Dangote reveals how he withdrew $10 million from bank just to look at it.

Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote says he withdrew $10 million just to look at it and convince himself that he is rich.

Speaking at the Mo Ibrahim governance weekend ongoing in Abidjan, Dangote said he knew he was rich on paper, but had to find out to convince himself that he was indeed rich.

To do this, the multi-billionaire said he drove to a bank, withdrew $10 million, took it home, put it on his bed, looked at it, and returned it back to the bank the following day.

“The way it is that when you first start business, your target is to make your first million. Fine, I did that,” Dangote told Mo Ibrahim.

“After a year or so, I realised that I had much more, and I said ok, fine, all these numbers are just written numbers.

“One day I went to a bank, and at that time, there were no restrictions, and I wrote a cheque and cashed $10m from the bank and put it in the boot of my vehicle, and I went home and I opened it and I looked at $10m and I said ‘now I believe I have money’.”

Dangote added that he took it back to the bank the next day — after his mission was concluded.

The Nigerian businessman is has been the richest man in Africa for nearly a decade, following the expansion of his cement business, and the change of model to focus on local manufacturing.

According to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, Dangote is the 74th richest man in the world as of April 6, and he is valued at $16.4 billion.

Actress Zainab Balogun

”I honestly didn’t envision I would get married as soon as I did. For me It has always been about connections. I have never particularly dated guys for what they had or what they can give me. So when you meet someone that is the definition of kindness, of partnership, of love, of understanding, it just makes life easy. I think that is when you know somebody is for you, when it is not hard, when you don’t have to beg someone for attention, when you don’t have to communicate with you, they love what you do, they push you. It feels effortless.
So we were friends. We were introduced by a mutual friend, comedian Chigurl. She has got the spirit. I don’t know how many marriages Chioma has got under her belt. She was I have a guy that really likes you. We always joke and call you Slaynab. So we met, we had coffee. I wasn’t sure so I was like we should just be really good friends. We just built a really good bond and he became someone that I would talk to all the time” she said.

Actress Zainab Balogun

On the first meeting with his children, Zainab said,

”At first I was Aunty Zainab and I remember my husband saying they really like you. I was like how can you tell and he was like suddenly, they are performing for you. They normally don’t do that. Then we started spending time together, doing all the fun stuff”

Zainab Balogun recounted how the boys cried when they were told that their father was going to marry her.

”I will never ever forget when we told them that we were going to get married. It was such a special moment. I remember they were sitting down and I was recording, they didn’t know I was recording and I said to them that me and Daddy are thinking getting married.. so how would you feel if I became your mum and we got married? It was so weird they burst into tears. They were so happy and for me, it just made sense” she said

“Victoria Kimani was in order to call out Tiwa Savage” – Rapper Pryse

Budding Nigerian female rapper, Pryse has said in a now deleted tweet that Victoria Kimani was in order to call out Tiwa Savage in her #fvckchallenge.

Rapper Pryse

Pryse affirms that Tiwa Savage ‘blocked’ Victoria Kimani from a show and as such, she’s not a fan of women slit shaming other women.

She wrote in a tweet,

When a female artiste says to show promoters, “I will only perform at your show if I’m the only female artiste on the bill.” What do y’all call that? That shit happened. A calling out was in order
That being said, I don’t agree with women slut shaming other women. That sucks. Shoulda gone another way with the narrative.

Rapper Pryse

An insider who also spoke with KFN, affirms the above-mentioned claim by Pryse – according to the insider, the beef is simply because Tiwa Savage once questioned why popular show promoter, Paul Okoye would line Victoria Kimani and Emma Nyra on the same show he’s booking her for.

Read scoop below,

“It’s common knowledge that Tiwa savage has been blocking other female artists from shows in order to be the only woman on the bill …. Female artists are too afraid to speak out …. perhaps because of the backlash despite all of this …… all of the women are still thriving !! Victoria kimani personally didn’t want to say anything either because it’s water under the bridge and forgiveness is key …. the challenge went abit too far but the underlying facts are still the same …. it’s a horrible motive and a rotten agenda to try and paint a false image that there are no other Talented and deserving female artists in AFRICA

Kolade Johnson didn’t get immediate help after he was shot by SARS

New reports have unveiled another side of the tragic story of Kolade Johnson, victim of the fatal shooting in the Onipetesi area of Lagos, and it revealed he was not given immediate help after he got shot at by SARS operatives, and that is why he died.

The Cable News reports it thus:

The deceased, who was watching an English premiership match between Hotspur and Tottenham, left a bar in the area when he heard the cry for help.

It was around 5pm on Sunday, Johnson, like others in the bar, was enjoying the ongoing match when suddenly, a young lady jumped into the bar.
“Help me, kidnappers are taking my boyfriend,” she cried.

Immediately, the football fans sprang on their feet and at the scene was two men dragging Ismail, a known face in the neighborhood, into a bus. They wouldn’t know they were men of the police anti- cultism squad until the uniform of one of the men inside the bus gave this out.

Ismail, a video producer, wore dreadlocks and he had become the usual suspect for the policemen who judged him a criminal just because of the way he looked.

“The guy held on to the pole by the bar, resisting being dragged into the bus,” Esther, one of the bartenders who was on duty that Sunday evening, explained when TheCable visited.

“Then one man came out of the bus, asking people to leave. He started shouting, and threatening to shoot if the crowd wouldn’t go off them.”

The bar where Johnson spent his last moments on earth

Ismail isn’t a criminal, and so, Johnson and others who knew this wouldn’t allow the policemen have their way. They stayed, this time asking the gun-wielding men what exact offence Ismail committed.

As expected, the crowd dissolved after the policemen opened fire. But, it was strange to many who had taken cover inside Kingstine-Jo, the nearby bar where they had come to watch the live English premiership match, see Johnson still on the same spot.

“A bullet was already lodged in his body,” a taxi driver whose park was by the spot Johnson stood said.

“He was already bleeding, but many didn’t know.”

How would Johnson still be standing here? The policeman fired another shot. Again, a bullet found its way into his loin.

“That was when he fell, and started crawling,” the driver added.

When the dust had settled: Remains of the bonfire set up by aggrieved youth

NO IMMEDIATE HELP

Within the minutes, everywhere was covered with blood. Battling to survive, but there was no immediate help. While some witnesses blamed taxi drivers whose park was just beside the scene and could have offered to rush Johnson to the hospital, a driver argued they weren’t opened for work as it was a Sunday.

He must have lost much blood before a neighbor, driving past, stopped and Johnson, dripping of blood, got lifted into the car.

ABANDONED FOR HOURS

“They did not even rush at us to take him as an emergency,” Boluwade Awakan, Johnson’s stepbrother, told TheCable as he blamed officials the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital in Ikeja, where the victim was taken to after being shot.

“Nobody responded in time. One medical guy came and only touched his neck, and he went in, saying BID (brought in dead).

“They left his body on one stretcher and even when declared dead, the morgue refused to take his body in. They were requesting for one paper or the other.”

Returning to the hospital around 12am, the family was asked to make a N50,000 payment without which his body wouldn’t be admitted into the morgue.

Johnson’s body eventually found a space at the morgue around 2am.
