Re: Who Is The Richest Man In Nigeria by GNature(m): 7:20am On Feb 13, 2007
casper,

I think IBB is richer than Dangote. Dangote's net worth is estimated at $1.5Billion to $2 biliion.

Don't you think IBB is worth more than that ?

daznitro:

the richest in nigeria matter of fact is olusegun obasanjo

Very very likely considering the fact that he was also the oil minister for over 7 1/2 years and this period saw crude oil being sold at high prices even though our yearly budget was mainly based on $30+.

Bill Gates - Of Course,
It has been found out that the grandfather of the cousin to the aunt of the grandmother of the cousin of the father of Bill gates is a nigerian, so , that makes Bill Gates himself a nigerian - which inadvertentently makes him the richest Nigerian.

I need somebody to prove me wrong

Deinde Fernandez is a Nigerian billionaire whose massive pleasure yacht is generally moored on the French Riviera while he cruises the globe in one of his fleet of corporate jets . Reports are that he made his fortune trafficking weapons in Africa. His wealth easily rivals that of IBB, Abacha, late Abiola and President Obasanjo put together.

OBJ was minister of petroleum for seven good years.During this period,nigeria made over thirty billion dollars from oil exports.During FEC meetings they never talked about oil or amount made from oil.OBJ kept it to himself.

HI All

Most of the posts on this topic have been hilarious and has given me a few laughs however there are 2 types of Money moguls in Nigeria

1. The undeclared i.e. Those rich ppl that cant flaunt their wealth because it was gotten at the expense of the masses
2. The declared i.e Those rich ppl that were empowered by "the undeclared" to help flaunt their obscene wealth

Euclidian Ratings grin

The Declared
0. Chief Dehinde Fernandez - Logically but has lost some of his wealth due to divorce settlement!!
1. Mike Adenuga - 2.2 Billion dollars - Jan 2006 (This day)
2. Aliko Dangote - 1.750 Billion Dollars - Jan 2006 (This day)
3. Femi Otedola - 850 million Dollars - Jan 2006 (This Day)
4. And the rest

(Wealth in Nigeria is measured by the current championship) These men have profited immensely from the OBJ administration.

The Undeclared

1. IBB/OBJ - At least 20 Billion dollars - {Reliable sources}
2. ATIKU - Close to the above
3. Governor James Ibori At least 2 Billion Dollars (Sheikh of Nigeria)
4. Governor Peter Odili - Rivals James Ibori pound for pound
5. Harry Akande - Undeclared Drug Baron of Chicago
6. All the rest including all the silent millionaires in Nigeria and diaspora

These figures are quoted with logick and reliable sources!! The figures are what hey are worth including their assets!!

The real question is when will you make your own 1 million pounds or dollars per annum which is Forbes definition of a wealthy person i.e.N250 million INCOME per ANNUM .

Food for thought grin

Euclidian Philosophy is Antiquated!!! shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked

My brother, there are nigerians worth atleast 1 billion US dollars.

Forbes fails to list them because they can't verify the source of their wealth.

Didn't you hear that Abacha stole around $3 billion while in power ? Nigeria has received more than $1 biilion of Abacha's money, so there is no question that the money was stolen.

I have no doubt in my mind that IBB and Dangote are worth atleast $1 billion.
