More South-East Billionaires Listed On Forbes List Of Billionaires by kettykin: 9:12pm On Nov 19, 2014 |
from 20 Pounds 44 years ago and abandoned property Igbos are taking over Forbes List of African Billionaires There are three new billionaires on the list: Orji Uzor Kalu of Nigeria, Tony Elumelu of Nigeria and King Mohammed VI of Morocco. Three billionaires on last year’s list are no longer members of the 10-figure club: Vimal Shah of Kenya is off the list, replaced by his father Bhimji Depar Shah at a lower net worth. Abdulsamad Rabiu of Nigeria dropped below $1 billion due to ceased operations at his floating cement terminal in Nigeria. And South African mining mogul Desmond Sacco dropped to a net worth of $680 million, down from $1.4 billion last year, because of a sharp decline in the share price of his mining firm Assore Group. The net result: the number of billionaires on the list stayed steady with 2013 at 27. Orji Kalu , Tony Elumelu makes list of Forbes African billionaires , Silent igbo billionaires that were not listed include Ibeto, Cosmas Maduka, Arthur Eze, Emeka Offor e.t.c 13 Likes |

A note to Niger Deltans and other Nigerians , the igbos who made the List have no links whatsoever with Niger Delta Oil unlike some of the other Nigerian billionaires who were allocated Niger Delta oil wells by the Northern Military heads of state . These Include Mike Adenuga, TY Danjuma, Folorunsho Alakija,Femi otedola,mohammed Indimi, Tunde Folawiyo etc these have feasted and still feast on Niger Delta heritage see the full list below http://www.forbes.com/africa-billionaires/list/#tab:overall 61 Likes 1 Share |

IGBOSON1: My brother , it is really painful and very shameful Not even one Niger Deltan , Ijaw, Urhobo, Ibibio,Ogoni, Calabari, Efik is on this List despite that the Oil wells are in Niger Delta , A second look on this list shows that all the yorubas on this list with Danjuma made their billions from Niger Delta Oil while no Niger deltan is on this list, i am trying to correlate this fact with the current agitation by some south westerners for power to shift back to the North even when a Niger deltan and fellow southerner is eligible and constitutionally legit to contest the elections . it is on record that the greatest opposition to Jonathan's aspiration to contest for the presidency is from the south west and also the greatest beneficiaries of Niger Delta oil wealth is from the South West 15 Likes |

kettykin: Its also on record that the greatest agitators for Jonathan to be made substantive president following the death of Yar'Adua were people from the South West. We would also note that at the forefront for the fight on the Saro Wiwa killings were the people from the South West while we know those who went to wish him "Good morning" 26 Likes |
