My professional work experience began with a mandatory one-year National Youth Service (NYSC) with Omokhodion Associates/Tropical Publications Limited (1991 to 1992).

I was engaged in 1993 by the Punch Newspapers Nigeria Limited as a Consultant/Editor (Property & Environment Desk), there I set up the property and environment desk and cut my teeth in the Noble media profession.

Between 1993 and 1999, IMOLEHIN worked as an Architect with Designlines Consultants.

In 1999, I worked at the Petroleum (Special) Trust Fund (PTF) as Director, Community Education Programme for the entire Southwest.

A native of IPELE, I was born in the early sixties to the family of Mr. and Mrs. IMOLEHIN in Owo, Ondo State, Southwest Nigeria and began my early education at St. Andrew’s Anglican Primary School, Owo from 1970 to 1975 where I obtained my First School Leaving Certificate.

I obtained my West African School Certificate Examination (WASCE) and General Certificate Examination (GCE) from the famous Aionian school, Imade College, Owo.

I am a great thinker, achiever, visionary and patriotic Nigerian and a global citizen of note and this makes expectations high as I assume office in a job which I am well cut out for.

It is the recognition of my value and worth as a chartered Architect, notable and celebrated environmentalist, popular change advocate and accomplished media/development communication specialist that I was honoured on Tuesday, November 30, 2021, by President Muhammadu Buhari administration with the position of Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to the Honourable Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Mallam Muhammad Musa Bello on Environment and Waste Management.

My love and knowledge of Abuja is well-documented through my contributions to the media, business development and community education in the FCT.

Expectedly, my appointment has been generating a lot of positive reactions from not a few across the country.

Writing on Facebook, Emeka Oparah, Vice President, Airtel Nigeria said:

"Congratulations, Bro Truly well-deserved. At last one damn good round peg in a round hole. We will be looking out for you and also looking at you-our own person. God be with you!"

Also contributing, Edward Adebanjo, top PR practitioner, remarked:

"Congratulations. Round peg in a round hole. Praying for God’s guidance and for outstanding success!"

Ben Onoh, an admirer and academician had this to say of ME:

"I learnt all I know about the Environment through Tunde’s popular TV programme on AIT. In fact I make bold to say that Tunde IMOLEHIN taught me how to bag and sort my waste."

In his own submission, Biodun Omolayo, owner of the popular Biodun Omolayo Arts Gallery had this to say too:

"CONGRATULATIONS, my dear friend & brother, Architect Akintunde IMOLEHIN on your new appointment to serve and do publicly what you have been doing consistently privately for the environment over the years! You’ve got the requisite trainings and skills needed to perform, you designed and produced programs on television (on AIT & others) for the environment & allied matters.
