Nigerian billionaire businessman Aliko Dangote has stated that he was unaware that Nigerian singer, Oluwatosin Ajibade, better known as Mr Eazi, has eighteen businesses across Africa.
Naija News reports that Dangote made this known in his speech at the wedding of Temi Otedola and Mr Eazi.
In the viral video online, Dangote lauded the entrepreneurial spirit of Mr Eazi.
According to Dangote, the couple would in the future be called the richest people on earth.
He said, “I never knew that you have businesses in 18 countries in Africa. I must really congratulate you for being a great guy.
“Knowing that the two of you are always very charming, very entrepreneurial, I’m sure in the next few years we will take a back seat and call you the richest people on earth.”
He further said of Otedola, the chairman of Geregu Power and First Bank, “Femi is not only my friend, he is my brother. Where you see me, you see Femi. If there is any brother that I have that is not of the same mother and father, that brother is Femi.”
In other news, Dangote Industries Limited (DIL) has again cautioned truck operators against the unauthorised use of its logo, warning that the practice has caused reputational damage and unwarranted embarrassment to the brand.
The company lamented that despite repeated notices, some truckers with no affiliation to Dangote continue to brand their vehicles with its logo for personal or undisclosed motives.
In several cases, vehicles falsely identified as belonging to Dangote have been implicated in accidents and criminal activities.
