Nigerian businessman and philanthropist Femi Otedola has decided to celebrate his 60th birthday in a fanciful and expensive way. Hence, he has spent about N1.4 billion to rent a yacht. His birthday is on November 4.
In a viral video, Otedola was spotted with his family and his son-in-law, Mr Eazi, greeting the crew members of a super luxury yacht popularly known as Christiana O, owned by Aristotle Onassis.
According to reports, the rented yacht would be sailing for three weeks with the billionaire alongside his family and friends.
The super yacht, which happens to be the biggest yacht in the world, belongs to one of Otedolaâs childhood friends, the late Greek shipping tycoon, Aristotle Onassis, who was once regarded as the richest man in the world.
Otedola is one of the richest men in Nigeria. His wealth comes from the importation of oil. He is also the founder of Zenon Petroleum and Gas Ltd and the owner of several other businesses in shipping, real estate, and finance.
According to an online report, as of January 2022, it costs âĴ620,000 (about N470 million) to charter the yacht for a week, including tax.
Christina O offers a luxury voyage. Its 38 crew members include two spa therapists. The ship has hosted great presidents and ministers, such as John Kennedy and Sir Winston Churchill, and celebrities like Marilyn Monroe and Frank Sinatra.
