Billionaire businessman King Ochacho has revealed how he made his first billion naira at the age of 21.
The businessman made the revelation during a livestream with Nigerian TikTok personality Peller, where he opened up about the beginnings of his business journey.
According to Ochacho, he started out in the charcoal export business, working as an agent for a company that supplied charcoal to Chinese buyers.
He explained that his earnings from the business eventually amounted to one billion naira in dividends during the period he worked with the company.
Ochacho’s revelation offers an insight into how his early involvement in charcoal export contributed to his financial success at a young age.
His words…
“I was doing a business called coal business (charcoal), so I got all these Chinese people, and I was an agent to a company to export the coal. So the dividends I got within a period of time for that were one billion”.
The real estate businessman said he left the business and ventured into politics before leaving to focus on serving God and his businesses. He explained that he left politics because he isn’t the type to have opponents.
He said his desire is good governance, and if anyone in power can give us that, he is good.
“Then later I joined politics, then again I left politics to serve God and do my business.
I am not the type of person who is against anybody. What I want is good governance, so if the person in power can give us everything, I am good. My prayer is to pray for the leader to succeed.
During the interview, he answered Peller’s question about whether he had met the President, saying he had met everybody. He declared Tinubu as the best politician, saying he made Buhari and others.
“I have seen everybody, and let me tell you something: forget about what is happening, and I’m not here to preach for Tinubu, but Tinubu is one of the best politicians I have seen in my lifetime. He is one of the greatest politicians of all time; forget about all that is happening.
He made Buhari President and other presidents.
