No single Igbo have make it to this list but they make the most noise in this country.

Listen young brats, when it comes to wealth distribution, Igbos carry first in Nigeria.

Let me break it down for you to understand.


If we put Hausa-Fulani population as 100million, out of that 100million, 2 are dollar billionaires, 100 dollar millionaires, 10,000 are dollar thousandnaires, 1million Naira millionaires and the rest are poor as in extremely poor.


If we put Yoruba population as 55million, out of that 55million, 3 are dollar billionaires, 150 dollar millionaires, 200,000 are dollar thousandnaires, 5million are Naira millionaires and the rest are poor and average.




Now if we put Igbo population as 52million, out of that 52million, none are dollar billionaires according to Forbes rating, 1,000 are dollar millionaires, 5million are dollar thousandnaires, 19million are Naira millionaires and the rest are poor and average.



This is the difference between Igbo, Yoruba and Hausa-Fulani wealth in Nigeria.


Due to federal politics controlled by Hausa-Fulanis for decades and Yorubas, more Hausa-Fulanis and Yorubas are dollar billionaires because of the federal government favor they enjoy having their tribesmen in federal government authorities in Nigeria, but when it comes to wealth distribution, Igbos carry first because of their small and medium scale business orientation and the "nwa-boi" system in Igbo culture that makes the successful Igbo businessmen to pickup poor boys from Igbo rural communities to train and make them successful business owners over some years.


Another thing that make Igbos to have a deeper wealth distribution more than other Nigerian tribes is their love for traveling around, it makes them spread across all Nigerian regions and continents of the world, which gives them an upper hand financially and economically when it comes to being financially average/above poverty line.


This is the reality but as a kid you are, you can argue blindly.

Kustask:

For Igbo land no be only one person dey get money

Go to every major market in this country the richest people are the Igbos

Go to the villages they liter Mansion and duplexes everywhere that's how to know the richest people

Go to estates in Lagos Igbos are the majority

Go to estates in Abuja Igbos are the majority

So which other yardstick do you want to use to measure the richest people again?

Due to federal politics controlled by Hausa-Fulanis and Yorubas for decades since the end of civil war in 1970, more Hausa-Fulanis and Yorubas are dollar billionaires because of the federal government favor they enjoy having their tribesmen in federal government authorities in Nigeria, but when it comes to wealth distribution, Igbos carry first because of their small and medium scale business orientation and the "nwa-boi" system in Igbo culture that makes the successful Igbo businessmen to pickup poor boys from Igbo rural communities to train and make them successful business owners over some years.


Another thing that make Igbos to have a deeper wealth distribution more than other Nigerian tribes is their love for traveling around, it makes them spread across all Nigerian regions and continents of the world spotting new and rare opportunities of survival before others, which gives them an upper hand financially and economically when it comes to being financially average/above poverty line.

It is only sheer economic ignorance and lack of statical knowledge , that will make someone to think that because your tribe is well-represented in the few richest people in Africa, it means you are doing well. The question is what is the average purchasing power of the tribe this people come from? Because Dangote has consistently being the richest, does it make the northerners richer than the south? The wealth of a society is measured by the distribution of resources not by the number of few billionaires hoarding money.

Alamu5891:
igbo name no even Dey there and for there mind na dem get money pass

KennethOkonkwo:

Is it because your tribe is not well represented.

Because just ordinary air peace you na never let us here word

JimohMomoh:


Igbos are not even among the top 20 Billionaires in Africa

KennethOkonkwo:

NO EVIDENCE!

The only true Nigerian billionaire on that list is this young man, the rest there are Nigerian corrupt federal government made billionaires, that is why you didn't see any Igbo man there and that is why they are ready to kill to make sure no Igbo man become Nigeria's President because they know how they have been corruptly siphoning Niger Delta crude oil to enrich their tribesmen, friends and loyal cronies since the military era.



Wale Adenuga was made rich by IBB

Aliko Dangote is just a placeholder for most ex Nigerian heads of states who have been using him to hide their loots.


Rabiu I don't have much information about him but I don't trust his origin either.


Femi Otedola became rich through politics, his father was a former Lagos state Governor for those that don't know, and he was broke and owing huge loan that AMCON was on his trail and he ran away to Ghana until Goodluck Jonathan became President and forgave him and returned him back from exile in Ghana, that was how he bounced back and started getting richer and richer through oil deals.


Otedola and Dangote used to be sworn enemies around 2000s to 2006 when they were having issues with Dangote using his brother Rabiu to venture into oil business.



But you see this Yoruba man that founded Calendry, he is a true innovative young man that deserve his billionaire tag, the rest on this list are politically made billionaires all thanks to corrupt past and present Nigerian Military Heads of states and civilian Presidents.


You can quote me anywhere any day, I no send your Papa.

As for the hungry, poverty stricken youths celebrating the fact that their corrupt Presidents have been busy enriching a few of their tribesmen through dirty oil/gas/FOREX dealings to the detriment of their own future, I have nothing to tell you paupers, your reality outside the internet will teach you all hard truth about life, so continue celebrating your corrupt government made fake billionaires without any genuine innovation or invention.
