Sani Dangote is the deceased younger brother of Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote. He died four days ago in the U.S
The combined riches of Aliko Dangote, and those of the All Progressives Congress (APC) national leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, could have returned Sani Dangote back to life, Tinubu hinted during a condolence visit to Kano. But Money can’t give life, he says to the deceased’s uncle, Alhaji Aminu Dantata.
Sani Dangote died on November 15 in the U.S. after a brief illness.
Until his death, he was an executive director at the Dangote Group.
Tinubu described the death of Sani Dangote as a demonstration of God’s will, saying if money could have saved his life, they would have raised the amount.

Tinubu made the remarks when he visited Alhaji Aminu Alhassan Dantata, the patriarch of the Dantata and Dangote families, and maternal uncle to Sani Dangote.
Tinubu was accompanied to Dantata’s home by Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje of Kano State.
“It (death) has shown the demonstrations of Allah’s will. It is not money. If money can buy life, there is no worth that we will not pay.
“There is nothing anybody can do. But that is the way Allah has dictated. That is the way He has wished it. That is the way it has been written and no one has the power (to change it).
“Our presence here is to share the loss with you so that you can feel better. That you still have many children left. May God continue to spare your life and give you joy and keep you in good health and make you the father that you are. to make Kano great, to make Nigeria peaceful in your lifetime and grant Sani Dangote Aljanah Firdaus. That’s all we can ask for,” he said.
According to Daily Trust, Tinubu visited Aliko Dangote and the Emir of Kano, Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero.
The newspaper observed that Tinubu has been a regular visitor to Kano state in the last few months, with many interpreting the frequent visits as his 2023 strategy where he is expected to contest as president.
