[riogong]

Aliko is numero uno...

[pamphylpambi]

How did Ali Bongo get to 10.6 billions?

[cositomore]

FUCKINLY LIE ... ALIKO IS THE NUMBER ONE

[DaR3dD3vil]

LOL.. Where is Mohammed Hussein Al Amoudi from Ethiopia? He's not a president, but he is worth $12.3 Billions, but he is not in the list..

[HotMASHAfromRussia]

@DaR3dD3vil Ethiopia?? he from Saudi Arabia, isnt Africa

[DaR3dD3vil]

@HotMASHAfromRussia He was born and grew up in Ethiopia, he is half ethiopian/half Saudi Arabian..

[HotMASHAfromRussia]

@DaR3dD3vil ok. i know about Al Amoudi, but taken into account only citizenship

[kkirera]

@HotMASHAfromRussia I would like to see one list including East Africa..... Manu Chandaria is possibly the second richest person in Africa after Dangote.....

[53Africa]

@HotMASHAfromRussia? Ti kto takoi blen, he is an Ethiopian Muslim and has nothing to do with Saudi Arabia at all my Afro Russia

[EgbesuJuju2010]

Please do not add presidents of countries to this list. For one only the stupid ones would agree to be put on such a list. We want to be inspired by genuine business men not corrupt leaders who steal their peoples money.

[mnash3]

I am new to the site, if you get a chance to re-edit the video, please indicate the industries that these men represent. I know you included it on some. It could be something simple e.g. oil executive, owner of technology patents, real estate mogul, etc....

[mtiyoyo]

Patrice Motsepe(South African Mine Magnate) is the 2nd richest black person in the world after Oprah....say what??

[azanianlion]

@mtiyoyo There is a Nigerian that has more money than Patrick Motsepe. South Africa's newest billionaire is Ivan Glassenberg who was worth $9.8 when Glencore Int. was floated on London & HK stock exchanges. There are 10 South African billionaires but many made their wealth outside of Africa such as Clive Calder,the richest man in the music world $2.4 B.

[SpectacularFrontiers]

@azanianlion There are at least 15 to 20 billionaires( dollars) in Nigeria alone. But 90% of those individuals are not listed on the Forbes list because their companies are private. Once they go public( listed, IPO's) they no longer will be ignored by Forbes magazine

[azanianlion]

@SpectacularFrontiers Yes and many of the mafia dons have not been listed either. The late Gadaffi's wife is another one.

[SpectacularFrontiers]

@azanianlion South Africa is a model for other countries in Africa. No doubt. We in other countries want to emulate and surpass you. By 2015 or 2018 Nigeria is sure to surpass South Africa as the largest economy in Africa. Its a healthy rivalry between African brothers

[aitan844]

@SpectacularFrontiers who died and made you expert here noir american? you are always trolling and patrolling and playing the "expert" on african affairs lol you do realise that your brother sleeping with some random prostitue doesnt constitue "expertise" dont you , yes, we are going places so go back to your LAGOS SEWERS page to spew your hate ...and JEALOUSLY .. in da ghetto where you come from go and find anyone who knows what a MAP OF THE WORLD looks like. "tupac "

[cocolahtay]

Until Africa turns inward and starts producing for herself trading within and stops allowing Western entities (and Asia) any entry in the halls of politics and business, we will never truly be independent. But by the grace of God, it looks like people are wisening up nowadays.

[chi2uk]

The Equitorial guinea guy worth that much by just being the president??? Not fair. I would've been really happy if a black south african was among...don't get me wrong, i'm no racist...i admire successful people. I think Dangote is richer than Adenuga now idk

[ImQuietwoman]

zimbabwe is the poorest country in the world that peice of bull crap should give a billion bucks to help ppl survive

[ghrichuk]

The Politicians in this list like Obiang, Dos Santos are are brutal corrupt dictators who have stolen the money of the nation. 

[mymarkis666]

The Aid given, in my opinion, is just a way of making the West look like the heroes of the story when they're actually the villain. I understand many 'common' Westerners might not know about what goes on behind the scenes but the 'common' non-Westerner does know; and so China is like a huge breath of fresh air; even with the numerous flaws China has. Western companies also support a lot of the corruption that goes on, but they are rogues. Why do you think Climate Change will have a big effect?

[mymarkis666]

@TheARMAProductions When I said your lectures I meant the West, not you personally. No, I'm saying that the third world is (admittedly not so much these days but it was a BIG problem in the past) forced to pay economy-crippling amounts to the West in debt for ridiculously high-interest loans given in times of desperation like the Ethiopian Drought, for example. The amount paid out far exceeds the amount going in as aid; and thus that aid is returned to the West as debt.

[mymarkis666]

Have you ever stepped outside of the West before? There are many multi-cultural and multi-racial societies out in the world; most not due to a past evil. I grew up around Indians, Africans and the Oriental; yet the first time I learned about racism was reading about the West (in my teens, no less). Have you ever heard about third world debt? All the Aid the West gives it goes straight back to the West through that debt. That's why your lectures fall on deaf ears. And I had a late night lol.

[mymarkis666]

@TheARMAProductions Your not you're, just woke up <.<.

[mymarkis666]

@TheARMAProductions You can go inside American prisons and listen to those who have suffered; what is really you're point? Many people continue to suffer in the West, primarily due to biological differences. And then the West want to lecture everyone else on what it means to be a good person. Get the hell out of here.

[mymarkis666]

@TheARMAProductions There was nothing brutal about Gadaffi's regime. I don't know if you're just defending your Western power or you actually believe their lies. Gaddafi was a proud, pro-African man with the best interests of Africa in his heart. Of course the West had no problem toppling such a man; it was an added benefit to grabbing the oil. And now the Rebels are going around killing and raping Africans; fully backed by the West. America/Europe are intent on making every African hate them.

[mymarkis666]

Believe me, I know the Chinese are no angels. But it's their right to govern their own people with the method/s they see fit and I'm not going to sit here with you and judge it/them. Business between China/Africa is a win/win situation at the moment. One deal I know of is the Chinese spending $9B on houses/schools/hospitals etc in return for approximately $42B in resources after. Far better than just having the West occupy (to protect from 'terrorists' no doubt) Africa and steal those resources.

[mymarkis666]

The West will only start a big war out of desperation by which time the fate of the West will already be sealed. Ignoring the West as a potential partner is due to mistrust, not past deeds. Westerners are perceived as extremely slimy, selfish people who say one thing and do another. The Chinese are perceived as more similar to Africans, caring and sharing. A phrase that sums it up for me is 'if an African is thirsty a Chinaman will share his water but a white man will charge him 5 x the value.'

[mymarkis666]

@TheARMAProductions I'm talking in the long term.

[mymarkis666]

You didn't hit a nerve at all; I couldn't be bothered to debate a false dichotomy. But the West is in severe decline; I don't think even their attempts at installing a puppet regime in Libya for their oil will help the West recover the self inflicted wound it has received. Nearly all western countries gain wealth (and have gained wealth in the past) through conquest; in a peaceful environment the West will naturally grow frail and decay. China on the other hand; now there's a real threat.

[mymarkis666]

@TheARMAProductions Oh right I see; making progress actually means that you're already living in a prosperous society straight away. Thanks for the clarification. Now fuck off.

[mymarkis666]

@TheARMAProductions You're talking about something like you're knowledgeable about the subject when clearly you are not.

[samyethio]

WTF where is Mohammed Al Amoudi?

[EffectiveMarketing1]

I am a mutlti-billionaire

[GamingGuy18]

I'm sorry, but that is soo bullshit. How do you know that USA didn't land on the moon?Show me some proof!

[heaty007]

@GamingGuy18 So please explain why the shuttles you have today can't even leave the orbit of the earth? Seriously in the 60's they didn't have half the Tech of today and yet you believe such nonsense.

You believe anything you see on TV. That's why you believed that Iraq had WMDs. lol what bullshit. 1 million citizens of Iraq died because of that and when you found out it was a lie you did nothing.

[2000agogo]

Check out he FORBES Ranking folks!.......

[heaty007]

@2000agogo Forbes is full of shit. Actually Western Media is full of shit. You act like there is nothing in Africa because your media keeps feeding you bullshit. Haven't you ever wondered why you never see shows on Africa's wealth or the beautiful beaches hotels and resorts. Or the great schools? They want you to think Africa is shit on purpose. Get smart and do your own research.

[2000agogo]

@heaty007 Heh,don't be moron here,ok? You think this is a cool ranking praising corruption by including African bad president who has enriched themselves with "NATION's WEALTH" .....These are fools and bunch of cuckoos who are living in a lost world.Do you think that FORBES will be stupid enough like the guy who compiled this video to ranked these otherwise chumps for the world to praise. Aliko Dangote and the few othrs here can be awarded cos they works for their wealth.....

[2000agogo]

lies!!!!!!!!!

[mymarkis666]

@noticityrealicity None of those are accurate descriptions, though. Take your evil somewhere else. I know crackers hate seeing blacks make progress but go post on a white pride video or some other bullshit like that. Stop trolling on this page. Typical cum-coloured white.

[noticityrealicity]

@mymarkis666 Could this be another anti-white racist, using all the white devil's inventions, such as the ones he/she is using this very second - PC, internet & world wide web? Yep, I think so. lol

You people will only ever achieve mud huts, poverty, starvation, crime & disease. Just look at East Africa now, crying to the white devil for handouts. The white devil on the other hand, has achieved space flight and has landed on the MOON. LOL!

[mymarkis666]

@noticityrealicity Many blacks/Asians contributed to thost 3 inventions; but it really doesn't surprise me that whites want to take all the credit.

Yes, clearly the state Africa is in has nothing to do with the devil's occupation of it. America has already had its credit score downgraded; I personally can't wait for the collapse of the west.

[noticityrealicity]

@mymarkis666 "Many blacks/Asians contributed to thost 3 inventions"... so name them then. Go on, name them. :-D

You "can't wait for the collapse of the west"... but you choose to live in the west. LOL! Typical hypocrite. Just proves how crap your own life is. lol

The white devil no longer occupies Africa. Stop making excuses. But it was the white devil who built the infrastructure which now exists there e.g. South Africa. The average IQ of Africa is 65. That's retarded... LITERALLY. Hahaha...

[mymarkis666]

Off the top of my head there's Mark Dean and Otis Boykin who while not outright inventing them definitely contributed to their design. I would have to do research on the rest; which you can do yourself.

I live in the west? Since when? The devil still has his puppet regimes and is still funding rebels privately while condemning them publicly. But yes, ever since the devil officially vacated African countries have seen tremendous boosts in their economy without the devil bleeding them dry.

[pounder2day]

@noticityrealicity --what countries were these iqs taken and what areas?

[egbigan]

@pounder2day That guy (noticityrealicity) must be retarded. He does not know what he is talking about . ..Did he know how many Africans graduate each year in science,math and engineering all over the world? Did he know that Africans (west-Africans) are the greatest achievers in Europeans and Americans colleges? How can they even measure someone intelligence by numbers? IQ is the most retarded thing KKK scientists ever come up with. How can they explain people who has talent? He is a redneck ..

[MegaBlackunity]

@noticityrealicity the most retarded thing I ever heard in my entire life. You are in the street of Johannesburg thinking that you are more intelligent than all blacks in AFRICA? Do you know how many Africans graduate each year in COLLEGE in math ,science and engineering? How do you define INTELLIGENCE or CREATIVITY? How do you explain talent? How stupid can you be ? How did they measure the IQ of Africans? Did the go to the smart AFRICANS KIDS? or they went to those kids dying of AIDS?

[tamale26]

@noticityrealicity lol you really do believe that whitemen landed on the moon? You have been decieved. It is one of the greates lies ever told. This lie was favricated during the space race between Russia and America in an apparent bid to prove to Russia the Americans are superior. It was staged in an unknown destination in Britain

[noticityrealicity]

@tamale26 You are such a moron. Google 'Lunar Laser Ranging experiment'. When the moon landings happened, the astronauts left reflectors on the moon (or retroreflectors, rather). This is so a laser can be shot up, and these reflectors reflect them back, so scientists are able to accurately measure how far the moon is away from Earth... and to destroy any laughable arguments like yours. If they never landed on the moon, there would be no 'retroreflectors' on it.

Carry on with your fantasies. LOL

[kemetkush]

@noticityrealicity you zionists are funny..hahahaha

[noticityrealicity]

@kemetkush Zionist? lol

[kemetkush]

@noticityrealicity yes zionists????

[1Remnant]

All the kaffirs stole their money, so how does that qualify them.....one bullet one kaffir.........BWHAHAHAHHAHAHA­HAHa

[biblefarce]

@1Remnant  NOt all...but that nigerian aliko is indeed a theif.

[cynd675]

Wow I was thinking the samething about you.lol

[cynd675]

Awwwwwwwwww Your jokes are just like your life..........A FLOP(LMAO)

[noticityrealicity]

@cynd675 You're a typical black. Thank you for proving my point. lol

[suirvale]

i wonder how much does mugabe own,.

[MSAKIBOY1]

after all the slavery,racism and segregation we have billionaires in africa....now thtas going H.A.M

[cynd675]

@MSAKIBOY1 NAW...GOING HAM IS WHEN THEY *STOP* THEM PIGS FROM COMING THERE AND POSIONING THE LAND AND THE PEOPLE.

[GlobalChangeAgent]

This is actually a sad commentary when you look at the corrupt and oppressive conditions throughout most of the continent. Who really gives a shit.....unless they can demonstrate how they give back toward creative changes to the poverty, sickness, and dire straits of so many of the masses.

[RobertsDigital]

This video is old.....The Richest man in Not only in Africa but the whole world is Dangote

[xxcanyalovemexx]

number 10 through 5 sounds about right with the exception of dangote, he is worth over 13 billion the rest of the guys in the group are grossly over inflated.

[SpectacularFrontiers]

@jxsilicon9 The federal reserve bank prints money that is not backed by anything. There is no gold or silver backing each dollar, only goodwill. In times past the dollar could be exchanged for silver or gold. That is why it is called a federal reserve note. Watch some videos here on youtube and you will see the evidence.

[eugeneuler]

ALI-BEN BONGO ONDIMBA???Africans need entrepreneurs who will inspire young people to pursue their dreams, not people who have made billions from Stealing and selling their country!!! Take this guy off the list!!

[Frappant]

Pathetic! Desperately trying to keep up with the west and their ideals. Idealizing extreme wealth. Ignoring poverty. In the meantime the whole continent is beign raped by everyone. And what's the deal with the crappy emo shit song?! For Christ's sake. Get a life.

[soojenite]

this list lack not less than 8 names. number 1. MOHAMMAD AL HAMUDI,( ethiopia) KABUGA FELICIEN(RWANDA) RUJUGIRO TRIBERT(RWANDA) SIWIRIS FAMILY(EGYPT) FEMI OTEDOLA (NIGERIA) PATRICE MOTSEPE(SOUTH AFRICA)

[laliquc1]

u stupid and lair because the number one is sheik alamudi from ETHIOPIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[manley250]

Nigerian Thiefs! Thiefs!! Thiefs!!!

[niangadousama]

The problem with most of african billionaires is that they haven't become billionaires the legal way and that's one of the reason why they don't want to be known and magazine such as Forbes doesn't talk about them...I'm from Gabon and in my country everybody knows how the Bongo family has become richest...by the way excuse the few mistakes i can make (i don't speak english fluently)

[dabcore]

@niangadousama There really is no difference between the the African billionaire entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs in other third world(first world too if you really look at it). You always have to court those in political power to gain favor. Africans are not singular in this regard. Damn near all the ultra rich in Russia bought state assets for literally pennies on the dollar. They were able to do this through bribes and political contributions to those in power. What about the majority of

[dabcore]

@niangadousama of the non royal billionaires in the Gulf region of Arabia. They achieved there stupendous wealth by courting the Al Saud ruling family. It is the same in Asia and South America. Even in the United States this also applies, but this is to a much lesser agree unless you are the ultra rich old families. Donald Trump and Bill Gates are not of this class. For goodness sakes the federal reserve bank is not even a real FEDERAL GOVERNMENT INSTITUTION, it is a private bank that issues

[dabcore]

@niangadousama fiat money backed by nothing to pay off foreign and domestic debts. It is owned by the worlds richest old families like the Rothschilds and the Morgans. I would however agree with you if you are referring to politicians who are billionaires. There are few other regions in which politicians are actual billionaires

[jxsilicon9]

@dabcore

No its not. Fiat money is controlled by federal reserves,sovereign wealth funds,etc.

[vitaminecoluche]

Very good video.

I think that those billionnaires have to make themselves known to help the continent and to show to the rest of the world that we have also our billionnaires.

[vitaminecoluche]

Very good video.

I think that those billionnaires have to make themselves known to help the continent and to show to the rest of the world that we have also our billionnaires.

[vesorah]

there are many people who arent covered by Forbes, not every billionaire wants to be known as such, same way many multi millionaires arent all known, like everything else in life, not everyone likes the spotlight.

V

[modernhumble]

these numbers arent right i am from nigeria and there are only 2 nigerian billionaires and all the other figures arent right if they were we would have heard of them in forbes margazine or in a business magazine
