Top 10 Richest Kids In Nigeria 2019

This list features the top ten richest kids in Nigeria as of today. Some of this kid were born into wealthy homes while others have earned their families substantial wealth through their talent. Some of them feature here basically as a result of the wealthy status of their parents.
