How Oil Tycoon, Kola Aluko Spent $1.5M In Hours On Champagne In US by igbsam(m): 6:58am On Nov 14, 2013
A Nigerian oil, gas and aviation tycoon, Mr Kola Aluko spent about $1.5 million in a few hours at Leo ­DiCaprio’s star-studded birthday bash.

The Multimillionaire businessman Aluko, a co-founder of the Made In Africa Foundation who was recently seen lunching in Paris with Naomi Campbell, was among a group of wealthy businessman who bought bottle after bottle of champagne at ­DiCaprio’s 39th birthday party at Tao Downtown late Sunday night.

Other big spenders at the lavish fete included “The Wolf of Wall Street” producer Joey McFarland and Texas businessman Nate Paul.

Musical icon, Kanye West was paid $100,000 by DiCaprio, personally, to perform.

The actor raised more than $3 million on the night for his charity the Leo DiCaprio Foundation by adding a hefty fee on top of all the bottles, plus donations from his wealthy friends.

One guest told us, “The party was wild — wall-to-wall models. There were probably 20 girls to every guy. Leo started the night with a dinner in a private room and then joined the party around midnight.

“Danny A, who hosted, would get on the ­microphone and announce who placed the champagne order and for how much, .?.?. then a train of 100 bottles would come out with sparklers and girls dressed in burlesque [outfits]. Kola Aluko may have spent up to $1.5 million in one night.”

Danny A is the guy who famously fell afoul of George Clooney by “talking [bleep]” during a basketball game while on Leo’s team.

Our spy reports, “2 Chainz performed, then Kanye surprised Leo and performed a full show of about 10 songs with DJ Jus-Ske including ‘Clique’, ‘Good Life’, ‘Power’ and ‘All of the Lights.’ Kim Kardashian was singing along.”

Comment: God punish poverty in Nigeria! So much money but people can't see because of gullibility and mind set! I see money everywhere!
