One of the most difficult things to do is to identify who's richer than who in igbo land. Most of them don't like the publicity or razzmatazz. They just want to make money peacefully. I can give you five names now that can beat those you mentioned there: 1. Ernest Obiajesi: CEO of Nestoil plc and Obijackson Group. 2. Uche Ogah: President of Masters Energy Group 3. Ifeanyi Ubah: CEO of Capital oil 4. Cosmas Maduka: President of Coscharis Group 5. Bishop Okonkwo: CEO of Ekulo Holdings 6. Tony Ezenna: CEO of Orange drugs 7. Emeka Offor: CEO of Chrome Group 8. Orji Uzor Kalu: CEO of Slok Group 9. Innocent Chukwuma: CEO of Innoson Group 10 Likes |

nazicartel: Leo Ekeh is not that rich to be bigger than uche. Visit uturu and take a facility tour of his multi industries in one location and evaluate it. What many state govts mouth on seeking to achieve; an industrial cluster with many industries in one location, the guy has single handedly set it up by himself where different factories are busy manufacturing their own products such as tricycle, gp tanks, pipes, roofing sheets, engine oil, brake oil, rice plant, vegetable oil, salt, even biscuits etc. Zinox doesn't come close 8 Likes |

ken6488: See this one. For the facts that one of your Uncle's no use you do money Rituals, no mean say you don escape. As we speak, one of them might be restrategising on how to strike. If I were you, I will never visit any of my relatives who stay in the City. If you do, you might become a victim of Rituals and your fellow Igbo men will continue to celebrate that your relative. 8 Likes 1 Share

NinjaMetahuman:lol, they would soon come for you and insist the Igbo guys just want to make money quietly. I wonder how they arrive at their own networth estimate (probably just size who they like up and quote a figure). Their are criteria and ipo which are put up in public stocks that are summed up to know a persons worth not some gossip from beer parlour after hangover on what people perceive as networth 5 Likes 1 Share |
