For a man that claimed he is richer than Osun state, he must be a billionaire.

Why is forbes not talking about his billion dollars?

Forbes don't count the likes of IBB and Tinubu. They have no known businesses or sources of the billions. They are not reckoned with when and where it matters

In Nigeria, politics is a full-time business, compared to other Nations you're mentioning their Nationals.

Escobar did actually. He and some of friends made the list in the early 80s before everyone got to really know what he was into really.

His money is stolen funds.
Re: Why Is Bola Tinubu Not Among Billionaires On Forbes List? by nairalanda1(m): 9:34pm On Jan 13
Our president is not Forbes level rich. He is rich, just not rich enough for Forbes.

Na only people like Dangote and prolly Otedola that would make Forbes list...and maybe Adenuga, and probably Innoson. Maybe the Dantata company. Otherwise, not politicans . Any politican who is Forbes listed has probably long retired from politics to focus on business.(OR is like Bloomberg and Trump who both spent most of their lives making money, and then entered full time politics much later later on).

Politics and business does not mix. There is a reason why some of us did not like the idea of the owner of ABC transport going for governor, because that would mean the end of ABC transport...no way.

Trump was always defined as a succesful businessman before his foray into politics.

He cannot be deemed a career politician strictly considering he came into politics at an advances age and after most of his working life revolved around his business activities.

Tinubu said he inherited estate that made him wealthy. So that should count too.
Forbes banned career politicians?

You are just a mischief-maker obsessed with individuals and personalities rather than ideas as it is for the most productive and useful human being.

Forbes does not do what you do which is to base submissions on talks in a video, that could be true or false, or other personalised declarations

They try to use publicly available information that accurately, as much as possible, show the assets and wealth of individuals.

Yes, you hate Tinubu passionately and are drawn to constantly trying to demonize him 24/7, because he despatched your "Yes Daddy" messiah, but try to get creative with your mischief.

Forbes magazine is known for publishing an annual list of billionaires and their estimated net worths. However, it's important to note that Forbes does not require explicit permission from billionaires before publishing their net worths.

Forbes utilizes publicly available information, financial data, and other sources to estimate the net worth of individuals.

Forbes employs a team of journalists, researchers, and analysts who gather information from various public sources, such as public filings, company disclosures, stock market data, and interviews with industry insiders. They also assess assets, investments, business valuations, and other factors to estimate the net worth of individuals.

I can't provide you with a working brain if you don't have one. "Wealthy" could be any figure yet we know why you want that figure to be trillions in Tinubu's case.

I wish you goodluck with your mischief-making but I think I do you a better favour asking you to get a life.

You that have a working brain, one that said he is richer than Osun state should not be on forbes list?

Lol. The whole point I make, that you continue to ignore, perhaps because you are too dull to get it, is that Tinubu can make any claim.

That does not make such factual. Real and verified statistic and data are what educated folks use to make conclusions.

To show how dullardly you are, Osun State IGR at 2022 was 24.6 billion Naira. Let's even assume Osun keeps and saves it all and use federal allocation to service her capital and recurrent expenditure.

At today's exchange rate of £1.00 UK pounds sterling to 1600 Naira, £1 million pounds sterling is 1.6 billion Naira. The 24.6 billion naira IGR of Osun is therefore £15.4 million pounds sterling approx.

Many, many, many Nigerians not on the Forbes list can therefore claim to be richer than Osun viewed from the perspective of Osun's yearly IGR output compared to their own.

What therefore qualifies Tinubu and other Nigerians who can legitimately claim to be richer than Osun to appear on Forbes dollar billionaires list?

Like I told you, get creative. It is one thing to be a petty and hateful lover of mischief yet another thing entirely to forment mischief inmovately without being exposed as an ignorant dullard.

Are you saying that Tinubu is dumb to make such claim?
IGR is not a measure of a state's wealth. Do you even know the meaning of asset? You think Osun states total assets is not up to 1 billion dollars? That's a big insult to Osun. Dude, hush and go play in the sand. You got no single point.
