So Dangote who is number 1 did not borrow to build his refinery ba?

Before you start your blind argument
Oga google Dangote's net worth 5 years ago and compare it to his current net worth
You will see the difference

Bestmanfornow:
Elumelu is far richer than Otedola, even Otedola know Elumelu no be in mate, Otedola flex muscle in AP with the help of Obasanjo to take over the majority shares in Ap, the flex his muscle in First bank, he wanted to try that in Transcorp, Elumelu placed him where he belong 🤣😂🤣

Oga rest
Elumelu is no dollar billionaire
You know nothing about the business world
All i see is a tribalistic fellow trying to validate his tribesmen as dollar billionaires which clearly they are not

That's how you all were ranting that Obi Cubana was a dollar billionaire after his late mother's burial

Funny thing is that he is not even a centi-millionaire in dollars

You people should continue lying to yourselves

I laugh when i see people saying how come Mr A is not a dollar billionaire when he has 5 companies, 5 private jets and 50 aircrafts

I blame YouTubers for this because they just dish out billions of dollars as net worth when ranking richest men in Nigeria without doing thorough research

Why many of these well known businessmen are not on Forbes billionaire list is the amount of debt or liability they have....Truth be told a lot of them borrow to fund their enterprises, hence these affects their net worth when been ranked by Forbes

Please you people should stop seeing things along ethnic line
We as a country are too tribalistic and its really affecting our development as a nation

Politicans are not included on Forbes billionaire list for obvious reasons.
It might be true that Putin is richer than Elon Musk but will still not be on the list because he is a politician

Nigeria has just few dollar billionaires, whether silent or well known

because

1 billion dollar is miles ahead of 1 billion naira


Namaste

Your reply clearly display your brain thinking ability. What you call poverty is relative. In America or Europe no worker or citizen build house of 10 million at a goal or buy a car worth 10 million, 15million etc cash down, like we do here. They spread your payments for u to like 5, 10, 15, or 30yrs as d case may be.
Everyday in Nigeria millions of people are buying items, equipments, shopping worth millions or naira cash down and u think we are poor.
Dey play.
How many parents in America or Europe pay the kind of sch fees Nigeria parents are paying every term or session? And u think that's poverty?

The millions of people you're ranting about is not up to 5% of the population
I follow data, not social media noise
South Africa and Egypt has more number of wealthy individuals than Nigeria
We are just gaint of Africa on social media

No one can honestly say Messi was the best player in the last 12 months . A 7 game tournament is not the only football that was played in the past 12 months ... If they say it's all about the world cup, how come mbappe dint finish second ... Mbappe had a better tournament than Messi....was top scorer with 8goals ( 2 penalties included) ... anyone that understands this game knows its all propaganda...

2010 Spain won their first ever world cup , they dint remember that it was all about the world cup . They still gave it to Messi, saying he won la liga and was top scorer in Europe and champions league ... 12 yrs later , halaand wins mancitys first ever treble , top scorer in the league with a new record , top scorer in champions league, top scorer in Europe and they still give Messi that PSG fans booed out of France for failing to help the team pass round of 16 in CL....

As someone rightly said, if halaand won the world cup and Messi won the champions league and ligue1 with psg and was top scorer in both competitions, they will still give Messi...

Fifa and the balon dor are just Messi lickers .... no football player in history has ever received 10% pampering Messi has received in his career ...

Suddenly winning the world cup gets u the balon dor... but it dint in 2010, 2014 and 2018... Messi wins the WC and it becomes a criteria again... if u condemn INEC and support this nonsense award , then u are a certified hypocrite

Saying that Mbappe had a better world cup tournament than Messi makes you a big clown
Maybe you were watching Telemundo and confusing it for the world cup
When it comes to Messi its always rigged but you guys didn't shout rigged in 2013 when Ronaldo fraudulently received the award ahead of Ribery who won a treble that year

Bloody Hypocrites

Oxfam Report discovered that the gap between the wealthy 1% and the masses became very wide after the pandemic due to the lockdown
This is because most of the wealthy 1% were accumulating wealth via their business such as essential services and goods as well as their social media platforms etc while the masses were just idle at home feeding off their purse without replenishing it.
So the report proposed higher % tax for the wealthy 1% inorder for government to provide the basic needs of the masses
But believe you me that that's never going to happen because the rich wants to continue getting richer.
This scenario is even worst in Africa

wasuka14:
This is a very stupid figure. Lagos state alone have more than 5 million millionaires. What are u talking?

Dey play
I million dollars is valued at more than 1 billion naira
How many of your so called Lagosian millionaires are worth 1 billion naira and above with the high level of poverty currently ravaging Nigeria
Keep believing the fake life Nigerians showcase on social media everyday
Its all a facade

Just dey play

benuejosh:
How can you say only 4 billionaires in Nigeria? Only Anambra has the highest number of billionaires in West Africa combined. They include and not limited to Obi Cubana, Emoney, and others. But they choose not to disclose themselves.

Source: Lagos Developers.

On behalf of myself and my inlaws from the East, we reject that report.

Oga billion dollars is not billion naira
The obi cubana and e-money you are making noise about might not even be centi-millionaires but rather ultra-high networth millionaires ( worth 30 million dollars and above but worth less than 100 million dollars)
Only 1 million dollars can make one live like a king in Africa
Even the UK all Nigerians want to run to doesn't have up to 60 dollar billionaires
Is Nigeria wealthier or more advanced than the UK
Learn to follow facts and not sentiment
Nigerians are just natural noise makers

I see 24 as of today's networth. Is it that they mistakenly omitted the 2 in front of the 4 ?🤔

Most of these individuals you mentioned are centi-millionaires in dollars not billionaires in dollars
Otedola has dropped from billionaire status according to Forbes
Forbes doesn't include politicians when ranking billionaires because we all know that some of our politicans are billionaires in dollars
Bloggers are the ones tagging every wealthy Nigerian as dollar billionaire without proper research while in reality they are just naira billionaires.
Forbes might not be 100% correct but their statistics is >90% accurate and they have been ranking billionaires globally for years
Make una rest, in reality we don't have up to 10 dollar billionaires in this country
Everything una dey read online na just lamba
Nigerians are just natural noise makers

Nigerians and low self-esteem
Equating price of cream to healthier skin care
You guys should keep introducing cancer causing agents into your body in the name of "am using a more expensive cream than you"

The funny thing is that cheaper creams/lotions like baby oil, vaseline are more healthier to the skin than one 500k customized cream that contains all kinds of carcinogens because the manufacturers only care about having a fat bank account.

The most annoying set of people are the bleaching crew
That's the lowest level of low self-esteem
