Thank you for this Video, I feel we Africans don't know what wealth feels and looks like from our environment. What was liberating in the video was the mention of the different wealthy family members Dangote has. With a profile like that of Dangote, a lot of people in Africa can easily be overshadowed and we can find ourselves not being aware of wealth among our fellow Black People. Thank you for the video once more, I am thrilled to find out about other people as well.

This is a great video, ALux, It’s nice to learn about some of the great men of Africa. When trying to amass wealth in the means of becoming greater sometimes you may do unpopular things. However it’s not how you start sometimes, It’s about how you finish. To me it seems with his philanthropy work he should be able to erase some of the not so popular things that he might have done.

I am a Nigerian. Nothing unpopular about Dangote in His business. Is simply a western media hypocrisy to never want to see any African achieve feats. In a country endowed with crude oil, where every politician want to grab power to siphon state treasury, But for close to 40 years, Dangote has never ever gets close to crude oil business until 2017 when he came to save the country to refine its crude oil product against the practice of exporting crude oil to America for refining and importing the same refined product for domestic use. It is not good to them we are becoming industrialized.

Great review by the way there's wayy more than 2 billionaires in Nigeria trust me. There's like 5 or 6 documented but the others not so much lol

Nice one Alux

Good, glad to see you guys covering a Nigerian. As for the monopoly, I think it's unequivocal and unjust but we see similar situations in countries like Russia and China, so it's more about playing the game than behaving like a victim. Furthermore, you said Nigeria produced two billionaires but it's untrue there are three other billionaires recognised by Forbes; namely; Folorunsho Alakija (the richest black woman), femi otedola, and Sani Rabiu. Also, the Nigerian business environment is arranged like an oligarchy, but despite that there have been several successful people (especially from my tribe; the igbos) who come from impoverished backgrounds, but beat the odds and have become Titans of African Entrepreneurship. Therefore, it's more about diligence and ingenuity. Nigeria is a country more affiliated with innovation and ingenuity than other African countries, so i believe that someday Nigeria will the Wakanda of Africa.

I am happy Nigeria has a Aliko Dangote a billionaire business in the Forbes 400 list of world billionaires. I like the fact that Aliko Dangote invest in many different businesses. Dangote is very generous because he created a $1.3 billion charity foundation. many businessmen around the world pay for play, meaning they have to give the politician money in order to operate their businesses. I also like Aliko Dangote car collections and Bombardier jet.

Great. Many thanks Alux. Well, this video will require an update, including on the project of 12 billion dollars.

Thanks Alux.com for making this video about the Nigerian billionaire. Amazing facts about Aliko Dangote. As a Nigerian, I don't think it is right that he has a monopoly on several industries in Nigeria because it eliminates competition to improve quality and value in the market for the customer.

I watched the video and I also took time to read several comments made. I want to add that while monopoly is bad for the nation as it kills small businesses, many people have had some opportunity one time or the other and turned to criminals enriching themselves and their families. Dangote did the following: 1. Brought revenue worth billions of dollars 2. Created a place for Nigeria in the world business market 3. Created jobs for millions of people of which many are millionaires 3. Became a support also for the people of the country through philanthropist 4. Standing in gaps where the government of the country is not measuring up. I think we should give it up for him. All these didn't just come by mistake, he proved himself. Advise: work hard and prove yourself, there is room for more billionaires to emerge.

I greatly appreciate & Admire Aliko Dangote. He is very inspiring to me.
