What happened
Critical Minerals Financing Corporation Plc emerged as the best-performing stock on the Nigerian Exchange in September 2026, recording a 55.96 per cent average capital gain. This performance followed Banklink Africa Private Equity’s acquisition of a majority stake in Deap Capital Management & Trust Plc, which led to CMFC’s formation. The company’s President and Co-CEO, Dr Israel Ovirih, was also recognized as one of Nigeria’s top 25 chief executives.
