BlueMurder: If the thread title had been "75 year old Damaturu billionaire weds 28 year old...", this thread would have reached its 6th or 7th page now with near-insane cries of "child abuse", "women abuse", "barbarism", "backward people", "terrible religion", etc, gushing out of the mouths of posters who are at present, more or less, overawed.

Mr Aboki:


3 billion!!! Nigga Puleeze..

His 2012 turnover for just one company was over 400 Billion Naira..

Mr Aboki:

I'm not celebrating him at all.. as I know how he gets the jobs that gives him money..

His reputation (at least for this his particular company) is very bad.. But that does not affect his account balance.


And it would take more than a tiny issue to bring him down. When you are that wealthy, you play by a different set of rules. Even Cecelia Ibru is not poor, despite the mess she created for herself. I have dealt with many companies and sorted them out, but this guys matter is a hard one for me to crack. The guys connect seems to be very tight and the people backing him in government are highly placed.

His ways are very crooked..

Paentera:

Chairman, I appreciate your need to give us an insight into the perceived wealth of Sir Offor. However lets do a small analysis - my YE results for my business was easily almost N50m, does this make me automatically a millionaire in tens of millions, NO. There'll be cost of sales, e.t.c thus using the turnover to justify his networth and by extension his wealth, is misleading. My networth using my shares in my business is easily in tens of millions no doubt, but for a private and unlisted company, this is hardly justifiable, as there might never be a need to sell off these shares therefore limiting the use of networth valuation (which is what I suspect you are trying to do).

Since you have the correct figures, why not analyse objectively and analyse his wealth with these figures rather than pulling figures out of nowhere that are bound to mislead.

Jman06: All Nigerian billionaires have government backing! Don't make it seem as though it's only Emeka Offor. All of them including Dangote, Otedola, Jimo Ibrahim etc are cooperate thieves.

ochilikoko: Emeka Offor is not a Billoniare.He is a Trillionare

He owns oil well in Sao tome Principe. His company was involved in failed IPP contracts awarded by OBJ. Emeka Offor is all that's wrong with Naija politics. Friend with any government in power AGIP.

livapul86: I truly envy Sir Emeka Offor. The reality is a wealthy man as him would Always get want he wants.

No one made bigger bucks in Africa in 2013 than the continent’s richest man, Aliko Dangote. The Nigerian cement, sugar and flour mogul saw his fortune soar $10.1 billion, or 79% through Wednesday, the 31st of December 2013. The biggest catalyst was his Dangote Cement shares which has experienced a 74% run-up over the last 12 months. He is now worth $22.9 billion according to FORBES’s most recent statistics, up from $12.8 billion at the end of December 2012.
Aliko Dangote
2013 was a roller coaster year for Dangote. In April, the 57-year-old tycoon announced that his Dangote Group, West Africa’s largest company, would construct a private oil refinery in Nigeria. When completed, it will have a refining capacity of 400,000 barrels per day and will reduce Nigeria’s dependence on oil imports. Dangote’s name attracts big money, and several local and international financiers quickly lined up to back him on the project. He subsequently raised $4.5 billion. He is also aggressively expanding his publicly traded Dangote Cement across the continent, announcing plans September and October to build new plants in Kenya and Niger at a cost of $750 million.
The second biggest gainer in dollar terms in 2013 was Angolan investor Isabel Dos Santos, the eldest daughter of Angola’s president. FORBES’ estimate of her net worth grew by $2.8 billion during 2013 to $3.7 billion, but not because her wealth grew dramatically over that period. FORBES was able to uncover and verify more assets owned by Dos Santos, 41, between December 2012 and August 2013; and wrote about those assets here. She is now Africa’s richest woman.
Nigeria’s richest woman, Folorunsho Alakija, controls Famfa Oil Limited, an oil exploration company that owns a lucrative stake in the Agbami deepwater oilfield. FORBES puts her net worth at $2.5 billion, up from $600 million in December 2012, after she first appeared on the FORBES list of Africa’s richest people. Her increased net worth is a result of new information made available to Forbes on the true value of her company’s interest in Agbami, information that has been verified by analysts in the industry.
Africa’s wealthiest media mogul, Koos Bekker, CEO of South Africa-based media giant Naspers, saw his fortune nearly in the past year –from $450 million to $1.2 billion — as a result of a huge run-up in the stock and additional stock purchases by Bekker. Naspers’ shares rose more than 100% in 2013.
In the case of Abdulsamad Rabiu, Africa’s newest billionaire, we estimate he is $550 million richer than Forbes’ estimate in December 2012, primarily because Forbes Africa was given exclusive access to new information regarding his holdings.
