Omiete Inko-Tariah: From Ex-Banker to Wealth Coach Powerhouse

REAL ESTATE1 month ago

A former banker turned investment coach, Omiete Inko-Tariah has built a reputation for teaching practical, long-term wealth skills to everyday people. He leads the Net Worth Investors Club and founded Scepter Business Club, two platforms focused on financial literacy and community-driven investing. On social media, he simply calls himself an ex-banker, investment and financial coach, speaker and a man on a mission to “help you build enduring wealth.

The Early Chapters: Banking Desk to Billion-Dollar Project Sites

Omiete’s professional story begins in Nigeria’s banking halls, where he started his career at First Bank of Nigeria. Soon after, he took an unusual turn into heavy industry, joining Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC) as a resident quantity surveyor. There, he worked on the Okoloma Gas and Power Plant construction, a project ThisDay reports at around $1.3 billion in scope and one he helped steer to completion and commissioning. It was a defining period that built his execution muscles and appetite for bigger challenges.

Those years were not glamour; they were grit: learning to manage budgets, handle pressure, and deliver results in mission-critical environments. That grounding would become the base for his later shift from corporate life to entrepreneurship a leap that demanded both courage and a long-term view.

The Leap Into Business And the First Wins

After more than a decade across banking and energy, he moved fully into private enterprise. He co-founded Pearl HPW Limited, a construction and marine-services company, and served as its pioneer managing director, building it into a business with international reach, according to ThisDay’s profile. Corporate registry trackers also list him as a director linked to Pearl HPW Group Limited.

Pearl HPW’s own pages describe operations spanning oil and gas, logistics, project management, marine and power the kind of hands-on industries where execution, compliance and steady cash flow matter more than hype. This is also where he sharpened the operations and deal-making mindset he applies today when mentoring entrepreneurs and retail investors.

Building Platforms: Scepter Business Club and Net Worth Investors Club

Impact scales through community. Recognizing that, he launched two platforms Scepter Business Club and Net Worth Investors Club designed to help hardworking professionals become confident, long-term investors. Company listings place Scepter Business Club in Port Harcourt, and ThisDay spotlights both initiatives as vehicles for practical financial education and generational wealth.

His tone online is steady and simple: focus on learning, buy quality, be patient, and let compounding do the heavy lifting. In multiple posts and reels, he celebrates member progress and reminds followers to “find a way to make your money work for you,” an idea he repeats often in interviews and short clips.

Current Happenings: What He’s Doing Right Now

He keeps his community warm with regular updates and market notes. Recent highlights include:

Live media and education: Going on live TV soon, he teased in a post two weeks ago a nod to his frequent appearances to discuss market literacy and the case for long-term investing.
Focus on diaspora investors: In a fresh clip, he addresses Nigerians abroad on how they can systematically invest from overseas a timely topic as remittance earners look to the NGX and U.S. markets for diversification.
Tracking Nigerian sectors: He’s spotlighted opportunities in insurance and other reform-linked sectors, using timely headlines to teach how macro changes can move share prices.
Community wins: He shares member testimonials portfolios bouncing back after disciplined re-entry, or steady gains from research-backed picks to reinforce habits over hype.

The Coaching Lens: Simple Rules, Real-World Habits

Scroll his website and you’ll see the same through-line: simple, repeatable frameworks. He offers one-on-one coaching, corporate trainings, and online courses on the Nigerian and U.S. stock markets, bonds and T-bills, all pitched in straightforward language. The site also features success stories and emphasizes “results-oriented coaching” grounded in more than two decades of market experience.

His X (Twitter) bio places him in Port Harcourt a reminder that thriving investment communities are increasingly springing up far from traditional financial capitals and his feeds function like an always-on classroom where followers can ask questions and learn from current events.

Lifestyle, But With a Purpose

Lifestyle for him is not about excess; it is about access to information, to discipline, to better decisions. His daily rhythm, from posts to Q&As, shows a teacher’s cadence: explain, reinforce, celebrate, repeat. When the community marks moments (a Valentine’s Day post reframed the day as a celebration of collective wins), the message is consistent: build together, stay the course.

Even the visual style crisp suits, clean studio shots, charts on a screen communicates the brand: serious about money, friendly about learning. The aesthetic signals professionalism without intimidation, inviting first-time investors to step in and ask the “simple” questions many are afraid to ask.

The Struggle Behind the Scenes

Every pivot carries pain. Moving from stable salaries to entrepreneurship demands new muscles: cash flow management, team building, compliance, client trust and patience. In interviews, he frames setbacks as tuition: don’t copy trades you don’t understand; don’t let short-term noise knock you out of long-term compounding; don’t chase hot tips. His content revisits these themes, especially for salaried professionals who are just starting to invest and worry that salaries don’t create wealth on their own. The counsel: keep your income, but make it work consistently, sensibly, and with a plan.

There’s also a practical honesty to the way he addresses platform members who exited the market during tough times and then returned with better systems. Shared testimonials on his site echo the same arc: education → discipline → results gradually, then suddenly.

Achievements That Stand Out

Corporate and project pedigree: Banking at First Bank, energy projects with SPDC, and leadership on the Okoloma Gas and Power Plant construction experience that blends finance, engineering discipline, and execution at scale.
Entrepreneurship in real sectors: Co-founding and leading Pearl HPW, with operations across oil & gas logistics, construction, marine and power sectors where systems, safety and compliance are vital.
Community platforms for investors: Founder of Scepter Business Club and Net Worth Investors Club communities teaching financial literacy and long-term wealth building.
Advisory and consulting: President & Chief Consultant at Trinity Transnational Consulting, applying cross-industry experience to help firms and individuals execute better.
Consistent public education: A steady stream of explainers, market commentary, and media appearances that reach people where they are Instagram, X, TikTok, and YouTube.

What His Students Hear And Use

If you strip the jargon out of investing, a handful of habits carry most of the weight. His teaching keeps circling those:

Make money work, not just sit. “Find a way to make your money work for you” his most-repeated line is really a call to automate investing, not emotions.
Learn before you leap. Not understanding an investment doesn’t make it bad; it makes it unknown and the fix is study, not slander. He pushes research over rumors.
Think in years, not days. From sector reforms to earnings cycles, the big moves take time. The community is coached to look past the next headline and into the next few years.
Celebrate small wins. Progress compounds. A raise invested is more powerful than a bonus spent. Community milestones keep members motivated and accountable.

The Human Side: Why His Story Resonates

People follow people who’ve walked both roads salary and startup, spreadsheets and steel-toed sites. His cross-sector background gives him credibility with civil engineers, oil-and-gas workers, bank staff, SME owners, and diaspora professionals alike. He talks like a coach, not a guru; he shares what to avoid as boldly as what to buy; and he stands up for the idea that wealth is a skill, not a secret.

It also helps that his channels feel like a two-way street. Diaspora Nigerians ask how to invest back home; beginners ask about treasury bills and ETFs; advanced members discuss portfolio balance between the NGX and U.S. markets. He answers live, posts quick reels, and returns to the same pillars: patience, process, protection.

What’s Next

Expect more media touchpoints, more case studies from club members, and more sector explainers tied to policy changes. His work right now from reels about insurance reforms to step-by-step guides on building positions shows a builder’s bias for clarity over complexity. For anyone who wants to start, or restart, the invitation is simple: show up, learn, and let time do its work.

Final Thoughts

His journey is proof that financial success is not about shortcuts or luck it’s about discipline, education, and long-term vision. From his early days in banking and oil & gas projects to building businesses and now coaching thousands of investors, he has lived the lessons he teaches.

What makes his story resonate is its balance of struggle and strategy. He took risks, faced the uncertainty of entrepreneurship, and still managed to turn those experiences into platforms that now empower others. Through the Net Worth Investors Club and Scepter Business Club, he is giving ordinary people the tools to make extraordinary financial decisions.
