Okay, this makes sense. Because if private assets are included, I can't imagine how Sayyu Dantata will rank among the top 5. But $67 million? That nigga is paid. Too bad he spends it all on ponies and all those hausa women.

Since the listing was based on stock holdings, yes I think Jim Ovia should make the top 5 list (founding MD who dedinitely owned the highest share-holding in the hugely-capitalised bank).

No point in putting Dangote's name. We know he should rank as Numero uno in any list involving Money Nigeria, or even Africa for that matter. I'm surprised to see Wale Tinubu (Oando PLC) missing from the list. Or doesn't he have a significant share-holding in the company?

Linda abeg its not an official Forbes article, its that blogger on Forbes.

Forbes clearly state there that

"The author is a Forbes contributor. The opinions expressed are those of the writer."

Please make sure to put in the article.

Thing with shares is that your worth depends on the company. Its not liquid, and if market crashes tomorrow, it can change drastically.
Eddie Martins sure is chilling sha, too many behind the scene rich men in naija:)

Proud Aristo babe said...

what kind of places do these men visit or rather like to chill at? I am a very low key aristo babe and would love to "take care" of just one or two of these men. Also kindly let me know the one who is into men or boys so I know not to target him...lol...chei! there is mula, cheddar, ego, money, owo in some peoples wallets sha

Oba Otudeko has more stocks than that..... Everyone in the Know Knows that he's the richest shareholder in Nigeria. He has been trading in shares since NSE inception. Forbes ommitted Ndi Okereke-Onyuike,

CLF said...

Rubbish. The captains of industry aren't even named here. For as long as i've known myself (plus through my parents who are big into buying shares,) these names have always been mentioned; Gamaliel Onosode (don't be deceived by his humility plus he doesn't take bank loans,) Wakilin Adamawa/Hassan Adamu, Bamanga Tukur, Christopher Kolade, Chris Ogunbanjo, Bayo Kuku, Bishop Okonkwo and even the late Folawiyo. They don't make any din....

Do they give award?Do they give award?

AJCiti said...

Interesting list... Dangote was an obvious one.. it's crazy how his wealth is substantially greater than all the others lol. But I'm sure there are a few more illegitimate billionaires in Naija.

Remember stock is only worth what one is willing to pay for it at any point in time.

Dangote is wealthy, but I don't think he's liquid.

sakara said...

@ Anon August 13, 2011 4:11 PM, u r an IDIOT, a BORN FOOL, so the fact that a yoruba man and an hausa man are also included is not significant? God would not be with those tribes abi? And d fool, Alicia would not see this 1 o. She would be screaming tribalism if igbo ppl are insulted but would not say anything when other tribes are being maligned.
@CLF, don't be silly. Can't you read? the damn post says "TOP FIVE". How hard is it for you to comprehend? It does not say top ten. Happy birthday to your parents. What present should we give them? Make your own list since you know so much.

Anonymous said...

Oya you people keep naming names, let the blood suckers called runs girls start hunting these men down

CLF said...

Damie; why the bile because i gave my opinion? I don't agree with this list and i stated my opinion. These five are obviously not in my top five if you are too ignorant to realise that.

I don't believe everything i read.

State your opinion and get lost without maligning other people.

You have abused Alicia for no just reason and you have now abused me. Take your frustration away from here you this "ewu!"
