So, the Forbes billionaires list came out and boy did we struggle to find Econet’s founder Strive Masiyiwa. We knew he would appear on the list as he had in previous years. Turns out, the problem was that we were searching by country “Zimbabwe.” Surprisingly Strive Masiyiwa was on the list BUT not as a Zimbabwean.

Perhaps you’re now wondering what country Strive Masiyiwa was listed under. Forbes 2021 list blatantly stated that Strive Masiyiwa, the British, was on the 2035th rank. Yes, the British.

Checkout the listing below:

What could have prompted Forbes to feature him in that way? One of the reasons could be that the Zimbabwean billionaire is now based in London. While in London, Strive and his wife were even recognised by ex-Prime Minister, Theresa May, to receive the Points of Light award for their exceptional voluntary service providing education to underprivileged children in Zimbabwe. So long story short, the Masiyiwas are noteworthy citizens of the United Kingdom.

Since Forbes listed Strive Masiyiwa under United Kingdom, we can technically say that Zimbabwe had no one representing it in the Billionaires list in 2021. Even though the billions that landed Masiyiwa in the list were initially facilitated by his ventures here in Zimbabwe.

What are your thoughts?

The Forbes Billionaire 2021 list has unveiled that Zimbabwe’s Strive Masiyiwa is the 2035th richest man in the world. Strive Masiyiwa is the founder and chairman of Zimbabwe’s largest mobile operating networking system, Econet Wireless.

Strive Masiyiwa’s net worth currently sits at a staggering  US$1.5 billion. However, it wasn’t enough to place him in even the top 10 list for either the international list or the African richest people list . He scooped the 16th position in Africa’s Billionaires List 2021.

First in the Worlds richest list is Amazon’s CEO Jeff Bezos who’s net worth is US$177 billion. He has managed to maintain this position for a consecutive period of 4 years. Elon Musk, founder of Tesla, followed him at a net worth of US$151 billion. He shot up to this position after being 31st just last year. Musk also ousted Microsoft’s founder Bill Gates from his 2nd position last year. Bill Gates now sits at position number 4 on this list.

Representing Africa at position number 191 is Nigeria’s founder of Dangote Cement, Aliko Dangote. This position is a stoop from last year’s position 131, however, he has managed to maintain his standing as Africa’s richest man.Dangote’s net worth is stated to be US$11.5 billion.

Our neighbouring South Africa’s Nicky Oppenhemeir & family sat at position 308 with a net worth of US$8 billion.

Below is the section of the list of the Forbes Worlds richest people where Strive Masiyiwa appears:
