THROW BACK: Davido reveals Dangote’s number one advice to him, says Africa’s richest man hasn’t bought a new car in 10 years
By Ishaya Ibrahim
David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has revealed the number one advice Africa’s richest man Aliko Dangote regularly gives to him – save your money.
An old interview with David on the Earn YourLeisure podcast in the United States, surfaced recently where Davido, whose family has longstanding ties to the Dangote business empire, said the Nigerian mogul’s consistent message to him over the years has never changed.
“Anytime I see uncle Aliko he always tells me, ‘David, save your money, save your money.’ He tells me the same thing since I’ve been a baby,” he said.
He added: “The crazy thing to me is just how normal they live their lives. I don’t think Dangote has bought a new car in 20 years. He drives a 2005 G-Wagon,” he said.
