Femi Otedola’s aggressive accumulation of shares in First HoldCo Plc has propelled him into the spotlight as Africa’s fastest-growing billionaire in 2026, with the parent company of FirstBank emerging as a major driver of his rising wealth.

Otedola has repeatedly increased his stake in First HoldCo this year. In July, a company linked to him acquired 706.13 million shares valued at about N77.6 billion, following an earlier N43.4 billion purchase in May.
The buying spree has coincided with a sharp rally in First HoldCo’s share price. By July 20, the stock had reached a record N105.50, lifting the value of Otedola’s holding above $700 million at the time.

The surge has made Otedola’s First HoldCo investment one of the most significant sources of wealth creation among African billionaires this year. His growing position also underscores his continued confidence in the financial group and its long-term prospects.
As First HoldCo’s shares continue to attract investor interest, Otedola’s sustained accumulation is keeping his investment strategy—and the potential implications for the bank—firmly in the market spotlight.
