Africa’s richest man and foremost
business mogul, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, has
disclosed that despite his wealth, he has
no residential property outside Nigeria.
Dangote, whose 2015 net worth was put
at $21.6billion, according to Forbes, also
revealed how the late Chief M. K. O.
Abiola discouraged him from investing in
the media.
The business mogul stated this during an
interactive meeting with senior media
executives in Lagos at the weekend.
He said, “Somebody asked me, how many
houses do you have abroad? I said, well,
to tell you the good news, I don’t even
have a nine-inch block outside Nigeria,
and that is the truth; I don’t have a
house anywhere abroad.”
Dangote also recalled a meeting with the
late Abiola at his Ikeja, Lagos residence
where the latter told him about the
dangers of mixing media interests with
other business interests.
He said, “I went to see Abiola and I said
to him, you look a bit worried. And he
said he could not sleep because of a
publication…How many times will I be
chasing reporters and running my
business. Let me advise you, don’t go and
do this newspaper business.”
Abiola, before
his death in 1998, owned the Radio
Communications Nigeria and Concord
Press (publishers of the defunct Concord
Newspaper).
Dangote did not, however, foreclose future
investment in the media but said he was
being cautious in view of his other
business interests. “You must think twice
before going into it,” he said.
“When people realise that the paper is not
balanced – you are always pro-
government, it is a challenge. The worst
tag a paper can have is to be marked a
government paper. The general feeling is
that they are eating from the government.
So that is why I run away from the
media. I am not saying I won’t do it.” Source: http://www.gidimasters.com/2015/06/i-dont-have-house-outside-nigeria.html?m=1
