Aliko Dangote's Net Worth Hits $30 Billion, Breaks African Wealth Record

Nigerian industrialist Aliko Dangote's net worth has hit $30 billion, making him the richest person in Africa. The increase in his wealth is attributed to the impressive performance of his companies, including Dangote Sugar, NASCON, and Dangote Cement on the Nigerian Stock Exchange.

Dangote plans to list his multi-billion-dollar refinery on the NGX within the next year. Despite a recent decline, Dangote remains one of the wealthiest individuals globally.

Abdulsamad Rabiu has surpassed Mike Adenuga to become Nigeria's second richest man.
