He has developed a housing estate in Kigali, Rwanda, worth over 2 billion Naira.
Mr Eazi also holds shares in the South African basketball club, Cape Town Tigers, and is the CEO of BetPawa, which has a $6 million sponsorship deal with the Ghana Premier League.
He owns emPawa, Banku Music, Zagadat Capital, and co-founded PawaPay.
He is married to Temi Otedola, the second daughter of Nigerian billionaire businessman Femi Otedola, one of the wealthiest and most respected entrepreneurs in Africa.
Mr Eazi is truly a visionary.
