Gentle reminder for the public: that someone is worth $1bn does not mean they have $1 billion in cash. It means their assets (usually stock/share holdings in 1/more companies) are worth $1 billion. This value of course, goes up and down, depending on the market.

So when next you see a billionaire, he might be going through some serious issues. Have mercy and don't pester with your concerns.

beyondPen:
Which apprentice system? Oh the one a friend of mine who is igbo told me one time he was to serve his Master for 7 years while getting 400k in settlement?

Thank God for the guy life now that he learnt a skill that's made him build a house today.

Let me tell you something; you tribe is last after hausa Fulani and Yoruba anywhere you want to drag it to.

Senselesss quote. It's not about the money given to you it's about the contacts and connections the boy has made try to use your brain

MightySparrow:
They are just noise makers. Yorùbá is their father in any field, any day, anywhere..

continue to measure dick with Igbos

obembet:
We are talking about legit money not kidnapping and ritualist Money. This is list of billionaires that can defend Thier wealth

Honestly you are right not Evans kind of so called billionaire. No one from their region has ever made it to Forbes as billionaires but keep boasting stupidly. They can not say the Nigerian's on the list are all government made cos thier richest man just made a confession how IBB made him. Only Adenuga networth swallow them.

Goodvibes007:
Ignorant statement. Lol.
Do you know how much people make abroad from after graduating 3-4 years apprentices system, unlike the 15 years slavery system in alaigbo. Even in Nigeria, the apprenticeship system is not slavery unlike that of the Igbo that is similar to slavery.

Na your papppa do 15yrs

Abagworo:
Truth is that no Igbo man is a billionaire. There are just so many Igbo multimillionaires in their hundreds of thousands if not millions. A millionaire is anyone worth more than 1.5 billion Naira to under 1.5 trillion Naira. Only few Igbo men are worth up to 200 billion Naira and above and that's the Tony Elumelus, Arthur Ezes, Orji Kalus, Orjiakos etc

I'm proud of being one of the multimillionaires of Igbo extraction right from my 20s

No de misbehave

Thewrath:
The igbo apprenticeships system is usually between 4 to 6yrs and is guaranteed in most cases….it has proven to be successful that is why it’s still in practice!

You could spend 50 yrs on nairaland hating on the igbos and still achieve nothing!

How you decide to share wealth or groom youngsters into wealth in your tradition is your own cup of kunu and I careless about the opinion of an anonymous user on a faceless forum!

God bless you and your generation. Onye oma

Seadogfellow:
Yes e clear
But Ur papa name no dey there

SE wailing by an ipob member. Kidnappers and ritualist section will soon be announced by Forbes. There is still hope just a little Patience. Yeye people. Even Dangote with his investment in Lagos don't say he owns Lagos. This fools wey build 4 flat will rush and say nonsense. Dangote monthly taxes paid to Lagos government swallowed all igbos taxes in all south west states for a year and still the baba is so humble. A very great man and the most successful Nigeria business man and the best. Dangote is the through representation of consumption to production cos he started has a trader and went into manufacturing but Obi is still trading till tomorrow but foolishly with his campaign slogan then, consumption to production. Yeye goat.

livinbygrace:
Apprenticeship is for the poor man children and no matter what business you do,you cant be as rich as those people listed.Moreover,most of the so called billionaires traders in Onisha,Trade Fair,Alaba,Idumota are into shady deals(drugs,fake drugs,fraud,kidnapping).They are just using business as a cover.

Can you show us those with shady business in Onitsha market then I will show you skull miners in Oshogbo or Sango

ovieigho:
They are not talking about billionaire in naira.....

Sometimes people you think are wealthy don't even have 600m$ in their account but then you won't notice because being a billionaire in naira sef no easy

it's not about money in account it's investment.

Dafresh:
it's not about money in account it's investment.

No $billion dollars investment can be hidden, we will sure know who has it...

Even innoson with massive car plant might not be a billionaire in $$ yet...

CaptainZubi:
Fake list.
I can mention 10 people from onitsha main market and ladipo int'l spareparts richer than them

Obviously the list is fake.

cr7lomo:
People like u wey no get 10k for account, go leave una life go de talk about People wey no send una... de busy de help dem count their money come de hail them ....kobo u no see

The list isnt about him or you, its about the universally known black billionaires

How do you even know he's poor


Chinedu, cry small small

maasoap:
Apprenticeship system is clear sign of poverty in Igbo land. If you have children and have means, everyone knows that what you would give your children is education, not to go and live with one master for 10 years as a modern day slave.
That system too has even been corrupted that only few slaves are getting their entitlements at the end of the day, others are being chased away by their bosses, use and dump thing

Faber, how do you feel reading this and seeing this thread now

Psoul:
Igbos are not interested in that.
Even in politics, they get no interest. Some recently started going into it.

When Igbo man starts declaring his wealth, jealousy, witch hunting and all manners of bad belle will start.

You think those on that list woke up feeling interested?

They were just succeeding in their endeavours and they got recognized without any useless noise



You think 'interest' is enough to make this kinda list?

You no want Presidency but Obi contest

These guys big pass you....Your explanations are unnecessary

Dafresh:
you people always start what you can't finish, you people started on X now you guys are regretting

How are they regrretting it?

With your tears wey dey flow for twitter

Na her pos you see, whereas, your people don comment before she even drop her own

Hypocrite

So Tifinibu didn't enter the list despite druggy business, lobbying money and Malta.

Where my name dey?? Okay I don see am!!!

Chinedu, cry small small

Cry more because of?? I have more than enough....I hv always had...so money no de freak me like una wey never see am..... u see those men as gods .... while I see them as normal people living their lives

oluwaseyi0:
Yet some people are claiming there are people in some part of these country that are richer than Dangote or even Bill Gate

Bro, there are people richer than Dangote in this country but the thing is their source of income no clear. Na why Dem no dey rate dem

oluwaseyi0:

continue to measure dick with Igbos

You guys make so much noise as if you are the richest people in black race!.

See in any way you mention a star in Nigeria, when you mention an Igbo man there are at least three Yorubas in that field. Any field

When then brown roofs you taunt Yoruba houses were being built, your forebears were living in caves.

You people say Yoruba's are cowards, mention any tribes in Nigeria that fought wars internally and externally more than yorubas.

The relics of our history is what you celebrate as a rave.

See mouth 👄 😺

That is because Igbos always measure their totoris against Yorubas,their masters.

Oga go and drink water.
No one that his/her her name will be there without bn interested to be mentioned.
Even if all your businesses are opened to public domain, your worth cannot be made public if you're not interested to be mentioned.

Hide you ignorance and hatred.

Makunahatata:
mtchew... But you can do burial and buy audio coffin for 1 billion and post on front page 😹

Yes we can do all that and still don't want to be in the list of most rich people on earth.
Is that too painful to you little rat.

There are many hidden billionaires that wouldn't like to appear in that list.
If you don't believe it, you can go and sacrifice yourself to your father's shrine.

osesology:

The number of people working in your establishment is also there to be considered.

lmao, you sounds angry, but why? 😹😹,
Also Why are u contradicting yourself? , you claim you hide your wealth but you're the ones that goes about chest beating, calling Audio billions, creating threads here even on nairaland, you're the ones audio developing everywhere, but when it really matters, and there's a proof to back it up, you're not always on the list, why the so much empty noise and pollution?😹😹

Dafresh:
your people are into fake drugs more than Igbos. can we start a thread on it just like X

This one is living in planet Neptune! Keep living in denial the whole world know una..! The fake drugs last week that were confiscated by NAFDAC last week in Onitsha is still fresh! How many you wan count.

tunjijones:
Yes, he died as a foolish man.

Your future is bleak no ambition! I pity your irresponsible father!

EmperorCaesar:
Faber, how do you feel reading this and seeing this thread now

Happy. Coz I made sense

Ofemannnu:

Even your Monica is still measuring dick with Igbos
