It is apparent from the comment quoted.

OPCNAIRALAND:
You guys dont know how to properly sample data at all.

You have to first partition into regions, then states, then locality.


In Western region for instance the state with highest number of wealthy individuals is Ogun State.

In Northern region the state with highest number of wealthy individuals is Kano State.

In Eastern region the state with higheat number of wealthy individuals is Delta State.

Delta, Eastern region??
since when, egbon?

Professor Scholes0 do you know my gif comment was deleted on this same thread and that of the guy who replied me was left? A laughing gif. smh

Something needs to be done to reverse a trend I am beginning to observe on this website, and that is why I wanted to get in touch- but then I became busy. Did you get my E-mail?

Anyway, does any one know the state Alakija comes from?

My village alone in abia has over 100 billionaire

The kind of thing one does to kill boredom...

These states should feature among the top ten.

1. Anambra. The state is teeming with moneybags and hard-punching moguls wherever you look. Innocent Chukwuma is at the top of the vast Nnewi billionaire club while the likes of Ernest Azudialu and Ifeanyi Uba rank among Nigeria's wealthiest men.

2. Kano State. This is the traditional seat of northern money empire. The Dangotes, the Mutallabs, the Abdulsamabs need no introduction.

3. Ogun State: The state with the highest concentration of boardroom kings in Nigeria. Roll call: the Adenugas, the Otudekos, the Otedolas, the Akandes...

4. Delta State: Preponderance of corporate czars. The list include the likes of Tony Elumelu, Jim Ovia, Nduka Obaigbena, the Ibru dynasty and others.

5. Imo State. A state worth its weight in gold in producing men of stupendous means but more or less overlooked.
Most people may not know that Tony Ezenna of Orange Drugs, Leo Stan Eke of Zinox and Pascal Dozie are from Imo State. There are also several billionaires especially from the Orlu axis of the state who hardly crave media popularity.

1. Aliko Dangote

Net Worth: $21.6 Billion

Rank In Nigeria: #1

Rank in Africa: #1 (#1 in 2013)

Heralded by some as the face of the new Nigeria, Aliko Dangote, Africa’s richest man, is looking beyond cement, sugar and flour — the three commodities that built his fortune — to the oil business.

In April he announced $9 billion in financing from a consortium of local and international lenders to construct a private oil refinery and fertilizer and petrochemical complex in the country.

In August he said he would invest $1 billion in commercial rice farming and modern rice mills.

His publicly traded Dangote Cement is also grabbing new markets in Africa, with $750 million in new plants planned for Kenya and Niger.

1 fom Anambra, Psquare

1 from Delta, Don jazzy

flinspiero:
.

In my town in Anambra alone, you will count more than 200 billionaires...(I mean real billionaires)

Anambra should be number 1 in that list.

you mean blood money men n drug pushers who can't declare their access in public.huh. No wonder bush don grow pass many mansion for east

specco:
I think Anambra, Ogun, Delta, Kano, Abia and others.
We are not talking about a state where 15 or 20 individuals stick out as money bags amongst the teeming poor.
In Anambra you can count the moneybags in their thousands.Nnewi town alone has over 50 billionaire business
men and women and other towns have theirs as well.
IMHO I think Anambra takes the lead as the state with the highest number of indigenous billionaires in Nigeria.

Those blood money business men in the east who only front a small shop.

OfoIgbo:


Anambra will have more than 20 dollar billionaires, and over a thousand dollar millionaires most of whom don't make noise. Nnewi alone will have up to five dollar billionaires.

There is no way Kano will be able to outrank Anambra in this list, in spite of the presence of Dangote

We are talking of money that can be declare not blood money n drug pushers money.
