Nigeria’s
wealthiest monarch, the Olugbo of Ugbo Kingdom, HRM Obateru Akinruntan
has a deep pocket as well as an influence which transcends the shores of
Africa.
Forbes magazine recently listed him as one of the 5 wealthiest monarchs in Africa with an estimated networth of $300 million.
Aside
commanding immense wealth, the respected traditional ruler is a man of
class and style. He exhibits sheer sophistication as he stations luxury
cars in his magnificent palace.
His
status as a man of class became undisputable in 2012 when the 2014
edition of Bentley was made for Queen Elizabeth of England in the belief
that other people would wait till 2014 to ride it. But Oba Akinruntan
shocked all by buying the same version in 2012.
And just as he has dazzled all on land, he is also dazzling people on water.
Those
who should know say he controls some of the most expensive yachts. The
billionaire businessman owns the largest petroleum depot in Africa.
He is the founder of Obat Oil.
