Globacom's Adenuga Closing In On Dangote as Africa's Richest Man

President of the Dangote Group Aliko Dangote has retained his position as Africa's richest man for the eighth consecutive time. However, Globacom Chairman Mike Adenuga is closing in on the gap as he is just U.S.$800 million away from Dangote, whose wealth dipped to U.S.$10 billion, from U.S.$12 billion last year. This makes Adenuga the second richest man in Africa.

Aliko Dangote est toujours l'homme le plus riche d'Afrique mais son patrimoine a diminué.
