The business tycoon made this known on Saturday, November 12, 2016 at the KICC facilitated wealth creation platform which held in Lagos.
Alakija said: "I will make more money than King Solomon in the Bible. I am working towards that and with his grace, I will."
Alakija, who gave tips of making and sustaining wealth at the platform also revealed one of the things that has helped her grow in wealth has been the ability to be a go-getter.
"You can't afford to be laid back, I'm not saying you should be aggressive without a purpose but I'm saying there are ways to be aggressive positively and I can tell you that you have to make that move, put yourself forward and be ready to face all hurdles," Alakija said.
Alakija is currently the richest African woman and also the richest black woman in the world after unseating Oprah Winfrey.

I pray she has Solomon's wisdom too
ReplyDeleteWe are waiting!
DeleteDon't acquire only earthly things remember to acquire heavenly wealth.
Don't be like the rich man in the bible.
Oh wow, all the best to her.
DeleteYou are very correct,more wisdom to help people not boosting to be like Solomon,who has more access to God.she should think like bill gates,who intends to dash all his money to the less privileged.
DeleteKing Solomon didn't have a plan to be that wealthy. It was God who blessed him, even when he didn't ask.
DeleteSolomon after the acqustion says all is vanity and vexation of spirit, but the conclusion is to fear God and keep his commandments.

ReplyDeleteOk.She should also remember to help her tribe people that r not sure of d next meal
Why can't her tribe people learn to "catch fish" and stop waiting for "fish handout"
DeleteOri e pe anon 09:24. Was it herr tribe that sent her to school? Mumu talk. You want to teach her what to do with her money
DeleteBecause they need 'fish handout' to 'catch fish'....
DeleteThat's good, also be as wise as king Solomon! Have a blessed and stress free week everyone!
ReplyDeleteIssorait. It's good to set goals for yourself.
ReplyDeleteBut the ultimate is to be right with your creator... Guess you know the rest.
#Motivated
And to say she never went to school to get to this point in her life is so inspiring
ReplyDeleteYou don't have to go to school to be great in life

DeleteShe get Igbo blood running through her veins. That's why she's a hustler lol
DeleteWhich Igbo blood? Which hustler? She got an oil bloc because of her closeness to IBB's family. We will soon take our oil blocs from the Hausa /Fulani and their Yoruba slaves.
DeleteThank you joor!!!anon@12:33
DeleteWith Niger Delta oil while d people that own d land continue to languish in abject poverty.
ReplyDeleteBut, is she as wise as king Solomon?? Just asking.
ReplyDeleteWhatever she want, if she believes, she can actually have it.
Wow I like her spirit. You go girl!
ReplyDeleteGood role model
ReplyDeleteWhat else do you ACTUALLY know about her other than what you just read on here?
DeleteAlright
ReplyDeleteOk queen wealth..we've heard.
ReplyDeleteThis woman and Bola shagaya r two women I will never ever emulate.I'll rather be piss poor
DeleteShe wan challenge God's word? Her doom awaits her then. God is no respecter of any man. He already said no one before or after will be richer than Solomon.
ReplyDeleteThat's in the bible?Wow!
DeleteI really need to start reading the bible
good for her. Behind successful eoman is good, responsible, and supportive husband.
ReplyDelete*woman
DeleteWow!
ReplyDeleteAwesome.
The thing with money is....its never enough.No matter how much you make,you always always want more.
What's the definition of greed again?
"Again I say to you,it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of the needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God" (somewhere in the bible)
Lol....
Madam,you are truly an inspiration.Surpassed even Oprah.That's awesome.
I tell you!
DeleteSurpassed Oprah? That's a mean feat!
Hello My Temptress!
Tell me more about Temptations. Please.
Hahaha.....
DeleteOmg!you are bad.
I'm fighting hard,very hard to remember the reasons why I should even resist all mine.This fight to remember is tough....
Lol
And when she dies... She dies with the money Abi????
ReplyDeleteGood aim and her wish her well but i don't think even Bill gates will be richer than King Solomon.
ReplyDeleteGod rewarded Solomon for being a good King that asked for the unexpected that so pleased Him and that is his reward (The richest man).
This is stupidity
ReplyDeleteHow is it stupidity?
DeleteAbsolutely no possibility
DeleteIt's stupidity to say she will be richer than Solomon! Solomon is an inspirational model about strange acts of God.money can not be attributed to wisdom.
DeleteOccultic churches everywhere
DeleteMummy,that is not possible,but I love your spirit.
ReplyDeleteCan you do what King Solomon did? Just be saying things you cannot lift your hands to do. anyway goodluck on your try
ReplyDeleteI wish her goodluck
ReplyDeleteWoow! More grease ma
ReplyDeleteDear BV, my hu
ReplyDeleteDear BV, my husband surprised me. My father was sick and my husband refused me going to take care of my sick father, fine my mother is there with him. But my mum is barely managing her health. I have to disobey him because I am not a bastard, I can change a husband anyday and anytime, but I can never change my parent.
ReplyDeleteU can change husband and u are not a bastard! Gal grow up,your mom will not want u to disobey ur hussy!two shall be one,maybe u were not nice asking him to go see ur dad!Am sure that's why he said no! Pls keep d hussy u have if u think! Dem plenty out dere thing twice,before u come become sisi caro!
Delete@ olu ogunyinka. Are you saying I should not take care of my parent when they need me simply because I am married? Then in my old age I will expent my children to take care me. God forbid I cause my future because I want to please a man.
DeleteNice asking him, are you serious? Mumunyinka!!! My dear fast recovery to your daddy.
Delete@ anon 18:33 thanks for your understanding.
DeleteI love this woman so much. she is hosting a program on marriage this month in lagos and I pray I make it. I know it will be power packed.
ReplyDeleteLead folks to Christ woman.
ReplyDeleteNo wonder Obj said he made her Billionnaire but I disagree, all good gifts comes from God.
OMO!!! I DON SEE NEW ROLE MODEL
ReplyDeleteOMO!!! I DON SEE NEW ROLE MODEL
ReplyDeleteBy who's grace? The same supreme being that sanctioned Solomon the wealthiest man during and after him time? Would now change His pronouncement because it is Alakija? Abeg rephrase your statement madame before collects what has given you. Have you done a third of what Solomon did to warrant such blessing from God? Gaan sit down.
ReplyDeleteWisdom is the principal thing.
ReplyDeleteI like that she isn't limiting herself.
ReplyDeleteHer story is inspirational in more ways than one, and shows that God can give anybody anything, irrespective of your background.
I am glad for her.
But she should also remember that King Solomon at the end of the day said In Eccleciastes that " vanity upon vanity, all is vanity.".
Ile Aiye, Ilie asan.
Not one Naira will she take to heaven, and all that money cannot buy her entry into heaven.
She should impact as much lives as she can here on earth, and focus on the kingdom of God.
Ten helpful tips while you wait for that dream job
She can be stingy for the whole of Africa! Stingy woman mchewwwwww!u go about advising people on how to be great with their saliva abi? Pls help them with start up capital or better shuuuuuu! Don't advise a hungry man to pray give him food!
ReplyDeleteStrong woman , she no dey ever dissapoint.
ReplyDeleteMaureen u must be very easy to please
DeleteWhen you single-handedly own an oil bloc what do you expect?
ReplyDeleteSMH! Madam, is that is the reason you are making money, then you have misplaced your priority and you will only find disappointment at the end. King Solomon at the end of his left us with the famous quote: Vanity upon vanity... all is vanity. You can never be rich like Solomon because Solomon was not just rich materially but spiritually and in wisdom. Lastly, why don't you take a cue from the likes of Bill Gates who are giving out their wealth instead trying to beat King Solomon. Even Jesus (The Seat and Source of All Wisdom) said that grass and flowers of the field are beautifully clothed more than Solomon.
