Pascal Dozie died just a day to his 86th birthday, catapulting Nigeria into the cellphone era with a 20% stake in MTN Nigeria. The MTN Group, with plans to own a 60% stake, approached him in 1998 with the idea of setting up a network in the country, but he could only raise 20%.

"There’s also the looming question of succession. With most of these men in their 60s, who will carry the torch? Will their children or handpicked successors step up, or will a new wave of entrepreneurs emerge to challenge them?" https://t.co/5WLW2D69Lm

The debate sparked by @SirJarus’s post that no Arab alive is wealthier than Dangote only proves one thing: we don’t seem to grasp the scale of Dangote’s wealth. If materialistic ostentation were the measure of wealth, even Cubana Chief Priest or some social media riffraff

Even the Forbes-listed Nigerian billionaires believe the estimates are way short of the mark but valuation is based on the value of listed assets' audited evidence. Forbes Africa's founding editor Chris Bishop wrote extensively about the process in the book Africa's Billionaires.

Forbes, Bloomberg and other wealth tracking entities have possibly over 50 employees whose daily full-time job is tracking, researching, analysing and reporting wealth and investments of individuals, with access to almost all info you can think of. They produce and publish

The fact that it's not a commonality around here doesn't make it absurd. Leaders in the world over host entertainers. We have seen President Obama host rappers like Wale of Nigerian descent at the White House. We need to stop downplaying the role of entertainers in the ecosystem.

Our country is broke so a lot of people aren’t learning skills to master them. They are learning just enough to survive. It’s not about passion or any long-term growth. It’s about: “What’s trending?” “What’s paying right now?” “How can I enter the conversation fast fast?”

Contemporary legends like Tunde deserve a biopic!

"Competitive salary."😁 A lesson on why we need to give each other grace. It's tough out here for everyone. Recruiters and whatnot should be easy on job seekers doing their best possible to secure the available roles. There are no hard and fast rules about application procedures.

One day I sent an email to my cohost that its frustrating that I can't reach her via phone calls. Bro she hasn't had network on her 9mobile line for 3months. If I didn't witness this myself I'd say it's a lie. 3 months and no network is insane.
