Nigeria’s richest woman, Folorunso Alakija, has revealed how the oil block which allocated and licensed to her company came to be the chief cornerstone in West Africa and Africa as a whole after initially being rejected by most oil companies years ago.

Mrs. Alakija also revealed how her company fought the government in court for 12 years over profit sharing and became victorious as she attributed the victory to God.

Below is what the Oil tycoon and billionaire shared on her social media page;

My encounter with the glory of God... When I got to my wit’s end, I covenanted with God for blessings in return for a life long work and walk with Him.

To say that I did not see HIS Glory come into my life would mean I have turned God into a liar. It is only God who could have brought me from the back burner to the front burner. He Himself orchestrated and organized by divine intervention, the beginning and continuation of our delving into the oil industry.

The oil block allocated and licensed to us was not wanted by any oil company; we accepted it by faith and it has become the chief cornerstone in West African and Africa as a whole. The Government came back to “take” 50% out of our 60%, but after a 12 year battle in court, all was restored to the glory of God.

God has continued to be faithful as to be expected and I am here today as part of my fulfillment of my obligations to that covenant.

Therefore Receive the anointing to prosper. Receive the anointing for God’s Glory. Receive the anointing for God to single you out for upliftment and promotion.

Don’t lose heart, don’t lose hope……………Await that coming glory upon you in Jesus Name AMEN!

How can one single person own an oil bloc? Something that is supposed to belong to a community or an entire state? Yet, all the communities around this oil blocs continue to live in penury.

If I say you're stupid now, it'll seem as if I'm overreacting. So, Igbos too don't own oil blocs in the SS? Abi, tell us what the South East g to Agriculture, Revenues from Oil and Tax.

Statistics have shown over time that Igbos are the biggest parasites in the country.

Compare and contrast the economic relevance of Enugu and Imo with that of Abuja, Kano, Rivers, Lagos, Ogun and Akwa Ibom.




""So, Igbos too don't own oil blocs in the SS?""


Can u list the igbos that own oil blocks in the SS?

Meanwhile only 1 Igbo man owns an oil block in nigeria.










It's crime for 1 individual to own oil blocks that can feed an entire state for hundred years. It's pure evil.

fulani tribe , resources is cow, sheep, goat, horse. they have 100% control of it, they don't pay taxes for every cow sold, government do not collect royalty for grazing and feeding.
but government will come to southern nigeria and be taking vat, taxes, land use, royalty from southern Nigerians and be living large on it. I support the control of resources of each state by itself. they will charge taxes on alcohol, brothel they will share it for northern states and if you want to open brothel beer parlour for north you will be hearing haram and sharia. what is the economy of northern nigeria generating into the federal government purse.

Mouthgag thanks a lot.

I can assure you that this woman has never been to this area in the last 15 years. Yet the owners of the land and its recourses have nothing to gain from it.

Nnamdi Kanu was hated because he said the truth. Thieves and lazy parasites want to continue to steal from the SS/SE due to a corrupt political and military system.

Cursed is anyone who supports the continuous exploitation of these lands for the benefit of strangers.
pls wat are they stealing from the south east.

=EazyMoh=I thought northerners owned all the oil blocks.
The North owned the entire country not only the oil blocks.
By the way, madam alakija was formal fashion designer to mariam babagida. She got the oil block partially own by the babangida's through the late formal 1st lady.
Oga it's former not formal.

The wealth of a people is stolen and given to a stranger and you call it the blessing of God?

Is this why there is a loud cry for one Nigeria. So that an unjust structure will continue to benefit from where it shouldn’t?

No wonder Adeboye, Oyedepo and co conveniently steal from the poor all in the name of God!

Nigeria remains a cursed country as long as people think like you!!!



you are a deluded nonentity.


your kind would be quick to praise a tinubu & you come here to open your trashy trap.


she has gotten her wealth & nobody has come forward to say she did 419 or pushed drugs or held a political office to enrich herself.


you retarded hypocrites can insinuate all you want about here connections to those in power at the time, but fact remains that every major billionaire in Nigeria enjoyed one form of government patronage or the other.


so rather than hate on her, go do something worthwhile with you pitiful existence...

Meanwhile only 1 Igbo man owns an oil block in Nigeria

Look at a Yoruba talking we have Igbo speaking ss in rivers and delta
Restructure Nigeria with resource control and let's see how many people will remain in your Lagos
Look at a parasite calling oil owners parasites go to obigbo, ndoki, egbema, oguta, etc the oil they produce there is helping your parasitic tribe
When a motion was moved in the house of assembly for oil companies to relocate to there area of operations, the sw people fought against it, bc they know the effect of it on there Lagos,
They fought against the Igbo's in Biafrans war so they can steal part of the oil money and develop Lagos with oil money, Eko bridge , stadium ,national theater and several structures
You have the same faith with northerners as the poorest regions that is why you always cooperate with them, your faith has been determined already ,restructuring will expose your poorverty stricken region
Nothing in this world will make me see you Yoruba's and core north as an ally , you will always remain my enemies, my prayer is let my children not be in the same country with yours in the future, remain in your lands and let me be in mine, go your way let me go mine own way,I hate you and the core north so much it irritates me to be called Nigerias with you people
I can't stand you people, you all make me sick











It's crime for 1 individual to own oil blocks that can feed an entire state for hundred years. It's pure evil.
