Africa This Week -Five Things To Note.

This is how BBC wraps up some important News from Africa this week.




1) South Africa has 30% of Africa's millionaires
According to a report by AfrAsia Bank and New World Wealth, Johannesburg in South Africa is home to 23,400 millionaires, making it the city with the most millionaires in Africa. Cape Town, Durban and Pretoria are also in the top 10.



2) Almost 1 in 5 of this season's Premier League goals have been scored by Africans
And the number of African players is increasing - while Crystal Palace has players from DR Congo, Senegal, Morocco, Ghana and Mali, Manchester United and Arsenal don't have a single player from the continent.



3) South African 1990s star Penny Penny is now a local councillor
A Los Angeles DJ has been trying to track down Penny Penny for six years. When he finally did, he was surprised to find out he had already moved on from music to politics.



4) Nigeria's leader Muhammadu Buhari has $150,000 (£100,000) in his personal bank account
The president declared his assets in a move to promote transparency. He will declare them again when he leaves office.



5) One South African province doesn't know if 36,000 people on its pay roll even exist
The director general of South Africa's North West province told the BBC's Newsday programme she isn't clear whether over half of the people on her payroll are real employees or who much they are getting paid. Now every employee has to turn up with ID to get the bottom of the problem.

  3. I guess Nigeria would probably have 60% millionaires in Africa and most of them being corrupt civil servants.
    So south Africa arent sure that "common" 36000 workers exist. Make dem come 9ja come see film trick. One ministry alone would have nearly a million ghost workers being paid monthly.

    2. Nigeria HASN'T got more millionaires than SA. Nigeria is a VERY IMPOVERISHED thirds world country. Don't be deceived by the very loud small percentage of people making noise everywhere.

      Look around you and see the number of everyday companies owned by South Africans.
