Osborn Nweze Umahi, the chairman of Osborn La-Palm Resort Group and managing director of Brass Oil and Construction Limited, is a young Nigerian executive with a net worth of over $200 million. It is rare to find someone under the age of 30 with such an achievement in Nigeria.
Osborn Nweze took over the management of Brass Oil and Construction Limited at the age of 22, allowing his father, David Umahi, former governor of Ebonyi State and present Minister of Works, to focus on his political duties.
Under Osborn’s leadership, the company has continued to grow in the downstream sector of the Nigerian petroleum industry, while Brass Construction, the other arm of the company, has maintained its dominance in its niche in the Southeast and South-South regions.
Osborn Nweze is also the financial director of Forte GCC Innovative Solutions, a company that manages the financial assets of many wealthy individuals in Africa. As the financial director, he oversees a large portfolio of investments that range from real estate to bonds, stocks and oil and gas, among others.
Osborn Nweze is a proven CEO and one of the biggest real estate investors in Nigeria. He is not just walking in his father’s shadow, but is building his own business empire. His impressive strides make him a credible candidate for the Forbes lists.
