Mateen1000:[sub][/sub] Putting Otedola in the same category with Nigerian instagram billionaires was pure sacarsm but the truth of the matter is that Otedola's net worth is not even up to $500 Million dollars. You can look him up on the internet or go check his Wikipedia page if you don't have business insiders that can feed you correct info. Don't be deceived by the hype from musicians & the media. See, the guy is rich but not as people tends to push his net worth beyond the actual worth. It has been happening for a while now, before after Dangote, clueless people will scream that Otedola is the next but information is at the finger tips now. Otedola will barely make the list of the richest top 10 Nigeria business men. He is not even in the top 5. The man has been immersed into lot of debts over the past couple of year. He wasted some of his money on prostitutes and he easily gets carried away, he signed some bad deals and went into unprofitable business ventures that made him lose several millions of dollar. Most of the times, it is the prostitutes sent to him by business cronies that enticed him to sign some of these deals. He said he has learnt his lesson now though. |

These guys should go and rest with their yeye list. See, there are Nigerians who are richer than these guys. Trust me.... Politicians, G-guys and traders who are richer than Alakija are too numerous to mention. These guys are just people that declared their assets. You no dey hear where dem talk say EFCC recovered $200 billion from one politician? Lol, has it not passed all of these guys mentioned here? So many traders in Nnewi alone are richer than these guys, talk more of those in Alaba and Idumota. Forget talk guy |

pflourish:^^^^ ^^^^ ... same class with Emoney and Hushpuppi? Femi Otedola was on the Forbes list of dollar billionaires right until 2016 so his networth dropped due to inflation and the fact that he has divested from the shares he had in the oil company [Forte Oil Plc] of which he was the former chairman. Forbes also only deals with networths based on prices of stocks and shares... NOT physical cash. He has instead recently invested in power generation as part of the liberalisation of the sector in Nigeria. He has also donated money running into billions to worthy causes in local currency... so that to me is the definition of TRUE WEALTH and he earns my complete admiration! If Michael Adenuga who is in 3rd position of African-based billionaires opens up more on his full assets [instead of being reclusive] just like Aliko Dangote has done, he would most definitely overtake Aliko Dangote based on the latest billionaire rankings below: ==> https://www.forbes.com/africa-billionaires/list/ Hope this helps. 1 Like 1 Share |

Cherez: I knew a thread like this will bring out the vile Igbo haters! Just ignore the fools! What does it profit a monopolistic man if he gains the whole world, but suffers the indignity of his region/ethnicity being declared as the headquarters of poverty in the world!? The dickheads never factor in the lopsided political-economy that's been in place since the late 60s that has placed the entire country into the pockets of a few individuals from 'chosen' ethnic groups! They go to bed and sleep well insofar as they believe the Igbos are behind them on all fronts, but the moment a Igbo becomes the leader in any sector, they get all restless and start plotting how to either ruin his business or bring him down a peg or two....like we've seen with Air Peace, INNOSON and IBETO cement! |

fulanimafia: He's right!!! If you guys are such wizards in business, why don't you go form a country of your own and leave us to our 'audio oyel'? Sourcing of raw materials is just part of running and sustaining a business! A lot has to do with gov't policies and gov't support....especially if you're trying to be monopolistic and run your competitors out of town! |

DexterousOne: Yes they got government patronage but I was trying to differentiate between the genuine businessmen that showed real ingenuity by building their business from the scratch to the level where they now enjoy government patronage from the oil moguls like Alakija, Indimi, Arthur Eze etc who were all lucky to have military friends that gifted them oil blocks. The only work to do is to get a foreign company to work on the block and share the profits. For example, I know when coscharis started dealing on auto parts at Aba and Nnewi before relocating to Lagos, Innoson started as a motorcycle and spare parts dealer in Nnewi. We know how and when Subomi, Ovia, Fola Adeola started their banks. Now as a start up businessman, who would you rather look up to for encouragement in your business? A product of hardwork, perseverance, endurance and patience or the product of luck and opportunity. 1 Like |

DexterousOne: 'Most strategic' my black ass! The main reason he's the richest is because he's Fulani and the Fulani have had Nigeria in their pocket since the late 60s! I may agree with your argument if you said he trumped his fellow Fulani billionaires like Rabiu because he was the 'most stategic' of the lot of them! |

HAKYN1: You come across as being so insecure and pathetic! Why is it that when south-south and south-east are mentioned as one, you get hysterical and go in to a blind state of panic, but when they talk of 'one north' it doesn't register in your Igbo hating brain? For your information, i'm Igbo and from that so called south-south! |
