4. Isoko


Isoko tribe starts our list of the richest tribe in Nigeria 2018. These people are located in Delta State. Most of the time, these people are classified together with Urobo tribe. Still, you shouldn’t be mistaken as these two tribes are different. They speak don’t speak the same language. Still, there are similarities.

Isoko is provided to be a rich tribe that concentrates whole efforts on themselves. Therefore, they may lack the ability to help each other. This tribe is well known for their fishing habits. They are also great farmers. They sell a large quantity of carniel oil, palm oil, and plantain.


The only thing that stops Isoko from being in the first ranks of the richest tribes of Nigeria is their undesired to help each other. The reason for doing that is their proud. They are too proud to receive help and too proud to provide help. It deprives rich Isoko of helping to their youth. Both groups might be pretty arrogant and rebellious against one another.

A rich Isoko man may not desire to share his knowledge with young people. Another great disadvantage for them is that they do not like politics. Therefore, they prefer to keep out from power, but it can be their greatest mistake. Power equals money, and money equals power. Still, you may find a lot of Isoko people in Nigeria do their business. Famous Isoko people:

Solid Star (musician)
Stereoman (musician)
Ogheneserome (IT Guru)
Orezi (Musician)

2. Hausa/Fulani

When it comes to the second richest tribe in Nigeria, then the Hausa take this place. It’s the second largest tribe in Nigeria, but it takes the first place by the standards of the political influence in the country. They are very rebellious and may have problems to find peace even amongst themselves.

Hausa people are very rebellious and prefer to follow the ideas warriors path. That may be the very reason why they are so different, and you can find them to be very poor and very rich. If they follow the business ideas, then they are mainly focused on cows, rice, tomatoes, carrots, goats, and rams.

Their agricultural production and desire to power may help them to be powerful political leaders. Nevertheless, at the same time, this political power destroys them within and do not facilitate their growth. The richest people of Hause include:

Alhaji Sayyu Datata
Aliko DangoteDangote

Yorubas and Igbos are far richer than Hausas.

That one man own everything for himself is not richness.

Isoko is not even among the top four richest tribe in delta state. In delta state the list are 1. Itsekiri , 2. Ignore 3. Urhobo .4 ijaw

Later we condemn the white race for racism, when we've ethic professions in being, communists, facists and racists at same time.

Why do we Yoruba muslims worship Hausas so much

All these threads that doesn't promote unity sef...
If I may ask,what do u intend to achieve by posting this? Or what exactly is the purpose of this thread?

what is your problem with Yoruba Muslim I'm not a Muslim or Christian stop this nonsense kid.

just keep quiet.....

today is sunday...

The list is in order.....i think

The truth is that there is reasonable level of wealth spread in Igbo tribe while in Hausa tribe wealth is centered on a few families. Yoruba and Hausa have the richest men. Igbo may be the richest tribe in terms of wealth spread .

If you're talking about collective wealth, while I don't know much about Isoko, the list is in order.

so you too know its a shit and you posted it shame

Go check states with highest poverty level. U will find out is Hausa... . dangote is the richest man in Africa doesnt mean Housa people are living above poverty level

Hausa Is the richest abeg the list na fake

Igbos no doubt are the richest in Nigeria. They have the largest concentration of people that live above poverty line as a result of their penchant for self reliance and competitiveness not only amongst themselves but in the environment where they find themselves.
Igbos love to migrate in search of greener pastures

An average Igbo is very ambitious and never cows at economic challenges.
They can adapt easily to economic swings of any given location. They have proactive business tendencies and inborn informal business forecast skills thus making them willing to delve into virtually every form of commercial activity.
You'd see them VIRTUALLY in control of most sector of commerce like:
Household Electronics
Mobile Phones, ICT equipment
Office and Hospital Equipment
Clothing and Apparels
Cosmetics products
Groceries
Automobiles and Spare Parts
Building Materials
Public Transportation
Household commodities
General import and Exports
Hospitality amongst others

You can still feel their commendable presence in other sectors that they are not in dominant control of like:
Manufacturing
Oil and Gas
Banking
Forex
Craftsmanship
Real estate
Food and Beverages
Hospital and Healthcare etc
There's no state or town in Nigeria that you can't find a market dominated by Igbos.

Igbos own at least 60percent of the hotels in Nigeria.

Apart from the indigenes of host states Igbos are the highest number of landlords and property owners in every state in Nigeria.

An average Igbo man is very afraid of poverty that's why some can even venture into narcotics trade just to escape poverty.
Apart from few Areas with heavy Federal Government presence like Abuja, Lagos, and Port Harcourt, Igbo states/regions are the most developed in Nigeria despite being war torn in the inglorious Nigerian civil war of 1967-1970

Call it chestbeating or anything but its a verifiable fact.

Gaskiya fa mutumina

The title of this thread should be "Tribes that have produced the richest people in Nigeria." Millionaires and billionaires are not a representation of a tribe. This thread is plain stupid. The average Nigerian is poor and tribe is irrelevant because the average Nigerian suffers from the system irregardless of tribe. Its quite amusing that some people are willing to live in perpetual darkness and delusion created by their own tribalism.

Your English teacher wouldn't be proud of you after reading this

oga I'm not Hausa though I wish I can speak the language too omo Yoruba ni mi

This is a very stupid thread based on figments of the poster's imagination.
