A product of dailymail:

Nigerian oil tycoon, Michael Prest, 51, lost a legal fight with his estranged English wife today in a landmark court case over a £17.5m divorce settlement. The Supreme Court ruled that properties owned by Michael’s companies did count as his, and therefore should be counted as his assets in the high-profile divorce battle between him and ex-wife Yasmin, 50.

Lawyers say the decision, which overturned an earlier Appeal Court ruling that Mr Prest's companies could not be taken into account when calculating the divorce payout, could have significant implications for divorcing couples.

This morning's Supreme Court judgment, which followed a hearing in London in March, was the latest round of a lengthy legal battle between the couple, who married in 1993 and spent most of their time in their £5m matrimonial home in London's Maida Vale.

If you must marry an oyinbo woman, marry her in Nigeria, under Nigerian law. So painful to see one useless woman cart away a fortune she did not contribute to in anyway.

This man was GREEDY... he did mago mago and hid asset worth £2.5bn and declared that out of £37.m he could only offer £2m to the ex wife.

The Court did the right thing.

He must have married her in his mother's womb then. He was born into a wealthy family, which set the foundation for his wealth (assisted by his intelligence and acumen). His wife had NOTHING to do with any penny he earned.

He started his investment with the $10k he inhereted from his father will (or the $10k the father left him and his siblings, you make it sound as if he was related to Sultan of Brunei
