Kindly speaking, the richest blackman on planet earth is a nigerian according to forbes rating and his name is Alhaji aliko Dangote. estimated 3.6 billion dollars.but truthfully he his worth much more than that, and I can authoritatively say that Naija has three other Billion dollar mogul based in Nigeria in person of Papa Pady Aka Otunba Mike Adenuga, Mr Jim Ovia AKA Mr Zenith and Boy Femo, Aka Zenon Oil. just to say a few. considering the likes of Dr Otudeko, who ownes Honeywell groups and has been making money before I knew how to spell the name of his wife, Aunty Bisi in IB, Abeg, learn from the likes of Jack Welsh and you go suppass any achievement this bros and co, don make.

Since there is no official statistic, the best answer you can ever get to the question is guess work.

I think It is A.K.A $egeluga $ Alhaji Aliko Dangote, follow by Adenuga , it is not okay

okay here it is:

OFFICIALLY, Aliko Dangote

UNOFFICIALLY, IBB

I think oba otudeko is the richest man in nigeria

Dear nairalander,
i really enjoyed been here. but the point is are we talking about the riches business man in Nigeria or politician ? Dont go near riches unlegal politicians because they are many.

Politicians are not rated among the riches men in US, so why are we rating them here, pls Count them out. Though politics is a business of who wins and who loss. But is a bad game.

We have top internet Guru in Nigeria who are making legal money online until UBA arrested some of them and handed over to EFCC for interrogation, these are the people we should be talking about.

If you really want to access riches men in Nigera go to US and start counting them because they are many.

I agree with seun. You can't call most of the naija "billionaires" rich, becos their business empires are on foundations of heavy debts. Is it jimoh Ibrahim dat's loosing it now, or Dangote dat's a heavy borrower.

The fact's dat most of "naija richest" would die and pass on heavy debt to their children, instead of fortunes. These guys are just virtual 'bank vaults'.

If you must point out one as the richest, then it would be one of those political armed robbers and democRATS. Talk of OBJ, then ur begining 2 make sense, then call IBB, then there you come. Apart from these rogues, the only real billionaires would be bank CEOs like Jim Ovia, Tony, Cecilia, etc.

The rich can only get richer

I hope u're still not under illusions of these Bank CEO's you are parading as Billionaires,   Just tell them to  return the loot back to govt. as to expand our economy.

how do u know d richest man? is it after he has so many unserviced bank loans?

The ones you hear about are all debtors, Only those who do not owe the banks any kobo
should be celebrated as Richest Nigerian. You and I inclusive only if you are not owing the banks i mean.

U guyz can say wat ever u like BUT the next richest man in Nigeria come 2010 is Ben Oyeyemi ceo of PipCity FX International. he is currently making XXmillion per month and compounding by 50% monthly. Dukascopy manager.

So Mr. A is the richest man in Nigeria, what is the usefulness?

We celebrate so much of deceit in this nation. People just like show-off.

All those men y'all mentioning are not the richest men, They are just earthly riches that would perish sooner or later. The richest man is the man that has got Christ in him, He who walks in the way of the Lord and obey His commandments. The blessings of the Lord lasts 4ever,
