Recognition Awards (Nigeria)
• African Tourism Conference (in partnership with Titlas Consultant, Dubai)

These gatherings illustrate his talent for convening leaders, shaping dialogue, and promoting empowerment across gender, geography, and industry.

From Africa to North America and the Middle East, Ajala is recognised as an international speaker, host, and journalist who inspires ambition and drives performance. He motivates entrepreneurs and professionals to reach higher, achieve more, and contribute meaningfully to society. His career embodies the belief that African talent and ideas can command global respect when presented with clarity and confidence.

In every sphere, Adewale Ajala has set standards and raised expectations. He is more than a publisher or strategist — he is an architect of influence, building media and platforms that project excellence, foster empowerment, and ensure that Africa’s voice resonates on the world stage.
