Top 10 Richest Musicians In Nigeria And Their Net Worths (2018) by beejayvince(m): 7:08pm On Nov 03, 2018
Nigeria boasts of currently, and arguably all time, the best crop of musicians in Africa… dare I say the world too. Everyday, we hear and see them breaking records, touring and setting milestones in the music industry. This causes a soft or loud debate on who the richest musicians in the country are. If you have been in one of the debates before, gather your co-debaters around and read this. I have put together a list of the top 10 richest musicians in the country. Let's begin.

1. Davido
At the top of the pile is Davido. The self acclaimed (and indeed true) OBO is guessed to have a net worth of about 9 billion Naira - kill me now. Kindly note that the amount stated above is based on his music career alone, because you know I know we know that he is worth way more than that.



2. Wizkid
A close second is the Star Boy himself, Wizkid, also known as Ayodeji Balogun. StarBoy has amassed wealth from the numerous hits, performances, awards and views his music has gotten in the 9 odd years since he started. This puts him second with a net worth of 8 billion Naira.



3. Don Jazzy
By craft, he is a music producer. But after numerous features where he gave some of the best hooks you will ever hear (Endowed, Without my heart), it is safe to call him a musician. CEO of Mavin Records, Don baba J, known to a select few as Michael Collins Ajereh is 3rd on the list with a net worth of 7.5 billion Naira.



4. D’banj
Like his Jamaican friends call him, Skibanj comfortably occupies 4th place with a net worth of 6 billion Naira. This is a product of the success he got from his four studio albums, two compilation albums and an endless number of mega hit singles. Talking about his achievements and awards will require a whole new article.



5. Tuface Idibia (2Baba)
In my (not so) humble opinion, 2baba is Nigeria’s second greatest musician of all time - behind to only the legend, Fela. Just when you think he has gotten to his twilight, he comes with a new song, style, concept and he tops the charts for a period of time. With over 10 evergreen songs to his name, it is safe to call him a legend in the Nigerian music scene. Tuface Idibia is worth 5.9 billion Naira.



Others on the list include:

6. Peter Okoye

7. Paul Okoye

8. Timaya

9.Banky W

10. Olamide & Flavour

OP, you better get serious at getting a good and legal job if you think blogging is an easy and guess-to-post one.
How will you wakeup and decide to post net worths without parameters, if Buhari sees this post and decides to 'tax' them you'll explain.
