Well who is the richest black person, definitely not Oprah this time but Nigerian Billionaire Alhaji Aiko Dangote of Dangote holdings ranked at position 334 with net value of $3.3 Billion. Mr Dangote has interests in sugar, flour milling, textiles,real estate, haulage and gas among other things. Mr Dangote was followed closely by South African Gold Magnate and lawyer Mr Patrick Motsepe(from Soweto to fortunes!) at position 503 with an estimated value of $2.4 billion.

For football lovers the Chelsea tycoon owner Roman Abramovich ranks at position 15 it the world at an estimated value of $23.5 Billion. Definitely, Africa should not keep sleeping as the rest of the world soldiers forth. Corruption is our biggest challenge towards wealth creation and distribution. Make the paper, make the skrilla, make the dough!
