Delta State is the 3rd contributor annually to Nigeria’s Gross Domestic product (GDP), contributing over $16 Billion annually to the country. Delta State is rich in oil, agriculture, decorative stones and other natural resources. Delta state was run-down during times when former governor James Ibori swindles billions from the oil-rich state. The following 5 business men and politicians are the most notable wealth people that hail from Delta State of Nigeria:
- Jim Ovia – Founder of Zenith Bank of Nigeria
- Tony Elumelu – Chairman of United Bank for Africa
- James Ibori – One of Nigeria’s most corrupt former governors
- Michael Ibru – Late head of the Ibru dynasty and husban to Cecilia Ibru, Chief Executive Officer of defunct Oceanic Bank of Nigeria. His wealth lives on through his spouses, children and siblings.
- Ngozi Okonjo Iweala – Nigeria’s first female minister of finance and author of “Fighting Corruptiion Is Dangerous”.
