If you are a billionaire who didn't steal or use arbitrage, you didn't steal through govt contracts but built your billion naira enterprise from scratch and you had the wisdom to incorporate it and set up an efficient management structure that can outlive you, then starting new business in other areas should not be hard for you. Dangote has learnt a lot from personal experience

This is good.

Diversification is key in the quest to becoming a billionaire.

The govt helped him build all this.

An Igbo man has the govt harassing him, yet the Lord prospers the igbos.

first of all have a very rich uncle like Dantata
Then have the FG support you

The rest they say is history

Imagine if all of us are given 18 million naira at the age of 18 years to start business .

By the time we reach 30 years
If you are not yet a billionare
Or have nothing to show

Them suppose lock you up for wasting that money.

Let see attacking & criticism, yet, they want jobs to be flourishing like America, but they will still be bitter wen one of their own establishing jobs.

Go and see a doctor.

The earlier the better.

Don't say we didn't tell you when they are bundling you inside Sienna.

These are cunning people who connived with government to loot us

He has actually succeeded in making an entrepreneurial name for himself. But be as it may, it is not a day joy

Please rest!!

Acknowledge his contributions to the country and leave it at that.

The power of vision. Start from where you are and be determined to try new things. Trust me, I am sure he had tried other business which had failed. I admire his determination and tenacity.

Someone already recommends psychiatrist's doctor, meanwhile, it's Hausa man that Tinubu carried to Brazil this week to help his aircraft empire.

he should be the one championing railway transport in this country but no his busy importing trucks that keeps crushing people limbs

All the people who said he was helped by the government are not serious. Was he the only man who got helped by the government? He used the assistance given to him very well and got to be the richest. Not every man who got assisted made it in life. To be rich you must always work hard. Whether papa get money or na government hold lantern for you.

Also today, it is still possible for just one digital app to be worth more than his 17 businesses and make you 10x richer than him. When i think about the possibility i am blown away

Regardless what anyone feels about Dangote, he is simply an entrepreneur who understands the Nigerian market.

They did not include Estate/Properties and facilities management.

Dangote has massive properties in Ikoyi and all over Nigeria

He's the only one their family now. Na only am get dantata as uncle.

Peter Obi too got Abacha support.

while he is a shrewd business man , most of his business models thrive on destroying competitors to maintain monopoly.

Oh yeah, like Oyenma, who's getting govt help every day while he's wanted by the FBI.
Just imagine if Dangote is currently wanted by the FBI, yet the govt decides to look the other way while promoting his business just like Buhari and Tinubu have been doing for Oyenma.

The biased, lazy Nigerian press and people like you will remind us on a daily basis that he's a wanted man.

But since Allen Oyenma is from your side, then it's perfectly ok. How do you sleep at night with all that hypocrisy in your guts?

Polysacks that born all other investment for him was mentioned as number 10 instead of number 1.

This man don try

Agreed, he enjoys government patronage, but he has surely proved himself in business

Hypocrisy is deep in their veins. They make up a story in their heads and run with it.
