19naia: I never knew how much he had actually been involved with,but i know he was a traveler who loved to be in his camel caravan that would strech for kiliometers across the deserts carrying lots of his wealth in gold and salt,he would arrive at strange places across africa and give away so much gold at the same value as salt and in some places where gold was not known or used,they prefered salt as more value...it was mansa´s great generousity that led greedy men of conquest to fix their eyes on him to plunder his fortune when he passed away......remember that the word "Salary" comes from the word "SAL" which neans "SALT"..."Salary" is from the time when salt was the great traded good of the empires on earth...people would be paid in salt slabs,and no more supriseing than people tradeing in cowry shells found in the dirt....Some people of various places would prefer to be paid in salt rather than gold...The places that produced salt still exist today and trade along the upper ranges of the niger river down to the south...There were many great lakes in sahel africa even bigger than the original lake Chad..They ranged from mali to niger and maybe even into Sudan..Its the dried lake beds that have concentrated minerals such as salt.....I suspect that the great "golden Monarchs" of ghana are related in ancient times to the early gold mining tribes that led to the rise of mansa musa tribe and the asante tribe..they all mine gold using the same technique....thanks for this informations atlest I have lent something here |
this ain't no toy gun |
this is totally unacceptable. It might be acceptable in other other part of the world but this is Africa for God's sake. Being ethical is what makes us different, strong and better than the whites what is this guy upto

King Mansa Musa’s astounding wealth came from his country Mali’s production of more than half the world’s gold and salt, Celebrity Net Worth said. A photograph of Mansa Musa on a map of North Africa circa 1375. King Mansa Musa wasn’t just the 1% of the 14th century — he may be the richest person of all time. As the obscure ruler of West Africa’s Mali Empire, Musa amassed a jaw-dropping $400 billion during his reign from 1312 to 1337, according to a new inflation-adjusted list by celebritynetworth.com. As for Musa’s moolah, his “shocking wealth came from his country’s vast production of more than half the world’s supply of salt and gold,” according to the Celebrity Net Worth survey, which converted each billionaire’s fortunes into 2012 dollars. Musa was a devout Muslim who spearheaded an extensive building program of palaces and mosques. But his money was eventually lost after his death in 1337, when he was believed to be in his late 50s. “His heirs were not able to fend off civil war and invading conquerors. Just two generations later, his world record net worth was gone,” Celebrity Net Worth said. Of the list’s top 25, 14 are Americans, including Microsoft founder Bill Gates, whose inflation-adjusted worth is about $136 billion. The 25 billionaires and families listed have made some megabucks, with a combined worth of $4.3 trillion. Celebrity Net Worth's list 1.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) yesterday arrested one Abubakar Tijani Sheriff, whom it described as a bulk currency smuggler, as he attempted to smuggle $7million out of the country. The EFCC said in a statement today that Sheriff, 24, was arrested at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport in Lagos en route Dubai, United Arab Emirates, as he boarded his flight. Following his arrest, he declared that he had a total sum of $4.5million on him but thorough screening and search showed that he was actually carrying $7,049,444, the commission said. Sheriff then confessed that he was a courier for 20 individuals who hired him to courier the money for them to Dubai. “Investigations by the EFCC showed that Sheriff is a regular traveller and one of several couriers of illegal cash suspected to be proceeds of crime,” the commission adding that his claims concerning his accomplices are being investigated. Travellers leaving the country are statutorily required to declare cash in excess of $ 10,000. However, under the provisions of the Money Laundering Act, it is not sufficient to declare excess cash; the onus is on the person making the declaration to explain the source of the excess cash and the reason for the export. The EFCC noted that globally, bulk cash smuggling is usually associated with proceeds of crime, where legitimately earned funds are processed through the banking system. “Our experience in the last few years indicates an emerging trend of bulk cash smuggling to Europe, Middle East and North America with the attendant consequence for capital flight. Some Nigerian citizens are routinely arrested at airports in Europe and North American for currency smuggling though no such arrests have been recorded in the Middle East. But in all cases, the money is lost as they are never repatriated back to the country.” The Commission warned travellers who wish to move bulk cash out of the country to do so through the banking system, or to be prepared to declare it and explain its origin. Sheriff is being detained at the EFCC’s holding facility in Lagos pending his arraignment in court.
