EE29 has followed the foot step of former national team
captain Kanu Nwankwo in properties investment. He has properties worth N6billion
only in Nigeria. Like many major African footballers, particularly among
Nigerian footballers plying trade outside Nigeria, l Emenike has the power and
money to be able to live as large as possible either in Nigeria or outside; the
cash is always there to flow. His riding story is amazing when money is
involves. Obviously his move to UAE means he has been enjoying lots oil money
in the Arab country. Already on a whooping N930million (about 3.7million Euros)
for his season-long loan at Al Ain of Dubai.

The 28 years old striker started his career with blessings
of his parent particularly the late father who blessed Emenike before he flied
to South Africa at the beginning of his career. He started on a grassroot
level, he's the last born of the Emenike's family but today, he's living like
the first star in the sky. Soon after he joined Karabukspor, he bought four
detached duplex in Chevron worth N700m, currently on lease in Lekki!
Do you know that Emenike has about five properties in Lekki?
Our investigation revealed that Emenike is currently on another big duplex
worth N500m.
The former Fenerbahce of Turkey star recently revealed that
his father was his greatest adviser ever and he will miss him for that.
“I will miss my father for his advice. He was the one who
compelled me to play for Nigeria as he warned me not to honour invitation to
play for any country no matter what,” Emenike recalled.
“He told me I will be great, and after the AFCON 2013, he
asked me if I regretted playing for Nigeria, I just smiled and said ‘no’.”

Emenike continued: “He always showed me the right way, and I
have never regretted any of his advices. This is a man who has seen a brighter
future for me and he always told me, my life begins after football.
“My elder brothers and the people in the community convinced
him to let me choose football. He blessed my first trip to South Africa, and
today I am living in his blessings. But I am sad he’s gone!”
Emenike began a wealthy life immediately he moved to Spartak
Moscow where he signed a mega deal that sees him pocket close to €2m. For every
earnings of the Nigeria striker, he moved down to Nigeria to invest
tremendously on properties, Emenike has over five luxurious houses in Lekki
Chevron where he also has a street named after him. Emenike is indeed a bigboy
in Chevron!
Shortly after he joined Fenerbahce, Emenike built a
mouthwatering duplex worth N250m, with imported materials for the building of
the house. The house which have over six bedrooms, Gym house, Swimming pool to
mention few was rated as one of the best in Chevron.
According to report gathered from source, who also release
the shot of Emenike's house in UK further revealed that Emenike's house in
United Kingdom worth €3m. And that is where the powerful striker visit for
holidays after visiting his family in Nigeria. It was reported that Emenike
bought house in Essex because of Totteham's move.

The good thing about him is that despite his low scoring
form on the pitch at a point, his worth increases, he smiles to the bank every
week, his investment in Nigeria alone is profiting even faster than his initial
plans.
His move to United Arab Emirates has really blossom his
wealth despite revealing he didn't move for money, but Emenike is currently
building eight terraces estate in Owerri worth N800m. The estate, which is
understandable to be for lease on its completion, the real plan of the estate
understand to be a format of an estate where Emenike bought his UK apartment, a
mighty estate indeed.
Unlike many footballers, Emenike adores buying and building
houses than spending so much on cars, yet, Emenike recently acquires Mercedes
bus worth 250,000 euros from Turkey. The Mercedes which has four seaters facing
each other, with two flat screen TV, CD deck, Refrigerator, Video game, multi
functional air-condition. It’s a bus with lots of entertainment.
Apart from the Mercedes bus, Emenike is known with his
Branded X6 BMW, Lambogini and 2010 Toyota Camry worth N20m with customized
plate number EE29.
Emenike's secret of wealth is down to charity, atleast, he
spends close to N5million on charity every year, his popularity did not stop on
the pitch, he's a big name when he get to the international airport where fans,
less privilege people block Emenike for help.

Eyewitnesses recently revealed an encounter with Emenike at
International airport where the 2013 top scorer helped a family with
undisclosed millions of money for treatment. Similarly, in 2014, he took a load of trailer
contains bags of rice to Imo and Anambra State for distribution. No wonder
Governor Okorocha pose in a photography with Emenike.
In his native home town in Imo State, Emenike built borehole
for the people of the community.
The 2013 AFCON topscorer is planning to extends his
properties to Dubai has plans to buy a mighty duplex worth N700m but the Super
Eagles striker still on consultation process from his family member.
In the national team, Emenike remained a good example of the
team when money is involve, Emenike once
showed the patriot in him when he declared that he was ready to play for
Nigeria for free, saying winning a shirt to play for the national team was a
greater motivation than monetary inducement.
On that very nite after Malawi game, a key player in the
Eagles had rejected the $5,000 bonus when the money was taken to him. He said
that “we will not collect $5,000. Our money should be $10,000.”
We gathered that tension was about to rise in the camp when
one of the coaches who was expected to swiftly intervene was said to have
begged officials to leave him out of the matter.
But nerves calmed when the paymaster of the team took money
to Emenike and asked him if it was true that the team had rejected the $5,000
bonus for each player. Emenike was said to have frowned at that and said that
they should quickly pay him whatever they had as bonus. He collected the money
and said that playing for the national team was a great honour which all
reasonable players must appreciate.

Next was Victor Moses who also said that they should quickly
pay him what they had. Other players followed. This shamed the player who had
first rejected the bonus. At this point, he also collected and the coach who
had earlier asked that he be left out called a top official of the federation
to announce that “the players have now agreed to take money.”
The player who first rejected the bonus was also at the
centre of the bonus row that brought Nigeria international shame in Namibia.
After the World Cup qualifier the Eagles rejected their bonus and said that
they would not play in the Confederation Cup in Brazil. The federation had
reverted to the $5,000 they paid to each player as winning bonus before the
2010 World Cup.
The increase was done by the Presidential Task Force for the
World Cup. The federation reverted to their original payment without formally
informing the players before the match in Kenya on June 5. The players,
therefore, rejected the bonus for their victory in Kenya and the draw in
Namibia. It took the intervention of President Goodluck Jonathan for the team
to agree to fly to Brazil. The Presidency paid the balance.
Emenike’s patriotic action on that Saturday night led to the
bandwagon effect that saved the federation another bonus row.

“Emenike saved us another bonus row. He is a great patriot.
After a key player rejected our bonus and said the whole team had decided not
to collect it, Emenike said that such will not happen with him and that playing
for Nigeria was an honour greater than money,” a top official of the federation
said yesterday even mentioning the name of the player who had plotted another
revolt.
“Emenike said that whatever we pay was a token to what the
players earn in Europe and that he was surprised bonus would be made an issue
by some people.
On different occasions, Emenike has moved around the local
area in Lagos to extends happiness to some families quietly in which many have
benefited from his wealth. Notably, Emenike sent out his close friends to the
likes of ghetto area like Ajegunle to visit the less privilege homes and ask
them what they want to rebuild their life.

The former Spartak Moscow striker had once said that his
father told him the secret of living happily and more wealth is by making
people happy and helping them.
His quotes then: “I’m not a philanthropist but my parent thoughts
me the secret of happiness. For everything I have today is by the grace of
God.”
