Aliko Dangote's wealth surged mainly due to Dangote Cement PLC's stock performance. Mike Adenuga experienced a decline in equity value, primarily influenced by Conoil PLC's weak performance.
Femi Otedola also saw gains and losses in his net worth. The market rally was driven by gains in various sectors, with BUA Food PLC leading in market capitalization.
