Nigeria is one of the largest and most populated countries in Africa, priding itself in having some of the richest men in Africa and the world. While we believe there are several more Nigerians who would rank among the richest men in Nigeria today, we’ve discovered that just a few have made the Forbes or Bloomberg’s list, the reason being that companies like Forbes and Bloomberg estimate the wealth of individuals and usually rank them based on the value of shares they have in quoted companies (i.e., companies listed on the stock exchange).<\/p>\n
