African Wealthiest Country And Poorest by Nobody: 8:12pm On May 03, 2017
The little African island of Mauritius
harbours the wealthiest Africans while
Zimbabwe has the poorest, according to a collaborative April 2017 report by
AfrAsia Bank and New World Wealth. The report shows that Mauritians are the
wealthiest in Africa, with $25 700 in
wealth per person. South Africans are ranked the second wealthiest people on the continent, with an average wealth per person of $11300, while Namibians come third with an average wealth per person of $10 200. Zimbabweans were ranked the poorest in wealth per person, with an average of just $200. The report shows that 34% of African ‘high net worth individuals’ (HNWI)millionaires in this regard) owned
residential property in other countries at
the end of 2016, and especially preferred international cities such as London, New York, Geneva, Sydney, Paris, Melbourne, Tel Aviv and Dubai. A large number of African millionaires
also buy homes in other African countries, most notably South Africa, the
report further reveals.
Notably, the majority of African millionaires reported to purchase houses in South Africa are from Angola, Ghana and Nigeria. The wealth advisory firm pointed out that “wealth per capita” refers to the average wealth of a person living in each country. Mauritius is also the top performing African country in terms of wealth growth over the past 10 years to 2016 –at 230%.

This isn't credible. Equatorial Guinea should've made the list of wealthiest per capita.

Came to read where Nigeria is ranked according to the poorest..
Re: African Wealthiest Country And Poorest by Macelliot(m): 9:58pm On May 03, 2017
There is difference between "most richest" and "most economically".
Nigeria is the most economically nation in Africa. same way America is the most economically in the world. While Qatar is the richest in the world.

Equatorial Guinea is the wealthiest country in Africa. They have a GDP per capita of over $14,000 and a PPP per capita of over $38,000 Both are higher than that of Mauritius and South Africa.

Don't pay attention to blogs, do your own research.
