Adenuga is 597 with a net worth of 2 billa

How come there is no Ibo on that list


I guess, like Nigeria, Forbes is discriminating against Ndigbo.


I think the Nigerian consulate in NY should protest. Where is Dora Akunyili when we really need her


We must not stand for this injustice

Delusionary deranged! How have their successes contributed to your success? Truth be told, he is more likely to help Peter Odili's child than you; because you are not in the same league with him.So only speak for yourself

Treasury looters are not on the list.

When they start a list for "army robbers" I'm sure he will be there, along with the Gadhafis of this world.

Allah has really blessed our Brother Alhaji Aliko Dangote .

We thank our African,Nigerian,Hausa Brother for really putting Nigeria on the map for his hard work.

May Allah and all Nigerians be pleased.

It is the other way around. Dangote and Adenuga should be thanking Nigerians for making them stupendously rich.

So na who be the maga? na all of una be the maga minus Dangote and Adenuga

igbo boy:

So na who be the maga? na all of una be the maga minus Dangote and Adenuga

That is a weird way of looking at it. No one is the maga. Nigerians must have been loyal customers to their companies for them to succeed as they have.
You too can do it if you have something Nigerians want. Just don't do it with the mindset of a "guyman".

What have I got to say, for God sake which everybody (at least in our clime) claim to serve , I cannot fathom why anybody should be jealous aabout the good results obtained from any opportunity that presents to another man and he uses it wisely. for a good benefit.

Dangote is someone I will respect for a long tinme and would definitely like to emulate and even pray to have the same insight and vision so as to be able to uttilise the opportunities that abound in my enviroment.

Some says is it only him? I want to say why did n't others place themselvwes in the same position so that they may be recognized. Whoever says that should also ask himself in any situation  be it family , job, affluence, beauty, strength and any other aspectthat you have an edge over others , why me? truely why you,  a single spermatozoa out of  a population of over 300million sperms ( of which about 180million are equally viable and capable) from the ejaculate, was able to fertilize the egg from yur mum and why is it only you that survived till date/

fOR YOU TO GET ANYTHING FROM THE KING( abacha, babangida, obj, obama, buhari Clinton, Jeffersson, lincoln etc) you must be seen to be able to deliever what they want. Kiss the prince(king) less he be angry with you, that's what the bibkle says. Do your work before the king with delligence , trust and conscience. Daniel in the Bible cannot be succesful had it not been that the king required his personality to be so. If you know what it take s to be a prince not to talk of a oprime minister in the ancient days , then you'll realise that there would be stuff that these men (Jsesph, Daniel etc) would have done  in day to day activities( not interms of corruption and likes oo ) that if viewed by these days standards, would have viewed termed in the light of Dangote and Adenuga.

Can it be linked that any one of them and most other credible business men stole even remotely from government coffers. rather rhan celebrate them, are we not celebrating Bastrds from  our  ethnicity, tribes, states, towns villages and brothers whohave done nothing but looted, and flaunting the wealth primitively before our korooro eyes,  worst of all, do not have any economically beneficial investments in this country but got the money stashed in foreign banks. Mcchew!

These human beings understands the real art science and acts  creating"real" wealth and making "real"money and above all create employment and food on tables of many (ja and africans.
Someone mentioned earlier, "when the maqchines are hummming, the Dollars keep rolling in". that's what's up not meer trading. What the machines humms are needs not wants. Self sustenance.
Most of our people had the opprtunity too but ehat did they do "ego trip". So those hating and b, s, ting should just learn and pray and listen rather than continue these ethnic chauvunism and what have you.

I will soon make that list

i think these people are to be celebrated. their investent has contributed to the development of our country; most especially, they have created employment that even our so called government cannot provide.
may God bless them for investing in this country and punish all those who have loot this country to develop other countries with abundaant sorrow.

Methinks Dangote, like Adenuga (inter alia) might hv bn pipes thru which past and even present corrupt leaders hv wired national treasuries and are still probably wiring.

If this is how u recognise wealth, then there is wahala!

Trust me - Nigerians know the TRUE billionaires!

Good for him, but his rise in Forbes list does not raise the human development index in our dear country.[color=#990000][/color]

another rich slowpoke gets attention!

Did u guys notice on the list that so many people are making money off real estate?

and i checked d list i didnt see Adenuga as 597#, wat number is he if u r sure pls!

Kudos to them for putting nigeria on the list!

congratulation to Mr Dangote ,Mr Adenuga and Nigeria we wish to see more Nigerians on the list next time

in d next 6 years i pray dat i will be as rich as aliko dangote

Richest black skin alive.
I need the hook-up!
Who know am?

Now, I am angry. 

Dangote this, Dangote that. Igbo there, Yoruba here, Hausa bla bla.

You internet tribal warlords are here making noise as if it is Dangote that runs the plants, package the products and market the goods. The guy employs workers from all over
the country to generate his wealth.

Dangote and Adenuga are one of the most detribalized Nigerians you will come across in this country. These guys are rich and we can celebrate them now, because they chose to go for the best brains in their industries and pay them well.

They have "think tanks", young men and women (Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba etc) who are paid good money to come up with business ideas and strategies to actualise them.
Our problem in this country is that we always want to personalise issues, and if that doesn't work, we go the tribal way.

Do you think Dangote or Adenuga, and the rest are smarter than the average Nigerian? I don't think so, but they chose to harness the resources (materials, people etc) around them to actualise their goals and make good money for themselves.

Don't make these guys into some kind of demigod that are so smart and all knowing. Lets celebrate the young Nigerians who are part of their management teams, and who are actually doing the work and making the money for them.

I salute the Nigerian workers. 

this is Nigeria and anything can happen

Dangote and Adenuga, I'm ready to be your 10th Wife. Are you guys still taking applications?

kalokalo:

It WAS Lafarge and NOT Dangote that petitioned Obasanjo about Ibeto. The policy was that only importers with evidence of cement backward integration would be allowed to import and Ibeto was not moving towards manufacturing. I

Please kindly stop cooking up stories. The issue i rised happened immediately OBJ had one of those his paddy paddy meetings with his election bankrollers. The reason he gave for closing down IBETO's factory was that it was being used to smuggle armes into the country.

This happened few months after he had boosted that niGERia will soon produce business men who will make it to forbes list.

It is the habit of some Billionaires of this era, I mean monopoly, and "baba-kere", last year I was in Numan, in one Indian Sugar company now bought by Dangote, I wasnt surprised when during our chat about businesses in Nigeria and some big and major potentials in sugar and cement industries one of the Indian management told me that, Dangote insisted and have so much interest in their company after intensive research by their business consultants/expert they found out that if they didnt co-operate might be the end of their business (that company) in Nigeria, so they were left without option but to parner, I don't know may be 50-50, anyway somehow now Dangote has the largest share in the company.

Being a Billionaire by forcing other to co-operate or sell their company is not a good thing at all, so whenever his name mentioned in the media I always remember what that Indian told me about him. Its pity.
