There's one more name that will soon be on the list. Not sure why he didn't make this year's list.

You think an Igbo man cares about Forbes list?


grin grin

You’re either a impostor pretending to be Igbo so you can kickstart in earnest the mass wankfest of the e-thugs on this thread….either that, or you’re one naive Igbo for you not to understand why the insecure fckers keep on creating new threads on this very same topic and pushing it to front page!

The last thread on this, they created about a week or so ago, to which i gave a robust response to their gloating, ethnic baiting and wankathon! My post was successfully submitted, but when i checked back about a minute later, someone with the power to do so had sneakily used the autobot ban thingy to hide my post and ban me from the culture section for 5 days just so they could carry on in ‘peace’ with their mocking, gloating and abuse of Ndigbo without that ‘i-too-sabi okoro’ interjecting and ruining things for them! I just looked at the entire episode and laughed! grin

It’s like these insecure Igbo-hating bigots constantly need to reassure themselves that they’re doing better than the Igbo in order to have some sort of validation in life and be able to sleep well! They need to be pitied and not laughed at!

Some people are yet to appreciate the kind of stupendous wealth and opportunities that have been available and controlled by the Yoruba/Fulani hegemonic alliance for almost 6 decades now by virtue of their control of the political-economy of a resource-rich (both human and natural) country like Nigeria! It couldn’t have gone unnoticed that in a country as ethnically heterogeneous as Nigeria is….a country we’re told has three major ethnic groupings, that the Nigerians on the list they’re waving in our faces consist exclusively of just the Yoruba and Hausa/Fulani! The way they tell it, only these two ethnic groupings go school and sabi entrepreneurship while the rest of us are ignorant muppets! shocked

Everyone on the list are like you 40 years ago, average citizen and average quality of life. Difference? Modesty and humility!

Dangote is worth 24 billion usd dollars but still drives himself occasionally. Not like the lousy money na water gang!
