Africa’s richest man Dangote still owing Mikel Obi, late Keshi and Super Eagles $1m as wealth hits $23.9B

It has emerged that the richest African in the world, Aliko Dangote, has not fulfilled the promise to the victorious Super Eagles team led by Mikel Obi to the AFCON 2013.

For the 14th consecutive year, Aliko Dangote, Africa’s wealthiest man and the richest Black person in the world, has claimed the top spot on Forbes’ list of Africa’s billionaires. 

With a staggering net worth of $23.9 billion, Dangote’s fortune has soared to new heights, nearly doubling in the past year thanks to the launch of the Dangote Refinery—Africa’s largest oil and gas facility. 

Dangote, now ranked the 83rd-richest person globally, has seen his wealth balloon by $10.5 billion since last year, propelled by the refinery’s operational debut.
