We at T.I.N Magazine have taken our time to compile and rank the richest people in Nigeria like we did last year June 2015. Well, within the last 12 last months a lot has happened to the Nigerian economy and a lot of people have dropped in worth only a very few increased in their worth.

The ranking was set based on the Real-time Forbes estimates of the richest personalities in Nigeria and other credible net worth raters. some people's ranking might have been judged based on 2015's most recent ranking by Forbes due to the fact they have not declared their assets and they haven't been looked into since then.
