Bloomberg, Africa's richest man, Aliko Dangote, has lost more than a
third of his wealth this year alone. According to the article, Dangote
has lost 35% of his wealth which sums up to $5.4 billion. The losses are
attributed to commodities slump and the devaluation of the Naira in
June. Dangote's net worth is $9.9 billion, a 62% drop since January
2014, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
