Vanity Fair in their report wrote that Mrs Alakija owns five apartments in the 6,000 pounds-per-square-feet apartment block which she bought at a combined fee of $123 million (N18.4billion), making her the second highest property owner in the upmarket area after Rinat Akhmetov, Ukraine’s richest man and owner of Ukranian football club, Shaktar Donesk, whose property is valued at $215.9 million.
Others who own property at One Hyde Park include some of the richest men in Britain, Russia, Taiwan, sheiks from UAE, Naomi Campbell's boyfriend Vladislav Doronin also owns an apartment there.
According to the investigation by tax haven expert, Nicholas Shaxton, who wrote the report for Vanity Fair, just 17 of the 76 sold apartments are primary residences. Because the property owners are so wealthy, many of them have other homes and do not use their exclusive Hyde Park address as their permanent home. Shaxton also revealed that many of the owners use offshore companies to buy the homes to enable them hide their identity.

What WORLD RICHEST Nigerians like Folorunsho Alakija Aliko Dangote Mike Adenuga have in common? Government PATRONAGE main source of income.
In the Nigerian MIRACLE a daft hair dresser gets 1 Oil Block and becomes WORLDS RICHEST BLACK WOMEN. A lunatic retired General like Danjuma gets his own OIL BLOCK & informs the world he does not even know what to do with his money.
Government stifles competition and allocate Aliko Dangote sole right to import rice, cement and supply same to Nigerian Army and he becomes AFRICA'S RICHEST MAN. Hard working Nigerian business men and women, innovators, scientists and even intellectuals who PLAY BY THE RULES are wallowing in PENURY.
The craze is even spreading to younger generation of Nigerians. A smart Nigerian mobilise Nigerians under a very attractive project of LIGHT UP NIGERIA. He gets hundreds of thousands of LIKES on social media converting same to praising those who are responsible for bringing DARKNESS into Nigeria and the LIGHT UP NIGERIA smart dood becomes an overnight million owner. It is such a jungle in Nigeria that breaking rules is the MAIN road to success and to cap it all Imams Babalawos and Pastors are smiling to the bank as a result of HARVEST THANKSGIVING.
What a HOLE of COUNTRY!
The only reasonable post so far!how come she became wealthy overnight?how did she get d oil block?naija4life
How does a fashion designer get hold of oil blocs #OnlyInNaija
Walahi
Go and work hard
To Whom it May Concern,
Ever so frequently I see these sensational headlines regarding Nigeria or Nigerians online. When I look to find alternative sources for confirmation, I find pretty much the same articles plastered across Nigerian websites. I've looked at the Vanity Fair website and searched for Folorunsho Alakija - there are no results. Granted, there it could be that they mentioned her real estate investments in a side bar and so do not have a full article on her. However, even if it's not the case in this particular situation, people are constantly publishing things without sufficient backup for their claims. I don't doubt this woman's wealth or that she could very well have done what the stories claim, but the regular exaggerated BS makes it so difficult to separate fact from fiction.
Like we didn't know the IBB connection na only person wey dem just born no go know say the money no pure . Issorai ooooooo unna no go carry am go heaven sha !!!!!!!!!! Eese Basaaata mesa ( six feet ) .
Bet she just uses one...holiday pad and let the rest out. some good investment portfolio thoo
I only hope and pray that in her home place,there is clean water,cos wiv al this wealth n stil der s no free clinic,clean water n free elementary schl in ur home place den am sorry u are still poor...God blesses to for us to become Chanel of blessings.
Tell ur "rich" father to do that.. Shebi,u claim u have a rich father...msheeeew
When going 6ft under, our net worths are all the same...
What has she done for her community? mtchhheeeeeeew!
"The number of people you bless is how you measure success".. she owns multi-billion naira properties abroad and families can hardly afford a meal in delta state (if they have a roof to sleep under),children in damaturu and maiduguri have no books to read at school if they attend at all. you can have it all just remember that a generation may be blessed just from the price of one of your headgears.. #bless..
Bastard u re part of what makes nigeria a bad place,u will never support d brand nigeria bt support others,keep hating and see hw far u gt in life,omo ale jati jati
I just av to be rich aint no man gon hold me down
Na niger delta oil monee!
Folurunsho Alakija's wealth is a product of massive corruption. The oil lock belonging to Niger Delta people and Nigerians in general was given to Alakija's by Babangida through a corrupt process. She has never hustled for anything in live. If the President of Nigeria decides to give anybody an oil block, it is not rocket science that you will be wealthy. I puke when the social media praises these thieves and rogues and try to make them heroes and heroines. The poor in Nigeria are cursed to be poor and to suffer eternally, for as long as the few with access to our commonwealth continue to loot and appropriate all for themselves to the exclusion of the majority. Stop the glorification of the Alakija's, they are recipients of stolen property and are thieves on a large scale. Chikena.
Behold you have hearkened to the voice of reason.Obviously you knw what u re doing or representing is BAD!in all ramification....Thank God.Not tryin to judge u,but jst wanna beg you to fear God...He sees,He knws everythng we do even when no one is watching.
Linda pls who doesnt knw shes the richest black woman nd can definitely afford that so pls olodo linda gv sometin more interesting
She's never served in govt.If she positioned herself to be favoured n she was,how is that any fault of hers?
Big poor fool. Better go home and talk sense to your poor mama to be like her when she comes back to this world.
When exactly will we stop glorifying citizens with ill-gotten wealth? Seriously?
Oh no lets not go down that hulla-ballo lane of her wealth being as a result of corruption. Be that as it may, she has turned it around and made an honest living out of it. Me i admire any woman who has made a BIG SUCCESS from life. She plays in a turf where some men fear to tread for that i celebrate her abeg lets leave biff talk true and just be happy for her.
Ђ☺ω can u call her fool ..idiot ,be beefing success
U know say English na ur papa language.Omol ale jati jati.have u ever heard of typogragphical error?
and she would go to the grave with it abi? how many nigerians has she employed? mschew and as for you linda please stop glorifying THIEFS cos as long as dem no dey spend on the poor abeg forget them mschew
not impressed. what is the source of her wealth, for how long did she toil and what stages did her business pass thru b4 getting here? we ought to stop celebrating wealth without "genuine" sources. Thanks.
Linda stop celebrating the people who looted and collaborated to rob dis country blind. She is part of our very corrupt pasr and present. Pls she is not wprth celebrating. How can u explain that Maryam Babangidas former hairdresser, was given an oil block and she is now one of the richest people in the world? Nigeria we hail thee.
what has the brittish and French done for communinities they mine in. why tear her down. emerolds and diamond mining owner.
Stupiid we need to stop yearning down black ppl when they become successful the brittish own diamond and emerold mines what are they doing for Africans give thwm electricity. the cost has no comparison to their profits
Brittish owned diamond , gold, diamond mining n Africa dnt hear anyones opinion on them.
