Barely few hours ago, a report circulate viral online that business mogul and Founder and CEO of Dangote Group, Alhaji Aliko Dangote is dead.
The report circulated indicate that Africa’s and Nigeria’s richest person Aliko Dangote died in a German hospital.
The official Dangote Group companies debunk the rumours through their official twitter account, while also the business mogul Dangote himself also debunked the rumours through his own personal account.
However, Veteran journalist and founder of Ovation Magazine, Dele Momodu also denies the death report rumours of Dangote and further says that he’s currently with him in South Africa, he further post a video of them together, while the CEO laughed heartily at the rumours.
But why will anyone start such, does that give money? Lol, SMH!
The purported evil and malicious rumour about Aliko Dangote’s death is outright falsehood. He is hale and hearty. Thank you.
