David Adeleke, alias Davido, a Nigerian afrobeats singer, has revealed that Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, buys two cars every eight years.

The Omo Baba Olowo hitmaker stated this in a recent Forbes interview.

He discussed his family’s friendship with Dangote, saying that his millionaire father, Chief Adedeji Adeleke, is buddies with the world’s richest black man.

He said that every time they met, Dangote always counseled him to save his money.

Davido said, “Uncle Aliko [Dangote] is a very different kind of billionaire. Uncle Aliko buys like two cars every eight years. He’s a very disciplined and very different kind of billionaire.

“Every time I see him, he just says one thing, ‘Save your money!’. There’s nothing more he tells me, everytime save your money. He and my dad have been very close friends.

“And he [Dangote] has done well for us [Nigerians] back home. He made us a lot of industries. He just opened the biggest factory in Africa. That’s providing jobs.”
