Brixtonyute: He made his money from Angola, so what? We all agree he is stupidly rich, but comparing him to other people without having having the slightest idea what is net worth must be is just totally silly! |

Brixtonyute:dude,i won't stoop so low as to exchanging words with you.Rather,I'll educate you,my aunt's husband has a lot of friends among these supposedly rich nigerians in diaspora,i spend time with them whenever am abroad so as to meet all those household names we hear about in Nigeria,but believe you me,majority of these guys haven't even paid up to 20 percent of those properties they lay claim to. I know a bini man who resides in a 3million pounds home in surrey but my friends who knew him more than i do says he's only paid a little over 500K pounds even after living in the mansion for 4 years. This man knows every capital city of the world and lodges in expensive suites.He aquires his fleet of cars in a like manner.Wake up guys |

"Alongside his business interests he has a diplomatic career stretching back to 1966, when he served as the consul of the Republic of Dahomey. In 1982 he became the economic adviser to the Angolan government and has worked with the UN for more than a decade, beginning with his appointment as the permanent representative of Mozambique in 1984. In 1992 he served as ambassador-at-large for Angola and for Togo. His business links with Angola are also strong. In 1996 Petro Inett, which is registered in Paris, obtained a 50% share with South African-based Energy Africa Limited in a deal with the state oil company for exploration rights in a 4,700 sq km (1,800 sq mile) area of Angola's coast. But his career has not been without controversy. In 1984 he hit the headlines in Swaziland when the parliament tried to question his appointment as roving ambassador with the rank of deputy finance minister. After being ordered by the royal family not to intervene, MPs dropped the issue." (An extract from an article about the man on http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/1999/may/22/nelsonmandela) 1 Like |

We would never know how much this man is truly worth. No be every big money Forbes dey fit estimate. He seems more of an underworld operator; the sort of shadowy figure that helps African despots to squirrel billions of dollars (looted funds) away in numbered accounts in the Cayman Islands and Switzerland. He is also a kind of facilitator and negotiator; the kind of man that makes things happen. This kind of man is difficult to understand, and the depth of his wealth is probably similar to a bottomless pit. 4 Likes |

Wallie: Not to pour sand into anyone’s garri but most of the people you think are super wealthy are not! Just because someone blows a few million dollars doesn’t make the person the wealthiest! so Roman Abramovic that pay $50million in divorce is not worth more than $100million by you 2 Likes |

I find this tread interesting. Deinde Fernandez has always operated under the radar. The general public (you all know yourselves ) didn’t know anything about him before and after the ovation article other than the divorce proceedings. The guy appears to be a smooth, smart and well connected operator. He obviously has/had the right connections in oil rich countries of the world. The guy no need subsidy. I wonder how many more Nigerians like him are out there. Lesson learnt - it isn’t about the noise. It is all about the result. 1 Like |

Aliko Dangote is Africa's richest man. If you don't like it then go to Forbes. |

Antonio Oladeinde Fernandez Nationality: Nigerian Source: Petro-Inett The mysterious and intensely private Nigerian diplomat is a formerly served as the Central African Republic’s ambassador to the United Nations. A close friend to Angola’s president, Jose Eduardo dos Santos, Fernandez has extensive gold, diamond and oil mining interests in Angola and across Africa held through his company, Petro Inett. Divides his time between lavish homes in France, Scotland and the United States. In 2003, Fernandez’s wife reportedly sued him for close to $400 million in a record divorce fight. Very little was heard about the case afterwards. Last year, he put up one of his properties in New Rochelle for sale for $12 million. http://www.forbes.com/sites/mfonobongnsehe/2011/11/16/10-african-millionaires-to-watch/3/ |

Abagworo: There is difference between "was" and "is". Arthur Nzeribe who happens to be my kinsman was once the richest man in Nigeria. Same as Fenandez but change is the only permanent thing on earth.What happened to Francis Arthur Nzeribe's wealth?. He was so rich and a crowd puller yesteryears. I can remember how every activity in Isinweke and Mbano closed down because Chief Nzeribe was coming to Etiti for a graduation ceremony of IMOSU then at Etiti. |

edoyad: Aliko Dangote is Africa's richest man. If you don't like it then go to Forbes. So you want to tell me Dangote is richer the OBJ, IBB and Danjuma. Must of these men including Fanadez are rich Macias, making money from Blood diamonds, gold and crude oil. A man like ObJ got big investments in Saotome and Principe. But you will never hear about them on Forbes, because their wealth cannot be taxed. |
Re: Where On Earth Is Chief Oladeinde Fenandez? Nigerian's Truly Richest Man. by Nobody: 11:58pm On Oct 23, 2012 |
Dangote is the richest man in Africa according to forbes not the richest gangan. There's no need insulting one another, Dangote himself knows those that are twice richer than him even in Nigeria, guys no one can quantify those men's wealth even I guess they can themselve. 2 Likes |

You are damn so correct. Even Dangote knows he has several bosses who are far richer than him. People who don't even know how rish they are. 1 Like |

I am not underestimating him. I just believe he is being more favored by the government than other entrepreneurs thereby giving him a stronger edge over others. You don't monopolize the market and claim to be the best. 2 Likes |

There is always favour in the rise in fortune of men since ages. How this happens is only known to the Supreme Intelligence. Deinde Fernandez is no doubt rich but his riches is like chicken change to that of Aliko Dangote. Were Dangote not a reserved fellow, a born enterprenuer, his lavish lifestyle would have been second to none. |
