We all know Aliko Dangote, of the Dangote Group of Companies, as an insightful business mogul, whom until the beginning of the new decade, due to the widespread of Coronavirus pandemic, which woefully affected Africa economy, especially the Nigeria economic system, was among the first 100 richest men in the world according to Forbes listing, but went down the listing by a unit to stand at 101.
Apart from his business empire, the richest man in Africa is technically a serial polygamist, who took marital vows at two instances with different women, but after officially untying the marital vow legally.
