Sometimes, I read stories of men and women who have forged their own destinies through sheer will and hardwork and I am left inspired. Then there are times I read of men and women who have amassed hefty sums of money but through seedy and dubious means and I am left disgusted. Unfortunately, when we talk of wealthy Africans, we are discussing both groups.

But who am I to say where each man lies? All I can do is tell you which African presidents are super wealthy and perhaps it will interest you to seek out information as to how their wealth was amassed. Enjoy:

#7. Chad's General Idriss Deby Itno $50 Million (4,500,000,000 Kshs)

#6. Swaziland's King Mswati III $100 Million (9 billion Kenya shillings)

#5. Camerron's Paul Biya $200 Million (18 Billion Kshs)

At this point it is time to separate the posers from the real money men. And trust that this is exactly what I am about to do. If you have been looking out for Kenya's president then keep going through the gallery:
