In the oil and gas we cab count over 30
In the indystrial area there are over 30
Business there are over 30

They don't know how robust SA is.

Wickedfacts:


The annual budget of GE is larger than Africa's budget.

Lawd

the headline is so wrong......to think that moderators push this to frontpage shows how dumb they are.....GDP isn't the same as income per capita

Forget it jaree, my former state governor richer than that useless S/Africa called xenophobia people

Meaning Nigeria no longer the giant of Africa?

Fake nonsense list! Nigeria is African largest Enconomy. These idiots and foreign media only highlight the poverty in the country forgetting the insanely rich class of Nigeria whom are not even politicians. The kind of silent billionaires we have in Nigeria go shock them. I am sure this propaganda is from South Africa. Mtcheew!

Local man cannot can.

Nigeria is rich but hunger kills some of her citizens everyday.

Whoever made this list should be given village slap while he/she is sleeping.

Nonsense and ingredients!

Okay, see my signature below

APC this list must from pdp

Technically we should be last because of our high population.

Nigeria is the third wealthiest country in Africa for 2019 — despite being home to billionaire Aliko Dangote

There are two Nigerians on the list of the Forbes top 5 African billionaires ruled by Aliko Dangote.

You would think this would make Nigeria the wealthiest country on the continent.
The new 2019 Wealth Report compiled by AfrAsia Bank says otherwise as Nigeria is ranked as Africa’s third wealthiest nation and Lagos state the fourth wealthiest city.

Nigeria is home to two of Africa’s richest people — Aliko Dangote with $10.3 billion and Mike Adenuga with $9.2 billion — as estimated by Forbes.

However, data from the September 2019 Wealth Report compiled by AfrAsia Bank shows that it is not the wealthiest nation on the continent.

The number one position goes to South Africa with a total wealth of $649 billion. This excludes government funds and includes private wealth (properties, cash, business interests and equities) held by all the people living in each country.

Egypt is in second place with $303 billion while Nigeria follows with $225 billion.

The report cited the following as reasons for Nigeria’s ranking:

Safety concerns and tensions
Outgoing migration of high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs)
Investors running away because of the clampdown on foreign companies like MTN
Decrease in oil prices
Loss of value in Naira compared to the US dollar

City Ranking

Nigeria ranks even lower in the statistics for the wealthiest cities in Africa. In the list ruled by Johannesburg, Capetown (both in South Africa), and Egypt's Cairo, Lagos, Nigeria is ranked the fourth.

Despite being the largest city in the continent in terms of population and Gross domestic products (GDP), Lagos only has a total wealth of $96 billion.

As of December 2018, Africa has a total wealth of $2.2 trillion, 42 per cent of which is belongs to HNWIs. This shows the alarming disparity between the rich and poor.

1. South Africa - $649 billion

2. Egypt - $303 billion

3. Nigeria - $225 billion

4. Morocco $114 billion

5. Kenya $93 billion

6. Angola $69 billion

7. Ghana $59 billion

8. Ethiopia $57 billion

9. Tanzania $57 billion

this must be a ranking by a Bias South African

You'll sha be running your mouth anyhow without knowing anything, new York GDP as at now stands at $1.2trillion and it's not even the richest city in the world,even ordinary London is almost as rich as Nigeria and south Africa combined at almost $800bn so no need to call California that is almost two times richer than the whole continent.

Combined wealth of Africa is 2 trillion dollars! So are you saying that USA is richer than whole AFRICA?

USA is too much, the state of California alone is far richer than Africa.

The most important thing is the Gdp per capital all this ones don't count as much.
