In a strategic leadership transition, Mouka Limited, Nigeria’s leading sleep solutions company and a subsidiary of the Dolidol International Group, has announced the appointment of Chief Oladimeji Adekunle Osingunwa as its new Managing Director, effective March 17, 2026.
The change comes following the resignation of Mr. Femi Fapohunda, whose departure became effective on March 16, 2026, following a mutually agreed decision with the company’s Board of Directors. The Board expressed profound gratitude for Mr. Fapohunda’s contributions, highlighting his steadfast leadership during one of Nigeria’s most challenging economic periods.
Under Fapohunda’s stewardship, Mouka not only navigated economic headwinds but also strengthened its market leadership, expanded its share, and reinforced its reputation as a trusted household brand. “Femi’s strategic guidance ensured Mouka emerged stronger and more competitive,” the Board remarked. “We thank him for his invaluable contributions and wish him success in his future endeavors.”
A Proven Leader Steps In
Taking the reins, Dimeji Osingunwa brings to Mouka a wealth of experience and a deep understanding of the company’s operations. Since joining Mouka in 2016 as Chief Commercial Officer, Osingunwa has been instrumental in driving growth, enhancing brand presence, and shaping the company’s commercial strategy.
Before Mouka, he held key roles in leading multinational organisations, including Cadbury Nigeria Plc (now Mondelez), SC Johnson, and Twinning Ovaltine, building expertise in commercial strategy, route-to-market development, brand building, and sales leadership. His leadership style is widely recognized for fostering high-performing teams, accountability, and a collaborative corporate culture.
“Dimeji is a true son of the house,” the Board stated. “His knowledge of our business, proven track record, and strong leadership values make him the ideal leader to guide Mouka into its next phase. We are confident that he will bring both continuity and renewed energy to our strategic ambitions.”
Driving Future-Focused Growth
Osingunwa’s appointment reflects Mouka’s commitment to a future-ready strategy emphasizing innovation, customer experience, and deeper market penetration. Under his leadership, the company is expected to accelerate its mission of delivering quality sleep solutions while preserving its longstanding legacy of trust and reliability.
Commenting on his new role, Osingunwa said: “I am honoured to take on this responsibility at such a pivotal moment in Mouka’s journey. Our strength lies in our people, heritage, and commitment to quality. Together, we will continue to build on this strong foundation, drive innovation, and deliver exceptional value to our customers and stakeholders.”
Continuity and Confidence
The Board reaffirmed its confidence in Mouka’s leadership team and workforce, emphasizing that the company’s strategic direction remains unchanged. With a culture grounded in collaboration, resilience, and excellence, Mouka is poised to maintain its industry-leading position and continue setting benchmarks in sleep solutions.
As Mouka embarks on this new chapter, stakeholders are encouraged to support the transition and share in the company’s vision of improving lives through quality sleep.
With over six decades of industry leadership, Mouka Limited continues to manufacture premium mattresses, pillows, and sleep products for millions of Nigerians. As part of the Dolidol International Group, headquartered in Morocco, the company remains committed to innovation, superior quality, and customer satisfaction.
