He is the son of Oloye Michael Agbolade Adenuga Sr, a school teacher, and his mother, Omoba Juliana Oyindamola Adenuga (n\u00e9e Onashile, of Okesopin, Ijebu Igbo), was a well-known businesswoman of her time.<\/p>\n<p>Mike was born and raised in Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria, but he is said to belong to be of a royal Ijebu descent from his maternal side. He is the youngest of five children, and though not much is known about all his siblings, we know of his older brother Otunba Demola Adenuga, an accomplished businessman with an interest in banking, conglomerate, and telecommunication; and an elder sister Chief Mrs. Margaret Afolashade Akande, popularly known as Mama Ikoyi.<\/p>\n<p>His other siblings include late Mrs. E.O. Osunsade, popularly called Aunty Olu, and Otunba Yetunde Adegbola.

On a daily basis, he would support his mother at her business place, and gradually, he was able to learn the trade. Although he may have added some academic knowledge to grow his present businesses, there is no doubt that the knowledge he gained while handling his mother&#8217;s business formed the bedrock of what he is today.<\/p>\n<p>It would interest you to know that one of Mike&#8217;s nicknames is John Bull because of his keen eyes for available and unexplored opportunities.

Having so much interest in business, Mike hastily returned home after his studies to take over his mother&#8217;s sawmill business. While handling what appeared to be his family business, he did other side businesses like selling lace materials and distributing soft drinks to add to his income.<\/p>\n<p>You will find it amazing to learn that Mike Adenuga had a humble beginning, hawking animal feed in the streets of Ibadan to being one of the richest men not just in Yoruba land or Nigeria but in the continent of Africa. In 1990, 37-year-old Mike received a drilling license. The following year, his Consolidated Oil Nigeria Limited headed for the shallow waters of the Southwestern State of Ondo State, making it the first indigenous oil company to do so in commercial quantity at the time. Consolidated Oil Nigeria Limited later changed its name to what is now widely known as Conoil Producing Plc.<\/p>\n<p>Mike&#8217;s oil exploration outfit, Conoil Producing, operates six oil blocks in the Niger Delta. The company, which has its headquarters at the Mike Adenuga Towers in Victoria Island, Lagos, is known for extracting, producing, selling crude oil, and supplying a range of lubricants and household and liquefied petroleum gas for use by the domestic and industrial sectors. Its range of lubricants includes transport lubricants, industrial lubricants, greases, process oil, and bitumen. Conoil also supplies what is referred to as White products: premium motor spirits, aviation turbine kerosene, dual-purpose kerosene, low-pour fuel oil, and automotive gasoline\/grease oil.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How He Joined the Telecommunication Industry<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In 1999, Adenuga went for a GSM license when telecommunication was just being introduced into the country, and he got a conditional license that was revoked. In 2003, he received a second one when the government held an auction again.\u00a0His telecom company, Globacom, began spreading so quickly and even began challenging the largest network providers then &#8211;\u00a0 MTN Group, which, at the time, was one of the two GSM companies that first debuted in Nigeria&#8217;s market, creating almost a duopoly.<\/p>\n<p>The emergence of Glo\u2014being the first indigenous GSM company, revolutionized the telecommunications industry for the good of ordinary Nigerians, and today, it is a network company to be reckoned with not just in Nigeria but also in a few other countries across Africa, with more licenses currently being prospected in other West African countries.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the best moves that distinguished the company among its peer at the time of its introduction in 2003 were its introduction of cheaper SIM cards to Nigerians who were initially buying one sim as high as N50,000 and its introduction of the per-second billing in voice calls that has today become the model for all telecoms industry players in Nigeria. Before the introduction of the latter,\u00a0 Nigerians were charged N50 per minute, and they could only buy N1500 recharge cards\u2014that had a 14-day lifeline. At the end of two weeks, if you could not finish the airtime, whatever airtime left would be frozen until you renew your line.<\/p>\n<p>Chief Adenuga-led Globalcom made all these cheaper and very much affordable for an ordinary citizen.\u00a0The company offers international and voice calling, SMS, high-speed internet, ADSL for homes, fixed landline services, and other telecoms solutions. Now regarded as the third largest telecommunications business in Nigeria with about 55 million subscribers (according to Forbes). As of this writing, Glo serves customers in the United Kingdom, Nigeria, Benin Republic, and Ghana.<\/p>\n<p>In 2011, Glo became the first telecom company to build an $800m high-capacity submarine fibre optics cable known as Glo 1 that successfully connected Nigeria to Europe. In 2015, Adenuga made a takeover bid to purchase Ivorian mobile telecom operator Comium C\u00f4te d&#8217;Ivoire for $600 million.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Mike Adenuga&#8217;s Net Worth is Currently $6.1 Billion<\/strong><\/h2>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BHzjJBojrMM\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

As of 2023, Mike Adeuga&#8217;s net worth has increased to a whopping $6.2 billion, and it is all thanks to his two major sources of wealth &#8211; his telecommunication and oil bloc businesses. Globacom boasts over $1.178 billion annual revenue, while Conoil company lists its net income at \u20a62.8 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Mike Adenuga is not just the second richest person in Nigeria, after <a href=\"https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/who-is-aliko-dangote-history-and-biography-of-the-richest-man-in-nigeria\/\">Aliko Dangote<\/a>, but he is also among the top five of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/africa-billionaires\/list\/#tab:overall\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Africa&#8217;s richest billionaires<\/a>. Mike is also among the top ten richest black billionaires in the whole world.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Mike-Adenuga1.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1642\" src=\"https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Mike-Adenuga1.png\" alt=\"Mike-Adenuga1\" width=\"997\" height=\"749\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Mike is so wealthy that you would be sure his house should be a haven, and sure it is. His estate (this is because the house is more than just a mansion) located in Banana Island is said to be called Gold digger&#8217;s den and is worth over N1 billion.<\/p>\n<p>The massive estate is said to have been handled by Julius Berger and Cappa &amp; D&#8217;Alberto. It comprises eight duplexes and an additional one for his residence with a home office (the gold one), two watchtowers, a mosque, a church, and a multipurpose hall that seats 200 people. It also has an indoor swimming pool, car park, helipad, and yacht deck, and it sits on roughly 3 hectares.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>He Is So Rich That He Bought His Own Burial Tomb<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Mike is also a very weird man. He recently purchased a Disney vault (burial tomb) for himself for a whopping N200 million at the upscale Vaults and Gardens, Ikoyi. It is said that he bought the same space for his sister when she died.

She said the false allegations leveled against her by her former boss, was because she walked away from a 27-year love relationship with him for her peace of mind.<\/p>\n<p>Further report has it that Adenuga had accused her of diverting about $300,000 belonging to Worldspan Holdings (One of Mike Adenuga&#8217;s alleged companies), which was meant to be transferred to a Conoil account, to a different account in China for her benefits.<\/p>\n<p>While Mr. Adenuga is yet to comment on the matter, Justice A. Lewis Allagoa, Presiding Judge, Federal High Court ( Lagos Division), has ordered the EFCC to take possession of all properties owned by Ms. Nora Johnson. The anti-graft agency had received a petition over some infractions allegedly committed in her former office.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>His Refusal To Pay Multi-million Dollar Company&#8217;s Debts<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In October 2021, Mike Adenuga was reportedly being haunted over an unpaid debt of about $7 million. According to <a href=\"http:\/\/saharareporters.com\/2021\/10\/22\/exclusive-fresh-law-suits-loom-nigerian-billionaire-michael-adenuga-after-refusing-pay\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reports<\/a>, a foreign company and a local company were after Conpurex, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Adenuga&#8217;s oil and gas conglomerate Conoil.<\/p>\n<p>It was said that Conpurex owes Depthwize, an Ibadan-based drilling contractor, more than US$6,248,441.27 ($6.2 million), making it unable to pay its US partner Megadrill. With the payment now more than a year overdue, Megadrill then hired New Orleans law firm, Jones Walker, to recover the funds from Conoil.<\/p>\n<p>Megadrill is not alone in this pursuit. Zukus Industries Limited, an oil and gas services contractor, has also revealed that Adenuga&#8217;s Conoil is owing it over N317,750,268.09 (about $700,000) in outstanding invoice and that it has written the company thrice to pay up. All these poor debt records are said to be affecting their attempts to expand their operations.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What We Know about Mike Adenuga&#8217;s Family and Private Life<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Mike Adenuga is a well-known polygamist who has had relationships with many women, one of whom is Titi Joyce, with whom he has two children.
