I am not Igbo but this is a foolish thing to say. It’s just like the robber saying that Jesus couldn’t save himself. The process of becoming a billionaire has a huge connection to the government in power. Contracts, policy and tax can be drawn in your favor to the extend you become a billionaire. When last do you have Ibo president? These guys are marginalized. Period!
grin they are here again….they have to blame everyone else but themselves for their failure to measure up…..I guess Ogunlesi and awotona in the diaspora have huge connection to govt in power…….empty chest beaters undecided

23 names. Billions in impact. The 2025 rankings are officially out! While Aliko Dangote continues to lead the way, the rise of tech founders like Alexander Karp and Tope Awotona shows exactly where the future of global wealth is heading.
I want to hear from you: Which name on this list surprised you the most? Who do you think will be the next addition to this list in 2026?
See the full breakdown here 👇
All the four Nigerians on the list are Ibos, that’s why we are envied

I'm shocked to my bone marrow!

This is surely an adulterated and doctored list!

How come?

Something is definitely wrong somewhere!

It takes more than trading to be a dollar billionaire in Nigeria, all the dollar billionaires in Nigeria are government propped up and igbos are not included in the loot

Okay, junior Jesus

1. What are your plans to improve your income in 2026

2. Any source of passive income? Like stocks, shares, even Bitcoin and other coin?

3. How much are you planning to save this year

4. How many streams of income do you have? How many jobs you got?

5. How is your spending? Do you spend on what you need or what you want?

Remember 2 thessalonians 3 vs 10. Abegi.

How can they be giants if their principal city is waterless and smelly huh

Is there something more basic than water supply in this 21st century?

Is Rihanna Black?
Yes, Rihanna is Black; she identifies strongly with her Black heritage as a proud Afro-Caribbean woman, born in Barbados to a Black mother (Afro-Guyanese) and a father with Afro-Barbadian and European ancestry, embracing her identity as a Black woman in her music and business ventures like Fenty.

Is Rihanna white?

Or what other race does she belong to huh

TheBedWench:
The one-drop rule is a social and legal principle of racial classification that was historically prominent in the United States in the 20th century. It asserted that any person with even one ancestor of black ancestry ("one drop" of black blood)[1][2] is considered black (Negro or colored in historical terms).

This concept became codified into the law of some states in the early 20th century. It was associated with the principle of "invisible blackness" that developed after the long history of racial interaction in the South, which had included the hardening of slavery as a racial caste and later segregation. It is an example of hypodescent, the automatic assignment of children of a mixed union between different socioeconomic or ethnic groups to the group with the lower status, regardless of proportion of ancestry in different groups.[3]

The one-drop rule is defunct in law in the United States and was never codified into federal law.

See how you’re huffing and puffing like a locomotive just to prove you’re not whom you actually are.
I don’t see you huff and puff like this to prove you are not from the North or SW when you occasionally defend their position
Re: The World’s Black Billionaires 2025 by pfadom: 5:04pm On Dec 19, 2025
This is a discrimination against the Igbo billionaires. We must challenge it in a court of law.
