How Dangote lost N141 billion on ‘Black Monday’

-

While other world billionaires lost tons of money last week, Aliko Dangote gained $79.2m (N15.6bn) from Thursday to Friday.

But his turn was yet to come, and the hit was harder than expected.

According to Bloomberg's Billionaires Index, Dangote lost N141 billion on 'Black Monday'.

The loss of huge fortune by Africa's richest man was as a result of the pressure on global markets, due to the Chinese economic crisis.

After Chinese stocks further nosedived on Monday, Dangote was reported to have lost $708.6 million (140 billion).

197 billionaires, including Dangote, lost billions of dollars in 24 hours, with only three of the world's top 200 billionaires making a gain on Black Monday.‎

There are moments when you feel so alone despite all your friends, times when you feel everybody hates you and times when you want to be left alone and people don't get it. There are those periods in your life when you cry for absolutely no reason, When nothing seems to be going right, and a lot of bad things are happening around you. There are times when your all is never enough,when you are often misunderstood, and when the one thing or person you put all your hope in let you down. Then there are times you are on top of the world,when everything is at your beck and call,when everything is seemingly perfect, when you don't have to worry about anything, when you have everything done your way, when you have all the attention you've ever craved and nothing absolutely nothing Is stressing you out.
