Aliko Dangote Named 64th Richest Man Worldwide

President of Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote, has significantly moved up in the World billionaires’ list as he emerged 64th richest person in the world, with an estimated $16.6billion, as against his previous ranking of 103rd in the world.








Dangote, who remains the richest man in Africa for the 8th year running, was the only Nigerian on the list of the top 500 billionaires, as released last week by Bloomberg in its yearly billionaires list.


Jeff Bezos remains the richest man in the world with $136 billion in his kitty while Bill Gates and Warren Buffett followed as 2nd and 3rd respectively with $98.4 billion and $83 billion on the world billionaires’ chart, which is dominated by North Americans.


Dangote’s estimated worth in the latest Bloomberg ranking far outstrips an earlier ranking by the Forbes Magazine, another elite publication which placed his fortune at $10.8bn in the 2019 Forbes Africa’s Billionaires’ list released in January, although he retained the rank as the richest African for the 8th consecutive year in the latter ranking.


There are only five Africans on the Bloomberg list of the world’s top 500 billionaires, with Dangote topping the group. The other four Africans include Nicky Oppenheimer of South Africa, who was ranked No. 216 with an estimated worth of $7.05 billion; Johann Rupert of South Africa (ranked No. 225 with an estimated worth of $6.92bn); and Natie Kash of South Africa (ranked No. 263 with an estimated worth of $6.10bn).

The fifth and last African on the list of 500 HNW individuals was Naguib Sawiris of Egypt, ranked No. 331 with an estimated fortune of $5.12bn.

    2. Who get shame? You or him? What is your net worth? Unending Lies and false claims on this blog? When his net worth dropped the year before, you all accused Buhari for poor economy. Now the successful increase and ranking, you throw your ill-composed barking song. Abeg Park one side. Go remain as the “most poorest” and “most under penury” boy in the world. Go increase your wealth in English first before net worth. Shameless thing.
