Nigeria's Top 10 Richest People
« on: May 19, 2007, 03:30 PM »

This is MY current list of Nigeria's top 10 richest men.

Jimoh Ibrahim - Nicon group
Aliko Dangote
Femi Otedola- zenon oil
Wale Babalakin- bi-coutney
Cicilia ibru-   Oceanic bank
Jim ovia-  zenith bank
Tony Elemelu- Uba
Ladi Balogun- Fcmb
Shehu Dantata- Dantata group
Fola Adeola

Next week i will be putting together the top 100 richest people in Nigeria.

But can we ask ourselves what exactly this people have done to help fellow needy nigerian, apart from some scrappy employment with disgusting pay.
  This is a thread i will like Nigerians to contribute to and discuss how the young generation can beat and surpass this mark.
  Goodluck everyone.

Its really sad only few of these peoples antecedents can be properly verified,some have acquired these wealth through corrupt means.We all know this but its nice to know at least they are contributing back to the society from which this wealth was stolen.

 I woneder how we think that Bank CEOs own their banks. How caould Elumelu , Ibru , Ovia and co be on that list. Its just like Fetus Odimegwu being richer that NB Plc.  These CEOs are bank workers not majority share holders. get it folks.

You guys have it all wrong! The richest man in Nigeria is dead. He is and still would be late general Sani Abacha. Where where you guys when they wife Mariam declared that even if the federal government seizes all the money they can lay their hands on, they can never be as poor as Dangote.

Hey People, I don't think bank most bank CEO's should be on this list. Moreso, we need to affirm the basis (i.e. yardstick) of your rating. Grin

I think you may be mistaken,most of the Bank CEOs are major shareholders the Ibrus own close to 40% of Oceanic ,Fola Adeola was a major shareholder in GTB,FCMB is majorly owned by  the baloguns ,same for Zenith etc but I quite agree that the richest people in Nigeria currently  are Yar'Adua & Goodluck(+their wives)

Bill Gates is rated the richest in the world based on his business empire/network.  it's impossible to rate a person on how much 'liquid cash he has because' u can't estimate how much cash one has( not realistic).
Based on business empire, Dangote Rules. Remember Aliku Dangote is one man
Bank CEO's are not as rich as u think they are, they don't own the bank, they are just major shareholders doing deals with other people's money. Igbinedions' sick/grounded okada air, his school and anyother business he has is like a pinch of salt compared to Dangote empire.
Rich thieves e.g Abachas, babangidas,Usenis etc should come out fully and compete with dangote. we say they front people, how do we verify???
I bet if Forbes magazine ever considers 'richest in Naija' they won't look into peoples account, they only consider business network/empire.
Dangote is not the richest nigerian in de world because' theres Harry Akande and Deinde Fernendez ( both of them were once in the first ten ) but in naija, DANGOTE RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can anyone tell me how enlightening this particular topic is. Nairalanders please get more educating with your topics and leave these money bags alone.
Better still learn from the economic policies of creating your own wealth.

This thread sucks Tongue Tongue

I wonder who has time to be argueing about who is richer and who is not. Some posters paid their hard-earned money to be singing dangote, yar'adua, bla bla bla.

Where are you on the list? Angry Angry Angry Angry

Guys, Folks now ask for female employees rather than simply requesting for CV's from applicant. Could this be genuine or just to get around for fun. Why shld famale Accountants be prefered to males. This is not logical to me.
