Moses B. Arthur Named Among World’s Top 50 Most Influential People of African Descent
Ghanaian real estate developer and public speaker Moses Brentu Arthur has been ranked 26th on the 2025 Global Top 50 Most Influential People of African Descent (MIPAD) list in the category of Philanthropy and Social Impact. This prestigious recognition celebrates individuals of African heritage worldwide who have made significant contributions to humanity.
MBA, Co-founder and CEO of Afrimart Atlantic Limited, received the honor as part of the United Nations’ Second International Decade for People of African Descent initiative. He expressed deep gratitude for the acknowledgment, emphasizing that consistent, purpose-driven work is the true focus. “When you commit to building, serving, and solving, recognition becomes a byproduct, not the goal,” he said. “This is only the beginning.”
Recently, Arthur hosted over 3,000 young people at the “Trailblazers Unite” summit held at the University of Professional Studies, Accra. He credited his success to divine guidance and the support of his team, mentors, partners, and friends. Encouraging young Africans, he urged, “Stay the course. Your impact matters. Your voice matters. Your work matters. The awards will follow – but the assignment must always come first.”
Through his ventures Afrimart Atlantic and Entrepreneurship Hub Africa, Arthur has empowered entrepreneurs and fostered a more inclusive economic ecosystem across the continent. Events like Trailblazers Unite have become key platforms for nurturing young African change-makers.
“Legacy is built in the unseen moments… Keep sowing. Keep building. Keep serving. The world will catch up to what God has already ordained,” Arthur remarked.
Jonathan Olufowobi, CEO of MIPAD, congratulated all honorees, reaffirming the organization’s mission to highlight Black excellence. “Our initiative serves to promote the narrative of Black success stories, shining a light on the remarkable endeavours and victories of African descendants,” he said.
All honorees are expected to participate in MIPAD’s Recognition Week 2025 in New York City.
