It is true that there is no concrete data source from which reliable deductions can be made. It is also true that when saying who is richer, you could be asking any of three things;

Which population has the highest number of High Net Worth Individuals


When the wealth of the High Net Worth Individuals of the various zones are summed and compared, which has the highest figure.


Which of the populations has the highest standard of living for the average member of the demographic.


No. 1 and 2. goes to the North. Easily. This is due primarily to a colorful presence of Northern proponents in Nigeria’s military history. As a result, there are more oil-blocks allocated to northerners. There are also more Northerners holding politically sensitive offices. This gives them a vast access to free money unlike any other ethnic group. Not to say that there are not people from other zones that have oil-blocks or that everyone from the North is a rich oil-magnate or politician.

To answer #3: after studying the Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative (OPHI) 2017 briefing on Global Multidimensional Poverty Index, the richest would have to be the Yoruba as the Southwest had the most impressive report.

I appreciate that these results will be grossly underwhelming to some readers due to stark contrast to reality. Hey, it is what it is.

Any answer to this question will be mere speculation, except there is an authoritative dataset to draw from

This is a tricky one but the Igbos and Yorubas are loud compared to the Hausas so one might go for one of them because of what they see

* THE MYSTERIES OF THE SECRETARIAT* Have you ever wondered why the position of the secretary is the only office with an assistant? Have you ever wondered why it as though the *SECRETARY* works but has no laudable works to show for it? Do you still wonder the relevance of the *SECRETARY* to organization and association ? Have you ever wondered what will happen when *inexperience* meets the working of a system? Well ! I *think* , I *ponder* and I *wonder* too on the *mysteries of the secretariat* Clerical duties such as writing, minutes taking , effective documentation and accurate record keeping are no doubts duties and functions of the *SECRETARY* but the *mysteries* goes beyond that. The secretary is the *ADMINSTRATIVE IMAGE OF ANY ORGANISATION, INSTIUTION OR UNION* . Therefore, he is duty bound to represent them at all times. He holds the *formal* *content* of the union of which at his negligence the union **crashes* !!!. *He collates the opinion and ideas of the members f...
