This is a very impressive list. The only difference between these guys and the likes of Davido is that their average net worth is over $1 billion. So they can afford the outright purchase of an embrarer or a gulfstream and also pay a flight crew plus necessary maintenance. It's not an easy feat to own and pay a flight crew of pilots and flight attendance whose yearly salaries can cost 150 million naira and then cost of jet fuel for every hour of flight you could be shelling out 7 million naira and then maintenance takes the cake, you can easily pour over 200 million in maintenance alone. These guys can spend such amounts of money every week for the rest of their lives and still be multi billionaires, but Davido and Wizkid cannot, they instead lease a private jet and deceive the masses that they own it. Not hating here but we should never forget that in 1994 Rashidi Yekini became the first Nigerian player to score in the world cup tournament where we defeated Bulgaria 3-0.


WizKid never told anyone he had a private jet.
