Business tycoon, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, has said he hopes to give out a chunk of his $9.2bn wealth like billionaire philanthropist, Bill Gates.
Dangote, who is Africa’s richest man, said this at the 2019 Goalkeepers’ event hosted by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in New York on Wednesday.
Dangote, who was a discussant alongside Gates, said he had been running the Dangote for over 25 years but he remained impressed by Gates’ philanthropy.
He said he found it amusing that a man who is from America could show so much love to Nigeria and invest in the lives of people he had no relation to.
