Nigerian tech entrepreneur, Dozy Mmobuosi is close to acquiring Sheffield United, an English Club for around 90 million pounds amid a transfer embargo by the club.

Reports say Mmobuosi is allegedly in the final stages of finalising the deal. He is said to be waiting to pass EFL’s owners and directors’ test but beyond that, he is good to go.

Dozy Mmobuosi is a Nigerian entrepreneur with a projected net worth of $7 billion.

He is the owner of Tingo Mobile PLC and Tingo International Holdings, which accounts largely for his net worth.

He also runs the Dozy Mmobuosi Foundation with a mission to promote the progress of Africa and create an environment where Africans can thrive.

Tingo Mobile’s digital agri-marketplace platform, Nwassa, provides farmers in Nigeria and beyond with weather forecasts, in addition to information on markets and digital payment options via Tingo Pay. His first tech venture was ‘Flashmecash,’ Nigeria’s first SMS banking solution. He later sold it for a good profit.
