Peter A. Olaniran
Chief Executive Officer (CEO)

Peter Olaniran (a.k.a FabbyGee) is a highly accomplished IT professional with over 18 years of experience working with a major business applications software house. He is a software consultant by profession; businessman by choice and an advocate of God by calling. Peter began his career working for National Cash Register (NCR) based in Nigeria in the 80’s and then traveled to the UK to further his Studies in Computer Technology. Peter holds a Master’s degree from the South Bank University, London.

Since then, Peter has committed most of his life to Project Management and Business Development. His experience has now expanded over 15 years. He has worked in various capacities for known organizations such as Selfridges, GlaxoSmithKline, British Standard Institute (BSI) and Tesco. While at Tesco, Peter played an integral role as a member to a team of analysts that designed the Key Performance Indicator used in measuring and monitoring part of the e-commerce services provided and delivered by Tesco.com.

As the chief executive officer for unity1960.com he created this vision as a platform that will allow Nigerians and Africans in Diaspora to connect with their country. Before he relocated to the United States, Mr. Olaniran lived in the United Kingdom for over 20 years which is why he understands the importance and the challenge of keeping your identity as a Nigerian living abroad. Unity1960 is built with the mindset that even if you are living outside the country you can still enjoy connection with your country. Not only that, Unity1960 is also designed to serve the Nigerians that are born abroad. The new generation of Nigerian children born outside the country can now enjoy the display of their culture through this medium, which is why he designed the network as a way to educate as well as entertain the new generation of Nigerians born abroad.

Finally Mr. Olaniran identifies with the fast growing use of internet technology as a tool to connect, communicate and unite the World at large. With the use of this form of technology growing even faster in the continent of Africa, he believes it is important to leverage the internet to close the communication and the cultural gap between Nigerians and Africans living at home and for those in Diaspora. Ultimately, unity1960 will be a great platform to give a clearer picture of what it’s like to live in Africa!

Peter’s goal is to get to a point whereby one in three Nigerians have access to the internet and can listen to Unity1960.com.

Peter is currently based in Silicon Valley, California, enjoying all it takes to make his vision a reality.
