Dangote now worth N3tn after gaining N15.6bn in 24 hours

Nigerian billionaire, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, and 10 others made money while some of the world’s richest people lost a sum of $182bn (N35.85tn) over the past week. This was amid deepening global market rout. Dangote, posted a
$79.2m (N15.6bn) gain from Thursday to Friday, according to Bloomberg’s Billionaires Index.

He was one of 6 billionaires who saw their fortunes increase in 24 hours to Friday. The world’s 400 richest people lost $182bn last week from their collective fortunes as weak manufacturing data from China and a rout in commodities sent global markets plunging….. I said it. No wonder he was jst popping champagne anyhow at Quilox club on Friday….
