Abeg pardon my ignorance...

Why is Elon Musk not regarded as the richest man in Africa even though he was born in South Africa?

His net worth is US$20.8B while that of Dangote is US$13.2B.

Elon Musk is presently a US citizen, hence cannot be classified as Africa's richest. He's even based in California presently since 2002

The one man, I will be willing to spend my fortune to listen to... That guy is a think tank. He is American but of South African descent
Y'all need to read Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future by Ashlee Vance. The future belongs to him

He is incredible.

He is the founder of PayPal too. Sold out to eBay.

Elon and Aliko should chill, I am almost ready to take over the title.

do you want to say Dangote doesn't have any other country's residence? Can't say though

He is still an African irrespective of his residence in the US.
