Super-rich single Nigerian ladies

Who could have thought these women would remain single this long? They are rich, powerful and a good number of them are drop-dead gorgeous. Those that are not super-rich in their own rights have fathers who have tons of money to have any man come running after them.

Those among them who have tasted the juice of matrimony soon found its after-taste a bit bitter and have done away with it, preferring to remain single even after a child or two. But others seem to be too busy to have time for any form of romance that could lead to the altar or is it that no man good enough has come their way to propose? Whatever the case may be, they are yet to find their better-halves. Some are in their twenties, thirties and others are hitting on forties and beyond. Here are some of the daughters of the super-rich who are still single

Senator Gbemisola Saraki

Gbemisola Saraki

If her wishes have been well served by God, this ravishingly beautiful woman, who was a two-term senator at the National Assembly would have been the current governor of Kwara state. After her marriage to one Segun Fowora crashed some years ago, the super-politician has still remained single. The reasons are best known to her.

Though she is a mother of three, the Senator is a dead ringer to any beauty queen any day. She has everything a man could need in abundance. She was born into wealth and she has done so well for herself that her achievements could compete with that of any man.

It wasn’t an all-solemn affair as some of the late rapper’s friend including longtime pal Diddy and Jay Z and Will Smith took turns to share memories while others laughed.
‘We extend our heartfelt condolences at this difficult time. He will be remembered for his infectious optimism and many contributions to American music. Please know that you and your family will be in our thoughts and prayers’, read the note from the President Obama, according to the Rev. Al Sharpton, who quoted from it during the service.
Xea Myers, the 11-year-old daughter to the late rapper also spoke briefly as she told the congregation her dad was ‘still here, not in the flesh, but in the spirit’.
The service lasted for two and a half hours and the church was filled to capacity. Others who couldn’t make their way inside had to manage the front porch of the church which was immediately set up to accommodate them.
‘Silently he’s been influential in a lot of our careers. His love still lives on’, Usher said after the service
‘He became my friend. He became my brother, and I’m not talking about friend-brother like we cavalierly use the word, I’m talking about a real friend, a real brother. Somebody I shared my dreams and my secrets with, somebody that’s been there for me at my lowest point, my darkest hour when nobody wanted to be beside me’, Diddy said.
Heavy D who called himself the ‘Overweight Lover’ passed away in Los Angeles Tuesday, November 8, 2011 at the age of 44. His family said the death was due to complications from pneumonia.
