The Nigerian business mogul, before the latest revelation by Bloomberg had retained his position as Africa’s richest man with a $25 billion net worth.
Dangote has held the position for the fourth successive year and that globally, the influential Forbes Magazine rates him on the list of 25 richest people in the world.
Dangote is ranked 23 up 43rd among the 100 richest persons in the world, but with the crash in his wealth one wonders the level he will be ranking in the world..
