Lagos state
supposed to top the list
Lagos would've been higher if Tinubu didn't destroy the value of naira. Naira has lost more than 4x its original value. But then, most currencies in Africa only have numerical strength with a useless economic value.

Is ABUJA a joke to you huh This people no really know howfar🤣🤣🤣
Wealth cannot hide in this digital age and time. Abuja rich people are mostly the political elites and their children. Their number is insignificant

With the kind of affluence and opulence in Abuja, one would believe that it would topple Lagos at least angry

Abuja is not a joke but you do have a point

Besides, we don’t know the metrics that was used to arrive at this list

Where is Nnewi?

It is like drug money no make the list
Re: Top 10 Cities With The Most Millionaires In Africa by lawani(m): 8:29pm On May 13
It is to do with the value of real estate

A 30,000 dollar real estate in Nigeria is valued say 200k dollars in South Africa.
Nigeria's per Capita income is less than 1k dollars while SA's is like 5k dollars.

A millionaire in SA in real estate is not worth 200k dollars in Nigeria

Flangelo12:
Lagos has more than 3200 dollar millionaires.
They never went around to do actual counting and finding, they just used projections based on per capita
Re: Top 10 Cities With The Most Millionaires In Africa by Emdi1914: 8:32pm On May 13
It is said that about a decade ago, Nigeria had about 15000 dollar millionaires.. but as of recent it has about 9000 dollar millionaires...all thanks to Apc govt devaluation of the naira and also a lot of millionaires have jappered

We know that for sure.

I would be interested though in the methodology for arriving at these stats.

South Africa is the easiest place to make money in Africa and the most risky place to live without been robbed or molested by locals.

In SA, the street is busy and rewarding but it's military. Made only for the strong at heart

It isn't that difficult to do the actual counting because such people are visible and are known to banks. A man worth one million dollars in a second tier Nigerian city will have a visible business with monthly income well over ten million naira if all the funds are in the business and if the funds are in real estate, he will own at least 50 units of well finished three bed room flats. How many people like that do you know?

SA total 32,000+ alone. Is Nigeria giant of Africa?

They are going to USA for WC while we are at home.
Re: Top 10 Cities With The Most Millionaires In Africa by TemporaryHansel(m): 8:48pm On May 13
Milionaires in which currency? Is it $ or naira because if it's naira the number reported for Lagos is vastly inaccurate, but if you say dollar millionaires then it's agreeable.

Armaggedon:
it will top it by having the most millionaires not by MC oluomo Oshodi way. Unfortunately the massive slum almost came last despite having a combination of many of the cities' population and enjoying economic monopoly that the skewed structure in Nigeria affords it.

our system is not set up for growth. It iasetup for grabbing and sharing of resources. Just look at Tinubu's top projects. No stands any real chance of correcting the ills of the system
You are completely wrong , you dont need to like tinubu but he is the only one after Obj to understand how to setup systems.
Re: Top 10 Cities With The Most Millionaires In Africa by Nefort: 9:08pm On May 13
NinjaMetahuman:
Definitely a Fake list.

Abuja and Port hoarcout alone has more millionaires let alone lagos.

Do you belive the figures? So no billionaires in Anambra, Delta, Abuja and Rivers? Go to Kano and see

Abuja alone in business.
Re: Top 10 Cities With The Most Millionaires In Africa by Macfoe: 9:35pm On May 13

Fake news. Where is Upper Iweka road and Ozumbulu junction on the list?
Re: Top 10 Cities With The Most Millionaires In Africa by Putinofrussia:
Angelfrost:
South Africa practically owns that list...!

No wonder the rest of Africa want to overcrowd the country.
Any nation with the most infrastructures in relation to its population will always be the richest.
If your thieving leaders continue to embezzle the money for infrastructures but instead open borders to give you rice at #1000 per bag,then poverty will continue to rise.
Infrastructures will galvanize a nation to prosperity by facilitating production but production without infrastructures is impossible.
