Tolani Alli @tolanialli


When purpose calls, you answer

After a quite meaningful time serving at the African Development Bank, where I had the honour of documenting impact across the continent, I begin a new chapter with the @WorldBank , working alongside its leadership team, and contributing to a broader global mission.

This isn’t just a career shift, it’s a continuation of purpose: to tell the stories that matter, with care, with context, and with conviction.

Thank you to everyone who has walked with me on this journey so far. Here’s to new beginnings, and the power of stories that move the world.

And to God; Hmmmn, dear Father, you are the ONE who gets the ALL!!! 🤲

Tolani Alli was the official photographer to Governor Abiola Ajimobi of Oyo State. She then served as the official photographer to Vice President Yemi Osinbajo.

Since 2023 she has been the official photographer to the President of the African Development Bank, Dr Akinwunmi Adesina.

Tolani Alli is an acclaimed documentary photographer whose images and stories have been featured on BBC News, World Press, The Guardian (U.K), Bella Naija and more.

A distinguished alumni of The University of Michigan, she credits her photography journey to a chance interest in a camera after watching an Aston Kutcher cannon commercial while battling a grave illness. As her true ion for photography emerged, she transformed from being medical school bound to becoming obsessed with photography and telling stories with her lens.

Between September 2013 and December 2014, Tolani Alli worked as a Software and Hardware Technician at Apple in the United States. Before her employment at Apple, she worked as a Health Specialist in Genesee County, Michigan.

Cool and good for her.

But why is it called world Bank?
Who are the people that established it and tagged it world bank?
Do they have branches across the world? Where is their branch in Nigeria?
Because USA likes forming international with everything. Even a small basketball tournament organised by a regional local government will be tagged international.

I would have flooded this thread with her legendary photos, but Nairaland now limits the number of photos that I can post.

It's originally called International Bank For Reconstruction And Development (IBRD). "World Bank" is its nickname. It was founded not just by the United States of America, but by a comity of nations.

I guess you didn't take Economics in your secondary school.

It is unfortunate that those are the species one argues with on Nairaland.

You see some posts and you wonder if God created those ones too.

if its Nigeria, she wont be appointed or employed, based on quota system, nepotism, tribalism and religion.
