Sayyu Dantata, a wealthy entrepreneur and half-sibling to Nigerian billionaire Aliko Dangote, commands the predominant ownership stake in MRS Oil Nigeria.
Through his investment firm, MRS Africa Holdings, Dantata possesses a substantial 60 percent ownership in the company, equivalent to 205,730,806 ordinary shares. This considerable stake elevates his standing as one of the most affluent investors within the Nigerian Exchange (NGX).
Fueled by its remarkable financial achievements, MRS has experienced notable expansion in its overall assets. These assets surged from an initial N40.52 billion ($52.7 million) at the commencement of the year to a substantial N51.35 billion ($66.78 million) as of June 30th.
