The billionaire
detains 30% of Nexttel’s (third mobile operator in the country) shares through
his company Bestinvet Cameroon (BestCam). However, Danpullo, who
according to his close acquaintances holds more assets in Nigeria than
Cameroon, is popular in Cameroon for his massive Ndawara Tea Plantations in the
North-West Region from where tea is exported by Ndawara Tea Estates.
Additionally,
his ranch in Ndawara counts thousands of cattle heads from which, the biggest
specimen was exposed at the Ebolowa Agro-pastoral Show. The animal amazed the
head of State President Paul Biya.

Apart
from all these achievements, Cameroon’s richest man, has numerous real-estate
assets in Nigeria, France, Switzerland and South Africa including two malls in
Cape Town and the Johannesburg’s Marble towers, 32 floors and 152 m tall, third
tallest in Nelson Mandela’s nation.
In 2009,
Baba Ahmadou Danpullo donated 100 million FCFA to the ruling party, the CPDM. He
then ventured into the Communication Sector creating the TV channel DBS (Dan
Broadcasting System).The Billionaire is also a minority shareholder in
state-owned companies such as Sodecoton, Airports of Cameroon (ADC) and took
over the Tea Industry from Cameroon Tea Estates (CTE), privatizing it.
Multiple
sources hold that he backed the Philippine firm ICTSI to acquire the Container
Terminal at the Kribi’s Deep Sea Port which was finally awarded to a
Franco-Chinese consortium led by the Bolloré group.
Baba Ahmadou Danpullo is of the Peul ethnic
group and is a Muslim. He grew up in a modest family and started his activities
as a Truck Driver and owner of a couple of shops. Having obtained an importation license for
rice and flour he obtained a huge bank
loan and immersed himself in the world of importation.
He has been described differently by different journalists
across the national territory. On jeuneafrique.com
on the 7th of August 2013 he was described as the discrete emperor
of Cameroonian Business. On June 28, 2016 he was again described by the same
medium as the friend of the government.
His discreteness was manifested in the
surprise of many Cameroonians when monthly Forbes Magazine in the November 2015
edition announced that he was the richest man in francophone
Africa. This revelation was completely contrary to the popular Cameroonian
imagination.
