Shelze Professional Services was established in 2011 with a singular conviction: that Nigerian businesses deserve advisory intelligence that rivals the best in the world. Founded by David Apaflo, FCA, FCTI, FIMC, the firm has grown into a multidisciplinary advisory platform serving public and private sector clients across Nigeria and West Africa.
We combine deep technical expertise with institutional knowledge to help clients navigate legislation, strengthen governance frameworks, and make informed strategic decisions. We are equally committed to building a professional culture that attracts and develops exceptional talent.
Shelze operates through six specialised practice areas: Shelze Assurance (statutory audit, IFRS & IPSAS compliance), Shelze Fiscal (tax advisory, NTA 2025 compliance, transfer pricing), Shelze Vanguard (financial advisory, valuations, corporate finance), Shelze Phoenix (insolvency & business recovery), Shelze DataLab (digital services, data analytics), and Shelze Learning (professional training).
Our operating principles are encoded in our name: Service Excellence, Honour & Integrity, Excellence in People, Loyalty & Confidentiality, Zeal for Innovation, and Enterprise as One.
Through the Greenstreet Foundation (foundation.greenstreet.ng), we invest in education and youth empowerment across Nigeria.
The firm and its professionals hold memberships with ICAN, CITN, IMC, BRIPAN, and are registered with the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria (FRC/2025/COY/571840).
