Chairman of Dangote Group and Africa’s wealthiest man, Mr. Aliko Dangote, revealed that the house he stays in while in Nigeria’s capital city is not his own property.
Speaking during a media briefing at the Dangote Petroleum Refinery in Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos State, on Sunday, Dangote explained that his dedication to an industrialized Nigeria is why he does not own houses outside the country.
He revealed that he once had a house in London, disclosing that he sold it in 1996.
“The reason I don’t have a London or America house is solely because I wanted to focus on industrialization in Nigeria.
“I figured that if I had those houses, there will be one reason or the other for me to visit those places thereby causing distraction for me.
“I am very passionate about the Nigeria dream and apart from my Lagos house, I have another one in my home state Kano and a rented one in Abuja,” he revealed.
