Awal Muhammed Mustapha, the son of controversial Nigerian billionaire, Ismail Mustapha, popularly known as Mompha, was recently featured in an international publication, The Sun.
The publication described the 9-year-old as the “world’s youngest billionaire,” who owned his first mansion at the age of 6 and “travels the globe by private jet.”
This comes amid his father’s case with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over alleged money laundering.

Regardless of Mompha’s ongoing court case, his son has achieved a new feat as he gets featured in the UK’s The Sun.
