Engr. Strive Masiyiwa, the Zimbabwean- Founder of Econet, made his money in Nigeria and he publicly declares this fact every time.

Nigeria will bless those who bless Nigeria and curse those who curse Nigeria.

We are the powerhouse of the Black Race.
Invest in Lagos today.

May God continue to bless Nigeria.

Ase! Amen! Aameen!!!

Igbo wealth is well distributed among the population, that is why it is argued that Igbos are the richest in Africa. Dangote, Otedola, Adenuga money is a mega wealth that involves huge credit owing not liquid cash.

Why do you waste your time engaging with these vile xenophobes? You don’t know it’s lost on them, as the brag and gloat, how telling and indicting a list that its Nigerian content is made up TOTALLY of just two ethnic groups…not just out of all the many others in Nigeria, but also bearing in mind that we are told Nigeria has THREE major ethnic groups, with one leg of the tripod TOTALLY not represented! If this doesn’t show the rest of Nigeria how the Yoruba/Fulani hegemonic alliance has structured the Nigerian political-economy to primarily favour them over others, then nothing else would!

I’m not and can never be surprised at how things have played out! It’s the gullible and daft other Nigerians i pity because they seem to be blissfully comfortable in their ignorant….especially the ‘one Nigerianist’ Igbo amongst them!

Igbos might not appear in Forbes but they are the richest in Africa. Wealth is not an individual something but how the wealth is distribution among population.

Talking about wealthy populations, to still have more wealthy populations than the Igbo.
Most average yorubas are very comfortable compared to igbos

Pls where is the name of the people that developed everywhere in Nigeria, people that claim there is no poverty in their region, SE, I hope forbes didn't make that error by omitting their names. Pls forbes should cross check their records very well. Obi cubana must be on the list.

I swear to Christ almighty, nobody truly knows that man's net worth.

They say he's a notoriously secretive man, the figures put there is definitely less than he has.

Life is about contentment.

Now imagine if Elon Musk ends up with Dangote's fortune. He will be considered a colossal failure. And if Dangote ends up with Obi Cubana's net worth, he will definitely jump off 3rd Mainland bridge.

Keep wailing, if you don't get it you just can't get it.

Two out of the four Yoruba are not base in Nigeria they are base abroad, Bayo Ogunlesi and Tope Awotona both made their money in UK and US. Is it only Yoruba that can travel abroad in Nigeria? Are there no Igbo in UK and US ? But when others are hustling hard your people must be focus on something else like following Ekpa and smuggling drugs.

UK and US government must be marginalizing Igbo too

Na people wey list their shares in stock exchanges Forbes dey count.

Arthur Eze is definitely richer than Femi Otedola. Cash money does not count for Forbes.

Besides Tony Elumelu and Jim Ovia would be on the list if actual billions are taking into consideration.

...and Dangote is way richer than the lousy 10.9 billion listed by Forbes.
