I live in a rented apartment in Abuja — Billionaire Aliko Dangote.
Africa’s richest man, Mr Aliko Dangote, has said the house he stays whenever he is in Nigeria’s capital city is not his personal property.
During a media parley at the Dangote Petroleum Refinery, Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos State, on Sunday, Dangote said his passion for an industrialized Nigeria is the sole reason he doesn’t have houses outside Nigeria.
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 would 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.
