Inside The £8.7billion Estate Deinde Fernandez Left Behind by JumiR: 7:06am On Jan 29, 2016
By JUMI RHODES


In his lifetime, billionaire businessman Deinde Fernandez was very close to all his children. At the age of 74, he married Kano bizwoman Halima in 2003. Despite marrying at that time, he ensured his children remained close to him. He was buried in September 2015 in Brussels, Belgium with some of his children in attendance, including his first child. Less than 5 months after Fernandez's burial, the relationship Halima has with the children may have gone sour. Halima had yesterday posted on Twitter a letter written in 2006 by head of the Olumegbon family(which the late Deinde Fernandez hailed from), showing that only her marriage to the late bizman is legitimate. This apparently did not go down well with 2 of Deinde Fernandez's children who are social media-friendly. Abimbola Fernandez posted on Instagram:



"Nigerians, I present the real Halima - not only is she a trash bag she also tweeted "go bury that whores ashes" my dead mother was cremated and not buried. One can only assume she's referring to dads children who were born of African American mothers in the above tweet which includes me. Go back to Kano and be with your family. You're not a part of ours and aren't entitled to anything. #WheresYaPapers? #YouHidTheWillInThatSafeRight? Didn't dad tell you he wanted to be buried back home? Why didn't you invite his children to his funeral? Why are you legally battling his heirs? Bleep outta here."



While Antoniette, another of Deinde Fernandez's daughter, replied that:



"Babes this is horrendous but hilarious. Don't let it get to you. Evil always shows itself up! Love you beautiful"


Let's tell you a bit about the £8.7billion estate Deinde Fernandez left behind. His millions flowed in daily from oil, gold and diamond interests in Cayman Islands, a British Overseas Territory, encompassing 3 islands in the western Caribbean Sea, and some of Africa’s mines. He was the first private Nigerian to lift crude oil partnering with major oil companies including Tenneco and Texaco. In Swaziland he once had a beef factory; in Angola he operated oil fields in Cabinda; and Geneva where he had a trading company dealing in oil and gemstones from Congo. Deinde Fernandez owns houses in choice destinations in USA, Belgium, Nigeria, and a French hunting château that once belonged to Napoleon Bonaparte. His 19th-century Chateau de Bois Feuillette, seats in 25 acres in Verberie, Picardy, 40 miles north of Paris, and is believed to be worth £15 million. He was a wine connoisseur whose wine cellar was worth £2 million.




Three private jets flew him between his properties. His newest private jet was a new Falcon 900 valued at over $40 million. Deinde Fernandez also had proceeds of the sale of shares in Sandcat Petroleum, Sanantonio, Petro-Inett, Sandcat Enterprises, View, Grantdale, Inuola, Sandcat Goldfields, Voguehope, Woods, Goldfields, Voguehope, and Petro-Inett Equatorial Guinea. He had bank accounts in Scotland, Ireland, Switzerland, France, Hong Kong, the Cayman Islands and the United States. Deinde Fernandez was a car collector, and owned a fleet of customized luxury cars including Bentleys, and Rolls-Royces. He owned the 150-foot headship yacht, Yemoja. These and more are some of the properties his wife and children will control.

Let them be peaceful. That woman was married legally by that man in Kano in 2003. Their mum is late, they should take her as their mum. They should all work peacefully together. There's more to life than properties. The Lord be with them.

Most Africans that are rich or wealthy hardly set up a legacy or prodigy reason their efforts to amassing wealth or riches becomes useless.
